The SimpleForm API provides methods for customizing forms.

SimpleForm methods can be used on the client side only.

You can also use these methods to configure the contextual dependencies between fields and values (for example, change values in the fields or clear the fields).

s_form.getValue(fieldName)

Returns the value of the specified field


Parameter(s):

NameType
fieldNameString


Return:

TypeDescription
StringThe value of the field.


Example:

s_form.getValue('caller_id');


s_form.setValue(fieldName, value, displayValue)

Sets the field value.

For reference fields or list fields, three arguments are in use: ‘value’ is to set a value name and ‘displayValue’ to display in the field.

For fields of the other types, the argument 'value’ uses to display value in the field and set the value name.


Parameter(s):

NameType
fieldNameString
valueString
displayValueString
