Call Dynamic Form Wizard via a POST data

Is it possible to call a Dynamic Form Wizard form via POST from another form?
I can get my form to work for an Update and Delete transaction, but I can't get it to work with an Insert - I can't prime fields.
Conversely, I can get it to work with an Insert transaction, but then it stops working for Update and Delete transactions!!!!
Calling a form with URL parameters is really frowned upon these days and ADDT needs to be updated to allow for the POST technique!

Hi Steven,
"order" is one of MySQL´s "reserved words", means you´ll have to rename this column to something else.

Cannot use dynamic form wizard

Can anyone tell me how to fix this? The file will not update and images will not load.
Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: kt_fileupload in /var/www/vhosts/xxxxx/httpdocs/includes/tng/triggers/tNG_FileUpload.class.php on line 182

Thanks a million. I don't know how it is that all files didn't get loaded but that was the issue.

You may not have the full set of ADDT files uploaded to your server. Make sure that you have uploaded /includes/common/lib/file_upload directory and the 2 files it should contain: KT_FileUpload.class.php and KT_FileUpload.php.
Hope that helps.

Using dynamic form wizard dont allow decimals

using the dynamic form wizard converts a given number using decimals in integer !!
example : if i use a text field ( in a form generated with the wizard) that will input a number with decimals : 123.44, the form sends 12344 to the db.
i´m using an access db (2003) and the numeric fields are declarated as number type
any ideas to solve this?

The problem is the same when using the Insert Record Form Wizard. I've made all the fields mandatory, but the file field still doesn't look like it has the content of the form passed through to the database. I've recreated the page, and double checked that the correct links are being made between the form inputs and the database fields, but still get the following:
]Error:
]SQL error: Field 'eventDoc.eventDocFile' cannot be a zero-length string..
]Developer Details:
]SQL error: INSERT INTO eventDoc (eventDocEvent, eventDocFile, eventDocText, eventDocTextWelsh) VALUES (32, '', 'Test file to check insert behaviour', 'Test file to check insert behaviour (Welsh)'). (SQL_ERROR)

I've also tested on both my local development server and the hosting server now, and have the same problem on both. It also happens if I just create the form, but don't apply the file upload behaviour - so it seems like it might be a problem with the supplied behaviours and how they handle the content of file inputs from forms.
I've only used the file upload in PHP before, where it seemed to work quite happily.

Dynamic Form - Open in Acrobat - Import Data - Expand

I have created an dynamic form with the Designer 7.0. It does repeat one line. When changing to the Desinger PDF preview, using a XML as an import file, the line gets repeated serveral times.
What I'd like to achieve is, that I can use Acrobat 7 for this. Opening the Form as a PDF, import the Data, and the lines should repeate.
Is this possbile?
Do I need to do some scripting for this?
Thankx, Cheers Harry

Thankx to dohanlon - he provided the following information in another thread AND IT DID HELP! THANKX:
Make sure your form is saved as a dynamic form. Other formats will not allow you to add / remove items using static / Acro 6 compatability mode.
Also make sure your structure for the items use the following
+ Subform (Flow Content)
+ Subform (Position Content)
+ Fields, etc
and make sure you have your Position Content Subform set to repeat.

To Call Another Form and Save Related MAster Data from a Transaction Form

Hi
Our project requires that forms for creating masters be called whenever the value (Key Value) being referenced in other forms are not found. For doing this I had used the When-Validate-Item Trigger and checked for the key value in the master tables and if not present, I use the Call_Form method to call the master form and create the key value and then come back to the Form in which I was working to continue processing the rest of the data.
It works well if the CAlling forms is in INSERT MODE but Not in UPDATE MODE ( returns a message A Calling Form has unapplied Changes, Cannot Save data (Error: FRM-40403)).
This same feature I tried to work it out around with a Key-Next-Item Trigger, it works fine for both the cases but as long as the user tabs out of the field from keyboard controls like the Enter Key or the Tab Key. But in case he wishes to click on the next field or some other button with a mouse OR he uses a keyboard shortcut to do some other operation viz. F10 for saving data, the trigger is not fired and that returns a ORACLE error (in case a database Integration issue arises) OR saves an invalid data.
I would like to know what kind of triggers could we write to exactly call a master form to save a new key value irrespective of whether the calling form is working in INSERT mode or QUERY Mode.
One way to do it is to use EXIT_FORM(DO_COMMIT, NO_ROLLBACK). But if the Primary/Calling form is closed without a Commit, then the related Master DAta is also Not Saved.
Please Let me know if we can save the master data whatever be the state of the CAlling Form permanently.
Thanks and Regards

You are going to need to POST in the Called Form rather than committing (and make sure that you do not rollback when you exit).
The Post will insert the master record into the DB but it will not be committed until you issue the commit in the Calling Form.

