Update Form via javascript


Recommended Posts

Hi, See below the code which i've used on a web form submission successfully.  I've tested this on the Details page, it seems to work, however, the changes made on the Details page don't get written to the database table.

Any advise welcome..

<script>

// PREVENT SUBMIT UNLESS VALIDATED
document.addEventListener('BeforeFormSubmit', function(event) {
event.preventDefault();

//do something before submitting update

document.forms["caspioform"].submit();

});
</script>

Hi @Elderberg,

I would like to share a different approach, so instead of using a submit() function I have used the click() function on Submit button to mimic submit event.

Also, it is possible to use AppKey of the Datapage in order to submit the particular Datapage if more than one is deployed.

<script type="text/javascript">
document.addEventListener('BeforeFormSubmit', function (event) {
  
if (event.detail.appKey == 'XXXXXXXXXXXX') { 
  
event.preventDefault();  
  
//do smth before Submit
  
document.querySelector(`#Submit${event.detail.uniqueSuffix}`).click();
  
}

});
</script>

Hope it helps.

Regards,

vitaliksssss
