Set textbox value based on multiple other form fields

Question

I am working on a form that has a required question with multiple choices. If any one of the choices is completed, the question is considered answered. I am attempting to create a hidden field that would work as the check to validate that the question was answered. I would also like if one of the multi-choice fields is cleared out that the hidden test field also clears out. The multiple choices consist of one checkbox and three text fields.

Could someone please assist in correcting ?

var a = this.getField("Checkbox1");

var b = this.getField("TextField1");

var c = this.getField("TextField2");

var d = this.getField("TextField3");

if (a.value=="On"){

event.value = "On";

}

else if (a.value==""){

event.value = "";

}

else if (b.value){

(event.value = b.value);

}

else if (c.value){

event.value = c.value;

}

else if (d.value){

event.value = d.value;

}

else{

event.value = "";

}

If I understood you correctly, you can try this:

var a = this.getField("Checkbox1").valueAsString;
var b = this.getField("TextField1").valueAsString;
var c = this.getField("TextField2").valueAsString;
var d = this.getField("TextField3").valueAsString;
if (a=="Off" || b=="" || c=="" || d=="") event.value = "";
else event.value = "OK";

The actual value of the field doesn't matter, as long as it's filled in, since it's hidden.
