The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

OnLoad & OnChange events no longer working in mscrm 4.0

Asked by lynxwoman in CRM Software

Tags: CRM 4.0, customized contact form, cascading picklist

I have code, in the onLoad Event for my customized contact form, using the MS Adventure Works (CRM 4.0)  sample using vm. We upgraded from 3.0 to 4.0 this weekend and when I try cutting and pasting my onLoad and onChange code into our new 4.0 I get error on the New Contact Form and on the Retail Tab (specific to a picklist). Yes, I changed all the attribute names to reflect our real CRM database (instead of new_retailvertical, now little_retailvertical)

Here's the onLoad error when creating a new contact:

There was an error with this field's customized event,
Field: window
Event: onLoad
Error: 'undefined' is null or not an object

Here is the error when clicking on the Retail Tab:
There was an error with this field's customized event,
Field: little_retailvertical
Event: onchange
Error: 'originalPicklistOptions.length' is null or not an object

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
Sandy
