Check if in Service Portal or Classic UI, and display message (catalog client script)

 

if (typeof spModal != 'undefined') {

                     // Portal

                     spModal.alert(sAlertMessage);

                }

                else {

                     // Desktop UI

                     var gm = new GlideModal();

                     gm.setTitle("Warning");

                     gm.renderWithContent(sAlertMessage);

                }


see this catalog client script example:

function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
var sMsg = 'test the display message';
if (typeof spModal != 'undefined') {

// Portal

spModal.alert(sMsg);

} else {

// Desktop UI
var gm = new GlideModal();
gm.setTitle("Warning");
gm.renderWithContent(sMsg);

}

}

GlideRecord setValue

setValue(String name, Object value) Sets the specified field to the specified value. Normally a script would do a direct assignment, for example,  gr.category = value . However, if in a script the element name is a variable, then  gr.setValue(elementName, value)  can be used. When setting a value, ensure the data type of the field matches the data type of the value you enter. This method cannot be used on journal fields. If the value parameter is null, the record is not updated, and an error is not thrown https://developer.servicenow.com/app.do#!/api_doc?v=madrid&id=r_GlideRecord-setValue_String_Object
