Validation javascript for an event in an Adobe form field

Hello,

 

I'm trying to write a validation javascript that yields blank in the field if the other fields are blank.  Right now the result could yield a positive or negative number, which is fine.  But if nothing is in the fields it would be nice to not have a zero as a result.  Here is the script that i came up with.  Thank you (AS ALWAYS) for your input.

 

if (event.value == "") event.value = "";

I'm assuming your field is calculated from other fields and also formatted as a number but you don't want the zero to show?

Change your script to the following and enter at the end of your calculation script, instead of validation:

if(event.value==0)event.value="";
