Default Values for an HTML field.

Hi,

I have a requirement where a a set of fields needs to be added to our change management form in a 3 x 5 table. Because ServiceNow can only perform splits that allows for two columns at a time it was suggested that we create an HTML form and add the "table" within that field using HTML formatting.

I am having some trouble creating this HTML form within the our "high risk activities" field by default. I tried using a before business rule with the following script:


var high_level = '<table>
<tr>
<td>Header 1</td>
<td>Header 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Content 1</td>
<td>Content 2</td>
</tr>
</table>;'
current.u_high_level =high_level;
current.update();


But it returns an error or doesn't populate anything in the field. Would anyone be able to help? How do I create default HTML formatting for a field for every new record?

Thanks!

I'm going to assume that high risk activities is an html field.
When you create a variable, there is default value field. Put your html code in there.
Save the changes.
Create a new change record and you should see your html in the high risk activities field.
