How to prevent Signing?

[Former Community Member]

When I click in a Digital Signature field on a Form, it pops up a dialogue for me to enter the password, how do I use javascript to prevent that dialogue window from popping up?

say, I want the user to complete certain things on the form before letting him Sign the form. 

So, when he clicks in the Signature field, I want to detect that and disable the popup window.

I tried some things, but it seems that the popup always shows up no matter what.

Is it possible to disable that at all?

If it's possible to disable, would that work in a CAC-card environment also?

I mean, user uses his CAC to Sign instead of typing in a password.

You cannot disable the dialog that prompts the user for the password (to their credential) when signing, but you could have the signature field initially set to "Read Only", and have a script that validates the data to ensure all of the required fields are completed, if they are, then set the Signature Field to "open" so the user can now click it.  This concept would work for the CAC card scenario as well.
