Signature completes and then required fields identified

[brettt25731202]

My form has required fields and I want to identify blanks before applying the electronic signature and then emailing.

I need the JS to work in the following order

1. Check for blank required fields

2. If complete apply signature and then save the file

3. Prompt emailing the document

I am using the following Java Script in the Digital Signature Properties under the Signed tab.

The end user will use DC reader.

Thanks for the help.

var requiredFields = new Array();

for (var i = 0; i < this.numFields; i++)

{

var fName = this.getNthFieldName(i);

var f = this.getField(fName);

if (f.type!="button" && this.getField(fName).required && (this.getField(fName).value == null || this.getField(fName).value == ''))

{

requiredFields[requiredFields.length] = fName;}}

var error = "Please complete the following fields: \n\n";

for (j=0; j < requiredFields.length; j++)

{

if (requiredFields.value == null)

{

error = error + requiredFields + '\n';

var f2 = this.getField(requiredFields);

f2.setFocus();

}

}

if(requiredFields.length > 0)

app.alert(error);

for(var i=0;i<this.numFields;i++)

{

    var cFldName = this.getNthFieldName(i);

    var oFld = this.getField(cFldName);

    if(oFld.required && (oFld.defaultValue == oFld.value))

    {

        app.alert("Field " + cFldName + " is empty");

    }

}

for (var i = 0 ; i < this.numFields ; i++) {

var f = this.getField(this.getNthFieldName(i)) ;

if (f.type!= "signature") //

{

f.readonly = true ;

}

}

this.mailDoc({cTo:"", cSubject: "Purchase Request",  cMsg: "Please review and electronically Sign Document"});

You must check the fields before signing the document.

[brettt25731202]

Sorry, but I need a little more help, I am fairly new to Java script.  How do I get the fields checked prior to signature?  Whats the forcing function?  Otherwise people will submit incomplete documents.

[Bernd Alheit]

You can add the code to a form button.

[brettt25731202]

Is there a way to have that button hidden after the signature.  That might work, I was just hoping to have it all triggered by the signature.

[Bernd Alheit]

Checking the required fields after signing the document makes no sense.

[brettt25731202]

I created the button to validate the required fields.  I would like to hide the signature field and make it visible when all the required fields have been validated.  What do I need to add and where do I need to add it to the below JS?

Thanks you
