How to pass value from current page to DialogForm ?

[kambleneeta20]

Hi ,

I have used following code to open the dialog form, now how can I pass the current from value to Dialog form ? Please suggest? Thanks in advance.

UI Action code -> 

function publish() {
var dialogClass = window.GlideModal ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;
var gDialog = new GlideDialogForm('MM ITAM', 'pc_software_cat_item',dothis); //Provide dialog title and table name
gDialog.render();
}
//this is my callback function. All I am doing is taking the sys_id and using the setValue to place it in the caller_id field.
function dothis(action, sys_id, table, displayValue) {
g_form.setValue('product_catalog_item', sys_id);
}

hi, kambleneeta20@gmail.com

if need to pass values into the dialog from original form, in this case need to set a callback function to pass and set those values into dialog like this:

function publish() {
	var dialogClass = window.GlideModal ? GlideModal : GlideDialogWindow;
	var gDialog = new GlideDialogForm('MM ITAM', 'pc_software_cat_item',dothis); //Provide dialog title and table name
	
	gDialog.setLoadCallback(function(iframeDoc) {
		// To get the iframe: document.defaultView in non-IE, document.parentWindow in IE
		var dialogFrame = 'defaultView' in iframeDoc ? iframeDoc.defaultView : iframeDoc.parentWindow;
		dialogFrame.g_form.setValue('name', g_form.getValue('your_fieldName'));
	});
	gDialog.render();
}
