var ga = new GlideAjax('HelloWorld');  //this is your script include name
ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'helloWorld');   //this is your function in script include
ga.addParam('sysparm_user_name', "Bob"); //parameter being passed
ga.getXML(HelloWorldParse);
 
function HelloWorldParse(response) {
  var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");
  alert(answer); } //you cvan return true/false from script include which will be recieved here.

Hi,

Hi, usually any action on the submit goes in onsubmit client script. However, if you try to look up data on the table, like GlideAjax, then onsubmit script has issues with Asynch calls, so either make the call synchronous OR write an Before Insert BR and do the same.

Also , your software should be a reference field, so if user has selected it , it should be present in the table. If its not a reference field, then this validation should happen on change of this field, as in when the user enters this detail and not on submit.

Hello Anurag,

I want to do this with the help of catalog client script and script include.

i wrote a lot of things, but if you are adamant on this(which is not the best way) then write an onsubmit client script and call the scripts include using GlideAjax, use getXML
