In the following example we show a simple HTML page with an option set and a text box; via javascript, we manage the click on an 'Ok' button to return both the entered text and the chosen option value.
The HTML page could be opened from a ribbon button or in the way that better fit our needs. We show the code snippet to open the modal dialog, take and process the return.
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML
4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML Web Resource</title>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="../Scripts/jquery_1.9.0.js"></script>
src="../Scripts/jquery_1.9.0.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var selectedOption;
$('#selectmenu').change(function () {
// assign the value to variable
selectedOption = $('#selectmenu :selected').val();
});
$('#btnOk').click(function () {
var result = {};
result.EnteredText = $('#textbox').val();
result.SelectedOption = selectedOption;
window.returnValue = result;
window.close();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<select id="selectmenu">
<option
value=""
selected="selected">
Select an option
</option>
<option
value="option1">Option
One</option>
<option
value="option2">Option
Two</option>
<option
value="option1N">Option
N</option>
</select>
<br />
<label>Enter a text: </label>
<input id="textbox"
type="text"
/>
<br />
<input id="btnOk" type="button"
value="Ok"/>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Code snippet (open dialog):
var retObj
= window.showModalDialog('HTML_WebResource_url',
null, options);
//Check if the return object is null
if (retObj
== null) {
alert('Error in return');
return;
return;
}
//Check if
returned property 'EnteredText' value is not null
if
(retObj.EnteredText) {
//Use in the
form
Xrm.Page.getAttribute('attribute1_name').setValue(retObj.EnteredText);
}
//Check if
returned property 'SelectedOption' value is not null
if
(retObj.SelectedOption) {
//Use in the
form
Xrm.Page.getAttribute('attribute2_name').setValue(retObj.SelectedOption);
}
Hope it can be useful
Happy CRM coding

HI
ReplyDeleteHow can we run this HTML code dialog
I just added the HTML webresource and I just copied the Webresource URL and pasted on the jscript function
But nothing coming up, just added an alert and it is alerting , after that it is giving nothing
Could you please tell me how it works
Thanks In Advance
Hi Siva.
DeleteDepends on what you expect to return from the HTML page.
In my case I return 2 values that become available to the caller.
window.showModalDialog() is a synchronous function, means that the code breaks in its point and continue only when the dialog is closed; of course, if you close with the "x" you will have null as a returned value.
Hope it helps.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI have a similar requirement where in I am opening a phone call page from custom ribbon button in a modal dialog. When I save/close the phone call I need to refresh the lead form. How can we achieve this?
Thanks in advance!
