How to set the selected value or text of choice field

[Ankit18]

Hi,

I am using a client script to populate the choice options using below code.

g_form.clearOptions("reason");
g_form.addOption("reason", "", "Please Select One");
for (index = 0; index < newJSOnObject.length; ++index)
{
g_form.addOption("reason", newJSOnObject[index].ReasonCode, newJSOnObject[index].Reason);
}

g_form.setValue("reason", "10");

I need to set the selected value of this choice field and I tried to use g_form.setvalue to set the default selected value of choice option but it did not work.

I would appreciate if anyone can help me on this.

Thanks for the help!

That should work as long as you have a string value of "10" as an option for that field.  You might try setting up a client script to output that value (and its type) and see if it all matches.

alert(g_form.getValue("reason") + " : " + typeof(g_form.getValue("reason"));
