Dialog box

Hi Alex - Can a dialog box be displayed with an error message if a control validation fails and not let the user submit the form.

Scenario

Only payroll staff (code '111') can submit a form.

If ($code != 111) then display dialog box with the error message.

if possible, can you please point me in the right direction

Thanks

Hi Manish,

Is this with a form created with Form Builder? If so, isn't this happening
by default, i.e. if a field is invalid, and users try to submit or save the
form, they will get a dialog telling them they need fix errors first, and
all errors will show in the error summary.

Re: Dialog box

Yes it does. But the requirement is to display a dialog box as soon as the validation fails

Scenario - Display error dialog box if the submitter is not a Manager.

Example: Employee details are auto-populated based on the logged in user which includes their position (positions can be multiple in which case the submitter selects one from a drop-down). If the selected submitter position code does not match with the manager code then that should immediately dispatch/trigger a dialog box with a message 'You are not eligible to submit this form' even before clicking on save or submit button. Is this possible?

Thanks

Hi Manish,

You would have to write some XForms to do something like that. And the
XForms should go in a separate file on the server where you put your custom
model logic. You can use an `<xf:message>` action to show the message, or if
you need a custom dialog, you can also create your own custom dialog.
