Alert user if two text fields don't match

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello!
I need a script that compares the text entered in fieldB to that in fieldA. If the text in fieldB doesn't exactly match that of fieldA, an alert should pop up notifying the user of the discrepancy. Does anyone know of a script that accomplishes that?

	Use this code as the custom validation script of fieldB: if (event.value!=this.getField("fieldA").valueAsString) app.alert("The values don't match!");
