Autofill of Age based on Date of Birth

Hi Friends,

I have a requirement to auto populate the age based on date of birth.I have created a script include and catalog client script for this but the age is not auto populating.while checking the script Include in background script it is working, I think the problem is with client script, can anyone please check and advise us where I am making mistake

Script Include:

var Agescript = Class.create();
Agescript.prototype = {
checkage: function() {
var dob = this.getParameter(sysparam_id);//get data from catalog
var today = new GlideDateTime(gs.nowDateTime());
var todayyear = today.getYearLocalTime();
var bday = new GlideDateTime(dob.tostring());
var bdayyear = bday.getYearLocalTime();
var age = todayyear - bdayyear;
return age;

},

type: 'Agescript'
};

 

Client Script:

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

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
var ga = new GlideAjax('Agescript');
ga.addparam('sysparam_name','checkage');
ga.addParam('sysparam_id',g_form.getValue('dob'));
ga.getXML(Age);
function Age(response){
var ages = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("Age");
alert("Age is" + ages);
g_form.setValue('age',Age);
}
}

Hi 

in the below image

in the script below on line 2

Agescript.prototype should be like this. there is a space seen in your line.

I recommend you to create a new client callable Script include .

Apart from replacing 'sysparam' with 'sysparm', I dont see anything that find cause an issue with the code. Are you triggering the client script on the correct field?

Also the in ga.addparam('sysparam_name','checkage') you should make the 'p' in addparam uppercase

Hi Moy,

 

Thanks for your reply, after replacing also its not working.

Hi 

Above script include is not client callable.

Please create a new Script include and mark the client callable checkbox ticked.

 

I hope that will solve your problem.

 

Mark Correct if it helps.

Warm Regards,
