Make Edit Page option available in list forms like NewForm.aspx, EditForm.aspx and DispForm.aspx

Most common question among SharePoint customization is that

“Why Edit Page option is not available in list forms like NewForm.aspx, EditForm.aspx and DispForm.aspx?”

If we need to edit New/Edit/Display Form of list most of the time we are using SharePoint designer. But here is the one nice trick to achieve this functionality. Just add “&ToolPaneView=2” at the end of the URL and refresh the page. So that you’re URL will be like this.

http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/NewForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2 http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/EditForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2 http://sharepointkings/... /Lists/Demo/DispForm.aspx?RootFolder...&Source=…&ToolPaneView=2

You can see add webpart tool pan beside this web part.

Just add or remove your webpart and your work is done. Updated :

Let's examine the command: The MSO presumably stands for Microsoft Office, the TlPn (that's a lowercase L not a 1 and unfortunately JavaScript is case sensitive) presumably stands for Tool Pane, and ShowToolPane is the specific method that we are executing. The required ViewID parameter identifies which Tool Pane view to show:

ViewID	Tool Pane view to show
-1	Extensible View
0	Close task pane
1	Web Part Properties and Custom ToolParts
2	Add Web Parts – Browse
3	Add Web Parts – Search
4	Navigation (Downlevel only)
5	Add Web Parts – Import
6	Web Part Menu (Downlevel only)
7	Error

Using Javascript to Hide fields in Editform.aspx and Newform.aspx

Methods of Hiding column entry tab from newform.aspx and editform.aspx forms

Method 1 : The first solution is to customize NewForm.aspx from SharePoint Designer and replace the default list form with Custom List Form, in which you can remove the fields you don't need.

Method 2 : Next is to customize NewForm.aspx and add a JavaScript code that hides the whole row the field is placed.

We have implemented method 2 for the system implementation. We will discuss it in detail.

getTagFromIdentifierAndTitle

The most important part of our solution is the “getTagFromIdentifier” function. This function finds the HTML element rendered by a given SharePoint FormField control. It takes the following parameters:

• tagName – The name of the tag rendered in the form’s HTML
• identifier – The string associated with the SharePoint type of the relevant field
• title – The value of the relevant HTML tag’s “title” attribute, which also matches the field’s display name

Here’s a partial table of SharePoint column types and their corresponding “identifiers” and “tagNames”:

SharePoint Field Type	Identifier	tagName
Single Line of Text	TextField	input
Multiple Lines of Text	TextField	textarea
Number	TextField	input
Currency	TextField	input
Choice (dropdown)	DropDownChoice	select
Lookup (single)	Lookup	select
Lookup (multiple)	SelectCandidate; SelectResult	select
Yes/No	BooleanField	input
Date Time	DateTimeFieldDate	input

For hiding “Assigned to” field:: getTagFromIdentifierAndTitle("div", "", "People Picker");

JavaScript code :

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("hideFields");

function hideFields() {

var control = getTagFromIdentifierAndTitle("TAGNAME","IDENTIFIER","FIELD NAME");

control.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.style.display="none";

}

function getTagFromIdentifierAndTitle(tagName, identifier, title)

{

var len = identifier.length;

var tags = document.getElementsByTagName(tagName);

for (var i=0; i[tags.length; i++)

{

var tempString = tags[i].id;

if (tags[i].title == title && (identifier == ""

tempString.indexOf(identifier) == tempString.length - len))

{

return tags[i];

}

}

return null;

}
