Hi,

I am trying to get a function working in Remedy to parse a field up as far as the last comma. e.g   name1, name2, name3 - >

click the button once, output should be - name1, name2.

I have the following in the webheader -

<script type="text/javascript">

function backstep("arid_WIN_0_767700031") {

var fieldElement = document.getElementById("arid_WIN_0_767700031");

var oldFieldValue = fieldElement.value;

var indexOfDelimiter = fieldValue.lastIndexOf(",");

var newFieldValue = oldFieldValue.substring(0, indexOfDelimiter);

fieldElement.value = newFieldValue;}

</script>

I have an active link with the following

javascript backstep (document.getElementById("arid_WIN_0_767700031").value);

I am getting function not supported error 9369

Looking at the console debugger - I am also getting the following -

"unreachable code after return statement PopupSupport.js:1:139007

An unbalanced tree was written using document.write() causing data from the network to be reparsed. For more information https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Optimizing_Your_Pages_for_Speculative_Parsing"

Has anyone got any ideas? Thanks

I believe the logic should be sound as I was able to achieve the desired affect by using a slightly edited version of this code for a simple webpage that I setup with two input boxes, where the results of the parse from the text in one would get input in a second box
