Form fill colour on focus/blur

Question

Hi,I'm a bit stuck with a form I have been given with some Javascript that has both on focus and on blur triggers. The downside to this is that each field needs to have two Javascript tigger set, which gets super time consuming on a large form.  What I would like is it to is fill the yellow on focus and then set back to trasparent in the same bit of code (saving me from having to add the on Blur trigger) or set when it printing the document to be transparent but i'm not sure if that is possible?. below is the code that has been used in these old forms i'm updating. function HiLite(){if (app.viewerVersion > 4.05){var MyField = event.target;var rgEmptyTest = /^\s*$/;color.ltYellow = new Array("RGB",1,0.994,0.820);if(event.name == "Focus"){if(MyField.type == "button"){MyField.borderColor = color.red;}else{MyField.fillColor = color.ltYellow;}}else if(event.name == "Blur"){if(rgEmptyTest.test(event.value)){MyField.fillColor = color.transparent;MyField.borderColor = color.transparent;}else{MyField.fillColor = color.transparent;MyField.borderColor = color.transparent;}}}}

oh also relised I need to apply an exclusion to a few other fields that have set colour as well that i don't want changed it it possible just to exclude those 4 field names ("SignField", "Save", "Clear" And "Print") from the loop?

Try this:

var fieldsToExclude = ["SignField", "Save", "Clear", "Print"];
for (var i=0; i<this.numFields; i++) {
	var fname = this.getNthFieldName(i);
	if (fieldsToExclude.indexOf(fname)!=-1) continue;
	var f = this.getField(fname);
	f.setAction("OnFocus", "HiLite();");
	f.setAction("OnBlur", "HiLite();");
}
