How to keep SpModal window open if fields are empty?

[Maxwell3]

Hello,

I am using spModal.open to open a custom widget from a catalog client script. The widget is used to update the catalog item variables. 

If the fields are empty, I would like the spModal window to stay open when the user clicks 'ok'.

I am able to display an Alert message through the catalog client script if the fields are empty but the modal window closes after the message is displayed.

Is there a way to keep the modal window open?

When the user click ok on the alert message the modal window is goes away.

Hello,

Please see this thread for assistance: https://community.servicenow.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=e10cb918dbb35c50a08a1ea66896...

Essentially, when the user clicks the OK button...that is when your script runs. So in this workaround presented, you would evaluate and if no response per your liking, you can re-trigger the modal window again.

You may want to consider using: $uibModal instead for more features/functionality if you don't like the approach mentioned above.