Create Dynamic Form Wizard

I used this last week on several pages without any problems. Today, I created a new page and used this wizard and now I'm getting major errors.
Here is what it's telling me. Looks like a Developer Toolbox breakdown?

Hi Cheryl,
Looks like a Developer Toolbox breakdown?
no, it rather looks like you´re using so called "reserved words" in your column names :-) Indeed, "show" is one of them.
For future reference here´s a list of all reserved words which you can´t use:

How to add a column to a list created with the Dynamic List Wizard to display the values of the fiel

Hi,
ADDT, Vista, WAMP5.0
We have 2 tables: clients_cli (id_cli, name_cli, tel_cli, and several more fields) and cases_cas (id_cas, idcli_cas, court_cas, and a lot of other fields).
Clients may have many cases, so table cases_cas have a foreign key named idcli_cas, just to determine which case belongs to which client.
We designed the lists of the two tables with the Dynamic List Wizard and the corresponding forms with Dynamic Form Wizard.
These two forms are linked with the Convert Dynamic List and Form Wizards, which added a button to clients list named "add case".
We add a client and then the system returns to the clients list displaying all clients, we look for the new client just added and then press "add case", which opens the Dynamic Form for cases, enter all case details and everything processes ok.
However, when we view the cases list it display all the details of the case, including the column and values for the foreign key idcli_cas. As you can image, it is quite difficult for a human to remember the clients ids.
So, in the cases list we added a another column, named it Name, to display the names of the clients along with cases details. We also created another recordset rsCli, selected the clients_cli table, displaying all columns, set filter id_cli = Form Variable = idcli_cas then press the Test button and everything displays perfect. Press ok.
Then, we position the cursor inside the corresponding cell of the new Name column, go to Bindings, click on name_cli and then click on insert. The dynamic field is inserted into the table cell as expected, Save the page, and test in browser.
The browser call the cases list but fails to display the values of the Name column. The Name column is simply empty.
This issue creates a huge problem that makes our application too difficult to use.
What are we doing wrong?
Please help.

1.     Start transaction PM01, Create Infotype, by entering the transaction code.
You access the Create Infotype screen.
2.     Choose List Screen.
3.     In the Infotype no. field, enter the four-digit number of the infotype you want to create.
When you specify the infotype number, please remember to enter any leading zeros.
4.     In the Screen Number field, enter the screen number of the list screen you want to enhance.
5.     Choose Create.
The Dictionary: Initial screen appears:
6.     Create the list screen structure.
7.     Choose Activate.
8.     Return to the Enhance List Screen in the Enhance Infotypes transaction (PM01).
9.     Choose Create All.
The additional fields are displayed on the list screen, however, they contain no data.
The fields can be filled in the FORM routine FILL-LISTSTRUCT in the generated program ZPnnnn00. The FORM routine is called for each data record in the list.
Structure ZPLIS is identified when it is generated with a TABLES statement in the program ZPnnnn00.
The fields can be filled from the Pnnnn structure or by reading text tables.

Validation of multiple empty fields in dynamic form

Hi,
I have created multiple fields dynamic form consisting of both mandatory & optional fields. Since the mandatory fields are validated by default, I want to validate the optional fields while submitting as PDF document dynamically and prompt me to continue or discard the submission. Also validating each & every field is not valid option as my form contains more than 200 fields.
I have tried with the below script which I successfully used to lock the form but in validating the empty fields I have a problem. Although I populate all the fields in the form, still I receive the validation message. Can anybody help me out on this issue?
for (var nPageCount = 0; nPageCount < xfa.host.numPages; nPageCount++) {
var oFields = xfa.layout.pageContent(nPageCount, "field");
var nNodesLength = oFields.length;
// Set the field property.
for (var nNodeCount = 0; nNodeCount < nNodesLength; nNodeCount++) {
if (oFields.item(nNodeCount).isNull = 1 && oFields.item(nNodeCount).length < 0){
xfa.host.messageBox("All the form fields are not completed, Do you want to continue","Field Validation", 2, 2);
break
Thanks,

