Q

Compound fields may contain several HTML elements. This method is generally not necessary as there are built-in methods that use the fields on a form.

If the field is a reference field and the control is a choice list, getControl() may not return a control as expected. In this case, use sys_select…

Q

Returns the GlideRecord for a specified field in Client Script

A

g_form.getReference(String fieldName, Function callBack)

If a callback function is present, this routine runs asynchronously. The browser (and script) processing continues normally until the server returns the reference value, at which time, the callback function is invoked. If a callback function is not present, this routine runs synchronously and processing halts (causing the browser to appear to hang) while waiting on a server response.

Important: It is strongly recommended that you use a callback function.
Callback function support for ServiceCatalogForm.getReference is available.

26
Q

Returns an array of related lists from the current form in the order in which they appear on that form in Client Script

A

g_form.getRelatedListNames()

27

g_form.getUniqueValue()

31
Q

Returns the value of the specified form field in Client Script

A

g_form.getValue(String fieldName)

This method also supports getting values from a multi-row variable set (MRVS). To obtain data from fields within an MRVS, you must first use JSON.parse(getValue(‘’)) to obtain the MRVS array, and then use indexing to access the fields within the row objects. For more details, see the code example below.

32

g_form.hideAllFieldMsgs()

33
Q

52
Q

Sets the value of a specified form field to the passed in value in Client Script

A

g_form.setValue(String fieldName, String value)

This method also supports setting values in a multi-row variable set (MRVS). You must first use JSON.parse(getValue(‘’)) to obtain the MRVS array and then use indexing to update the fields within the row objects. Once all values are updated in the MRVS, use the setValue() method to save the updated MRVS array.

53
Q

Sets the value of a specified form field to the value of a specified display value in a reference record in Client Script

g_form.setValue(String fieldName, String value, String displayValue)

NOTE: To improve performance by preventing a round trip when setting the value for a reference field, use this method, not setValue(fieldName, value). When setting multiple reference values for a list collector field, pass arrays in the value and displayValue parameters.

Q

Displays or hides the field in Client Script

A

g_form.setVisible(String fieldName, Boolean display)
