Hello all,

I am looking to write a javascript to change the color of any text field in CRM

Here is my javascript:

function ChangeBackgroundColor()
{
var revenue = window.parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("revenue").getValue();

if(revenue < 10000)
{
document.getElementById("websiteurl").style.backgroundColor = "Red";

}

}

It is throwing me an error saying "Cannot read property 'style' of null at ChangeBackgroundColor "

Thanks in advance.

This is not supported. However you can go to Settings-->Administration-->System Settings and change the use legacy form rendering to true. The you can use below

function ChangeBackgroundColor()

{

var revenue = window.parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("revenue").getValue();

if(revenue < 10000)

{

$("#websiteurl").css("background","red");

OR $("#websiteurl").attr("style","background:red;");

}

}

try this code

function ChangeBackgroundTextBox()

{

var job= Xrm.Page.data.entity.attributes.get(fieldname).getValue();

var result= job.fontcolor("green");

document.getElementById(fieldname).innerHTML = result;

}

With respect to Vikas Saxena

this way causes some side effects on some forms.

for example Create order on Activated quote will disappear.
