When checkbox is checked, disable other checkboxes
Copy link to clipboard
Copied
Hi,
I've read an earlier discussion about disabel checkboxes but the discussion was to advanced for a rookie like me,
so please, in a very beginner-friendly way, please explain with a javascript how to do the following:
(In Adobe Acrobate DC I'm doing a fillabe form.)
There are three checkboxes named: checkbox1, checkbox2 and checkbox3.
I wish the following to happen:
When checkbox1 is checked:
- then checkbox2 and checkbox3 become disabled (by disabled I mean the checkboxes become not checkable/not clickable)
and
- also at the same time checkbox2 and checkbox3 become unchecked if they were earlier checked.
Thanks
/Dennis

A custom JavaScript for the "Mouse Up" action:
// set readonly property based on the value of this field compared to "Off";
this.getField("checkbox2").readonly = (event.target.value != "Off");
this.getField("checkbox3").readonly = (event.target.value != "Off");

Thanks a lot gkaiseril,the script is working well
.
Is it possible though to get checkbox2 and checkbox3 unchecked (if they were previously checked) when they become disabled by checking checkbox1?
