Posted on by Jeeva Ganeshan 395

Hi folks,

I have created one html page then added in web resource and published. it is in Quote form.

In this HTML i have one text box.

if i add  "ClientGlobalContext.js.aspx" library in that HTML then the text box backspace is not working

<script type="text/javascript"  src="ClientGlobalContext.js.aspx"></script>

and moreover i want to use this "ClientGlobalContext" library to open a custom lookup window

but backspace is working if i remove that "ClientGlobalContext" library.

 

please help!

    Yeah this is one of those weird behaviors that would be good to be fixed by Microsoft.  I found that I actually had no reason to be adding this library in the first place for my functionality and I added it as an assumed need.  According to MSDN you only really need this to get the context if your web resource doesn't exist on a form and cannot leverage Xrm.Page.context

    2 years later and although this bug is still present, we've seem to have found the cause of the issue! It's reproducable when you have an input element with the attribute type="search". Simply change the type of your input element (e.g. to "text") and the backspace is working again!

    I have been able to resolve this issue by running the following code on DOM ready:

    if (window.Sys && window.Sys.UI && window.Sys.UI.DomEvent && window.Sys.UI.DomEvent.prototype) {
  window.Sys.UI.DomEvent.prototype.preventDefault  = function() { };
  window.Sys.UI.DomEvent.prototype.stopPropagation = function() { };
}


    This will allow you to still use the functions that ClientGlobalContext provides, while keeping it from interfering with your key and mouse events.

    Hi Jeeva, This is known issue, I have encountered this multiple times, it happens when your text box is not of type - text. If your HTML input type is search, number or anything else, backspace does not work. If your HTML input type is Text, then Backspace will work. Please try with input type text, and let us know if it works
