There must be a way to change the caption or title of a button via JavaScript in LiveCycle designer. I just can't find anything to give me a clue as to how to do that. Can anyone shed some light as to how to do this?

Example:
A button that toggles back and forth to say "Hide" or "Show".

This code sample will switch between the two captions:

if (this.resolveNode("caption.value.#text").value == "Show"){this.resolveNode("caption.value.#text").value = "Hide";}else if (this.resolveNode("caption.value.#text").value == "Hide"){this.resolveNode("caption.value.#text").value = "Show";}

That is it. I couldn't find anything in the LiveCycle Designer Help to get me anywhere. Thanks a bunch for getting me this.
