Hi!

I need to parse value from DOM element. So I try this:

$amount_payable_text = _getText( _cell(1, _in ( _row("amount_payable") )) );
$amount_payable = amount_payable_text.match(/[0-9.]+/);

_alert($amount_payable_text) shows that text is ok.
_alert($amount_payable) - shows "recursive_access".

What I do wrong?

    amount_payable_text.match(/[0-9.]+/);

    should have been

    $amount_payable_text.match(/[0-9.]+/);

    ?

    Yes, thats just my typo when I write that post. In code that written correct. Problem still not solved.
    Looks like it does not recognize $amount_payable_text as String object.

    Hi tower120,

    Can you try using this:

    $amount_payable = "" + $amount_payable_text.match(/[0-9.]+/);

    instead of

    $amount_payable = amount_payable_text.match(/[0-9.]+/);

    Let me know if this solves your issue.

    Regards
    Sumitra
