onclick event in editview and quickcreate for text field

[it@smoothfitness.com]

Hi there,
I'm trying to setup an onclick javascript event for a text field both in edit view and quickcreate for a custom module. I looked at http://www.sugarcrm.com/wiki/index.p...ller_%28MVC%29 and it appears you can't attach any display params to a text field. is this accurate? I've tried several things that did not work, includinfg the normal :

 'displayParams' => 
            array (
              'javascript' => 'onchange="alert(\'test\')"'
            ), 
  

Any ideas?

here's the full editviewdefs.php file with my testing changes:
you'll see another attempt i made at line 102 -- did not work, but got closer.
My goal is to populate teh name field with the value of 'parts_parts_catalog_pitem_parts_items_name'

 <?php
$module_name = 'pitem_parts_items';
$viewdefs [$module_name] = 
array (
  'EditView' => 
  array (
    'templateMeta' => 
    array (
      'maxColumns' => '2',
      'widths' => 
      array (
        0 => 
        array (
          'label' => '10',
          'field' => '30',
        ),
        1 => 
        array (
          'label' => '10',
          'field' => '30',
        ),
      ),
    ),

          ),
        ),
      ),
    ),
  ),
);
?>  

Thanks for the help!

The attribute

  'displayParams' => 
 array(
    'javascript' => 'someevent="somefunction();"',
 ), 
  

Only works for enum (dropdown/radio button) fields.
You need to specify a customCode instead.
The next release will include such functionality for other field types.

Hello Andopes or Anybody,

Please, how can one specify a customCode or get around using the onclick event for a checkbox: i.e, is there a "somevent" attribute for checkboxes in sugarCRM? Thank you.

Sincerely,
Akin
