Script:

    }

if(newValue != oldValue)

{

var answer = confirm("The category field on the form have changed.\nDo you really want to save this record?");

if (answer == true) {

g_form.setValue('description','');

return true;

}

Added one line in the above code:

g_form.setValue('category',oldValue);

Final Code :

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading, isTemplate) {

   if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

           return;

   }

if(newValue != oldValue)

{

var answer = confirm("The category field on the form have changed.\nDo you really want to save this record?");

if (answer == true)

{

g_form.setValue('description','');

return true;

}

else

{

g_form.setValue('category',oldValue);

return false;

}

}
