Good afternoon,

I would like to color a label of a field in the crm 2016 On Line

Document.getElementById ("field_c"). Style.backgroundColor = 'red';

But it's giving the style can not be supported.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to color the label in CRM 2016 OnLine with Java Script?

Tank You.

Unfortunately there is no OOB or supported way to color labels on Dynamics CRM

I'd thought getElementById was not supported, per MS in the SDK but they also show examples using it:

For most script development work outside of Microsoft Dynamics 365, developers may be accustomed to referring to page elements by using the document.getElementById method. For Microsoft Dynamics 365 form scripts this method is not supported. It is important to recognize that the attribute stores the data and the control is simply the presentation of the attribute in the form. For controls bound to attributes you may need to adjust the way you are accustomed to accessing data in the form.

Ricardo,

It's not supported (and I will not recommend to use that approach) but you can try following:

window.parent.document.getElementById("field_c").style.backgroundColor = "red";

More details Ricardo. CRM 2015 introduced the new form rendering engine for better performance but a byproduct was that now no text or page color customizations are supported. Have to wait for MS to add this to supported functionality or use legacy rendering engine which is much slower. See for details:

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;

}

Please mark my answer.
