Restrict submission of catalog item if the url in the help text is not clicked

[RanjanRP]

Is there a way to prevent submitting a catalog item unless the user clicks a URL in the help text?

You can have this approach

1) create a hidden checkbox type variable and place it at the end of catalog form and hide it using UI policy

2) use variable of type Custom and create a widget to show that URL, in HTML of that anchor tag add onclick even and then update that hidden checkbox as true once link is clicked.

3) use onSubmit catalog client script and see if checkbox is true, if yes then allow submission, if not then stop submission

This is the widget syntax to set the variable from widget client controller

api.controller = function($scope) {

$scope.page.g_form.setValue('hiddenVariable', true);


});
