Hello,
I am trying to change a text box based on if a check box is checked, here's what I have in the calculate tab of the text box:

if (CheckBox53.rawValue == 1)

event.value = "Fail!";
}
else

event.value = "";
}

This does not seem to work, does anyone have any ideas?

NEW to Adobe. How to sum fields plus a static number?

I've built a simple PDF for gaming that calculates stats. However one number is a static "10" that must be added to 4 or 5 user input fields. I know how to add the fields, but I can't get the additional "10" that I need to show in the "Total" field.

I've never used Java and I don't know how to do this at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for such a "stupid" question.

Prevent user input

Merlin — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 01:08:37 +0000

Hi,

I use a text field which displays a pop-up menu on the mouse-down trigger to fill the field : this is OK.

Now, I need the user to not being able to delete nor to enter any character in the field, how can I prevent that ?

I guess that I need a custom keystroke script, so I tried it… but all my trials also prevent any input from the popup menu…

Can someone show me the right way?

Hello All,

I am hoping someone can help me with this. I am creating a script that searches for course codes and then creates a link to the registration page for each code found on a pdf document. The links are dynamic so I am passing the links in a string variable to the getURL method as follows.

{

Copy then flatten previous page

I don't know any javascript so if you can, please help me with a script.
I need to make a button at the botom of the page, that does these things:
- make a carbon copy of the page, after the existing one (just like Ctrl + drag in the Pages field) and then, flatten just that page, not the new copy that has been made.