I discovered how to accomplish this using the Manage Dynamic Form Wizard and changed the "Display as" field property from "Text field" to "Text" for the fields I wanted read only.
Now I have another problem, the properties of one of the fields (for comments) was "Text area" when I changed it to "Text" I now have this extremely long line that streches the width of the browser.
Is there a way to get this line to wrap? This is he line I'm working with...
<td class="form_results"><?php echo KT_escapeAttribute($row_rssubmissions['sub_comments']); ?></td>

Dynamic form "Cancel" redirect problem in frames - bugfix?

My question: Is there a "long run" down side to my implementing this modification to style.js?
The below post by Ionut:MX Division Support Specialist worked for me as a solution to a current form "click cancel" redirect navigation problem:
When a DWtoolbox dynamic form wizard form is placed on a page within frames, clinking on cancel does not return a user to the list that sent them to the form. The user is sent somewhere else.
Begin Ionut post-------------
If you don't need to add extra parameters to the "Edit" button, you can solve the redirect problem by editing the "/includes/skins/style.js" file and replace:
nxt_list_edit_link_form(this, myinput.previousSibling.href);
with:
nxt_list_edit_link_form(this, a.href);
End----------------------
Thanks Ionut for the tip and anyone in support for letting me know if this is a safe mod for the long run,

Hi Marny,
Hello Steve. I am new to Adobe & very confused. You seem to grasp the program very nicely, please help Me?
I´m not not Steve, however -- what problem do you have exactly, and is this problem related to the "Adobe Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox" extension or related to Dreamweaver ?
If it´s related to ADDT, please describe your problem by starting a new thread -- if it´s related to Dreamweaver, please post your questions in the general Dreamweaver forums.

Submitting a PDF form via HTTP Post: Beginner's Questions

Hi,
I am completely new to PDF forms, so I have been finding the documentation and options overwhelming.
I am hoping to get pointed to the documentation/tutorials/examples I really need.
I would like to build a "proof of concept" for my boss. I would like to include a screen in our Java ( JSP & Spring ) webapp where either a PDF form is embedded or is accessed via a link.
I have
Adobe Acrobat Distiller X standard license
Adobe Acrobat X Standard
Microsoft Office 2010
I made a small, 3 field Microsoft Word form. I then converted it via DIstiller into a PDF form.
I then found this document about how to submit a PDF form to a server side component:
http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/form-submit-e-mail-demystified
My big problem with this document it doesn't have an example nor an example showing what is going on in a full HTML page. As I result I have some questions:
Can I see such an example somewhere?
Does the call to the javascript function doc.SubmitForm(urlToMyServerSideComponent) go in a script tag on the HTML page like other javascripts?
Can I execute that submit function from an HTML button or do I need to put a "submit" button on the PDF form?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle in order to create a PDF form with a "submit" button? Free versions?
Can I send via HTTP POST ?
Do I need Adobe LiveCycle to crate a PDF form with a digital signature?
Is there a document/tutorial that fits where I am starting off from? ( Please no books, I am tyring to show my boss that this is something that can be done, in a reasonable amount of time, not time to get and go through a book ).
Thanks in advance for any tips that get me pointed in the right direction
Steve

To answer some of your specific questions:
2, 3. The submit form button needs to be on the PDF. You can either configure a Submit Form action or use the submitForm JavaScript method.
4, 6: No to both questions. You can create the form in Acrobat. Such forms are knows as Acroforms, as opposed to XFA forms that are created with LiveCycle Designer. Acroforms have wider support.
5: Yes, that's the method that's used when submitting to a web server. You have your choice of formats. The "HTML Form" option causes the form data to be submitted in the same format as an HTML form, so the same type of server-side code can be used to process the data. As Dave's tutorial shows, the server should return an FDF as the response, however, as opposed to HTML content.
It's a mistake to try to embed the PDF in a web page. So much depends on the user's browser, PDF viewer, and how both are configured. PDF forms can be submitted directly from Adobe Reader/Acrobat, so it's not necessary for them to be viewed in a browser. Note that Adobe Reader for iOS/Android don't yet support submitting to a web server (apart from FormsCentral), but that's is supposedly being worked on.
Since you mentioned digital signatures, be aware that for Reader users to be able to sign, the document has to be Reader-enabled, either with Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is not the same as LiveCycle Designer). Digital signatures in PDF forms are not yet supported on mobile devices. Also, you will want to submit the entire PDF, as opposed to just the form data, when submitting a digitally signed form.

