Need to compare html text area values by using java script

In this case, i need to compare the first text area value and updated text area value. How can i do that in Java Script.

I suggest you look for a Javascript forum to ask questions about Javascript. This is a Java forum.

Saving PDF from AI causes TIF images to be 'intersected' by vector shape behind it

Hi,
I am encountering this issue frequently and would appreciate any insight...
When I have a design made up of both embedded TIF Images and vector shapes which overlap, the shape of the vector beneath 'cuts' or intersects the image laid on top and produces a white area there.
It is seen in the full color PDF's I send to the printers at the local newspaper. The PDF is saved at 180dpi. The 'save illustrator editing capabilities' makes no difference whether it's checked on or not. It does not occur in 300 dpi PDF's Saved from AI.
The problem is the printers save all artwork to 180dpi PDF's no matter what format I send.
Can this be avoided by doing something on my side? or has anyone else had this before?
Thanks,
TJ

yep especially that copy and paste is not working via mouse annoys me. i only get the "insert, image link" stuff on my right mouse button.... and i don´t need that as often as copy & paste.
the quote function is not very good either, compared with other forum software.

Big text showing in PDF from flex input

Hi,
I have a problem printing data to PDF from SQL. I'm using Rich text editor as it allows the user to add bullets, bold etc... and I'm using font Family arial and font size 12 in my flex form. Now when the data goes into DB it saves all the html tags like following
Data coming from SQL is like
<TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Verdana" SIZE="10" COLOR="#0B333C" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Here is some text</FONT></P></TEXTFORMAT>
I'm using in PrintPDF.cfm
<tr>
    <td style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
     font-size:12px; font-weight:bold;">Text</td>
     <td>#qryText.Some_text# </td>
</tr>
Using this the PDF show big data returning from the SQL DB.
It overwrites all the styles that I have and will show big text
Please let me know if there is a way around this...
Any suggestions....

Saved PDF from Stored Procedure missing application item in report header

I am able to create and save the pdf from a stored procedure however the application item that contains the date is blank in the saved pdf. Report title displays correctly when running via APEX. I have tried to set this value with, apex_util.set_session_state('F111_DATE',sysdate); and also as a cookie owa_cookie.send('F11_DATE',to_char(sysdate,'Month DD, YYYY'));
and neither of these statements work. Example of code below...
vRequest := Utl_Http.begin_request(vReportUrl,'POST');
Utl_Http.set_header(vRequest, 'User-Agent', 'Mozilla/4.0');
owa_cookie.send('F11_DATE',to_char(sysdate,'Month DD, YYYY'));
apex_util.set_session_state('F111_DATE',sysdate);
vResponse := Utl_Http.get_response(vRequest);
Apex version 3.2/ 11g

Problem saving pdf from preview

Since upgrading to 10.4.3 I have noticed that preview behaves strangely when re-saving pdf files. If I preview a pdf document and the use the "save" function to make a copy, the copied file is about twice the size of the original, and the Table of Contents data seems to be lost. I've noticed this for files produced from the TeX package, such as are on the physics electronic archives (http://arxiv/org). Any explanation would be appreciated! I realise that I could just save a copy directly, but it is sometimes handy to preview first, and I am a little disturbed to discover that preview appears to be changing pdf files unnecessarily when saving them.
12" powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I can't help you, but I'm having the same problem with version 9.4.1
I have been trying to "save as" some .pdf documents (monthly statements) from a financial institution, but it does not work when I right click on the file, or when I right click on the document. Like you, I click on the "disc" icon, and nothing happens. I was able to save these in August and prior, but not now. It makes no sense.
When I open these documents, they appear in a web window, not in the Reader software, so there is no tool bar showing "file", "edit", "view", etc, like what appearsw in Acrobat. I'm stumped. I posted this several days before you, but no replies yet. I'm not real eager to pay $39 for the adobe help desk just yet.

Help. Need to remove one of the listed QuickTimes from the "open with" menu

When I bring up the 'Open with' menu on an audio file I have QuickTime Player (7.3.1) and just below that I have QuickTime Player (7.2.1). I would like to remove the 7.2.1 listing from this menu. There is on one version on my computer (7.3.1). The last update must have placed the newer listing in this menu and left the older listing. Is there a way to remove the older listing from the open with menu?

Did you ever do an archival and install of your OS? If so, you have what is called previous system fold on your main hard drive. This is where you can find the player to the version. If not I guess what happen to you is strange...mmm... And I guess it could happen.

10.5.3: Preview can't display text on saved PDFs...?

I have lots of credit card/bank statements which I've downloaded as (not 'printed as') PDFs... now since 10.5.3 when I open them Preview can't read the text- it displays logos and layout but no text... taking the documents over to my laptop running 10.5.2 they display perfectly...
...anyone else had this? Or have an idea about how to solve it?
(I did my first 10.5.3 update via Software Update- when I found this problem I downloaded the 10.5.3 dmg from the Apple website, and ran that... and still have the problem...)
This is on a late 2007 iMac...

I didn't fill out the text. The text was there when I first downloaded the documents- and is still readable on my other computer. They just come up blank...
Actually to test, I just downloaded Adobe Reader- which displays them perfectly... but Preview still displays them blank...?

