Calculation resulting from checkbox selection in pdf

// Add this script to the "Custom Calculation Script" of the total field

var total = 0;

// Function to update total based on checkbox selections
function updateTotal() {
total = 0;

// Check each checkbox and update total accordingly
if (this.getField("fullPageAd").value === "Yes") {
if (this.getField("exhibitor").value === "Yes") {
total += 500; // Full page ad exhibitor fee
} else {
total += 750; // Full page ad non-exhibitor fee
}
}

// Add more conditions for other checkboxes if needed

// Update the total field
this.getField("totalField").value = total;
}

// Set up event listeners for each checkbox
this.getField("fullPageAd").setAction("MouseUp", updateTotal);
this.getField("exhibitor").setAction("MouseUp", updateTotal);

// Add more event listeners for other checkboxes as needed

I am trying to do something similar but I think I am missing something.

Mine seems like it would be basic.

Text 1 = Text 2 +(5 if Checkbox 1 is checked) + (5 if Checkbox 2 is checked) + Text 3 + Text 4

Hi there

I've been searching the community and this thread is the closest I found regarding what I'm trying to achieve. I am very rusty with my script knowledge as I haven't practiced it for years; I'm practically beginner level at this point. I have a similar situation where I have a list of services (with checkboxes) that have the same pricing; however, I do want multiple selections added up to a total. 

The form allows the client to choose from 3 Service Package deals (Packages 1 to 3). Currently I have these as radio buttons where they can only select one. For the sake of math I'll keep the pricing simple: Packages 1 to 3 are $5000, $3000, and $1000 respectively. Each service package offers discounts on additional services. Package1 offers $1000 discount, Package2 $500, and Package3 no discount. The group of radio buttons is named "Group1" and their button choices are 1, 2, & 3 respectively.

There are 5 additional services, Services A to E. The client filling up the form can choose to select as many services, including none. Each service costs $500. However, depending on the Package deal they selected earlier in the form (Packages 1 to 3), they get 2 ($1000) or 1 ($500) services discounted. I would like to autofill the text field named "TotalExtras" so the client would instantly know how much extra on top of the base Package they have chosen.

First Example:

Client selects Package2 for $3000 (which will discount $500 from total extras). The client continues to next section and selects three additional services, say A, B & D. So the three choices should total $1500 ($500 each). But because they have chosen Package2, the autofill total in the TotalExtras text field should read "$1000" ($1500 additional services minus $500 Package2 discount). 

Second Example:

Client selects Package1 for $5000 (which will discount $1000 from total extras). The client continues to next section and selects only one additional service, they choose C. The single choice should total $500. But because they have chosen Package1, the autofill total in the TotalExtras text field should read "$0" ($500 additional services minus $1000 Package1 discount). The total for this TotalExtras field should never be negative and there is no option to go lower than the base price of the chosen Package.

Is this posssible? Or am I asking for too much? Also, am I supposed to have all the checkboxes under one name? They all currently have separate names.

Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to do a similar thing but I'm having trouble adapting the following code to my situation...

event.value = 0;

if (this.getField("CheckBox1#0").value!="Off") event.value=120;

else if (this.getField("CheckBox1#1").value!="Off") event.value=450;

I have a suspicion it's because I'm using multiple checkboxes that have the same name but with different export values (to simulate radio button operation) and the checkbox name has a # in it.

Am I able to replace the checkbox name "CheckBox1#0" with the export value instead?

Also, to make matters worse I have 5 checkboxes that can all be different values (although 2 are the same) and I need the textbox to display the value of the selected checkbox.

I assume it's something like this (although I'm sure the syntax is incorrect)...

event.value = 0;

if (this.getField("CheckBox1#0").value!="Off") event.value=120;

else if (this.getField("CheckBox1#1").value!="Off") event.value=450;

else if (this.getField("CheckBox1#2").value!="Off") event.value=200;

else if (this.getField("CheckBox1#3").value!="Off") event.value=300;

else if (this.getField("CheckBox1#4").value!="Off") event.value=450;

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, that's easily done. For example, let's say you have a check-box called "Checkbox1" and you want to populate a field called "Text1" with 500 if it's checked, and zero otherwise.

Use this code as the custom calculation script of Text1:

event.value = (this.getField("Checkbox1").value=="Off") ? 0 : 500;
