Onclick event on a lookup field

[PoppingMonks]

Hi,

I am finding that when I add an onclick javascript event to a lookup object, the click event is tied to the label and not the magnifier image. Any suggestions for a workaround?

Thanks!

Hi,

The workaround is to add a click handler in the form's Custom Code:

E.g. if your lookup's Id was emp_name, the button's Id is emp_namebutton

Code: Select all

$("#emp_namebutton").click(function(){ 
  console.log('your code here');
});

Update: This is now fixed on Github.

The onclick event is triggered when the lookup's search button is clicked. All other events (oninput, onchange etc.) are fired for the input (lookup code)
