Error in the Custom JS

[Jeff Law]

HI,

I am trying to test out the new version of SPJS-Lookup, but I keep running into a problem where I get the “DFFS: There is an error in the Custom JS”.

I haven’t been able to track down what the problem is, and I must confess to not being a js expert, so most of my troubleshooting is by comparison and trial and error 🙂

My latest incarnation is as follows:

spjs.lookup.init({
	fieldToConvertToDropdown:"jslCompanies",	
	listName:"Companies",
	listBaseUrl:"/",
	optTextFieldInternalName:"Title",
	sortFieldName:"Title",
	filterObj:{
		on:false,
		CAML:null, 
		fin:"Completed",
		isLookup:false,
		operator:"Neq",
		filterVal:"1"
	},
	dropDownDefaultvalue:"...",
	addYouOwnValue:{
		on:false,
		linkText:"Write your own value"
	},
	addToExternalList:{
		on:false,
		customFunction:null, 
		linkText:"Add new item",
		saveNewItemText:"Save new item"
	},
	debug:false
});

I have tried with the parameter names enclosed in quotes as per web site article as well. eg

"fieldToConvertToDropdown":"jslCompanies",

Is there some basic js thing that I have missed?

Also, I was wondering if the filterObj, addYourOwnValue, and addToexternalList were optional parameters and could be left out if you didn’t want to use the functionality.

Regards
Jeff

Ok, found the problem… Actually a combination of 2 things, but the primary one was.. and this is even more embarrassing as this didn’t get copied across correctly above…

I seem to have added a $ in front of spjs.lookup.init({.. eg $spjs.lookup.init({…

It does have to be without the $ sign 🙂

By removing that $, and making sure the CEWP was below the form, I now get a result!!

I’m glad you figured it out.
