Pop Up with yes/no question AFTER a text field has reached its character limit

Question

Hello,I am pretty sure this is some intensive code so apologies in advance.  I am trying to have a pop-up appear with a yes/no question after a text field has reached its max character limit; depending on how the question is answered, I'll also need to set the focus to another text field.   For example: I'll have the user fill in a Zip Code.  Immediatley after that, I want a pop-up to appear that asks if the user has a different mailing address.  If the user selects yes, there is a readied field (outside of the pop-up)  that I would like the focus to go to titled: Street Address.  If the user selects no, I would like the focus to go to a field titled: Agent ID.

Change the first line to:if (AFMergeChange(event).length==event.target.charLimit) {The code will "disappear" after you enter it, but will still work.However, when the dialog appears the last character entered will not be visible. I have yet to find a way around that...

You can use this code as the field's custom Keystroke script:

if (event.fieldFull) {
	if (app.alert("Do you have a different mailing address?",2,2)==4) this.getField("Street Address").setFocus();
	else this.getField("Agent ID").setFocus();
}
