Copied and pasted from on line tutorial but ...

Webix JS

This section of code:
$$(“mylist”).attachEvent(“onAfterSelect”, function(id){
$$(“myform”).setValues({
title: $$(“mylist”).getItem(id).title,
year: $$(“mylist”).getItem(id).year
});
});
copied and pasted from: http://webix.com/quick-start/introduction.html#!/9

is generating a Type Error: $$(…) is undefined in Chrome and in Firefox it’s
Type Error $$(“mylist”) is undefined. All the rest of the code is copied/pasted from the web site. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A second copy and paste of the code from the demo fared little better. It got as far as populating the title and date of a movie when selected from the right hand column but when an item was changed and the update button was selected the error was: Uncaught TypeError: $$(…).update is not a function
and the change is not saved to the list on the right.

Answered on my own: The numerous typing errors in the documentation was a hint. A good deal of searching showed that the code errors get changed in the on line code demo but not in the on line code documentation to the left of the demo.

The line in error in the documentation is:
$$(“mylist”).update(sel, item);
and the correction that was made in the code but not the documentation is:
$$(“mylist”).updateItem(sel, item);

Hope this helps someone.

One more correction for the documentation on the tutorial. The delete section for the custom delete function reads:
function delete_row() {
var id = $$(“mylist”).getSelected();

It should read:
function delete_row() {
var id = $$(“mylist”).getSelectedId();

Hope this helps someone.
