Java scripts implemented in the field configuration->field description is not working..

We added the scripts as part of a plugin and worked well

The best way to add javascript for jira 5.0 is by using webresource

<web-resource key="test-js" name="javascript">
		<dependency>jira.webresources:global-static</dependency>
		<description>JavaScript test</description>
		<resource name="test.js" type="download" location="templates/js/test.js" />
		<context>atl.general</context>
		 <context>atl.admin</context>
	</web-resource>

test.js as follows

JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {

....javascript

});

Hi, by adding

window.onload = function () {window.location.reload()}

to one of the custom field description java script, this seems to have cause the custom field page to be refresh continously, and i am not able to edit any of the custom field.
I have tried to delete this from the field configuration page, but the same refresh issue is also seen in the field configuration page

Any idea/advice on how to stop this to remove the above coding from the custom field

Hi Mizan,

This also not working..The scrips works only in the second time loding.

This might be a browser issue , try with different browsers . You can even include the below line in your script .

window.onload = function () {window.location.reload()}

This will refresh the page and may help .

[Anoop Wilson]

Yes..I already tried it..If I refresh the page 2 or 3 times,the script is getting loaded..,.

Any idea about this behavior.

[Dieter]

Did you already place alert or console.log statements at the beginning of each event handler to see if the script is called at all?
