Hi All,

I have a reset button to reset the entire form. But when "pushed". It resets everything execpt the hidded/visible choices made by a YES/NO radio button choice. The YES/NO radio choices work as expected in regards to hiding/unhiding the fields.
Can anyone assist me in clarifing why this is happening?

I am using DC.

Thank you,

T

If you place the code that determines whether to show/hide those fields as the calculation script of a (hidden) field then it will execute when you reset the form (like all calculation scripts) and you'll get two birds with one stone.

It would be best to use JavaScript in addition to (or instead of) the reset form action you're already using. A script can do the job of showing/hiding fields as well as setting field values.

A reset form action (or the resetForm JavaScript method) will simply set the field value of each included field to whatever the default value of each field is. It cannot (directly) control the visibility or other field properties of a group of fields.

It clears the radio buttons, nothing more.
