First off, the display rules and the regular expressions are really great tools. Thanks to CC for putting them in the software. I've made an intake form for one of my clients http://www.drdonnaparker.com/intake_form.html and it all seems to be working as it should. When the "Is Client a minor?" checkbox is selected the proper fields drop down as designed. I did not specify that these fields be required because I thought that might interfear with someone not filling out the form for a minor. I would like to have those fields be required if they are for a minor. Clear as mud?:):)
Is it possible to just select them as required and the form will work correctly?
One thing that would be nice in the program is if you could select a section of text, fields, etc and apply the display rules to the whole selection instead of piecmeal.
Thanks

Glad you like it! :)

Any field that is hidden an only shows up based on a rule, will have no impact on the form while it is hidden. So if they select "no", then the required options will be ignored. If they select "yes", then those options must be filled out to submit the form.

Great! Thanks Scott. As you can imagine forms for medical people need to comply to their standards pretty closely and Dr Parker wondered about this. A few tweaks and I'm good.
Thanks again.

I would like to give a big thanks for the display option feature and the pop up forms. It is one top piece of software. If I were into designing web sites for people it would be my Number 2 tool, Number 1? The Editor of course.
