Dynamic Disabling Required fields

[BrownZeus]

Hey all,

 

So I have a form with a Delivery Info field.

 

If the billing address and the delivery address is the same, the user checks a box.

 

Right now, aforementioned box hides the delivery address fields using a a JS onclick script, however these fields are also required.

Because of this, one will not be able to submit the form.

 

So, how do I make my delivery fields required, but not required when hidden. For whatever reason changing my script to disable these fields instead of hiding them, isn't working.

 

This page is being developed with PHP as the serverside language.

 

TIA!!

In your onclick also copy the data to the delivery form fields.

 

Or on the back end check if the button is true and then copy the data then.

Check if the button is true, then copy the data into whatever data structure you're using for the delivery address data before submitting it to the server.

 

Would advise to do this on the client side to avoid giving the server extra work.
