New Line and Tab for Message in Alert box

Hi ​@JuniSihombing 

Line break ot tab break is not supported in the alert messages.

Just a wild idea, I did not try this.

Try creating the message value in a DB table or view, which supports line breaks and then show it in the alert message.

Please share the results.

Cheers!

Hi ​@Shneor Cheshin,

thank you for your feedback.

Let me try your suggestion, and come back with the results.

Hi ​@Shneor Cheshin,

unfortunately it doesn’t work either.

If you are interested in what’s been done, here’s the snippets of the code:

...
				message = message + line;

				var alertMessage = getDBValues('C_GET_MESSAGE',[message])[0];
				alert(alertMessage.message);

Client Script SQL = C_GET_MESSAGE:

SELECT 
REPLACE(REPLACE('{0}', '\n', CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)), '\t', CHAR(9)) message

Result:

It seems the new line/tab breaks are trimmed in a message.

I tried to create a custom message for the whole message containing new line, in the message in alert box does not show the new line break.

Could you use something like padEnd?

How would something like that display?

var resultTasks = getDBValues('C_GET_OPEN_PROD_PM_SCHED_TASK', [productId, productPmId]);

if (resultTasks.length > 0) {

    var message = "";

    var line = "";

    message += getMessage('cPleaseCloseTask', 'Information') + "\n";

    message += getMessage('cBeforeChangeVCF', 'Information') + "\n\n";

    message += getMessage('RequestId', 'Label').padEnd(20, ' ');

    message += getMessage('TaskId', 'Label').padEnd(20, ' ');

    message += getMessage('TaskStatus', 'Label') + "\n";

    for (var i = 0; i < resultTasks.length; ++i) {

        var resultTask = resultTasks[i];

        line += resultTask.request_id.toString().padEnd(20, ' ');

        line += resultTask.task_id.toString().padEnd(20, ' ');

        line += resultTask.task_status + "\n";

    }

    document.getElementById("taskOutput").textContent = message + line;

    document.getElementById("taskModal").style.display = "block";

    return false;

}

Hi ​@AdrianEgley ,

Thank you for your suggestion.

It seems the padEnd function is not supported in FSM client script.

I got this error message
