Hello, all. I am working on a fillable form in Adobe X Pro (Version 10.0.3).
I used a custom keystroke code to make the options available in one combo box dependent on the value selected in another. Unfortunately, the values don't show up in the second combo box once the first value is selected. I was sure to make all the first box's options output sequentially starting at 0. Can anyone see any problems with the code below or offer any suggestions to make this work?
//Custom Keystroke script for combo box
(function () {
if (!event.willCommit) {
//Set up an array for arrays of specific triggers corresponding to the export values in this combo box
var aTriggers = [];
aTriggers[0] = ["NA", "1a. Relay board single conductor", "1b. Relay board two conductors", "1c. Circuit board, data over wire", "2a. Multi-component no circuit board, TCR", "2b. Multi-component no circuit board, SCR", "3a. Single transistor", "3b. Single SCR", "3c. Single relay", "4a. Camera flash firing device (high voltage)", "4b.

aTrigger[2]=["NA", "1. Clothes pin", "2. Switch", "X. OTHER"];

aTrigger[4]=["NA", "1. Mechanical clock mechanism", "2. Water displacement timer", "X. OTHER"];
aTrigger[5] = ["NA", "1. Pyrotechnic", "X. OTHER"];
aTrigger[6] = ["NA", "1. Custom circuit/board", "2. Electronic clock mechanism", "X. OTHER"];
aTrigger[7] = ["NA", "1a. Switch, button switch", "1b. Switch, pedal", "2. Pressure, no metallic contacts", "3a. Plate, ball bearing contacts", "3b. Plate, saw blade contacts", "3c.

aTrigger[12] = ["NA", "1. Pull/Release", "2. Release", "X. OTHER"];//Get the export value of the selected item
var ex_val = event.changeEx;
//Populate the combo box field with the triggers
getField("Switch2").setItems(aTrigger[ex_val]);
}
})();
What are the optional values for the first drop down box?
Do you have the 'commit immediately' option selected for the first combo box?
Do you have all the field names and variable names pro pertly spelled and capitalized?
Are the variables "aTrigger" and "aTriggers" the same variable or different variables?
A sample of the form would be helpful.
