g_form.setValue('box',true); doesn't work on service portal

[sonita]

This code is perfectly fine on Try it , but doesn't work on service portal

variable 'box' is a checkbox 

g_form.setValue('box',true);   doesn't work on service portal 

I even selected UI type to be 'All' ; but still doesn't work on portal.

Even onchange client script also working for me.

use 

g_form.setValue('box','true');

Try using true as a string like 'true' like Rakhy suggests. Servicenow sometime struggles with true/false being a string and not a boolean value.

You're absolutely  right. Unfortunately I can't mark two answers as correct answer.

g_from.setValue('box','true'); ---> it works as expected