Final images in a saved .pdf from Illustrator don't look correct

Illustrator Newb:
I'm making a design for a new product that comes in 3 different flavors. So I have 1 design, in 3 different colors.
I created all of my different parts for the design in Photoshop CS4 as .pdfs and placed them all in an Illustrator file (except for the text and a few shadows, strokes and such). I'm having problems with 1 of my placed images. It's placed 4 different times, and all 4 are either not showing up or are cropped in odd irregular ways. I have no paths or other hidden parts in the file that would cover them and it only shows up wrong when the Illustrator file is saved as a .pdf.
I went back to the original .psd thinking there was a problem w/ it, and resaved it under a new name and it still saves in AI all broken up.
Because I have 3 different flavors, I've done this in the other files, from that same orignal .psd and they turned out fine. And because this design is confidential I can't post pictures of the error to help describe my problem... The problem started yesterday and we're already behind production schedule.
But any help would be nice. Please and thank you!

Also:
The first design I made in AI I saved the .ai file under a different name and changed the minor things I needed to make it the other flavor. I can't go back to that original file because I keep getting a Runtime Error when I open it. Not every file has this error, just the original.. THE ONE I REALLY NEED.

Saving pdf from webpages

I read a lot of PDF documents on several research web sites. On these particular websites, the PDFs load in the page only. I can right-click and select "Open in Preview" which is great, because then I can quickly skim the article and see if I want to save it.(faster in preview app, than trying to read it in safari).
The catch is when I go to save the file to a folder on my local disk.
I choose save as, and the little save window pops up and has the default save location set to private/tmp. I realize that when I click open in preview, it downloads it to the private/tmp dir, and opens it. Then when I save, it defaults to the location the file was at. However, the tmp directory will never ever be useful for saving 20-30 documents which I can quickly whip up to be saved.
Having to re-name the document title(after saving it to tmp, it assigns numbers like "2412476251" to the name of the file), then choose from the list(at the very bottom) for recent locations is very annoying! it adds a lot of time and frustration to gathering research materials.
I thought I remembered OSX(before I had to reinstall everything today) keeping the last location saved to (after saving to it). But I cannot figure out how to change any of the default locations. I really feel that apple should have included a feature to allow the user to change the default save/open location on the fly.
Does anyone have insight on this? Or a solution? I just want something, such that I can click on the PDF (opened in safari) and have it save to a folder on my HD.
Stuff which won't work:
-Choosing Save/ Save As from safari. This will only let me save as a web archive of the surrounding page.
-Choosing Print, saving as a PDF. This is almost as painful, regarding time and effort. Doing this task 30+ times a day, *****.
-A shareware app which literally costs half the price of OSX Tiger. (Default Folder X or whatever)
about my system: I just today, reinstalled my OS and did updates (after having a 10.4.8 install issue which hosed my OS.)I have lots of free space, and the only app I have installed is Mathematica5.
2.0 ghz macbook pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) Fresh Install
2.0 ghz mbp Mac OS X (10.4.8)
2.0 ghz mbp Mac OS X (10.4.8)

If you option click the link to the PDF in Safari it will save the file to your default download location. If you've already opened something in Safari you can go to menu item Window, select Activity, and then option click the item that contains the file name, for instance:
http://www.corsaire.com/white-papers/040622-securing-mac-os-x.pdf
A double click will download the file "040622-securing-mac-os-x.pdf" to your default download folder. If you are doing this a lot you can create a Downloads folder, then in Safari's Preferences, General select your Downloads folder as the default location.
But I too am wondering what is wrong with your setup of Safari, since when I open a PDF file in Safari and select Save as it gives the name of the file on the web site as the default name, and the last place I saved something to as the default location.

Need to be able to edit a pdf from a web browser

I have a client who wants to be able to have a custom pdf form on their website which will allow users on windows or mac to fill in the selected areas and save to the server as well as a copy for the user. I do web maintenance for the company already so since I'm on a Mac I would think the app has would have to to be OSX so I can first customize the main pdf fields where name address etc go and to retrieve any completed forms on their server.
Any pointers in how to do this?

You might try PDF Browser Plugin by Schubert of Germany. It will allow you to "fill out" forms from the web created in PDF. It not only works with Safari, but also with mostly FireFox, SeaMonkey, Camino, and Can on iCab, OminiWeb, Opera as well. It does allow for filling out forms on line then you print the form and fax or send in. This is for standard forms that have not been saved to enable Reader Rights.
Until Acrobat 6, any Acrobat or Reader installations that had PDFviewer Plugin installed would work on any Browser on the Market. Its only after, Apple Switched to OSX that Adobe refuse to update the plugin to allow to work with anything other than Safari. That's when Mr Schubert stepped up to file the void.

Saving PDFs from Preview

When creating a PDF in Preview, that your non-Mac business associates will open in Adobe Reader, the resulting document is noted as an 8 1/2 x 11 page size (in Adobe's Document Properties), even when the original document is something else, creating print problems for those trying to print what was originally a large drawing.
Saving the PDF was done in the Print dialog box, not the "Save As" dialog box (where other problems are created...namely, no image shows when opened in Adobe Reader).
Any way to save a PDF in Preview and retain the original drawing size? There are several settings in Preview's Preferences affecting DPI and scale, and I have tried them all, in different combinations. None seem to affect the resulting page size, which somehow is a property known to Adobe Reader, but seems invisible to Preview.

Are you talking about saving a C or D size dwg?
In this case I had to create a custom size. However, I solved the problem by simply setting the correct paper size in the Preview Print dialog box, before saving as a PDF.
Saving out of the "Save As" dialog box is still a problem. I note on the Adobe web site that a fully Leopard compliant Reader is not available until "late January". Maybe that will solve it.
Anyway, thanks for chiming in.
