g_form.showFieldMsg("start_date","Selected Date is in past, Select a valid date","info",true);

Hi,

Was that not happening before?

Actually, you know what...hmm...try clearing the field first THEN do your field message.

g_form.setValue('start_date', ''); // Setting the variable as empty
g_form.showFieldMsg('start_date', "Test 123", 'error');

Yea, you should be fine now to do more with it, info or error, etc.

I think it was basically because you were clearing the field AFTER the message which was probably happening about the same time and so it was causing a slight glitch there.

Please mark any other reply from others, as Helpful, if it was.

Take care!
