How to check to see if any Checkboxes within a subform are checked

Hi everyone, I'm sure there is a way (possibly through JavaScript) to figure out if any checkboxes in a subform are checked but I can't seem to figure it out.  I'll work on uploading my form so that it will be easier to see what I'm talking about but in the mean time here is a brief explanation of how the form is setup:
my form's hierarchy is as follows:
Form1
     -(Master Pages)
     -TaxRegBusInfo
          -SubForm2
               -Checkbox1 (it will show/hide the following subform based on if it's checked or not)
                    -Q2SubForm1
                         -CheckboxA
                         -CheckboxB
                         -CheckboxC
                         etc (totaling out to about 50 checkboxes)
Basically what I'm trying to figure out is how to write some code (I'm guessing a function?) that I can use so that when someone goes through the form and selects any of the checkboxes (A,B,C, etc.) in any order or combination, a text box say something like "items checked."
I've looked into the "resolveNodes" and "instanceManager" functions as well as the Adobe LiveCycle help but I've only just started to dabble in JavaScript so I can't quite seem to figure out how to use them properly.  Any help or links to beginner friendly documentation would be much appreciated!

It doesn't necessarily have to show which items are checked but it would be helpful.
last night I started with this and it seems to work but I'm sure there is a better/more efficient way of doing it
var BoxCount = TaxRegQ1.chkAL.rawValue + TaxRegQ1.chkAR.rawValue + TaxRegQ1.chkAZ.rawValue
if (BoxCount>0){
Checked.rawValue = "Yes";
else
Checked.rawValue = "No";
How do you upload to this forum?  Sorry i'm new to posting to the Adobe forum and can't seem to find the option.

  • I have an array in which I want to check and see if it falls within a certain range with about 7 different ranges. I have tried the range and coerce function but something is going wrong.

    Also, I have a timer that lets me know how long the trigger has been active. I want to know if it is possible if that time would be reset everytime the trigger goes off.

    1. Do not run using the Continuous Run button! This is intended only for certain types of trouble shooting and not for normal operation.
    2. Put a while loop around your entire program.  Add a stop button wired to the stop terminal of the loop.
    3. Then you can replace all the feedback nodes with one shift register with the input expanded to five elements. Sum the three bottom ones for your averaging.
    4. Nothing is wrong with the In Range and Coerce.  You should only check it when you have data.  That is what the Data Available output from Trigger and Gate is for.
    5. I am not sure what you want to reset for your timer or exactly when, but it should be possible.
    6. I did not try to figure it all out but you may not need the timer while loop once you wrap the loop suggested in 2 around the rest of the code.  You may be able to move the shift registers to the outer loop.

  • Compile Forms on a Unix Machine (check for errors in any of the files)

    Hello there,
    Our organization is wrapping up the development phase and beginning our testing phase. I am responsible for the Configuration Management of our forms, menus, libraries, and reports.
    We develop our code in a Windows environment (including compilation check), then we FTP the source files to a unix environment, then we compile the forms on a unix environment. We have this process down pretty well (for a couple of files at a time).
    Now we would like to automate our "build" procedure. This process involves the following tasks.
    1.) Extract all the source files from our vault software (PVCS)
    2.) FTP all the source files to the UNIX environment
    3.) Compile all the source files on the UNIX environment
    4.) Test the Software on the UNIX application server
    We have all of the above working (if no compilation errors occur). I am not sure how to check if any of the files errored during compilation. How can I check to see if any errors occurred during the UNIX source code compilation? I know how to do this manually (look at the output and see if the module compiled), but we are compiling approximately 200 files during our release build process. Maybe some sort of send the compilation results to an output file then search for any files that contain "not generated" (I assume if an error is generated, the text will be displayed to the user).
    Is there an easy way to check if any of the forms, menus, libraries, or reports errored during the "automatic" compilation process?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    I use this script to generate .fmx files from a zipped .fmb file. This approach allows for much faster FTP because our developers are not co-located with our servers.
    In addition, the tail command echoes the final line of the .err as either...
    Created form file <filename.fmx>
    for success or
    Compilation errors have occurred.
    for failure.
    # SCRIPT: zipgen
    # REV: 1.0.d - Used for developement
    # DATE: 070515
    # PLATFORM: Not Platform Dependent
    # PURPOSE: This script takes a single filename variable (w/o extension)
    # and it unzips the file then deletes any existing compiled
    # form of that name and finally attempts to generate a new fmx
    # of the variable name.
    # Assign Variables
    v_log=$1.err
    v_zip=$1.zip
    v_fmx=$1.fmx
    v_fmb=$1.fmb
    # Unzip File: Overwriting any existing file(s)
    unzip -q -o $1.zip
    # Cleanup ZIP files
    rm $1.zip
    # Delete existing FMX
    rm $1.fmx
    # Generate FMB
    gen $1
    # Display results
    tail -1 $1.err

  • Need multiple checkboxes to autofill their values into a separate textbox as they are checked

