validateField client event doen't work properly in Chrome

Question

I'm trying to validate 'vatregnumber' field on the Vendor record, Here is my sample code. It works in Mozilla but in Chrome it messages infinite loop.

function clientValidateField(type, name, linenum) {
    if (name === 'vatregnumber') {
        var isValid = validateTaxNum();  // a function returns boolean. If it returns false it gives an alert message. //
        return isValid;
    }

    return true; 
}

I agree that this similar question has been asked, but is there any way to slove these kind of troubles

You have the `return true;` statement outside of both `if` blocks - is this what you want? Not sure whether it could cause the issue you're talking about, but if I understand what you're trying to do, you should have the `return true;` just before the last closing brace `}` otherwise it will return true on every other field too. — Krypton, May 05 '17 at 12:28
yeah, you are right. I tried as you said, but anything is changed, same inifinite message's occurs — niso, May 05 '17 at 13:44
That code should not create a loop. I've done lots of validation that works across browsers. Can you paste all of your code? Or at least the entire validation function? Do any other functions call the validate function? — bknights, May 05 '17 at 16:06
@bknights I cheked in Mozilla, it works as expected, I think there is no problem with the client script. Here is my code . `function clientValidateField(type, name, linenum) { if (name === 'vatregnumber') { var isValid = validateTaxNum(); // a function returns boolean. If it returns false, it gives an alert message. // return isValid; } return true; }` — niso, May 09 '17 at 06:49
yes, except it, I'm using validateLine and SaveRecord functions on the same form — niso, May 10 '17 at 13:45
I just came across [this question and comment](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/43268980/netsuite-suitescript-why-does-this-validate-field-script-enter-an-infinite-l); saying it's an issue in Chrome 57. — Krypton, May 11 '17 at 17:20
