Hi all,

I wonder if anyone might be so kind as to help me with a query with a linked dropped down box? Its based on an example created that links a country to provinces (USA and Canada). I am trying to link academic schools and particular discipline areas. Would anyone be able to take a quick look if I send the form, please? For some reason I cannot get the second box to link to the first. I'm new to scripting and have used an existing example to base my form on. No idea why it does not work!

Any help greatly appreciated.

Here is the link to my form that I have uploaded - https://acrobat.com/#d=dNRf9caK2thxxI1yZGTjKQ

Thanks,

Ken

I'm having trouble deciphering the arrays.
Can you post the first two examples from your form.
What would be in drop list one and what would appear in #2

Have you looked in the console window to see if there are any reported errors? This is the first thing you should always do. See this Article: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/why-doesnt-my-script-work

One of the issues with this form is that a field is being improperly referenced in the change event for the country drop down. You may want to watch this video:

Thanks all. Think I have managed to sort it. There was an error in the script!

Best wishes,

Ken
