Can you tell me which case is failing? and how you are testing this code?

Hi Asif,

Here is my client script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

var pattern =/^[0-9-+()]{1,20}$/;

if(!pattern.test(newValue)){

alert('Phone enter a valid Contact number');

g_form.setValue('Variable_name', '');

}
}

Thanks,

Hi,

I just tried with this code on incident table and hsort_description field and it seems to be working fine. Just verify in your code, if it is entering onchange or not. If entered, then check whether its entering the if conditon or not.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {
   if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
      return;
   }
	alert("test");
   //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
   var pattern =/^[0-9-+()]{1,20}$/;
   if(!pattern.test(newValue)){
     alert('Phone enter a valid Contact number');
     g_form.setValue('short_description', '');
   }
}

Mark the comment as a correct answer and also helpful once worked.
