string default set by tcl expression

Mark-

I'm afraid that is not possible. I described why in a prior post (https://devcentral.f5.com/community/group/aft/2166295/asg/2032). The problem is that when Tcl is included in an APL statement, for example to construct the contents of a dropdown, the code is run prior to the web page rendering. In other words, by the time you see the page and are able to made a dropdown choice above, the code below has already been run.

It is possible to change the apparent default value of a field according to choices made above it in a template, but the method is a bit messy. You must create 2 APL fields and surround them with optionals, ie.:

choice use_https default "no" { "yes","no" }

optional ( use_https == "yes" ) {

string port_1 default 443

}

optional (use_https == "no" ) {

string port_2 default 80

}
