I have a dynamic grid which has 3 columns, and one column is a drop down.
I am trying to get value of drop down in each row and change value in third column.
I am trying to use document.getElementById("grid"); but it is returning null.
How to get grid object in my js?
Any way to manipulate value in grid cell?...

Hi foussenik,
Try the below expression on onChange of grid dropdownField. This may help you.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
var result=FormAPI.getControl("dropdown41","dropdown",this.index).val();
alert(result);

My server does not have the extension for FormAPI.getControl.
I would like to find the dom structure so I can use dom to manipulate the values.
Any other way because I don't have to FormAPI.getControl.

The FormAPI.getControl comes with the Advanced Form Utilities component available for download here in Appian Forum under the "Shared Components" record (forum.appian.com/.../all)- Libraries and Utilities once you deploy it you will be able to call this function if you put an import statement in the load event of your form:

importScript('/plugins/servlet/FormsExt.js');
