Data Table Editor Event

mazoon

Hi,
I am trying to check some condition before allow user to click "New" button

Editor.on('initCreate', function () {
  if (SelectStatus !== 'Y') {
    alert("Pleae Select !!!!!!");
      return false;
    }
  else 
     return true;
});

I am getting alert but after alert it shows Lightbox for adding new record.
How to prevent show the lightbox dialog if condition not match ??

The initCreate event is not cancellable which is why the above code won't really do anything. Instead, what you need to do is use the preSubmit event which is cancellable and will stop the user from being able to submit without your condition being satisfied.
