Field 1 Equal to Field 2

[princemac]

Hi there,

What I'm trying to do is this:

I have 2 fields, contact's first name and contact's last name then I have 2 other fields, passenger's first name and passenger's last name, then I have a check box "same as contact".

What I want is that when I click the check box the value for the contact's first and last name is filled into the passenger's first and last name field.

How can I do this?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

A solid question.

To do so we'll need to create a small script to grab the values and push them to our other fields. This requires custom JavaScript, so I have just created a sample job for you that does it.

Please let me know what you think,

Matt

Thanks Matt,

Your method worked but I also did it an alternate way.

In the Checkbox's "Extra Attribute(s) JS Etc" I used this code:

Code: Select all

onclick="
if (document.getElementById('checkbox210').checked == 1) {
   document.getElementById('text13').value = document.getElementById('text6').value;
   document.getElementById('text14').value = document.getElementById('text5').value;
   document.getElementById('text15').value = document.getElementById('text4').value;
   document.getElementById('text16').value = document.getElementById('text7').value;
}
else {
   return(0);
}"

And it worked, thanks again for your help.

Well played : )

Just to toss this out, we can always include the jQuery or Prototype JS libraries:

Which would, for example, with Prototype, allow us to do this:

Code: Select all

$('text16').value = $('text7').value;

Instead of this:

Code: Select all

document.getElementById('text16').value = document.getElementById('text7').value;

Not a huge change, but simple, and of course, less prone to errors.
