JavaScript for hiding sections in Marketing List does not work

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hello,

I want to implement a JavaScript, which should hide a section within a tab in the Marketing Lists form.

To try to get this work, I made both sections in the form invisible. Also added it the JavaScript into the Form Properties / Event Handlers.

  • the "members section" is the default section by Microsoft
  • the "members_contacts" is my customized section
  • field "createdfromcode" is "Targeted At" in the form or "Marketing List Member Type" in the entity settings

The JavaScript basically should do:

  1. If the field Targeted At = Account, then show members section and hide members_contacts
  2. else Targeted At = Contact, then show members_contact section and hide members

But it doesn't work, when loading a Marketing List record, it only throws a "Script Error" message which is not every helpful.

What's wrong with that? Many thanks for any helpful advice!

function showHide() {

var createdfromcode =Xrm.Page.getAttribute("createdfromcode").getValue();

if (createdfromcode == Account) {
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members_contacts").setVisible(false);
}

else if (createdfromcode == Contact) {
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members_contacts").setVisible(true);
Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members").setVisible(false);
}

}

    Hi ,

    So that means the code above does not have any issue.

    I would suggest please close this thread by verifying answers and post your issue in different thread with error message and screenshot of the form properties . This is because the issue you are referencing is completely different with the subject.

    When you put proper subject it will helps others to find the issues /resolution quickly.

    I am using the same code, just only replacing the values for the optionset from text to digit.

    I dont have any javascript available or running in the web resource, this javascript for hide in marketing list is currently the only one.

    This error message throws, after loading a marketing list record and after it successfully hid a section.

    I don't know if it has something to do with the subgrids in the default members section. There are 3 default subgrids Accounts, Contacts and Leads. I think they are also scripted.

    I would suggest try to  debug your code to find out which line causing issue . You can also find the error details  in F12 debugger console .

    I don't think above code will cause your issue , the error is coming some different function.

    Do you have any other JS register in the web resource?

    BTW when this error you are getting?

    Thank you all,

    it worked by changing the getValue() from text to a digit value.

    But I still get this Script Error message from some reasons:

    One of the scripts for this record has caused an error. For more details, download the log file.

    @url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx line 158 > eval:1:1 RunHandlerInternal@url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx

    The log file looks like this:

    @aurl.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx line 158 > eval:1:1

RunHandlerInternal@url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx

RunHandlers@url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx

OnScriptTagLoaded@url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx

AppendScriptTag/scriptTag.onload/<@url.ofmycrm.com/.../ClientApiWrapper.aspx

    Any ideas what cause this?

    Hi,

    The "createdfromcode" field is an optionset field which having following options -

    Text                       Value

    ================

    Account                    1

    Contact                     2

    Lead                         4

    So whenever you are doing getValue() it will always return value instead of text. So in your code  you just need to replace the value instead of text like Contact/Account.

    Try to use following code instead:

    function showHide() {

    var createdfromcode =Xrm.Page.getAttribute("createdfromcode").getValue();

    if (createdfromcode == 1) {

    Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members").setVisible(true);

    Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members_contacts").setVisible(false);

    }

    else if (createdfromcode == 2) {

    Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members_contacts").setVisible(true);

    Xrm.Page.ui.tabs.get("Summary").sections.get("members").setVisible(false);

    }

    }

    Hi,

    Which version of CRM you are using?

    recently I worked on + button hide on subgrid with below code, check if you can get the control from parent.

    attaching code for referance,

    function HideAddButtonSubgrid() {

   var subGridCtrl = Xrm.Page.getControl("quotedetailsGrid");

  // Get the add button

   var addButton = window.parent.document.getElementById("quotedetailsGrid_addImageButtonImage");

   // Hide the button

   $($(addButton).parent().parent()[0]).hide()

}
