Javascript v9. Xrm.Page and ExecutionContext

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by hidoya 95 
Hello everybody,
As you probably know, the Xrm.Page command usage is slowly becoming obsolete.
That's why we wanted to adapt to the new orders.
I created a simple JS to hide a field with the condition that another field is not filled.
In the old model, the code works without problems.
But as soon as I swap Xrm.Page through ExecutionContext.getFormContext in the code I get a script error while executing.
What am I doing wrong ? can someone tell me what my mistake is and how does it work?

Here is the old code:

function versteckeFeld(){
if (Xrm.Page.getAttribute("salutation").getValue() == null)
{var name = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
name.setVisible(false);}
else
{var name = Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
name.setVisible(true);}
}

Here is the new code:

function versteckeFeld(){
if (ExecutionContext.getFormContext.getAttribute("salutation").getValue() == null)
{var name = ExecutionContext.getFormContext.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
name.setVisible(false);}
else
{var name = ExecutionContext.getFormContext.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
name.setVisible(true);}
}

Please Help me ^^

I thank you in advance

Many greetings :)

    Hi ,

    Try with this , the only thing you missed that you need to pass executionContext as parameter from onchange event handler.

        function versteckeFeld(executionContext){

        var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

        if (formContext.getAttribute("salutation").getValue() == null)
        {
            var name = formContext.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
            name.setVisible(false);
        }
        else 
        {
            var name = formContext.ui.controls.get("new_geschlecht");
            name.setVisible(true);
        }
    }

    See how to pass execution context.
