Hi,
I am creating a mental health pdf form survey with very basic yes/no radio button options (See image below). Each page has one question. I am trying to create some simple code that transitions to the next page if a user selects one radio button (Q1 choice 1), but skip to the 11th page if they select the other (Q1 choice 2). I want this to happen when they click the "next" button.
I assume I add the code to the "next" button... Something like "if radio button Q1 choice 1 = true, go to next page, else go to 11th page" (excuse my lack of coding knowledge).
How would I go about this?
Thanks!
That is a great answer! I put it in the next button javascript code and it ALMOST worked...
I messed around with it and got it working (based on my limited knowledge). I renamed "choice1" and "choice2" to "No" and "Yes" to make it easier to understand (see image below). Also, the "++" part of your code didn't seem to do anything, so I just changed it to the exact page that it should be. This is the code that ended up working:
var v = this.getField("Q1").valueAsString;
if (v=="Yes") this.pa

You can use this code as the MouseUp script of the button field:
var v = this.getField("Q1").valueAsString;
if (v=="choice 1") this.pageNum++;
else if (v=="choice 2") this.pageNum = 10;
I used 10 on purpose, not 11. It will take you to page 11, though, because the page numbers are zero-based in a script.
Edit: Code fixed

Does this look like "quality" code? I mean, am I good to duplicate this effect on other pages?
Thanks!!

Sorry, my mistake... It should have been just:
if (v=="Yes") this.pageNum++;
Or:
if (v=="Yes") this.pageNum = 6;
