EntityForm Dirty

Posted on by Birgit RD 2

Hi,

I got the request to show the submit button only when at least one field on the entity form in the portal has been changed.

Considering we have a lot of fields on the form, what would be a good option to hide the button, and show only when a change has been made?

I guess this this will involve javascript, but not sure about the exact implementation to make it work for every field.

    The reference is for CRM whereas I'm working on portals.

    I think I'll use following script as a base on the portal web page:

       $('form :input').change(function() {

               alert('change');

           });

    I still have to check as sometimes values are filled within code, which are not captured by the script.

    Hi Birgit,

    You could write the following lines of code to check if the form has been modified.

    var isDirty = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getIsDirty();
    if(isDirty)
    {
       //Show the Submit button
    }
    else
    {
       //Hide the Submit button
    }

    Hope this helps.

    i just disable button but you can change for hiding

    $(document).ready(function () {

       $("#UpdateButton").prop('disabled', true);

    });

    $("[onchange='setIsDirty(this.id);']").change(function() {

           $("#UpdateButton").prop('disabled', false);  

    });

    why not using a Web Form ? you could split the fields into your tabs
