Change color on field label

[Steve42]

I have the following script that I want to use to change the label color on a field that's calculated by a business rule. 

Anyway Here is the code:

var labelcolor = g_form.getLabel('u_crequests.u_risk_rla');
	if ('u_risk_rla' == '1') {
	labelcolor.style.color = 'green';
	} else if ('u_risk_rla' == '2') {
		labelcolor.style.color = 'yellow';
	} else {
		labelcolor.style.color = 'red';
	}

It does not seem to be working.  I think I have the information correct.
I have also tried these not being strings for the u_risk_rla values and that didn't work either

Basically if the value of the field is 1 the label will read low and I want the label to be green and so on down the list.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi there,

I assume you are using this code in a Client Script, on the Platform UI, is that correct?

If so, try:
(untested, I know this should work for Incident, though didn't test on custom table)

	var u_risk_rla = g_form.getValue('u_risk_rla');
	
	var labelcolor = document.getElementById('label.u_crequests.u_risk_rla');
	if(u_risk_rla == 1) {
		labelcolor.style.color = 'green';
	} else if(u_risk_rla == 2) {
		labelcolor.style.color = 'yellow';
	} else {
		labelcolor.style.color = 'red';
	}

If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Kind regards,
Mark

I'll have to try it in a client script. I had it in with some other stuff but am going to break it out

Any luck with this? Or do we need to follow-up on this?

NO, it is not working for some reason,  I have tested it as a Client script/UI policy and nothing is working to change the color.  I can get it to sit as one color but not 3 based on the state of the RLA
