I don't know if this can even be done but I have created a custom dialog box with checkboxes. What I would like to do is that if a specific box is check that new radial buttons display for selection under that checkbox.

Kind of like hidden fields that display based on a checkbox.

Can this be done if so can someone point me in the right direction?

thanks,

sarah

If you want multiple check boxes within a pop-up, then you are going to have to program the dialog object. But I do not think you will have elements of the dialog object dynamically appearing since JavaScirpt is an interpreted language and trying to change the dialog window on the fly would not be possible as the window would need to be redrawn. I do not see any properties or attributes for the dialog object elements that support a 'hidden' property or attribute.

Programming the dialog object is very complex, so you might want to look at [url=http://www.windjack.com/|Windjack Solutions]AcroDialogs product.

Thank you for your response. That is what I was looking for a hidden property.

I will go to plan B.
