Custom JavaScripts in JIRA 5.1.3

[Vishnukumar Vasudevan]

Guys,

I used to use the beow script in JIRA 4.4.1 to alter the visibility of a custom field based on another one.

<script type="text/javascript">
priority = document.getElementById('priority');
if (priority) {
target = document.getElementById('customfield_10061').parentNode;
// Hide the target field if priority isn't a Blocker
if (priority.value != 1) target.style.display='none';

priority.onchange=function() {
if (this.value == 1) {
target.style.display = '';
} else {
target.value='n/a';
target.style.display='none';
}
}
}
</script>

The above script doesn't work with JIRA 5.1.3. Do I need to change anything in the script ?

Thanks, Vishnu.

Perhaps is the same case as in this question: How do you embed JavaScript for a custom field in Jira 5.x

Or, this documentation in the Atlassian Developers site may help: How do you embed JavaScript for a custom field in Jira 5.x

It works, sometimes doesn't. Anyway, thanks for the hint.

let me know if it not worked!

Got it !!

It works when you create issue first time. It doesn't work if you use the new feature 'Create Anotther One' up on succession. The reason can be, new Jira doesn't reload forms but it just clear the forms for new issue creation.

Is there any workarround to fix this ?

Is it not working while editing? None of this will work with inline edit for sure.

It's not working even in the create issue screen :(

Is the javascript firing? Any error? Time for debugging ;)

[Vishnukumar Vasudevan]

No, it doesnt fire any error.