    Hi,
    I have a form that requires the user to check a box regarding what articles they want mailed out to a participant depending on which client they are affiliated with and the language they speak. I am using 1 form for 7 clients. There is a separate page for each client in english and spanish, so the entire form has 16 pages with 2,988 checkboxes in the entire document (a little over 200 in each page besides the first and last page). The last page contains a textbox labled Summary, and it should provide a summary of all the items checked in the document. The first page contains a dropdown menu of each client and a radio button set with the language selection. Theoretically only one page will be populated at a time, so there will be no more than 200 checkboxes checked in the entire document.
    As the articles are checked I want the checkbox name to automatically populate into the summary textbox on the last page. The code I'm using is below, but I can't get it to work.
    I don't get a script error, but there is nothing populating in the summary textbox.
    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    The JS I am trying to get to work is the following:
    form1.SummaryPage.SummaryText::calculate - (JavaScript, client)
    // Custom Calculate script
    (function () {
    var i, v, s = "";
    // Loop through the 2988 check boxes
    for (i = 1; i < 2989; i += 1) {
    // Get the value of the current checkbox
    v = getField("checkbox " + i).valueAsString;
    // Concatenate check box value to string if not deselected
    if (v !== "Off") s+= v + "\r";
    // Set this field value
    event.value = s;

    Hi,
    This looks like code from an AcroForm.  A Designer form does not have a getField method, try something like;
    xfa.resolveNode("checkbox"+1).rawValue
    And at the end use;
    this.rawValue = s;
    Code in a calculate event does not seem to report any errors, try testing it in a click event

  • Print only pages that are checked on page one??? Hidden is possible?

    Please help. I know a little about java and acrobat but not enough to do everything I want.
    I am making a form that has many pages but not all the pages apply to every event. So what I want to do is put a number of check boxes near the top of the form. When I print I only want the pages that are represented by the checked boxes to print.  Even better, I would like those pages not visible at all just print. For example: Page one is a form that one would fill out: name, address, phone number, etc. Near the bottom that person would check all that apply: page A, page B, etc. That’s all he would see but when printed, it prints out the form and any of the pages that are checked.
    Am I asking too much?
    Thank you for any and all help.

    It's possible to use a script to print only certain pages, but any contiguous page ranges have to be sent as a single print job. For example, to print pages 1-5, 10-20, and the single page 50, you would have to issue 3 separate print statements.
    It's possible to have non-visible pages (templates), but it's not possible to print them until they are displayed. Since Reader 11 now supports templates, it would be possible to display the selected pages in the order that you want, which would presumably be a single continous range of pages, which would then require just a single print statement, as opposed to multiple ones as described above.

  • I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked.

    I have an iPhone 5s and in my iTunes music library have the songs checked that I want downloaded onto my phone. Instead of doing this, it is syncing all songs whether they are checked or not even tho I have the "sync only checked songs" box checked. So basically it's syncing all of the songs when I just want the checked ones on. This is very frustrating.

    When your device is connected, check the tabs at the top ("Summary" "Apps" "Music," etc. Under the Music one, check to see if "Sync Music>entire music library" is checked. If it is, that may be why all the songs are syncing.

    http://www.mac-and-i.net/2012/04/flashback-detect-and-remove-uprising.html
    In order to avoid detection, the installer will first look for the presence of some antivirus tools and other utilities that might be present on a power user's system, which according to F-Secure include the following:
    /Library/Little Snitch
    /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
    /Applications/VirusBarrier X6.app
    /Applications/iAntiVirus/iAntiVirus.app

    /Applications/ClamXav.app
    /Applications/HTTPScoop.app
    /Applications/Packet Peeper.app
    If these tools are found, then the malware deletes itself in an attempt to prevent detection by those who have the means and capability to do so. Many malware programs use this behavior, as was seen in others such as the Tsunami malware bot.

  • TS3899 How do I check to see if the problem resides on the server (e.g., the mail server is not responding) rather than assuming the issue is with my phone and devise setup?

    As of sometime after September 10, 2012, at 4:40PM, I have not been receiving any mail.  Not on my iPhone, iPad, iMac, or MacBookPro.  The trouble shooting help on Apple's web site is designed to help ensure my devise settings are accurate.  However, I moved from .Mac to .me and now to .cloud and have operating with no issues for several months on the iCloud.
    How can I check to see if my mail problem is really Apple's fault rather than double checking all my devise settings ad nausiam?  I feel there is a server issue with Apple because none of my devises can receive mail, however, I do not know how to validate my theory with Apple.  I get an error message telling me:
    Cannot Get Mail
    The connection to the server failed.
    Apple says there is a mail server problem affecting 1% of users.  However, am I one of the 1%?  If I assume I am, wait for the problem to be fixed, and then learn I was not one of the 1% and continue to have mail issues, then I will be more frustrated.

    I have the same problem since yesterday morning. I checked the systems status and still the same. I guess we are the 1.1% who has problem with their email.
