form.addButton onclick script
Just want to confirm something on the form.addButton function. The third parameter for the onclick JS script. What are the specific limitations to that?
Typically, I've used it for redirection to either another record or Suitelet via document.location or window.open. However, I want to run a function that performs some logic, updates a record, and then redirects.
I've tried the syntax (note this is for View mode only):
form.addButton('custpagemybutton', 'Button Name', 'functionName()') function functionName() { Perform calculations Update record(s) Redirect to another page }I received an object not found error. Assuming the onclick script could not find the function in the page, I simply tested using an nlapi function for the onclick script and got the same error.
