Hi Emanuela,

What do you mean by "closing"? 

It's in a popup and you want to close the popup? It's not a popup and you want to be redirected to another screen? Or you want to make it disabled? Or you just don't want to be possible to save the record in the entity after x seconds?

Cheers,

José

Hi Emanuela,

A easy way to do that is to use the window setTimeout() method, simply add the runJavaScript action to your screen preparation with this method.

The setTimeout() method calls a function or evaluates an expression after a specified number of milliseconds. So all you need to do is define a function to redirect the user to a new screen and the milliseconds.

For more information see here.

Best Regards,

Hi Emanuela

You can run the script below and it should work:

"setTimeout(function(){ window.close(); }, 5000);"

In your Script you are missing the quotation marks and I think your function is also incorrect.

Edit -  did not noticed that you where adding the JS to the screen, I thought you where doing as I suggested... please do as below its more simple:

If you want to add the JS to the screen you need to wrap it on a function, to call later on. 

Best Regards,

I follow your suggestion:

but in my wescreen detailfeedback where shall I put this one?

thanks

Emanuela,

The RunJavaScript should be put in the Preparation.

Cheers.

P.S:

The user can inspect the page and disable the timer...

Hello Emanuela.

You can make the function called by the timer to click in a hidden link that navigates to the other screen, for example.

But as this is being done client side, the user will always be able to change it.

Hi Emanuela,

You can also do this in javascript:

"setTimeout(function(){ location='<url of the homepage>'; }, 5000);"

Replace the <url of the homepage> with the url that you want.

And as Eduardo has said, anybody can tamper with the javascript, so also check in the Screen Action of the submit button if 30 seconds (since the preparation was executed) have already passed or not.

Cheers,

José
