Still cannot figure this out.

Question

I have a section with 5 checkbox choices. I need them to start all as required, but once, one of any of the 5 choices is selected, the required and red outline goes away for the other 4 remaining choices please. I am very confused how to use the .value option for a group of check boxes. I had thought just that alone, would un-red the remailing 4, once any of the others are selected. It should be noted, even though, I want the required red outline to go away, I still want the other 4 boxes to be able to be selected please.

I am also having a hard time with a simpler one. I have a text box, that if anything is entered, I need a word endered into another text box please.

Thank you in advance.

You can use this code as the custom calculation script of a (hidden) text field:

var fields = ["Checkbox1", "Checkbox2"]; // enter the actual field names here
var isFilled = false;
for (var i in fields) {
	var f = this.getField(fields[i]);
	if (f.valueAsString!="Off") isFilled = true;
}
for (var i in fields) {
	var f = this.getField(fields[i]);
	f.required = !isFilled;
}
