How to perform an action when the "OK" button is clicked on a xfa.host.response script

Hello,

I have a script that when a field is exited without user data that a response script is evoked.

When the user has entered the required data into the dialog box and the OK button is clicked I would like the user data entered into the field as a value.

Can anyone please advise how this can be accomplished?

The script is listed as follows:

// If this field is exited without the user entering data the following message will appear

if

(Employee_ID.rawValue == null)

{

xfa.host.response ("This is a mandatory field, enter your employee id");

}

Hi,

I think this script will do the work:

if   (this.rawValue == null)

{

     var id =xfa.host.response ("This is a mandatory field, enter your employee id");
     this.rawValue=id;
}

Thank you very much for your assistance Yan.

The script works by entering the value from the response dialog box into the field when the OK button is clicked.

"Excellent Script Yan - Thanks".
