Send email

[William Summers]

It would appear that using <input type=”button” onclick=”spjs.dffs.processEmailTemplate(‘TemplateID’)” value=”Send E-Mail”> sends the email but redirects to the list view. How can I stop this?

Thanks!

Try it like this:

<input type=”button” onclick=”spjs.dffs.processEmailTemplate(‘TemplateID’);return false;” value=”Send E-Mail”>

Which browser are you using? and is it New, Disp or EditForm?

I had a look at the code now and this is actually a bug. When you call spjs.dffs.processEmailTemplate it will trigger a save after the email is sent.

It was not supposed to do that when you manually triggered an email, but I usually do that in DispForm so I haven’t noticed the form being saved (this will of course not happen when in DispForm).

I’ll address this issue in the next release.

PS: If you want to send the email when the form is saved – and not immediately when they click the button – you can call this function instead:

spjs.dffs.handleEmailTemplate("TemplateID", true);
