My goal is to use preventDefault event, to use it I need to use context but I don't understand the way to use it. How to get the context... I get it as undefined, obviously I'm missing something msdn shows example :

ExecutionContextObj.getContext()

But I'm not sure how to get- ExecutionContextObj.. How to use it ?

Hi,

You need to call the preventDefault() from the context.

Refer this:

Hope this helps.

Hi ,

You just go to form properties and add your web resource, select onsave and click on Add function, you can see the options to pass execution context.

ReferenceError: 'context' is undefined, at OnLoad .... Should I change something in the OnLoad event ?

Refresh the Foem. It happens...sometimes crm loads the previous script from cacge.

You can also try incognito mode and check.

Hope this helps

Hi .

Make sure you have published your web resource and forms and re validate your function that you are getting context like below function . Its expected behavior and its should be work

function OnSave(context) { var saveEvent = context.getEventArgs(); saveEvent.preventDefault(); }

I reopened the page and refreshed it but the OnLoad exception still there:

this is my context code : it looks like context in OnLoad is a must..do I need another fix?

function OnSave(context) {

}

function OnLoad(){

isUserCanUseForm(context);

}

isUserCanUseForm(context){

var saveEvent = context.getEventArgs();

saveEvent.preventDefault();

Xrm.Page.ui.close();

}
