Creating Dynamic Stamps

Using adobe Pro 9.5.  I am trying to create a Custom Submittal Stamp.

 

The user would Stamp an electronic Submittal, A Date would auto populate, then a Java Field would pop up and ask the user to enter Custom Text in 2 places: Submittal Number and User Review Name.

 

The Date is the easy part.  I can copy a Dynamic Stamp Auto Date field and that works every time, no problem. 

 

It's the Java Script window that i'm have a Dog of a time dealing with.

 

Just to test it, I have copied a field from a previous Javascript post that works:

 


var cAsk = "Enter One of: Approved, Rejected, or In Process" ;
var cTitle = "Document State For Stamp ";
if(event.source.forReal && (event.source.stampName == "#UdzyXagRctZoS5p43TZ43C"))
{
  var cMsg = app.response(cAsk, cTitle);
  cMsg += " : " + util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());
  event.value = cMsg;
  event.source.source.info.DocumentState = cMsg;
}

 

 

The precreated stamp that I save into my Stamps folder works everytime.  I stamp, the Java Script window opens Every time. 

 

The second I copy this field onto the stamp i'm trying to create it just stamps with no Java Script window.

 

Any suggestions?

 

If I create the field from the Forms editor and then copy and paste the Java Script into it, it still doesn't work.

 

Please help.
