Submit Webpage from OnSave button in MS CRM Dynamics Javascript

Introduction

This article will help you to submit a webpage (asp, aspx, etc.) file from CRM Dynamics OnSave button click event with JavaScript. This article will take Account entity as an example and assumes that the webpage is already available to access from JavaScript.

Using the Code

Below steps need to be followed to customize the CRM Dynamics Account form.

Select the form to customize and submit the webpage. This can be done by stepping through Settings->Customization->Account->Forms and Views-> Form
Add the IFrame to the form.
Select the IFrame and click the Change Properties
Enter the name and URL of the IFrame. URL is the path of the file where the webpage resides ex: http://localhost:5555/sample.aspx
Check “Pass Object type****” if you would like to pass the form ObjectId as a parameter to the webpage. Form ObjectId is nothing but the AccountId of the Account entity which is selected from Accounts screen.
Now select Form Properties and select the events tab (by default this tab will be shown).
Select the OnSave from the list and press the edit button to write the JavaScript.
On opening the new window select the “Event is enabled” checkbox. This will enable the CRM form to execute the javascript.
Write the following JavaScript in the edit box to submit the form

var iframe = document.getElementById('IFRAME_AddressList');

var iframeDoc = iframe.Document;

var iframeForm = iframeDoc.getElementById('frmAddress');

iframeForm.target = '_self';

iframeForm.method = 'post';

iframeForm.action ='http://localhost:5555/sample.aspx? Id='+crmForm.ObjectId;

iframeForm.submit();

Here IFRAME_AddressList is the name of the iFrame.
frmAddress is the form name in the aspx page.
Since the submission is to the same page the target is “_self”
crmForm.ObjectId is passed as query string to get the AccountID in the aspx page
(Since we are overriding the CRM Dynamics form submission the query string need to be
passed explicitly).

Now close the JavaScript window by pressing the OK button and close the form properties window.
Save and Close the form at the top left corner of the Form.
Now publish the form with the menu Actions->Publish.
I hope this article will help you to submit the webpage from the CRM Dynamics form.
