Any Suggestion or Help.

Hi Abhay,

Add this in value field directly i.e. 1111 without double quotes

"javascript: " is used only when you want to execute some condition and if "javascript: " is used then this value field expects boolean true/false.

If the value field is evaluated to true then style is applied.

If the value field is evaluated to false then style will not be applied.

Hi,

This is an old post but i am posting here to help all the users who still have this requirement.

Please use 'g_form.getDisplayBox()' function. This is an existing ServiceNow function and can be very helpful in this situation.

ex - g_form.getDisplayBox(fieldName).setAttribute('style', 'color:red');

Replace 'fieldName' with your field's name and it will highlight that field value in red color.

Thanks,

Himani
