Hi, it's common now to see in forms to auto populate shipping address to billing address. Typically you are given the option of "Same as Shipping" in which case the billing address is filled with the shipping address. How is this done with this component?

Hello,

This can be easily achieved with a custom javascript. For example you can have a checkbox that once checked, triggers the script and copies the information from the shipping address in the billing address fields. The script should be similar to :
<script type="text/javascript">
function getA()
{
	if (document.getElementById('checkbox_field_name0').checked) document.getElementById('billing_address').value = document.getElementById('shipping_address').value;
		else document.getElementById('billing_address').value = '';
}
</script>

...and should be triggered when the checkbox is ticket by adding the following line in the "Additional attributes" property of your checkbox field:
onclick="getA();"

Is it possible to autopopulate another field with the portion AFTER the pipe separator? What I need is both the information before and after the pipe. Any ideas?

How do you do the same thing from a radio group? e.g. Yes/No, if yes is selected, fill the fields, if no, clear them?

Thanks for any help you can give me

You can place an onclick="alert('you clicked me!');" trigger in the Additional Attributes area of your Radio Group which will trigger the contained code (in this case the alert) when the user clicks on the radio button.
Please remember that my responses aren't considered customer support, to receive customer support please submit a new customer support ticket, and we will gladly assist you.

Best Regards,
