====c_GeneratingMessages====
<code>
//text
//alert(), addInfoMessage(), showFieldMsg(), jslog(), addDecoration()
 
//Context: Most client side code.
 
//Ways to generate messages from client side code:
//Use the alert() function to show a prominent and blocking modal dialog which must be explicitly dismissed for execution to continue.
//Display a message to the user from Client code using g_form.addInfoMessage() or g_form.addErrorMessage()
//Use g_form.addDecoration() to show a small graphic symbol by a form field label.  A mouse-over popup hint may be included, and a color may be specified.
//Use g_form.flash() to display a flashing colored background box behind a form field label.
//Use the confirm() function to display a modal popup dialog to get a response (OK or Cancel) from the user before continuing execution.
//Use the jslog() function to write a message to the web browser console.
function onLoad() {
                alert("My Alert Message"); //Modal dialog with OK button. 
                
                g_form.addErrorMessage("My Error Message"); //Wide message at top of form in Red.
                g_form.addInfoMessage("My Info Message"); //Wide message at top of form in Blue.
                
                g_form.showFieldMsg("name", "My Field Message"); //Message UNDERNEATH field.  Same width as field.  Displayed in blue.
                g_form.showFieldMsg("name", "My Field Message - info", "info"); //Again, message UNDERNEATH field.  Same width as field.  Displayed in blue.
                g_form.showFieldMsg("name", "My Field Message - error", "error"); //Message UNDERNEATH field.  Same width as field.  Displayed in red.
                g_form.showFieldMsg("name", "My Field Message - warning", "warning"); //Message UNDERNEATH field.  Same width as field.  Displayed in orange.
                
                jslog("My jslog Log"); //Sends a message to the web browser console log seen using F12.
 
                g_form.addDecoration("name", "icon-user", "This icon is called icon-user"); //Icon to the left of field.
                g_form.addDecoration("name", "icon-tree", "This icon is called icon-tree", "color-green");
                g_form.addDecoration("name", "icon-lightbulb", "This icon is called  icon-lightbulb", "color-red");
                
                g_form.flash("name", "#AAFACD", -4); //Yellow highlight bar over field for 4 seconds.
 
                var vResult = confirm("My Confirmation Message") ? "User clicked OK" : "User clicked Cancel"; //Modal dialog with 2 buttons.
                g_form.addInfoMessage(vResult); //Wide message at top of form in Blue.
}

====c_GlideAjaxMethod====
<code>
//text
//GlideAjax, addParam(), getXMLAnswer
 
//From client side code, to invoke server side code asynchronously, instantiate a custom GlideAjax object.
//Use the addParam() function, and by convention, the parameter named "sysparm_name" to specify which server side function to invoke.
//Additional arbitrary parameters may also be specified with addParam(); In this example "sysparm_Prefix".
//Use getXMLAnswer() to invoke the server-side function and specify a callback function; in this example "finishClientSideWorkONE".
//Use a direct parameter in your callback function to make use of data returned by the server; in this case the parameter is named "answerFromServer".
function onLoad() {
                g_form.addInfoMessage("BEGIN Client Script");
 
                var ga = new GlideAjax('zJWJ_AjaxFunctions'); //phoenixAjaxUtils is the name of a Server Side Script Include CLASS.
                ga.addParam("sysparm_name", "getMyTitle"); //One parameter must be named sysparm_name.  It tells which function to invoke on the server.
                ga.getXMLAnswer(finishClientSideWork); //Call server function.  When it's complete, then invoke "finishClientSideWork" back here on the client.
 
                g_form.addInfoMessage("Additional Code on Client Side 1");
 
                var ga2 = new GlideAjax('zJWJ_AjaxFunctions'); //phoenixAjaxUtils is the name of a Server Side Script Include CLASS.
                ga2.addParam("sysparm_name", "getMyTitleWithPrefix"); //Tells which function to invoke on the server.
                ga2.addParam("sysparm_Prefix", "Sir "); //Additional custom parameter.
                ga2.getXMLAnswer(finishClientSideWorkTWO); //Call server function.  When complete, then invoke "finishClientSideWorkTWO" back here on the client.
 
                g_form.addInfoMessage("Additional Code on Client Side 2");
}
 
function finishClientSideWork(answerFomServer)
{
                g_form.addInfoMessage("BEGIN finishClientSideWorkONE");
                g_form.addInfoMessage("Title from Server: " + answerFomServer);
