Question

I have already written script for disabling the signature field until 5 other fields have been completed. But I don't know how to do that with 5 buttons I have.

This is my current script:

if(event.value != ""
&& this.getField("Name").value != ""
&& this.getField("Phone Number").value != ""
&& this.getField("Email Address").value != ""
&& this.getField("Directorate").value != "Select from Dropdown") {
this.getField("User's Signature").readonly = false;
} else {
this.getField(User's Signature").readonly = true;
}

You can set the buttons also as readonly.

My apologies, my question wasn't clear.  The user will need to answer the first 5 "fillable" questions (One of them being a dropdown menu) and the other 5 "button" questions, they need to select either YES, NO, or N/A.  Once they've completed all 10 questions, the digital signature button will be available.

Yes, my bad.  Radio buttons.


OK, the default value of a radio-button group when no specific field in it is selected is "Off", so you can just add it to your current code, just like the text fields or drop-downs.

A better way, IMO, is to compare the value to the default value, instead of hard-coding those values into your code. If the value equals the defaultValue, that means the field has not been filled in.
