Correct answer brawal

Hi Kim,

You can apply the following script on the "Mouse Up" Action of the radio buttons.

Suppose you have 2 radio buttons A and B and you want to make the Text field (Text2) required when A is selected, you can add "Run a JavaScript" action on the

Mouse Up trigger of Button A:

if(event.target.value == "A") {

this.getField("Text2").required = true;

}

Mouse Up trigger of Button B:

if(event.target.value == "B") {

this.getField("Text2").required = false;

}

Please check this form for more.

Regards,

BR

    BR,

    Thank you so much for the incredibly quick reply.  That worked perfectly for my radio buttons, but I have one checkbox that if it is checked, the field below is required.  It does work, but if the person changes their mind and un-checks it, the option (which is a radio button) still remains required after unchecking.

    Thank you again for your time.

    Kim

    Hi Kim,

    If I understood your query correctly, you have a check box, and then 2 radio buttons, if you check the check box, you should be able to make a choice between the 2 radio buttons, and when you select a particular radio button, a text field should become required. On un-checking the check box, the field should be optional, and the radio buttons should not have any option selected. (Please correct me if I got it wrong)

    To do this, you can add this Java script on the "Mouse Up" trigger of the CheckBox:

    if(event.target.value == "Yes") {

    this.getField("Group1").value = "A";

    this.getField("Text2").required = true;

    }

    else

    {

    this.getField("Group1").value = "";

    this.getField("Text2").required = false;

    }

    Keep the previous script (on the radio buttons) untouched.

    Please see this form.
