I have a PDF form with several fields. In one of the fields, a user must enter a
number, either a percentage or a dollar amount.
I want to check that field to ensure that they remember to include a "$" or a "%" sign
so that the person viewing the completed form knows whether the number is a dollar
amount or a percentage
I attempted using field validation with the following code, however it does not work
correctly. Can anyone take a look at this and offer a suggestion as to what I am doing
wrong?
var re = /^[$]\d$/
if (re.test(event.value) == false) {
app.alert("Please include a $ sign or % sign with your numerals.")
app.beep()
}
Additionally, I have a script that checks all the fields when a submit button is
pushed. I would like to have this script also check for the existence of a $ or % and
require that either one be entered if it is missing.
I want to do this in case the user clicks off the field validtion alert without adding
the missing $ or % symbol.
How can I modify the portion of script below so that it reequires the use of a $ or %
sysmbol?
else if (f8.value == "")
{app.alert ('Please enter a coop amount. If 0, please type
zero or none.');
if (typeof app.formsVersion != "undefined" && app.formsVersion >= 4.0)
// Version specific operation:
f8.setFocus();}
Thanks in advance for any help you can give
