Error Messege

er_anant

Hi All,

I want to display some error messeges if some certain condition is not true.
I have used an email task for this. Is there any other way to perform this operation more efficiently.

regards

Where you want to show the error message?
Whom you want to show it?
Where are the conditions?

What is your TS version?
What is your environment?

thx for the reply...

I am using teamsite 6.7.1 on windows.

I want to show the error messege to the user so that he can't continue further.

I am checking for the locks on the file . If the file is locked then i want to show an error messege "File is locked.Please try after some time."

Is there any way to go with this.

When you want to show this message? I mean at which event?

I am using workflow modeller.

To chk wether the file is locked or not i am calling an external task if this returns locked status 'true' then I want to display the messesge.

Use a cgitask instead of an externaltask - if the files are locked, display the information in a window, otherwise just callback and gracefully continue (you might need to create / close the CGI window).

This assumes that the cgitask follows one of the three conditions that will allow it to run immediately.

Alternatively, perhaps do a callServer() call from within a custom DCT for the workflow instantiation form - and then have the script which is called perform the checks and if there are error conditions - have it put up an alert message - (and then figure out a graceful way to terminate the not-yet-fully-instantiated job)

Thx for replying dear,

I think I can show this messege using transition comments too.
Is there any method using which i can change the font style of this text ...

E.g. Bold and Red

"dear"?
That's somewhat of a presumptive form of salutation honey.

Presuming that you're talking about the font style of the transition comment in the email notification - as opposed to font style of text in these forums ... it depends on what you're using to send email notification and how much you're willing to work on creating or modifying copies of code that already present the information.

However - this concept does not seem to agree with the original intent expressed - since it seemed like you were looking to provide more immediate feedback while the user was interacting with TeamSite.

Read my other response - I already did suggest some ways of doing it.

Instead of showing the message in an alert box, Is there any other way to display the message in the custom instantiation screen itself.
I'm looking to use something like IWDatacapture.displayMessage('message'). Is this possible in custom instantiation screen ?

Thanks,

Possibly, I haven't tried - have you? (instead of just asking when you could verify it yourself since you're the one looking for it)

There are other possible ways of displaying the information - but I think a dialog box tends to be more noticeable than a mode-line message (especially if the user has their browser set up to not display the mode-line - which is, I believe, where displayMessage() does its thing)

Yep, i've tried it. its not working :-( .
I just want to verify whether anybody else has done it.
Thanks anyway.
