Hello all,
I need to manage the filling in of the controls, so I cannot use standard function UpdateData(). I found the discussion on this forum about function populateDynamicCtrl() which was avaliable in ibirls2.js file. But nobody told if there is any analogue of it in ibirls3.js.
I'll appreciate any help or may be somebody can send my the readable version of ibirls3.js?

ibirls3.js is just a javascript file, its all text. You should be able to read it.

You do. On the webserver is one, and there's another in your Dev Studio installation.

You should not call our functions directly. They are our source code and they may change between releases rendering your pages unable to run properly. There is a published API of functions starting with release 7702 that should be used.

From my perspective, understanding how and what the functions do assists in the development of whats needed.

I am happy that the API has been published, but cannot find the document in the 7.7.x list of documents.

Do you have a link to it ?

Thank you for your answer, I understand that these functions could be changed in next release. I would like just to have a look at ibrls3 source code.
