Bringing up an alert with onChange client script

[davilu]

I have two integer fields on a form and want an alert to show up if the sum of those two fields exceeds 6000.  I am trying to do this with an onChange client script that looks like this:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
	if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
		return;
	}

	var a = parseInt(g_form.getValue('field1'));
	var b = parseInt(g_form.getValue('field2'));
	if(a+b > 6000) {
		alert('Total cannot exceed 6,000.');
	}
}

What do I need to change in the above code in order for this to work?  Thanks!

unless I am missing anything, your script looks fine to me. why don't you put some console.log statements in to check that you have good values for a and b.

console.log(a);

console.log(b);

and check your browser console for those results. are you getting good output there?

Hi davilu,

Please find below OnSubmit Client Script. It Working for me.

Code:

function onSubmit() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
var strt = parseInt(g_form.getValue('a'));
var end =parseInt( g_form.getValue('b'));
var C = strt + end;
g_form.setValue('c',C);
if(C > 6000) {
alert('Total cannot exceed 6,000.');
return false;
}
else
return true;
}

thanks raj! I used your code exactly and it still doesn't work.  our team is working in a scoped environment, not sure if that matters at all...

Have you created OnSubmit client Script...?

can you check all variable that you are passed in the client script ?

Thanks,
