Call an JavaScript action to enable or disable a button

Posted on by pavanmanideep 1,331

Hi,

 

    I am using "selectedItems" from the records selected in the Grid to enable a button in the sub grid,

if I included javascript to get the selectedItems in enable rules, on sub grid onload the javascript is firing and getting null reference to the "selectedItems" array returned.

 

Can we disable/enable the sub grid buttons through actions itself....becoz I need to get the selectedItems once I click on any subgrid record and not on grid load.

any alternate solution ?

    Yes, you can do that, you can have your js code, to check if there is any record selected only then run your custom logic.

    Thanks for your reply,

    Ok I am able to call custom js in actions to get the selectedItems once I click on a record in the grid, but after that I need to perform validation which type of activity it is,

    can I do that within the same js within the action?
