Hi, again,

It seems that now it's running, i don't know why. I only rewrite the code with another variable names,… but the structure is the same.

Thank you. Raquel.

Hi, again,

If Else statement runs sometimes, i don't know what is the problem. The same script is launched two times, at the first time it runs, at the second one, no. Is ther a poltergeist in Alfresco? I think it's a big bug.

Regards. Raquel.

I would be very surprised if there was an issue with if/else in javascript.

One thing you can try is to use undefined instead of null (but be careful which equality operator you use).

See http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference:Global_Properties:undefined

I think that i found my error: sometimes the object is use was a space and sometimes a document, so that was the problem. I thought that i will become crazy.

Thank you a lot. Raquel.
