How to get value from choice option from form

[TejasviR]

Hello Everyone,

I need your help, I need to access the value of the drop-down menu which is available of form, and if the user select ABC from drop-down menu than it will compare the location and if user select XYZ then it will not.

my code:

var ch = g_form.getValue('type_of');

if (ch == "ABC"){

if (g_form.getValue('loc1') == g_form.getValue('loc2')){

g_form.addErrorMessage('Location can't be same');

}retrun false;

}

Hi,

Can you tell me the issue you are facing with this code?

I see few issues in this code. 

1) Spelling mistake on return command

2) Return command be inside the if block.

3) You should add escape sequence before using single quotes inside a string

Hope this is written in on submit client script. So the code should be below:

function onSubmit() {
    var ch = g_form.getValue('type_of');
    if (ch == "ABC") {
        if (g_form.getValue('loc1') == g_form.getValue('loc2')) {
            g_form.addErrorMessage('Location can\'t be same ');
            return false;
        }
    }
}

Hello @palanikumar 

As I mentioned above if the user selects ABC from the drop-down menu, then my if block should be triggered else not.
