I've nearly finished a large Acrobat form but I've been pulling my hair out trying to get this last thing to work. This is the first project I've worked with javascript on, so I've basically learnt what I know by searching bits of code and putting them together.

If any javascript experts can help (this may be pretty amateur), how can I show a hidden text field after a certain date? say 8 weeks time.

You can create an document-level script that checks the current date and decides whether to hide the field or not. The question is, based on what you want to decide what's the "start date"? The easiest solution is to hard-code it.
