Hi Moodlers,

I'm currently trying to work out a Moodle bug (MDL-56022) and have stumbled across a minor Issue that I need help solving.  I've added a new element to an mform in the assignment module which has some sort of javascript auto-submit.  (When you make changes to any element in that form, it the form is automatically submitted and the page is reloaded.)  I cannot seem to figure out how to apply the same auto submit to my newly added form element. (If I turn Javascript off in my browser and view the page I get a submit button, so I can confirm that the code I have works otherwise)

My code is here: https://github.com/moodle/moodle/compare/master...sbourget:MDL-56022_m32v1?expand=1#diff-4ab0edc0983df466624d0483b075249cR90 and any help or guidance would be appreciated, as I'm not entirely sure where I should be looking to fix this.

Thanks!

The auto submit feature on this page is implemented with unique change listeners applied to each element. To make this work you'll need to add a change listener for the checkbox that you added.


Here is an example on what you'll need to add to mod/assign/module.js:

var downloadasfolderselement = Y.one('#id_downloadasfolders');
if (downloadasfolderselement) {
    downloadasfolderselement.on('change', function(e) {
        Y.one('form.gradingoptionsform').submit();
    });
}

It should be included in the M.mod_assign.init_grading_options function.
