Java script in UI

Hi all

We are on-prem 9.1 and important i am not a developer but can read and understand the code, and happy to follow any guidance on the below issue.

We have the below script to highlight a field background colour when it has a specific value.

This code has always worked like a charm in classic interface but on UI it stopped working, after putting alerts i see that it never finds element value, and need your help to fix this:

code finds alert 1 and alert 3 but skipping alert 2

function Setcolour1() {

var a = Xrm.Page.getAttribute(/test_field1/).getValue();

if(a == 906010000)
{
alert(1);

var element = window.parent.document.getElementById(/test_field1/);

if (element) {

alert(2);
element.style.backgroundColor = /#FFCCCB/;
}
//window.parent.document.getElementById (/test_field1/).style.backgroundColor = /#FFCCCB/ ;

}

alert(3);

}

Thank you

Hi,

This may be due to the fact that the script was executed before the page element had finished loading, so the element was not found.
You can add a callback function that calls the entire function at regular intervals until the element is found and stops.

function Setcolour1() {

var a = Xrm.Page.getAttribute(/test_field1/).getValue();

if (a == 906010000) {

alert(1);

var element = window.top.document.getElementById(/test_field1/);

if (element) {

alert(2);

element.style.backgroundColor = /#FFCCCB/;

}else{

//Calls the entire function every 10 milliseconds until the element is found then stops.

setTimeout(Setcolour1,10)

}

//window.parent.document.getElementById (/test_field1/).style.backgroundColor = /#FFCCCB/ ;

}

alert(3);

}
