Customizing the dirty form alert popup

I

had a colleague come to me recently for help on a client issue. The customer wanted two things; the first was to set up the capability to warn users when they were navigating away from a modified form without saving it, but to do this only on selected forms rather than globally. The second was to modify the text included in the alert dialog to be whatever they wanted. In this post I’ll explain some of the options that ServiceNow provides in this area and how you can get even more flexibility and control over this behavior through scripting.

Attach an event listener to a related list button

ecently a colleague asked me for assistance with a customer request. The requirement was to pop up an information or alert message when a user clicked the ‘Edit’ button on the ‘Affected CIs’ related list. The alert message would give them some information or a warning, allow the user to confirm, and then continue on to the edit screen. ServiceNow gives you a lot of control over the behavior of some buttons with the configuration of UI actions. There are other buttons in the system, however, that you can’t easily control…including many related list buttons. In order to meet this requirement I created an ‘onLoad’ client script to attach an event listener and onclick function to the necessary button. Read on to see how it’s done!

ere are a couple of script examples you might find useful. Say you’ve got a multi-line text field or variable that contains a lot of text. To save time in scrolling (or clicking the ‘+’ icon next to the field) to see all of the text you just want to auto-expand the height of the field to fit its contents based on some other client-side trigger. Here are a couple of scripts that allow you to do that.
