Help needed getting a form field value to be displayed in a different form field

Confluence User - 07 Sep, 2023

Hello Everyone.

I have a form that looks like this:

What I am trying to do is that when the final question in the top form is set to Yes then the same field values appear in the form below.

So, for example, in the screenshot above, I want the second form House Number to be 32 entered above as the ending question is set to Yes.

I understand that this can be done with hash variables, I used this format:

#binder.options.HR_ADDRESSDETAILS.house_number_id#

and I also tried this format #form.HR_ADDRESSDETAILS.village_id#

Neither of them worked, they just display the syntax as text in the field (as shown above) - what am I doing wrong?

Any help on this is much appreciated - thanks!

Thank you Bastiana , but I am not sure this meets my needs?

I know how to make a form section appear based on preceding values, but what I want to do is copy those values entered to appear in the form section that appears.

For example, if I have a form section called Address and the user sets the 'Is this your present address' select box to 'Yes' then I want a new form section to appear which contains the exact same values from the original Address form section - how can I do this?

Thanks so much for your help.
