Hide button with onChange Client Script?

[Edwin Fuller]

I have the below script that is currently not working. I need to hide the "Complete Task" button if the state changes to any of the following. "-940", "-941", "-942", "-943". Can someone help me correct this script?

function onChange(){

      //If the incident type is 1,2,3

}

showCloseTaskButton('Convert to Request');

function showCloseTaskButton(button) {

      if(g_form.getValue('state' == -940) || g_form.getValue('state' == -941 || g_form.getValue('state' == -942) || g_form.getValue('state' == -943)){

              //show the 'Convert to Request'

              var items = $$('BUTTON').each(function(item){

                      if(item.innerHTML.indexOf('Complete Task') > -1){

                              item.show();

                      }

              });

      } }

Hi Harel - I received the following error using your code

function onChange(){

var state = g_form.getValue('state');      

if(state == '-940' || state == '-941' || state == '-942' || state == '-943'){  

$$('#task_completed')[0].hide();      

} else {      

$$('#task_completed')[0].show();      

} }

Hi Edwin,

I think you are missing a part of the script.

Try:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
     if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
           return;
     }
var state = g_form.getValue('state');     
if(state == '-940' || state == '-941' || state == '-942' || state == '-943'){ 
$$('#task_completed')[0].hide();     
} else {     
$$('#task_completed')[0].show();     
} 
}

I tested it on my incident form and it seems to work without a hitch.

If it is still a problem, where are you applying it on? Is it a custom form?

Still receiving the error and yes the update applies to a custom form within a scoped app

[oharel]

OK.

See this: Scoped Applications and Client Scripts: A Primer

$$ is inaccessible in scoped apps. Read through the part   What are the differences between a scoped Client Script and a global one?

- I think it might have a solution for you.

Hey Edwin,

You can better do this on the condition part of the button itself.

like :   (current.state != "-940") || (current.state != "-941") and so on.

post me your feedback
