Reading Querystring using Jscript
Hi,
Below is the Jscript function to parse query string (i.e., In to Parameter & Value pair)
// Read querystring and returns Parameter & Value pair Array
function fetchQueryStringParams() {
var qrStr = window.location.search;
var spQrStr = qrStr.substring(1);
var arrQrStr = new Array();
// splits each of pair
var arr = spQrStr.split(‘&’);
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
// splits each of field-value pair
var index = arr[i].indexOf(‘=’);
var key = arr[i].substring(0, index);
var val = arr[i].substring(index + 1);
// saves each of field-value pair in an array variable
arrQrStr[key] = val;
}
return arrQrStr;
}
How do I call this method?
- Suppose you have URl with 2 query string parameters (fname & lname)
- Call the above method in Page “Onload()” Jscript event.
function onload() {
var arrQrStr = fetchQueryStringParams();
alert(“First Name” + arrQrStr[‘fname’]);
alert(“Last Name” + arrQrStr[‘lname’]);
}
Hope it helps 🙂
How to get Object Type Codes of Entities in CRM 2011
Hi,
In this article i have explained different ways to fetch entities “Object Type Code”
- Using SQL Query :-
Query>
SELECT ObjectTypeCode,*
FROM
ENTITYVIEW
Using JScript :-
- The “ObjectTypeCode” can be extracted from Query String using JScript
- “ObjectTypeCode” resides in “etc” query string parameter
- Below is the JScript statement to get “ObjectTypeCode”
var currEntityObjTypeCode= Xrm.Page.context.getQueryStringParameters().etc
Key Points
- Type codes below 10,000 are reserved for OOB entities.
- Custom entities have a value greater than or equal to 10,000.
Note:- Custom entity object type codes may change during import and are not guaranteed to be the same between systems.