Error in posting data to buffer: CL_RSPLS_DELTA_BUFFER_B unf Form READ-06-

Hello,
I have a problem in executing functions in my planning folders which contain hierarchy variables in the filter of the function.
Whenever I run a SAP standard function which has a hierarchy variable in the function filter, I get an error meesage. The function copies the values, and when it tries to post them to the buffer I get an error message and the planning workbook gets logged off from SAP.
The message:
u2022Programm Fehler in Klasse SAPMSSY1 Methode: UNCAUHGT_EXCEPTION
u2022Systemfehler in Programm CL_RSPLS_DELTA_BUFFER_B unf Form READ-06-.
It seems to me that there is an error in SAP which involves reading the hierarchy in my filter, this leads to the above mentioned error when the system tries to post the data to the buffer.
System info:
SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0
We have patch level 20.
Help regarding this problem would be appreciated.
Regards,
Julian

Hello Gregor,
thanks for your response. The error is in the planning workbook, the transfer button doesnt work, but Save does work.
The problem seems to be that I have a help query which runs before the plan query. The help query has a Hierarchy user exit variable which the user cannot input values, this reads certain master data. This is in the Static filter. In the dynamic filter is an input hierarchy variable (same characteristic as the exit variable). This receives the values from the user exit variable. The input hierarchy variable is also in the Plan Query where I have the buffer error message.
If I take the Hierarchy variables out of the help query and put them in the plan query, then it works, no error message.
Conclusion: it seems that the system has trouble posting data in the buffer if you have a hierarchy variable in the help query. (it works fine for non Hierarchy variables) We debugged it, and the SAP program does not recoginize -06- assigend element in the program.
Is there a SAP note to correct this? I found one that was very similar to my problem but it is old, for level 10. We are on patch level 20.
Thanks for your help,
Julian

Acrobat 7 Pro - form won't submit via email, and data won't submit either

Hi. I am trying to create a form for end users at my website to be able to open the form in Reader, enter their data in the form, and click on the "Submit" button to email it back to me (or any other way it can come back would be okay... as long as I can get the data).
In doing some research on program software needed to do this, I came to the conclusion I needed to have the Adobe suite (Acrobat Pro 7, Distiller 7, and Designer 7), and so I spent a lot of money obtaining this software. I also have just downloaded Reader 9.0 (the most recent).
Here are some particulars:
1. Following directions Ive found on Adobe online, and the Help files as well as in this forum, in the form (in Designer), I have the Submit button going to a URL of mailto:[email protected].
2. I've saved the form as a Static PDF Form File in Designer. Things are going well.
3. The form works great in PDF Preview all form fields are setup and act correctly. Super!
4. I FTP my file to the appropriate website, where once the link to the form is clicked the form opens (in Reader) for my users. Perfect!
5. The user then opens the form, and before they start to fill it out, a popup shows this:
Sending Data Fields By Email. Please note: This form contains an email submit button. Clicking this button will email a data file containing data you type into this form. However, the form itself will not be sent. Remember, you cannot save a completed copy of this form with Adobe Reader 9
Then you have the option to Dont show again and a button to Close.
6. After clicking Close, the user is then able to fill in the fields. These fields are standard fields, nothing exceptional, nothing fancy, just text.
7. At the end of the form is the Submit button. When a user clicks this, NOTHING happens. Even when you try to do the File/Send thing, the form will send, but none of the data. Im not so happy right now L
8. In this forum, I now see directions to Reader Enable in Adobe Pro (I do have Adobe Pro). The directions say Advanced/Enable Reader (as in one of the above posts is stated, 'Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader'). However, I do not have an Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader under my Advanced tab. So, continuing to read in other similar posts, I find others dont have this option either so, one question is, where is it??? ;-)
9. Now I see what appears to be another piece of Adobe software that I need, that is LiveCycle? I think Im getting in over my head, as I dont understand
I am new to all this, and am doing my best, but now Im totally confused. All I want to do is have my measly little form open up and have people fill it in and email it back to me so that I can take that data and work with it.
I run (or am trying to run) a non-profit (i.e., Im paying 100% of the bill) website for local Humane Societies who can facilitate offering online Adoption Applications (this is the form Im trying to make happen). I got the form made, and its fillable its just not being able to be submitted online; and when it DID get submitted (first try or so), it came through with no data, and the .xml file data wouldnt populate.
Bottom line question: Is this, what Im trying to do, feasible or not? Im just a simple soul trying to help out some animals. Im not a programmer, so if thats what it takes I guess Im gonna have to give up and forget it. I only wanted to help make things easer for folks to adopt a pet.
Any help by anyone would be totally and gratefully appreciated. Thank you.
keywords: empty form, form not submitting, can't email form, data not transferring, no data in form, can't submit form, can't submit data

