The light bulb just went off for our super-genius at right — finally, it all makes sense to him. What makes sense, you ask? Why, code like this (which I used in my last postgr = this._get_real_gr(gr)...

The h.e.l.p Blog 4/8/11(here everybody learns plenty)I am sure you all missed me last week, but I am back and excited for this week's blog.Over the past two weeks among our other activities we have be...
On occasion in this blog, I've mentioned Script Includes (navigate to System Definition → Script Includes) and talked about classes using the prototype.js library. On the Service-now instance, JavaS...
Our confident — and definitely different — girl at right is doing just fine. Sometimes doing things differently in your JavaScript code can be a good thing, too. Consider this perfectly ordinary code ...
