Hi Ramana

I am having problems getting the button to recognize the onclick function billToButtonFunt(). The error message is as follows:

Uncaught ReferenceError: myButtonFunt is not defined. I am sending you my code, it seems that the .js file is not being recognized, however I did try clicking on the link to the js file on viewcode section and I can see the function clearly.

<?php
$viewdefs ['Leads'] =
array (
'EditView' =>
array (
'templateMeta' =>
array (
'form' =>
array (
'hidden' =>
array (
0 => '<input type="hidden" name="prospect_id" value="{if isset($smarty.request.prospect_id)}{$smarty.request.prospect_id}{else}{$bean->prospect_id}{/if}">',
1 => '<input type="hidden" name="account_id" value="{if isset($smarty.request.account_id)}{$smarty.request.account_id}{else}{$bean->account_id}{/if}">',
2 => '<input type="hidden" name="contact_id" value="{if isset($smarty.request.contact_id)}{$smarty.request.contact_id}{else}{$bean->contact_id}{/if}">',
3 => '<input type="hidden" name="opportunity_id" value="{if isset($smarty.request.opportunity_id)}{$smarty.request.opportunity_id}{else}{$bean->opportunity_id}{/if}">',
4 => '<script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>',
5 => '<script type="text/javascript" src="./custom/include/javascript/test.js"></script>',

),

'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();">',

),
),
),

Hello,

I have tried this, I can't get it to work. I am using SugarCRM version 6.5. I am putting a button on detail view, not edit view, so this is what I put in my detailviewdefs.php:

$viewdefs['Cases']['DetailView'] = array(
    'templateMeta' => array(

        'form' => array(
            array (         
                'javascript' => '        
                     <script src="/custom/include/javascript/jquery-1.4.4.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>  
                     <script src="/custom/modules/Cases/scripts/detailview/additionalInfoPopup.js" type="text/javascript"></script>  
                ',  
             ),

            'buttons' => array(...

The paths you can see there are absolute, starting at my sugarcrm root folder. I have verified that the files are there by navigating to them directly in the browser. I put absolute paths there after some experimentation. Unfortunately nothing has worked.

The button I have added has the event handler like you specified,

onclick="myButtonFunt();"

but when I click the button I get

RefereneError: myButtonFunt is not defined

The contents of additionalInfoPopup.js are exactly the same as your example.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Some additional info:

I have viewed the page source and  there isn't a mention of my included script files. Also when I view the debugger tab in Firefox, the script file additionalInfoPopup.js doesn't seem to be loaded.

I have tried putting the 'javascript' =>   array both inside and outside the 'form' => array. Neither of these approaches worked.
