pop up on status change in case object

Hello Friends,

I am trying to build a pop up alert box in my case object. Whenever my status field is changed to closed, I want to display a pop up. Here's what I have tried so far:

<apex:page standardController="case">
<script>
windows.document.onload = new function(e) {
if({case.JIRA_Status__c= 'Closed'})
{
alert("True");
} else
{ alert("false";) }
}
</script>
</apex:page>

I think what you need is a confirmation prompt, not an alert.

Try this code.
  
<apex:page standardcontroller="case">
<script>
function saveClick() {
var caseStatus = document.getElementById('j_id0:j_id2:CaseStatus');

if(caseStatus.value == 'Closed')
{
    alert("Case is Closed.");
}
}
</script>
<apex:form >
.
.
.YOUR INPUT FIELDS HERE
.
.
.
<apex:commandbutton action="{!save}" value="Save" onclick="javascript:saveClick();"></apex:commandbutton>
</apex:form>

</apex:page>
Look out for the ID of your Case Status field (using Developer Console in your Browser) and populate it in line 4 of the code.

Let me know if this helps.

Hi Shruthi,

This is what you need to add in your VF page.
  
<script>
if({case.JIRA_Status__c= 'Closed'})
	{
		alert("True");
	} 
else
	{ 
		alert("false"); 
	}
</script>
This piece of script will be executed when the page is loaded.

Hi Shruthi,

Please try the below piece of code. 
<apex:page standardcontroller="case">

<!-- JS Section -->
<script>
 var caseStatus = '{!case.JIRA_Status__c}';

 window.onload = function () {
   if(caseStatus == 'Closed'){
     // case closed write alert here
     alert('Case is closed');
   }
   else{
     // for else case
   }
 }
</script>
</apex:page>
Best Regards,
Nagendra.

Hi Shruthi,

 

Please do the same for your requirement - 
Go to case and edit case page layout. Drag the suggested visualforce page on page layout. Edit the visualforce page properties and set Height as 0 pixel. (We don't need to show this page to users.) Save the page layout.
 
Let me know if you have any doubts.

Thanks

Are you trying to add this alert to an existing VF page?

If yes, you just need to add the following lines inside the <SCRIPT> tag.
  
if({!case.JIRA_Status__c == 'Closed'})
	{
		alert("True");
	} 
else
	{ 
		alert("false"); 
	}
Any Javascript code outside a function definition will be executed automatically during the page load.

I actually missed an ! symbol in my previous reply.

Hi LBK,

I am trying to create this pop up on existing Standard Case Object.

i trying to write separate VF page.

 
LBKLBK
You can add it to your VF page, in the top <SCRIPT> section.

You can even include the VF page as part of your Page Layouts.

If you still have issues, post your VF page here, we can help you.

Hello LBK,

below code is working fine but the pop up appears after clicking on save button but i would like to get this pop up before saving the case record.

lets say i entered status value and click on save then the pop up should appear(but record should not be saved) then again i should click on 'ok' on pop up box and click save button to save the record.

<apex:page standardcontroller="case">
<script>
var caseStatus = '{!case.Status}';
window.onload = function () {
if(caseStatus == 'Closed')
{
alert ('Case is closed');
}
}
</script>
</apex:page>

if(caseStatus.value == 'Closed')
{
    alert("Case is Closed.");
}
}
</script>
<apex:form >

.YOUR INPUT FIELDS HERE

<apex:commandbutton action="{!save}" value="Save" onclick="javascript:saveClick();"></apex:commandbutton>

I mean Developer >> Web console in your browser. This will help you in finding the ID of the inputField which will look similar to "j_id0:j_id2:CaseStatus".
