Fillable Form Javascript

Hi,

I need to create a claim form but struggling with the java script to display the correct info.

1. The text box must display the amount being paid.

"Type1" is a drop down menu with 6 selections, how do I add the other 5 options information in the script? This is what I was thinking:

If ("Type1" = "PPC") then ("Text8" = "$120")

or

If ("Type1" = "APT") then ("Text8" = "R950")

2. I need to calculate the total amount for each currency in the 11 text boxes. What would the script be?

Thank you in advance for your help!

For #1 use the following code as the custom calculation script of "Text8":

var type1 = this.getField("Type1").valueAsString;

if (type1=="PPC") event.value = "$120";

else if (type1=="APT") event.value = "R950";

else event.value = "";

For #2, what are the names of the fields involved?

Total4

Total5

Total6

Total7

Total8

And then it must be displayed in TotalRand and TotalDollar

// TotalDollar calc script
var total = 0;
for (var i=1; i<=11; i++) {
	var f = this.getField("Total"+i);
	var v = f.valueAsString;
	if (/^\$/.test(v)) total+=Number(v.replace("$", ""));
}
event.value = total;

// TotalRand calc script
var total = 0;
for (var i=1; i<=11; i++) {
	var f = this.getField("Total"+i);
	var v = f.valueAsString;
	if (/^R/.test(v)) total+=Number(v.replace("R", ""));
}
event.value = total;
