How to add Java Script in Adobe DC pro

[Guest]

Hi all! I know this question has been asked to death by now but I was unable to find the answer. Any who, I'm trying to add a bloody script for a pre made form to make all Field mandatory and give it a pop up as well! Also how do I apply this to the form itself? I have Java enabled on Adobe DC pro.

I'm not sure if this right code

f = getField(event.target.name)

if (f.value.length == 0)

    {

    f.setFocus()

    //Optional Message - Comment out the next line to remove

    app.alert("This field is required. Please enter a value.")

    }

I got this from Adobe's Acrobat 8 developers tips, wondering if this also works in DC pro as well.  if this code is no good can someone post be the right code please and thank you.

Should work just fine in Acrobat DC.

Okay, however how do I apply to said form? I'm in Java right now but have no clue how to apply it. I go into the PDF that on adobe 8 developer tips for this I can edit the form and I can see text field properties and there bar called Actions where you can add the script to. However when I go back to my form I don't see the action bar in text field properties, perhaps I don't have something enabled correctly on my form?
