How can i call a method (From sugar server) on the  click of custom added button?

Hi Parag Mittal

Check this post for creating custom button 

Now in your custom/include/javascript/test.js file write all your script code to do so:
$(document).ready(function(){
   function myButtonFunt(){           

         var formvalue = $("#field-name-id").val();

         console.log("Hi Friends am Triggered.. ", formvalue);

         $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "custom/modules/<module-name>/saveChanges.php",
            data: {formdata: formvalue},            
            success:function(fdata){
                  console.log(" Success on it.. ");                 
         },
         error: function(fdata) {                  
               console.log(" With Error in it.. ");
      }
   }); // End of ajax

   } // End of myButtonFunt
});

-- Under saveChange.php write your logic:
<?php
if(!defined('sugarEntry') || !sugarEntry) die('Not A Valid Entry Point');
require_once('include/entryPoint.php');

// here write all your logic which you want

echo $_REQUEST['formdata'];

Hope this Helps..!!

Thanks Ramana for your Reply.

I have attached the screen shot for better understanding.

In the above image you can see i have created a custom entity.

On this entity i want to add Test Button next to Cancel.

I have made  following changes (changes are in bold letters) in the file editviewdefs.php

under the path custom/modules/CustomEntity/metadata/

<?php
$module_name = 'PB_PitneyBowesEntity';
$viewdefs [$module_name] =
array (
'EditView' =>
array (
'templateMeta' =>
array (
'maxColumns' => '2',
'widths' =>
array (
0 =>
array (
'label' => '10',
'field' => '30',
),
1 =>
array (
'label' => '10',
'field' => '30',
),
// Add Custom Code
2 =>
array (
'buttons' =>
array (
'customCode' => '<input id="TestButton" title="Test Button" class="button" type="button" name="TestButton" value="Test Button" onclick="myButtonFunt();">',
),
),

But it is not visible in Custom module.

Please suggest What i have missed.

What am i missing in following code share by you?

templateMeta' => 
    // Add this code
    array (         
       'javascript' => '        
            <script src="./include/javascript/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>  
            <script src="./custom/include/javascript/test.js" type="text/javascript"></script>  
       ',  
    ),         
    array (
       'buttons' => 
        array (
          0 => 'SAVE',
          1 => 'CANCEL', 
          // Add This code
          2 =>
          array (
            'customCode' => '<input id="MyButton" title="My Button" class="button" type="button" name="MyButton" value="My Button" onclick="myButtonFunt();">',
        ),
    ),

Hi Parag Mittal

I will write it for you the correct code.
