Hide Submit PDF Button based on combination of filled in fields

Hey there ... I have a fillable PDF form that needs to be submitted using a Submit PDF button based on certain logic provided by my client:

 

There are 3 main fields in play

1) address field

2) phone field

3) email field

 

Client wants it so these scenarios happen at the same time:

#1 - address field filled in YES, phone and email NOT FILLED - result:  NO submit button

#2 - phone field filled in YES, address and email NOT FILLED - result:  NO submit button

#3 - email field filled in YES, address and phone NOT FILLED - result:  NO submit button

#4 - address AND phone fields FILLED YES, email field not filled - result:  YES submit button

#5 - address AND email fields FILLED YES, phone field not filled - result:  YES submit button

 

I have the following code written:

 

this.getField("Submit-Form").display = display.hidden;

var showSubmitForm1 = true;
var checkLength1a = this.getField("Defendant-Address").value.length;
var checkLength1b = this.getField("Defendant-Phone-Number").value.length;
var checkLength1c = this.getField("Defendant-Email-Address").value.length;

if(checkLength1a == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}
if(checkLength1b == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}
if(checkLength1c == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}

 

if(showSubmitForm1) {
this.getField("Submit-Form").display = display.visible;
}
else {
this.getField("Submit-Form").display = display.hidden;
}

 

*****************************

I think I may be missing the && statement somewhere to connect address + phone OR address + email fields but not sure.

 

Any help is most appreciated.

Have a great day.

Try use this part of script:

if(checkLength1a == 0 && checkLength1b == 0 && checkLength1c == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}
else if(checkLength1a != 0 && checkLength1b == 0 && checkLength1c == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}
else if(checkLength1a == 0 && checkLength1b != 0 && checkLength1c == 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}
else if(checkLength1a == 0 && checkLength1b == 0 && checkLength1c != 0) {
showSubmitForm1 = false;
}

What you want to happen if phone and email are filled?

This is really good but slightly off ...

PHONE and EMAIL are FILLED - Address is not filled = result:  NO Submit Button

 

I got it working using your logic but now, if ONLY the ADDRESS field is FILLED = result:  YES Submit Button which cannot happen ...

 

ONLY 3 instances where Submit = YES are:

1) ADDRESS + PHONE + EMAIL are filled

2) ADDRESS + PHONE are filled ( email blank )

3) ADDRESS + EMAIL are filled ( phone blank )

 

Thanks ... you rock this stuff!

Woody
