Client Script Control

[user_ms]

If there are two Client Scripts below:

- Client Script 1

  Set a value to clumn_a

- Client Script 2

  Field Name :clumn_a

  onChange

  Set a value to clumn_b

I want to stop Client Script 2 from running when the value of clumn_a is changed in Client Script 1.

Is there any way to do this?

On first evaluation/thought, have a hidden intermediate boolean variable (clumn_a_changed) which is set to "true" if the value is set to "clumn_a" in client script 1 and start the second client script with an "if (clumn_a_changed == false) { script_stuff; } else { return; }" type of statement

what are you triggering your client script(s) on? if they trigger on the same thing, I think you'll need to set an order (I believe this is possible)

Thank you for your answer.

The trigger for Client Script 1 is clumn_c, and the trigger for Client Script 2 is clumn_a, which was set in Client Script 1.

I will try to use intermediate boolean variable.

glad I could help. just be sure to add the field to your form as a hidden field, you cannot just create the custom field on the table and have it accessible to a client script, it needs to be on the form to be set and referenced.

why not merge both the client scripts and set value in column b?
