If anyone<br>> can verify this, please let me know.<br>> <br>> Summary: When you loop through the tables in the document, the ObjectValid()<br>> function returns true for each table as expected. However, when you get a<br>> list of tables using GetText(), the ObjectValid() function returns false for<br>> each table. This is a problem, because child objects of the table also<br>> return false. This is a serious problem because you can't, for example, loop<br>> through all of the cells in the table, because ObjectValid() is false for<br>> each cell.<br>> <br>> Here is an example that illustrates the problem. Open a new FrameMaker<br>> document and insert 2 or 3 tables in the main flow. Then run the code below<br>> and look at the JavaScript Console.<br>> <br>> var doc = app.ActiveDoc;<br>> <br>> // Loop through all of the tables in the document.<br>> var tbl = doc.FirstTblInDoc;<br>> while (tbl.ObjectValid()) {<br>> $.writeln("Loop through doc tables: " + tbl.ObjectValid());<br>> tbl = tbl.NextTblInDoc;<br>> } <br>> <br>> // Get a list of tables in the document's main flow.<br>> var flow = doc.MainFlowInDoc;<br>> var textItems = flow.GetText(Constants.FTI_TblAnchor);<br>> for (var i = 0; i < textItems.len; i += 1) {<br>> tbl = textItems[i].obj;<br>> $.writeln("Loop through main flow tables: " + tbl.ObjectValid());<br>> }<br>> <br>> Rick Quatro<br>> Carmen Publishing Inc.<br>> 585-659-8267<br>> rick@frameexpert.com<br>> <br>> FrameMaker 10 ExtendScript eSeminar<br>> May 26, 2011, 10:00 AM Pacific<br>> http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/event/index.cfm?event=detail&id=1751822&loc=en_<br>> us<br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
