Make variable set catalog script disable for one catalog item.

[prabhmeet]

Hi,

 I have a variable set which is being used in three catalog items. There is a client script in the variable set, that I want to disable for one of the catalog items. What script can I write so that the code does not work for one of the catalog items?

You could try adding an if statement around your block of code along the lines of: 

if(current != <catalog_sys_id>){

//your code block here

} 

The <catalog_sys_id> would be the sys_id for the catalog item you want to disable this code for.

Hi Prabh,

you can do following:

1) in the onLoad catalog client script get the URL

2) determine the sys id of the catalog item from the url parameter sysparm_id

if it is the one you are looking for then make all variables readonly

function onLoad(){

var ritmSysId = getParmVal('sysparm_id');

if(ritmSysId == '<sysId>'){

g_form.setReadonly('<variableName>', true);

}

}

function getParmVal(name){
    var url = document.URL.parseQuery();
    if(url[name]){
        return decodeURI(url[name]);
    }
    else{
        return;
    }
}

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

get the sys_id of the catalog item from the url and as Brian mentioned restrict the code from running if the sys_id matches to the one you are looking for.
