Need help with removing an undefined

surya123 · ‎12-20-2017

Hi All

This is the script i am using. It gives a undefined at the beginning of the additional comments. Is there a way i can just remove the 1st word?

var comments= current.comments.getJournalEntry(-1);

var com=[];

var na = comments.split("\n\n"); //stores each entry into an array of strings

for (var i = 0; i < na.length; i++) {

com+= na[i] + "<br>";

}

It shows all correct but start with a undefined at beggining. can i do something to chop off that undefined?

see below new script with more control:

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_journal_field');

gr.addQuery('element','comments');

gr.addQuery('element_id',current.sys_id);

gr.query();

while(gr.next()){

gs.addInfoMessage('"'+gr.value+'" added by '+ gr.sys_created_by+' at '+gr.sys_created_on);

}

in while loo you can add your logic to create multi line variable and have it assigned to your new field in one go

Hi,

It seems like you're making a string, not an array. Hence, try setting:

var com = "";

instead and see if that does the trick.

Still I see the same issue.

Hello soni

why does it say "commentss" here var na1 = commentss.split("\n\n"); Please correct and lets see if it makes any difference.

Please mark my response as correct and helpful if it helped solved your question.
-Thanks
