pop up message when selecting a specific item from the list collector

[sonita]

I have a list collector , when selecting a specific item , a pop up message should be shown . I have an on-change client script to meet this requirement:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

          return;

    }

  if(newValue=="8444356d6fc00200512f5e354b3ee426")

{

  alert('MY MESSAGE');

}

}

this code works , but the problem is when selecting other items , this message will pop up again! I need the pop up to happen only once! and when that specific item is selected!

Hi Abhinay E,

Actually this is what I did and it works , BUT i wanna use alert so what can I write instead of :g_form.hideFieldMsg('applications', true);

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

          return;

    }

  var text='ECS Access Required for this application.Select "ECS" from collection if you currently do not have ECS Access';

  g_form.hideFieldMsg('applications', true);

  if(newValue=="8444356d6fc00200512f5e354b3ee426")//OCWA-OSCAR Claims Web Application

  {

g_form.showFieldMsg('applications',text,'info'); /// this is instead of alert

  }

Soni,

    you can add alert here, but it only works, if you only select "OCWA-OSCAR Claims Web Application" to the right bucket. Moreover you will get the alert when you touch any other values on the left bucket.

Thanks,

That's right , and the alert message is asking to select another item too, so when they want to select the 2nd item , it again pops up! but it shouldn't

Soni,

  I will recommend you to write an onSubmit and display alert and stop the user from ordering the item, if he did not select the other item. What is the sys_id of the other item you want user to select?

Thanks,

Hi Abhinay E,

actually I decided to use Macro instead of pop up box , and thta works fine , and the business approved it. thanks for your help again.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

    /*if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

          return;

    }*/

  var text='ECS Access Required for this application.Select "ECS" from collection if you currently do not have ECS Access';

  g_form.setDisplay('macro_alert', false);

  if(newValue.toString().indexOf("8444356d6fc00200512f5e354b3ee426")>-1)//OCWA-OSCAR Claims Web Application

  {

  g_form.setDisplay('macro_alert', true);

  }

  else if((newValue!="8444356d6fc00200512f5e354b3ee426") )

  {

  g_form.setDisplay('macro_alert', false);

  }

}
