How to apply client script to "requested_for" field and not request item on Catalog Task form

[DevtoSME]

I'm trying to get a client script to apply to the 'requested_for' field but it has the same field name as the requested item field. is this what's preventing the script from working? 

I have applied this same script to the incident and change forms so it working for those. it needs to evaluate the user table and verify if a user has a priority selection.

any help would be appreciated.

Couple things first to help you get help with your questions:

- easier to past the screenshots right into the post so we can see without having to click on it to see it or download it.  I've had to click on it numerous times while trying to respond.

- TNT: Screenshots Help, but Code is Better

- TNT: And Formatted Code is Even Better

Now, did you copy that from your script?  If so, there's a typo (missing "i" in "item").

BUT, most importantly, it looks like you are asking about the same basic thing in 3 other posts, which is not very helpful:

- How to get field message to stay &display after save/ submit

- 'requested_for' field on catalog task not working for client script.

- Client script that will work for all tables extedned from task

Post you client script as text, others here can then possibly test in their instance.
