Suggestion Element JavaScript options

[EUR-Webmaster]

I use the element JavaScript to show/hide a elements based on the value of another (dropdown) element.

Currently 3 javascripts events are needed for each element that you want to be dynamic:

1. on load
2. on change, to hide
3. on change, to show it again

I have some elements with 16 javascripts which are hard to manage because of the long list, which is also not sortable

ideas to make it easier to manage the javascripts:

• Event ‘on change and load’ to combine 1 and 2
• 'Else' function to combine 2 and 3.
• Option to sort the javascripts (maybe this is a joomla fieldset option?)

I know using the 'Javascripts Code' field is probably also an option for the more technical user.

For complex JS it's better to use a file.
Easier to manage, much easier to debug.
