can we use jquery in SetHelpText in Behaviours Plugin?

fabby

my jira version is jira 4.4.1

i add i validator on field "Resolution" in Behaviours plugin

FormField formField = getFieldById("resolution")
FormField descField = getFieldById("comment")

if (formField.getFormValue() == "1") { //
    descField.setHelpText("&lt;script type=\"text/javascript\"&gt;var str=\"WWWW\";\
 AJS.$(\"#customfield_11100\").innerText=\"BBBGG\";&lt;/script&gt;")
}
else {
    descField.setHelpText("")
}

there is compilation error:

Compilation failure: startup failed: Script1.groovy: 7: illegal string body character after dollar sign; solution: either escape a literal dollar sign "\$5" or bracket the value expression "\$5" @ line 7, column 26. descField.setHelpText("<script type=\"text/javascript\">var str=\"WWWW\";\ ^ 1 error

then i replace "$" with "\$5" or "\$5",but there is no result i want.

if i use java script other than jquery,i get the result.

FormField formField = getFieldById("resolution")
FormField descField = getFieldById("comment")

if (formField.getFormValue() == "1") { //
    descField.setHelpText("&lt;script type=\"text/javascript\"&gt;var str=\"WWWW\";\
document.getElementById(\"customfield_11100\").innerText=\"BBBGG\";&lt;/script&gt;")
}
else {
    descField.setHelpText("")
}

i am wondering if we can use jquery in groovy in SetHelpText in Behaviours Plugin?

Yes you can .

I have done this before and it had worked.

For me it had worked on 4.3.2

fabby

if you use "$",don't you get any error message?

i guess "$" is one of reserved characters for groovy regular expression

Mizan

i escape it "AJS.\$" .

In your script i dont see a $5 still the compiler is giving an error. you can cross check the script associated to the field

CEDRIC ZABEL

You have two problems.

The first is what Mizan pointed out: the $ needs to be properly escaped in the validator code you entered in the Behaviours plugin. I see you’ve fixed that in your comments.

The second is that your jQuery is wrong. The innerText attribute of a jQuery object (as opposed to an actual DOM object in IE) has no meaning. In your comments, you switched to calling the .text() method. That’s better, but it won’t do what you want on form input elements.

What you need is the .val() method. That can get and set the value that the user entered and sees.

Try this:

FormField formField = getFieldById("resolution")
FormField descField = getFieldById("comment")
  
if (formField.getFormValue() == "1") { //
    descField.setHelpText("&lt;script type=\"text/javascript\"&gt;var str=\"WWWW\";\
 AJS.\$(\"#customfield_11100\").val(str);&lt;/script&gt;")
}
else {
    descField.setHelpText("")
}

thanks,it's really my fault.

i thought it is "textarea" of type ,in fact it is "input" in html source view.

i use "val()" ,and now the field "customfield_11100" displays the value of "WWWW"

fabby

in this example ,i have another problem.

if i change resolution to other ,not the default "Fixed" option(whose value is "1"),the value of "customfield_11100" is still be "WWWW",i.e. code

else {

descField.setHelpText("")

}

is not executed at all.

Mizan

This might be because it is not going in the else ,

try

if (formField.getFormValue() == 1) <br>
