Using bf.showModal and Sweet Alert for JavaScript Notifications

Dan Rosenstein:
trying to replace an ‘alert’ JS with a bf.showModal inside a named action and getting errors. Is this not possible? (alternatively, if I can change the default alert title ‘domain.fmbetterforms.com:’ that would do to)

Neil Manchester:
I found a great library called Sweet Alert for triggering alerts via JS. Post on the BF Forum showing how to do it and some example images if it’s of any interest.

Dan Rosenstein:
cool, will check it out. thanks :+1:


Dan Rosenstein:
have you tried it in a named action?


Neil Manchester:
Yes. Used it loads within the function snippet. You can then trigger other named actions depending on the users choice using the bf.namedAction call. Examples in the post


Neil Manchester:
Also can be called from within FileMaker


Dan Rosenstein:
very nice!


Neil Manchester:
Lots of examples on their website too

Dan Rosenstein:
very nice - works. I was thrown off because I took your example to test, as is, and it is missing a comma after the ‘title’ so was throwing all these errors


Neil Manchester:
Ah right ok. Will update the post to fix
