Bug with Get (ScriptParameter) function in Popovers

Featured Replies

For some reason when I have a portal in a popover and I have it set so that when a user clicks a record in the portal, it runs a script with a parameter which pulls the record's unique ID. When I run the script in FM13 (PC windows 8.1) with script debugger I see it pulling the right info, but for some reason on WebDirect (Chrome) it seems like it's pulling the wrong records unique ID. Must be bug...any workaround?

 

Thanks!

This is a known bug, sorry.

I meant to post this earlier, Justin, but I had to find it again.

There have been 4 or 5 threads about it on the various forums but this is the official bug report on it.

 

I do believe an Updater fixing several things will be out soon but that is only my guess of course.

If you need a workaround immediately, a less than desirable but functional solution is to trigger the script via On Object Enter script trigger, on a field in your portal. So the focus enters your portal row FIRST, then triggers the script, instead of the other way around which appears to currently be the case. Ideally this would be done on a calculated field or somesuch so that your users can't edit it, but can still enter it (to trigger the script).
