Script includes are found under System Definition or System UI. You can call existing script includes from a script.

To create an entirely new script include, you can follow the format of any of the existing script includes. In the example, the name of your Script Include is 'NewInclude' and there is a single function called 'myFunction.' It is important that the name of the script include match the name of the class, prototype, and type. When you create a new script include and give it a name, the system provides you a code snippet with the class and prototype set up properly.

var NewInclude =Class.create();
 
NewInclude.prototype={
   initialize :function(){},
 
   myFunction :function(){//Put function code here},
 
   type :'NewInclude'};

You could then use the 'myFunction' line like this:

var foo =new NewInclude();
foo.myFunction();

The privacy setting for a client-callable script-include can be public or private. Most client-callable script-includes are marked private by default.

The private privacy-setting means that guests who access public pages cannot access the client-callable script-include. A private script cannot be executed by a non-logged-in user.

A public privacy-setting means that the client script can be executed by non-logged-in users that create an appropriate HTTP request. This can create a security problem if the client script provides confidential information.

Change the privacy setting on all client-callable script includes.

To provide further control over all client-callable script includes, administrators can add the glide.script.ccsi.ispublic property. This property changes the visibility of client-callable script includes by making them all public or private. Configure the property as follows:

Change the privacy setting for a single client-callable script include by adding the isPublic() function.

The isPublic() setting takes precedence over the glide.script.ccsi.ispublic property. For example, if the property is set to false, making all client-callable script-includes private, and a script sets isPublic() to true, the script is public.

To change the privacy for a single client-callable script include, add the following method to the script include:

  isPublic:function(){return[true/false];},

var NewInclude =Class.create();
 
NewInclude.prototype={
   initialize:function(){},
 
   myFunction:function(){//Put function code here},
   isPublic:function(){return false;},
 
   type:'NewInclude'};
