line break in javascript pdf

[heidsterv]

Hi,

I want a text to autopopulate based on the choices of two dropdown menus. The \r pagebreak isn't working. Anyone can help me?

if ((f.valueAsString=="choice1") && (g.valueAsString == "choiceA")) event.value = "First line of text\rSecond line of text.";

 var f = this.getField("Dropdown1"); var g = this.getField("Dropdown2"); if ((f.valueAsString=="Cucumbers") && (g.valueAsString == "Spidermite")) event.value = "First line\rSecond line.";

Enable the multi line option of the text field.

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
