I have a drop down box on my form that has all the state abbreviations, I do not know how to get the form to only charge Sales tax on FL only from the drop box.

 

Thank You for any help.

if(st == "FL")//put your tax calculation here

The code below worked in form the tax wasn't working on mobile version of adobe reader. Is there a better or different way to write this so it works on mobile to? I am new to this!

 

var st = this.getField("State").valueAsString;
var sub = Number(this.getField("Subtotal").valueAsString);
var dis = Number(this.getField("Discounts").valueAsString);
var ship = Number(this.getField("Shipping").valueAsString);
var total = 0;
if(st == "FL")
total = (sub+dis+ship)*(.07)
else
total = 0;
event.value = total;

JavaScript is not fully supported on mobile, so script won't work there.