Hi, and thank you for the reply.
I've already spent several hundred dollars on getting Adobe Acrobat software, and was hoping there was some work-around on this? What did people do before LiveCycle for instance when they needed to get data from submitted forms via email?
Please don't misunderstand, but as in my example described above, what can a 3rd party do for me (to enable more 'robust rights') that I can't do myself? I'm trying to figure out if I have the software to do it, paid for the software that is "supposed" to do it, why then I need to pay more money to someone else to make the software do what it's supposed to? I sure don't want to have to pay someone to fix it each time I need to make a change in my form for instance...
I'm confused I guess - I suppose the purpose of my asking on the forum here was to hopefully gain some know-how as how to go about doing this myself vs. paying someone else to do it for me. I want to learn, but just don't know where to start. Or, maybe the software I have just doesn't do what I believed it was capable of doing?
Guidance and/or suggestions from all on this point would be very appreciated. Thank you.

Calling APEX form with dynamic parameters from Oracle Apps 11.5.8

I have successfully managed to setup access to APEX forms from Oracle Apps 11.5.8 menus utilising Form Functions passing a number of hardcoded parameter values as outlined in the document, http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/Extend_Oracle_Applications_11i.pdf.
I am now trying to ZOOM from an Oracle Form passing values of form items (dynamic parameters) to an APEX form. I have so far not been able to do this.
I've also tried using;
web.show_document('http://derep.obup.co.uk:4657/pls/apex/f?p=100:1::::::p1_cust_account_id:'||name_in('ast_cu_act.account_id')||':', '_TOP');
but this prompts for a username/password again as this bypasses the APEX Launch process that is defined in my Form Function.
Is this possible in the parameters section of Form Functions? or elsewhere.
Regards,
Naeem

Hi Daan
We do havea couple of customers doing this, they have taken two approaches:
1. Install XMLP on a separate server entirely - kick off conc request to extract data and then use Java Messaging Service (JMS) to push the resulting XML to the external server where they are using AQ to set up jobs for the XMLP server to work through, generating and delivering the final documents.
2. Set XMLP up as a virtual printer - here the conc request again generates XML but this time the result is directed to a virtual printer namely XMLP. There is a perl or similar wrapper that gets called as the printer and accepts the data, template, output format and delivery destination as parameters.
Apologies for the 10,000 feet overview, hope it helps. Tim

XI to post data via HTTPS

Hi !
There is a government web page with an HTML page that has a FORM tag, with this attributes (action data is not real)
action ="https://www.website.com/forms.do"
enctype="multipart/form-data"
method="post"
name="form"
inside, it has some INPUT tags:
<INPUT name="user"></INPUT>
<INPUT name="password"></INPUT>
<INPUT type="file" name="file"></INPUT>
<INPUT name="submit" type="submit" value="Send"></INPUT>
I need XI to post the input data that it receives via RFC.
Should I use the HTTP Adapter? SOAP Adapter?
How can I simulate the form submission via XI ?
How do I do to send the file data? (it is received by XI from an RFC as a long text line)
Thanks,
Matias.

Maybe you can with HTTP receiver adapter and some tricks...
But you may also follow this way: an JAVA proxy that receive the message and make all the HTTP dialog:
