[Resolved] How to add JS to Toolset

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem

How can we use JS in a Toolset View or Content Template?

Solution

JS is added to the JS Editors under each of the relevant HTML editors.
This can be found in the Loop and Filter section, but as well under Content Template HTML editors.

There are also several hooks you can use when you press the button "Front-End Events" in the JS Editor for a Views Filter.
These are so to add your code after special Toolset related events using AJAX for example.

Hi,

I'm trying to invoke a JS function commaFormat() that adds thousands separator to large numbers. I tested the function working using alert(commaFormat(1000000)); to print on screen in the JS editor section (see attached screenshot) and it works.

However when I tried to call it in View editor it doesn't work:

<script>alert(commaFormat(1000000));</script>

What's the right way?

JS is added to the JS Editors under each of the relevant HTML editors.
This can be found in the Loop and Filter section, usually.

There are also several hooks you can use when you press the button "Front-End Events" in the JS Editor.
These are so to add your code after special Toolset related events using AJAX for example.

I am not sure you will be able to change the format of the numeric field like that, thou.

I have a request in place so to allow nicer number formats in numeric fields - but this is not yet in the development plans, but it is accepted as a request.

Thanks Beda.

I hope this number format feature can be made a priority because it looks very unprofessional on commercial and real estate sites dealing with large numbers especially.
