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..!!

Hi Deepak

I tried in my Account module with below code and is working for me.
Can you try in this way and let me know for further help.
In custom/modules/Accounts/metadata/editviewdefs.php i have added following code:

'templateMeta' => 
    array (
      'form' => 
      array (
        'buttons' => 
        array (
          0 => 'SAVE',
          1 => 'CANCEL',
          2 =>
               array (
               'customCode' => '<input id="TestButton" title="Test Button" class="button" type="button" name="TestButton" value="Test Connection" onclick="testConnection();">',
               ),
        ),
      ),
      'includes' => 
      array (
        0 => 
        array (
          'file' => 'custom/modules/Accounts/test.js',
        ),
      ),
    ),

Here is my test.js code ( custom/modules/Accounts/test.js):

function testConnection()
{ 
alert("Hi Friends am triggered.."); 
}

Also dont forget to change module name according to your usage and let me know for further help.
Hope this Helps..!!

Thanks for your reply!

All issue resolved now i am getting following response from ajax call:

Not A Valid Entry Point.

 I have debuged the code and found that request is correct and reaching to the server side PHP mentioned by us.

But  it is throwing die part of the file.

I am analyzing it,  i will appreciate if you can help me to understand Why it is happening ? so that i can proceed further.

Hi Ramana,

Thanks for your reply!

I am analyzing the root cause. will update you. soon. i am able to call php file.

 I saw the console in mozilla and the console is getting printed with "console.log(" Success on it.. ");" and in call back function value is "Not A Valid Entry Point".

so it  is clear that some thing is wrong in php file will analyze and update you.

Thanks for your support and guidance.
