How to check a form is new or not using code ?

Hello @SUKUMARAN_BV,

In Javascript :

if (frm.is_new()) {
}

In Python:

if doc.is_new():

Difference of is_new() and __islocal

Continuing the discussion from __islocal equivalent in server side script: I know that __islocal depends on flag 1 or 0 and it is not yet in database. But is_new() is on server side so I guess it should be in database. My question is what make a doc is_new? Is it based on flag too, or on time? Thanks
