Question

Non working calculated fields and JavaScript warning

I'm working on a fillable order form originated in Excel and imported into Acrobat with the form filler function activated. I found a Java Script on YouTube that removed all the tool tips. I know ZIP  about JavaScript but followed the video instructions and the tool tips are gone.

 

I've proceeded to create the calculated field that is the product of the amount of items ordered and the item price. Most of my entries are working and some with the correct data are not working.

 

I am also getting an error message, Warning JavaScript Window "The value entered does not match the format of the field (Item 14040)on most entries."  This is the most ambitious fillable I've attempted and I'm on a deadline, and it seems that I'm getting nowhere fast so any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks to those who know more than me.
Joe

If your other field names are similar to this one ("Item 14040") that might cause an issue with the automatic calculations, because of the free-standing number it contains. You would probably need to use a script to perform them correctly.

How is that done?

What calculation do you want to implement?

Set the format of this field to None. What value does you see in this field?

Numbers, I had an idea that could be the issue. The only format necessary I'm thinking the total field.
thanks,
