Hi Amit,

You can use the client script for this.

write the On-Submit client script.

var shor_desc = g_form.getValue('short_description');

if(newValue == shor_desc )
{
alert('Cannot submit the form with same short description');
return false;
}

Script include will be used if you want to retrieve any of the values from the different table and set those values on any of the fields then we should use to glide-Ajax and script include.

In your current requirement there is no necessity of using the script include.

Thank you.

Hi Amit,

i would like to suggest that It is bad practice to use glide ajax with onSubmit Client Script if you are giving asynchronous call to the server.

because it may possible that your form will get submit untill server respond to your request.

Please mark if that helps you!!

Hi,

You can check with onChange of short_description give a ajax call and check whether short_description is already present or not and send value accordingly to client side true or false.and if it is present simply clear field value and display appropriate info message.

else you have to make synchronous ajax call .which will hamper performance. 

Please mark if that helps you!!
