So I'm getting better with the scripting (thanks to excellent help here), and I've added 3-4 various java scripts to meet user requests, but I'm still struggling with what has got to be a pretty easy concept...

When I use a function, such as OnBlur, how do I use it to specify a specific field?

function TEXT_OnBlur(id, row) {   return true; }

How do I tell the application to execute my code on the blur of a specifc text field? I tried replacing the id,row, for example, with the name of my field, both "text1" and "_f21" .

I have the same problem with some of the other functions, buttons, etc. But the OnBlur seems like a perfect example (and the one I'm working with right now)

No, the id, row is what is PASSED to the function. You use that to do your selection: function TEXT_OnBlur(id, row) { if (id == "text1") {then do this} return true; }

Thanks. I considered that, but I was second guessing it. It just didn't seem like that's how I should be using the function.
