Adding a dialog pop up warning when reset button is clicked

[ewesa03]

Hello,

I'd like to add a dialog box warning to the "reset" button that will pop up when the button is clicked, with text saying something like "are you sure you'd like to reset the form?" before the form actually gets reset. The purpose will be to help users avoid resetting the form on accident. Any ideas would be appreciated, I'm kinda in the dark ages using LiveCycle Designer 7.0.7.

Thanks,

S.

Hi,

This should work in v7. Put it in the click event of the reset button.

var nButton = app.alert({
cMsg: "Warning: You are about to reset the form. \n\nDo you want to continue?",
cTitle: "Your title here",
nIcon: 1, nType: 2
});

if (nButton == 4)
{

     xfa.host.resetData();

}

The script puts an app.alert out before the reset. If the user click Yes then the form is reset. If No then the form is not reset.

Good luck,

Niall
