Client script to show an alert at certain choice list value?

[eliana_wise]

Hi,

I have wrote the onChange client script that I want an alert to pop up when the data protection type is   US, and apparently it doesn'y work. Can some one advise me on this?

Thanks

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate){

    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {

          return;

    }

var dtype = g_form.getValue('u_data_protection_type')   ;

if (dtype == 'u_dp_us' ) {

alert('Test');}}

because u_data_protection_type is reference field and hence you are getting sys_id.
