c_GeneratingMessages

//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.
