Calling wrong web-Resources

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

Recently i faced an issues where my js function calling wrong web resources.

Well i have(wbr1,wbr2) two web resources with the same function name(call_wbr()) i have registered the function only for wbr1 during onload but it calling the function present in wbr2. Even though i have the registered for the right one it still call the wrong web-resources.

i cant remove the wbr2 from the library because it is used in the form,and if i try change the function name which  difficult to find and replace for all form.

So how can i resolve this?

    Hello,

    When you add multiple script libraries (webresources) to a form, they will all be loaded into the form's scripting environment equally. Even if you don't register any event handlers (like onload) the script will still be loaded.

    If you have any function names that are the same, across multiple scripts (webresources), this will always be an issue, because all the scripts will be loaded and in the form, it can now not correctly distinguish which function it should call, so it calls the last one loaded.

    This is more of a JavaScript issue, rather than a Dynamics 365 (CRM) one, in JavaScript , within the same scope, you can't have multiple functions with the same name, because the last one loaded will overwrite the first one loaded.

    You can try swapping the order of your script libraries, how they are loaded, to make sure that 'wbr1' is loaded last, so it's method will be the winner and overwrite the one from 'wbr2' - this is not really a long term solution but, might help you right now.

    ----

    For the long term, I really recommend that you make your function names unique, across your scripts. Consider using JavaScript namespaces, to ensure that there are no collisions between your function names or worse... between your function names and the function names of another solution.

    Namespaces in JavaScript (roughly) work like this - they isolate your code from all the other code:

     // Create the namespace if it doesn't exist, or keep the existing one:
var MyCompany = MyCompany || {};

MyCompany.my_function = function() {
   // Your Function Code
};

MyCompany.my_function2 = function() {
   // Your Function Code
};

    Then in your form, you can register your onload like this:

    Hope this helps you :-)
