You can't put it only there. If you do, it needs to be in a function, and that function needs to be called from the field. I recommend using Thom's code from above.

You're missing a closing curly bracket at the end, but I assume that's a copy&paste error, or the code wouldn't be accepted at all.

Where did you place the code?

Did you check the JS Console after it executed, to see if there are any error messages?

The code itself seems fine, but if you didn't enter the field names or values correctly, for example, that would trigger an error.
