Javascript calculations not resolving properly

Question

Hi,
I am currently making a PDF that makes labels for products based on what is entered on the first page.
I have been running it ok for a while and just printing off tests, now out of no where after no changes some of the calculations are not resolving.
For example I have a row of coloured tick boxes to show what colour the product is, on the label it is typed out twice once in an abbreviation for a product code then in full for the description.
I have noticed that now some of the colours won't register with the label until you check the next one and sometimes it will be delayed by 1.
I have come across this problem before and was unable to fix it, I have tried chaining the calculation sequence but to no avail.
Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
Thanks,
Bruce

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.
I had ago at this when I saw it but I seem to be getting the wrong output from it and I am not sure as to why this is.
I am using the colours as I have found that only the colours seem to not work properly.
if(this.getField("Colour").value=='MB'){
event.four = "MEDICAL BLUE"
} else if (this.getField("Colour").value=='LB'){
event.four = "LIGHT BLUE"
} else if (this.getField("Colour").value=='CR'){
event.four = "CREAM"
} else if (this.getField("Colour").value=='GR'){
event.four = "GREY"
} else if (this.getField("Colour").value=='MG'){
event.four = "MEDICAL GREEN"
} else if (this.getField("Colour").value=='LI'){
event.four = "LILAC"
} else {
event.four = "?"
I seem to only get the abbreviated text as a result and not what I defined and reason why this is?
I am using radio buttons for the colour if this makes it any different?
Thanks,
Bruce
