I do know my field names.... "field1" through "field15"
The only ones I want to count are "field1" through "field6" (ignoring 7-15)
...and only the ones that aren't empty

If the populated fields in this range number=4 (2 empty)
return <br/>
If the populated fields in this range number=3 (3 empty)
return <br/><br/>
If the populated fields in this range number=2 (4 empty)
return <br/><br/><br/>

Can you show me what that looks like in the example you gave me?

Thanks!

Something like this:

  var NumFields = NumNonEmptyFields("field1", "field2",
                   "field3", "field4", "field5", "field6");

  var NumBreaks = 5 - NumFields;

  var result = "";
  for (var i = 0; i < NumBreaks; i++)
    result += "<br/>";

  return result;

Or, depending on what you're ultimately trying to accomplish, you might just be able to use the "Suppress if empty" feature and bottom- alignment in a text frame.
