How to make the fields from the drop-down list required to make a selection before you save a PDF file

I have a PDF form where I entered a JAVA script in some areas by using the option ON BLUR under 'Actions' and it works very well to prevent users to go to another site if they leave the field with the empty JAVA Script in place.

My question is that I have other form fields that have a drop down menu where they can choose several options. I would also like to make these fields to where they can't move forward on the form unless they choose an option in the list. However, because with the option in the list "choose a ' is a default option entered into the field (field is not empty), script JAVA of BLUR ON option I used in my empty fields does not work to block the user to move beyond the matter without selecting an option. They are able to save the form with all the drop down menus staying to 'pick '.

I made the field "Required fields" then they are highlighted with the red area around, but is there another tool to force them to choose an option for each in the drop down menus before you save the form, instead of being able to save with leaving the 'choose One' in the field by default?

The best way to do this without knowing the default value of the field is to compare the value of the field to the default value of the field... You must make sure that your default value is not part of the possible acceptable answer. It works with most of the field types that a user can fill.

If (event.value! = event.defaultValue) {}

do something;

App.Alert ("required field not completed. \nField name: "+ event.target.name, 1, 0);

}

  • How to use the drop-down list box to fill in a text box

    I'm a beginner when it comes to Java Script.  I have seen a lot of different discussions, look at a lot of articles "helping" Acrobat 9 and Java Script, but only to be left confused and dazed.  I hope someone can tell me how to write a script that fills a text box that sits on my form with the value of exports of the selection in the combo box...

    Thank you

    If you want that the read-only text box, simply set with the following custom calculate script:

    Set this field to the value of the drop-down list box

    Event.Value = getField("combo1").value;

    but replace "combo1' with the actual name of the combo box field.

    If you want something else, post again with more information.

  • How to fill the drop-down list components installed?

    I have installed Eclipse and the blackberry for eclipse plugin that includes the component pack 4.5.0. I have installed all of the components listed on this page: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/developers/javaappdev/javaeclipseplug.jsp. The versions 4.2.1 and 4.3.0 are zip files that I add to Eclipse by using the software update-> add the site-> archive. Version 4.6.0 and 4.6.1 4.7.0 are exe files that settle in the location C:\Program Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE component Package 4.x.x.

    In the folder plugins on the box, I see version 4.3.0 and listed 4.5.0 4.2.1. When I go on Blackberry JDE-> installed components and click the drop-down list box, the only pack component that I see is 4.5.0. How do the other components packs appear?

    Well it's resolved, I guess. After about 3 hours, the software updates-> add the site-> repository for the Blackberry update works. When I installed the components as a result, they appear in the drop-down list. It's a little confusing, because I already tried this at least 5 times and each time before eclipse was a java error when doing this.

  • Why don't point in the drop-down list address not remove when selected and click on remove

    on version 14.1 - to remove an item in the drop-down address, said the point the address line the right click and select delete - this clears the address line but point remains in the drop-down list and does disappear not - why point unclear when you return to fall down to check this

    the system is XP and ff 14.1

    I think that you need for the arrow down to the element, so it is highlighted, and then press DELETE.

    (I meant the keyboard delete key, you can't right click on the drop-down list).

    Hello

    You can create the same drop-down list using the ToolTip Widget composition but the only way that you can add on turnover and deployment will be discoloration.

    Please check the attached file. http://adobe.ly/1IxxKfO

    Another alternative is to create a lively border animation and use it in Muse as a file OAM.

  • How to hide the drop-down list of the Chat pane

    Hello

    I had provided that I don't want the combobox associated the SimpleChat component and the text "user typing" is anyway to hide those. ?

    Hello

    My advice for your case would be to build your own simpleChat UI with the simpleChatModel that we provide and you can have the freedom to do whatever the desired user interface. Our example of SimpleChat folder samepleApps built a UI using the SimpleChatModel cat.

    However, if you feel to follow the path of quick fix, you can simply override the createChildren() or other functions in your subclass of CustomSimpleChat of SimpleChat and use only visible/hide no matter which component. You can look at the source code for player 9 in SimpleChat for more details. Its useful as a reference in many cases the same if you use Player 10 swc.

    For your specific case, you can do this in your subclass

    Override protected function createChildren() (): void

    {

    super.createChildren ();

    {if (_toCombo)}

    _toCombo.visible = false; to make the invisible combobox

    }

    }

    Override protected function commitProperties (): void

    {

    super.commitProperties ();

    If {(_typingLabel)

    _typingLabel.visible = false; to make typing invisible label

    }

    }
