UPDATED: I've added some code for a few pages that are opened in a different tab/window (Workflow Editor, BSM/Schema Maps, etc...).
There are already a number of scripts out there to dynamically change the title of the browser's window/tab to match the current record you are looking at, but I thought I'd add my own anyways 🙂
I've added a little bit of logic to verify if the record is a new one, or you are in a Search form, etc... You can also set the default title for all the other windows and it strips out the "undefined" string if the name, number or short_description fields are not on the form. To use it, just create a new UI Script, check the Active and Global checkboxes and drop in the following code:
addLoadEvent(u_setCustomTitle);
function u_setCustomTitle(){
var title = "Custom Window Title";
var windowName = top.window.name.toLowerCase();
switch (windowName) {
case "workflow":
title="Workflow Editor";
break;
case "show_workflow_context":
title = "Running Workflow(s)";
break;
case "super_bsm_map":
title = "BSM Map";
break;
case "super_schema":
title = "Schema Map";
break;
default:
try {
var name = g_form.getValue("name").replace("undefined","");
var number = g_form.getValue("number").replace("undefined","");
var shortDescription = g_form.getValue("short_description").replace("undefined","");
if ($("sysverb_query") != undefined) {
title = "Search";
} else if (g_form.isNewRecord()) {
title = "New Record";
} else if (name) {
title = name;
} else if (number && shortDescription) {
title = number + " - " + shortDescription;
} else if (number) {
title = number;
} else if (shortDescription) {
title = shortDescription;
}
} catch(e) {}
}
top.document.title = title;
}
I've also attached an xml file that you can just import as well.
