UI action Client and server script not running

[Snow Tomcal]

Hi, i'm trying to run a UI action that takes the variables from a requested item and opens a new request.

I am using both client and server script, but the server script isn't running. 

typeof window is not returning "undefined" and if I try to run my script without it it doesn't work also.

my script:

function onClick() {

var item = g_form.getParameter("sysparm_id");

g_navigation.open("URL/sp?id=sc_cat_item&sys_id="+item+"&sysparm_clone=true', "_blank");

if (typeof window == "undefined")

get_variables();

function get_variables(){

var variables = new GlideRecord('sc_item_option_mtom');

variables.addQuery('request_item', current.sys_id);

variables.query();

var variable_list = [];

while (variables.next()){

var dict = variables.sc_item_option.item_option_new;

var v = variables.request_item.variables[dict.name];

var o = {

'name' = dict.name;

'question' = dict.question_text;

'value' = v;}

if (o.value != ""){

variables_list.push(o);

}

}

gs.getSession.putClientData('variable_values', variable_list);

}

Can anyone help? 

Thanks

You need to have the line below in place to get the client side code calling the server side code in the UI action:

gsftSubmit(null, g_form.getFormElement(), 'action_name');

Thank you!!!

Did gsftSubmit() help you with your script above? Does it go as last line?What exactly you added here?
