If statement with multiple values

[lc04022016]

Hi All,

I am trying to write an if statement to return a numerical value in a field called "Min" based on the text that is selected in a dropdown box. What I am after is if the dropdown has a value of either KUR1 KUR2 or KUR3 I want the value in the field labelled "Min" to equal 0.5 for anything else I want "Min" to equal 1.0

I did have a long line of if statements written, but I am thinking there must be a much better way of doing it!!!!

Thank you

LC

Assuming that this script is in the  custom Validate for the dropdown, here is some code:

if((event.value == "KUR1") || (event.value == "KUR2") || (event.value == "KUR3"))

   this.getFiel("Min").value = 0.5;

else

   this.getFiel("Min").value = 1.0;

Here is another way to perform the same action

switch(event.value)

{

     case "KUR1":

     case "KUR2":

     case "KUR3":

         this.getFiel("Min").value = 0.5;

         break;

     default:

          this.getFiel("Min").value = 1.0;

         break;

}
