hello

i have 3 lines

                this.getField("Sector2").value +"\n" +

                this.getField("Sector3").value + "\n" +

                this.getField("Sector4").value + "\n";

but sometime "Sector3" value equal empty so the line break still show like:

-sector2

-Sector4

i want remove the line break when "Sector3" value equal empty to be like:

-sector2

-sector4

thank you in advance

Then you need to append the values directly to the cBody string, like this:

var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your report.\n\n" + 
"CONTENT:\n\n" +
"- Dispatch Release Sector 1\n";
if (this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString!="")
    cBody+="- Dispatch Release Sector 2: "+this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString+"\n";
if (this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString!="")
    cBody+="- Dispatch Release Sector 3: "+this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString+"\n";
if (this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString!="")
    cBody+="- Dispatch Release Sector 4: "+this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString+"\n";
this.mailDoc({cMsg: cBody});

You can do it like this:

var s = "";

if (this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString!="") s+=this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString+"\n";

The variable s will hold your full text at the end.

var D2 = "- Dispatch Release Sector 2";

var D3 = "- Dispatch Release Sector 3";

var D4 = "- Dispatch Release Sector 4";

var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your report.\n\n"

               "CONTENT:"+ "\n\n" +

               "- Dispatch Release Sector 1\n";

if (this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString!="") D2+=this.getField("Sector2").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString!="") D3+=this.getField("Sector3").valueAsString+"\n";

if (this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString!="") D4+=this.getField("Sector4").valueAsString+"\n";
