Need to make a fields "required" setting conditional on a marketing form

Hello, I need assistance coding a field to make its /required/ setting conditional.

I have not yet added the field to the form, but it will be a field called /company name/ and i want it to be visible all the time (which i can do), but required ONLY in the event that the event type = school & university OR corporate.

Can someone please help me with this?

Hi,

It is possible to implement this functionality by inserting JavaScript into the Outbond marketing form.

    let EventType = document.getElementById("49ce3bed-4a59-ee11-be6f-002248213b02");
    let companyName = document.getElementById("81020a1e-4b59-ee11-be6f-002248213b02");
    let star = document.createElement('span');
    star.innerText="*";
    star.style.color = 'red';
    let label = document.getElementById("companyName");
    let index = EventType.selectedIndex;
    EventType.addEventListener("change",function(e){
        e.stopPropagation();
        let index = EventType.selectedIndex;
        companyName.removeAttribute('required');
        if(label.children.length !==0){
            label.removeChild(star);
        }
        if(EventType.options[index].innerText === "Corporate Event" || EventType.options[index].innerText === "School&University Events"){
        companyName.setAttribute('required',true);
        label.appendChild(star);
        }
    })

1. The string in parentheses in this line of code comes from the id value of the /select/ label for the 'What Type of Event do you want to host?' field.
