client script and Display value

[Nauman Chaudhry]

client script on incident

I am getting back state value as 7 when I use g_form.getValue('state')  but I need the display value. When I use

function onLoad() {

   //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

               var stateName = g_form.getDisplayValue('state');

   alert('My state is ' + stateName); 

}

I get back incident number I guess an object. How can I can I get the display value in client script.

hello @Nauman Chaudhry ,

try this 

var u_stateLabel = g_form.getOption('state',7).text;

[Nauman Chaudhry]

This works but in this case I need to define each state i guess. eg.

g_form.getOption('state',7).text;       //I get closed in the alert

g_form.getOption('state',6).text;   .........

why cant I get displayvalue regardless of defining it first
