Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Answer 1

Here is one solution:
// mouse up action for submit button;
function GetField(cName) {
// get field object for cName field with error checking;
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Error accessing field named " + cName + "\nPleae verigy field name, spelling and capitalizeation.", 1, 0);
return oField;
} // end GetField function;
var oPhone = GetField("phone");
oPhone.required = oPhone.value == oPhone.defaultValue;
var oEmail = GetField("email");
oEmail.required = oEmail.value == oEmail.defaultValue;
if(oPhone.required && oEmail.required) {
app.alert("Missing required fields.", 1, 0);
} else {
app.alert("Submitting form", 3, 0);
// additional code for submission;
