Enforcing required text fields to be filled in when pressing e-mail button

Hi

 

I have an acrobat form (acrobat x pro) only consisting of text fields and an email button.

All the text fields need to be filled in before sending it. If the e-mail button is presses and some fields are empty, I need a warning message asking people to fill in the entire form.

 

Is this posible with a javascript?

I have searched this forum and on google but I can't find any solution including an email button.

 

Thank you in advance.

    Yes it's possible. How do you currently have the email button configured, exactly?

    Hi George

     

    I have set up a simple javascript on the button (not in the document javascript) with a mouse down action:

     

    try {
        mailDoc({
            cTo: "email@email.com",
            cSubject: "Subj",
            cMsg: "Msg."
        });

    } catch (e) {
        app.alert("Could not send email.", 1);
    }
