I have a requirement to add a custom button to dynamics CRM form (in the body) and not the header using ribbon workbench.

The existing customization is on dynamics 2011 , its unsupported and doesn't work for dynamics CRM, web-resources might be a good idea but they take lots of space , I want the button just next to a filed.

The existing java-script code is below

CustomSearchButton = function () 
    {
    var atrribute = document.getElementById("attribute_c").parentNode;
    AddButtonToRow(atrribute , "Custom Search", 150, CustomSearchFunction); 
    };

The attribute is the schema name of the field.

Also some other deprecated methods from 2011 like AttachRefreshButtonToTextboxField() can this still be achieved in Dynamics 365

You will have to create a web resource & add the button & related code within that HTML, after that you can go to the form editor & insert the web resource on the page in specific section you want & that should help you achieve your requirement

hope it helps

You can change the formatting from the web resource properties. You can select the row layout from there.

Thanks :)

So before I mark yours as the answer and hint on the deprecated java-scripts function from 2011

I guess dynamics change its interface from DOM.

<html>

<button >Click me</button>
