Making fields un required if the are hidden:
I have some required fields that are visible when users click radio payment options, otherwise hidden. I need to have those hidden required fields become un required, so the form submits. I have tried everything I can think of and can not figure out how to make them un required when hidden. Here is the code javascript
I’m using:
// moCode radio button
EmailSubmitButtonM.presence = "visible";
MoCode.presence = "visible";
AuthMoCodeSignatory.presence = "visible";
AuthSignEmail.presence = "visible";
EmailSubmitButtonU.presence = "hidden";
UniCardNumber.presence = "hidden";
AuthUniCardSignatory.presence = "hidden";
ExpDate.presence = "hidden";
// Unicard radio button
EmailSubmitButtonU.presence = "visible";
AuthUniCardSignatory.presence = "visible";
UniCardNumber.presence = "visible";
ExpDate.presence = "visible";
EmailSubmitButtonM.presence = "hidden";
AuthMoCodeSignatory.presence = "hidden";
AuthSignEmail.presence = "hidden";
MoCode.presence = "hidden";
Thanks, Brennan

Nope, I just checked, it's the same in Acrobat 7.

Thom,
Thanks for your response.
Since I have two different submit buttons that appear and disappear, I put the code below
I put
MoCode.mandatory="disabled";
AuthSignEmail.mandatory="disabled";
AuthMoCodeSignatory.mandatory="disabled";
in the preSubmit event of one submit buttons. It's working good because even after the user changes payment options nothing is disabled until right before they submit, otherwise it was disabling and not reactivating the required fields.
Thanks, again. Brennan

EX:
EmailSubmitButtonM.presence = "hidden";
EmailSubmitButtonM.mandatory= "error";
ExpDate.presence = "visible";
ExpDate.mandatory= "disabled";
This is a little differnt in Acrobat 7
