Javascript to convert case

Posted on by Cyclefitness

I'm attempting to use this Javascript, found from another post on this forum:

function UpperCaseField()

{

var Name=Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").getValue();

Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").setValue(toTitleCase(Name));

}

function toTitleCase(str)

{

return str.replace(/\w\S*/g, function(txt){return txt.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + txt.substr(1).toLowerCase();});

}

I have it on the on change event of a field named ist_name. It is configured like this:

And I get this error on loading the form:

What am I doing wrong?

RE: Javascript to convert case

function upperCaseField(executionContext) {

var field = executionContext.getEventSource()

if (field.getValue() == null) {

return;

}

field.setValue(field.getValue().toUpperCase());

}

Hmm. You said that, but that is not the code you presented. Maybe you should steal better code next time. :)

I'll see if I can't fix it tomorrow.

Thanks, everyone. And thanks for the wrap-up, Mitch. I did, however, want all UPPERCASE. Can you modify your post to mention Debra wanted uppercase?. ;-)

Hi Debra,

This should tie it all together:

RE: Javascript to convert case

Hi Debra,

No need ()
If you want to add another field, for robust solution, I suggest you use this method to auto-attach the onevent trigger:

Xrm.Page.getAttribute(arg).addOnChange([function reference])
msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg334409.aspx

So example:
Xrm.Page.getAttribute("field1").addOnChange(UpperCaseField)

Hope this helps.
Thanks

Hi Raz:

I guess it should, but then how can I reuse it on other fields?

Hi Debra,

When you call the function from CRM (your first screenshot) you do not need to () after the function name.

So, in your case the value you put in the Function field is UpperCaseField not UpperCaseField()

RE: Javascript to convert case

Hi Debra shouldnt your variable be 'ist_name' instead of 'name'?
