Javascript to hide/show text field

I am completely new to doing javascript, and I am trying to complete a form to show or hide a particular text field. I know there are posts on performing the hide/show condition with a checkbox using javascript; and if all else fails I will use this.

However, I am wondering if it is possible for hiding or showing a text field using a date picker field? For example, If the date field is blank, I want the text field to show, and if a date is selected the text field goes away. Then, if the date field is cleared out, the text field reappears. Make sense?

Thank you,

TJ

No, it will not hide the date field. it will hide the other field, if you enter its name in the part in quotes where I put "Name of other field"...

Try this:

if (this.getField("Date6_af_date").value == "");

{

this.getField("Text1").display = display.hidden;

}

else

{

this.getField("Text1").display = display.visible;

}

Thank you JR for your recommendation. Try67's worked correctly once I realized I made a mistake when I entered the field name.

Sure, that's possible.

As the custom Validation script of the date field enter the following:

this.getField("Name of other field").display = (event.value=="") ? display.visible: display.hidden;

Thank you Try67. This will hide my date field, however, I am looking for hiding a different text field when a date is selected.

So, I though if I did the following as an if statement, might do what I am looking for.

if(the.getField("Date6_af_date").display=(event.value==""));

{

this.getField("Text1").display = display.hidden;

}

else

{

this.getField("Text1").display = display.visible;

}

But I get a Syntax Error. So I am missing something
