Hi NaveenRaj,

In Traditional Web you can use one of these options to call a screen action from JS. And AFAIK you cannot trigger the screen actions from the Javascript property of the module.

One option is to use the FakeNotify web block from the RichWidgets module. This way you can use the following JS function to call the OnNotify screen action of the web block.

OsNotifyWidget('<FakeNotifyWidget>.Id', '<message>')

For more information check out this post.

An alternative, which I have not tried myself, is to use this Forge component to invoke web block events directly from JS. For more info check out this post and the instructions on how to use the component are on the Forge components' overview page.

Hope this helps.

Nordin

Hi Nordin Ahdi,

                   Thanks for the response. I used FakeNotifyWidget and used OsNotifyWidget(....) inside JavaScript in JavaScript property of webblock. Its not working. So am trying with that Forge Component.

OsNotifyWidget('<FakeNotifyWidget>.Id', '<message>')

Naveen

Hi Naveen,

Can you share an example OML with your implementation? I have used the FakeNotify widget in the past with success so I know for sure it works.

The steps are described in this post too.

Hi NaveennRaj if you want to call an action from the JS use this

$(".SpecifiClassToTheButtonYouWantToCall").click();

Add this class to a hidden button and the destination of this button is the action you need

Hi Naveen,

Please find a working example as an attachment. The below steps were followed:

• The FakeNotify web block from RichWidgets is dragged directly to the screen. 
• A name is given to that web block: "MyFakeNotifyWidget"
• A new screen action was created from the OnNotify destination of the web block: "OnFakeNotify"
• In the Preparation of the webscreen a RunJavascript action (from HTTPRequestHandler) was added with the following value in the script property:

  • "OsNotifyWidget('"+ MyFakeNotifyWidget.Id +"', 'A message from Javascript!')"

• Inside the OnFakeNotify screen action a Deprecated_NotifyGetMessage action (from System module) is used to retrieve the message "A message from Javascript!" sent from JS function OsNotifyWidget()
• A feedback message is used just after the Deprecated_NotifyGetMessage action the display a text and the retrieved message from JS.

Result: If you execute a request to that webscreen, a feedback message will be triggered directly with some text and the message sent from JS code.

Hope this helps!

Hi Naveen,

Might I just add that Carlos' solution is indeed a simple one, but it is not considered a best practice to add inline Javascript. This must be avoided as much as possible.
