How can I add Javascript code to a Luci model page?

[rubo77]

Maybe you can add a tutorial page for how to enhance your interface files with javascript code?

Maybe you can help here too: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24864265/add-javascript-in-openwrt-luci-interface

I would like to add a javascript in the gluon webinterface So i you enter a pair of coordinates into one the latitude input field, the logitute part is automatically moved to the other input field.

I found out: you can add some custom javascript in the view for that model.

But I guess, there is a better solution for that?

Yes, you can add custom java-script for the view. Or you can change the "template" attribute of an object to point at a custom template. For a few good examples of this check out the one off classes defined at the bottom of the cbi.lua file.

Oh and BTW, this would look something like this in the model.

custom_java_script = section:option(DummyValue "none")
custom_java_script.template = "path/to/javascript.js"

custom_html = section:option(DummyValue "none")
custom_html.template = "path/to/html/file.htm"
