Hi,

How can we add a html web resource button at the top of a form besides the standard buttons (new,save etc). I know how a button can be added there by ribbon workbench. I want to know how this can be done at the top by a webresource, Thanks in advance

you can create custom buttons to open your Custom html page upon button click event.

Please add call the below JS fuction to your button.

function OpenMyHtml() {

window.open("yourorg.crm5.dynamics.com/.../Mycustomhtml.html");

}

Hope this helps

RE: Webresource button at top of form

Hi Bachchan,

please note the following method is highly UNSUPPORTED and is based on 365 ribbon.

You can reach your goal without webresource, simply adding javascript to form.

Proceed as follows:

1) Include jquery library in entity form (first item)

2) Include a js file library with the OnLoad method

3) Insert this code into OnLoad method:

var intervalcount = 0; var interval = setInterval(function(){ var myid = 'account|NoRelationship|Form|MyNewButton'; // <-- new button id var findel = window.top.document.getElementById(myid); // find new button if(findel != null) // return if found return;
// get source button var el = window.top.document.getElementById('account|NoRelationship|Form|Original.Button.Id'); var origbutton = $(el); var newbutton = origbutton.clone(myid); newbutton.attr('id', myid); newbutton.attr('title','My Button'); newbutton.attr('command',''); newbutton.insertAfter(origbutton); newbutton.on('click',function(){ alert("Hello!");}); // <-- put here your method newbutton.find('.ms-crm-CommandBar-Menu').text('My Button'); newbutton.find('.ms-crm-CommandBar-Menu').attr('command',''); if (intervalcount > 10) { clearInterval(interval); } }, 1000);

Please note:

1) setInterval is required because without button disappears after been added

2) after ten call, setinterval will be nulled

3) Hover effect doesnt works (probably is added runtime by ms code)

Please let me know.

You can only add buttons to the Command Bar by customizing the Ribbon Xml, which can be done easily by using Ribbon Workbench. You cannot add HTML Web Resources to the Command Bar.

You can have the buttons that you create call custom JavaScript Web Resources that will display contents from HTML Web Resources if that helps.
