Interactiv PDF (Formular field) problem

[davidb_lucerne]

I have a problem with an interactive PDF.
Only the corresponding number (no other) may appear in the fields (3x3). Fields 1-8 work. But not the 9. Anyone know why?

See here download: Interaktives PDF

A 9 in the arbitrary mask allows every number.

[davidb_lucerne]

yes, but why except 9?

[Bernd Alheit]

There has the 9 a special meaning.

[Nesa Nurani]

Use this as 'Custom keystroke script' in field for number 9:

var x = /^9*$/.test(event.change);
if(!x)
app.alert('The value entered does not match the format of the field = "9"');
event.rc = /^9*$/.test(event.change);

many thanks
okey, but i dont know, where i put this java...can you explain? Or do it in the PDF ;)?

[Nesa Nurani]

In the 'Format' tab, select 'Custom' and where it says 'Custom keystroke script' click on 'Edit' and paste script inside.

Hi,

With this script, you can type several 9 in the box!

You can only allow one 9 number in the box with this custom keystroke script:

if(!event.willCommit) {
	event.rc=/^9$/.test(event.value+event.change)==true || event.change=="";
}

or this one if you wish a message:

if(!event.willCommit) {
	if (!(/^9$/.test(event.value+event.change)==true || event.change=="")) {
		event.rc=false;
		app.alert("You only must type a 9 in this box.",3);
	}
}
