How to stop Infinite loop onLoad with view list?

[Peter Tran2]

I have create new client script to switch view base on title field on sys_user table. But it seem switch infinite loop view list not specific view base on condition

How can I stop infinite load

below my script:

function onLoad() {

var employee = g_form.getReference('u_employee_name');

if(employee.title == 'Employee' || employee.title == 'Supervisor'){

switchView('section','u_incident_log','basic_view');

}

else if(employee.title == 'Manager') {

switchView('section','u_incident_log','Self_service');

}

else if(employee.title == 'Site Mgr' || employee.title == 'Vice President') {

switchView('section','u_incident_log','site_mgr_vp');

}

else{

switchView('section','u_incident_log','');

}

}

Hi Peter,

Not sure what you are after here. But the switchView functionality for for switching a view for a modal. Doesn't really seem to be the functionality here you are after.

Hi Peter,

When your onload script executes, the switchView() function will re-load/referesh the form while switching the view, this results in your onLoad script to execute again and this behavior causes infinite loop. To avoid this you can try using switchView() in onChange client script.

Yes, As your recommend I have changed OnChange but it seem not a best way to do because when I change value on field it pop up verify windows.but if you check function in isLoading it also happen the same with OnLoad.
