Overwrite SAVE button on Opportunity Edit Page?
Hi there,
I need to place the following S-control on the SAVE button for **Opp Edit Page** so that it creates the ALERT message each time the user clicks on the SAVE button.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="/js/functions.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/soap/ajax/10.0/connection.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function updatethechkbox()
{
var cas= new sforce.SObject("Opportunity");
result = sforce.connection.create([cas]);
cas.Id = "{!Opportunity.Id}";
cas.ForAlertMsg__c = "true";
result = sforce.connection.update([cas]);
}
function throwalert()
{
// Begin by creating 3 variables for the criteria to be met.
// 1st RecordType should be KBB Generic for the Opportunity
var recordtype = "{!Opportunity.RecordType}";
// 2nd will be the TYPE of opportunity that is created, which is the standard field.
var thetype = "{!Opportunity.Type}";
// 3rd will be the Opportunity Status which is also a standard field.
var isstatus = "{!Opportunity.StageName}";
// Another variable is defined which will hold the ALERT message as this is the better approach - inside the function.
var msgg = "You can now create the Sales Order for this Opportunity"
// Another variable for the hidden checkbox field on the Oppor page which will be set to TRUE first time alert is displayed
var hide = "{!Opportunity.ForAlertMsg__c}";
//var isChanged = false; // This will be set to TRUE when the ALERT is displayed the first time.
// Now the IF statement for 3 criteria to be met, along with the following:-
// 1. Check if the chkbox is set to TRUE or not.
// 2. If checkbox is NOT TRUE then display the message and set it to TRUE.
// 3. If checkbox is TRUE then dont display the message.
if ((recordtype == "KBB Generic") && (thetype == "KBB KPO") && (isstatus == "Closed Won") && ({!Opportunity.ForAlertMsg__c} == false))
{
updatethechkbox();
alert(msgg);
}
else
{
window.parent.location.replace = "{URLFOR($Action.Opportunity.View, Opportunity.Id,null,true)};"
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="throwalert()";>
</body>
</html>
How can I overwrite the SAVE button on Opportunities?
Thanks

You can't overwrite a save button. Try writing an Apex trigger instead. Based on your code below it seems like you can do all that in an Apex trigger.
