Problems creating basic forms in DW CS3

Hey I'm having some real headaches here getting my form to
work in DW CS3. Take a look at
www.investix.co.uk/booking-form.html....as you can see I've got my
form all set up with all the text fields and buttons that I need
ready to go and process the form data entered by the user and then
email this form data to me.
Now here's the problem...the form code that I'm using just
won't work! Everytime I enter test data and click Submit button,
nothing happens. I have a booking confirmation page at
www.investix.co.uk/thank-you.html which I want to direct users to
once they have clicked the Submit button.
The form code I've got in DW is below.......so the 2 things I
need to figure out is first how to make this code work so I can
capture all the form data and then have it emailed to me, and
secondly to divert users to the booking confirmation page
(www.investix.co.uk/thank-you.html) once they have clicked the
Submit button.
I need to get this problem fixed asap guys (like this
weekend!), so I would greatly appreciate everyone's help on this.
Any comments on the overall quality of the website are also
welcome!

How to create a form with DW CS3?

Hi all,
I want to create a form to gather email, address information on a website. Question, can I do that using
DW CS3? and what else do I need in order to do that? I know there is more to it than just creating a form
with fields, that there is programing behind it. I use 1 and 1.com for my hosting.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You'll need a form to email processing script. Ask your host if they provide one you can use. If not and your server supports PHP, I highly recommend this one from DB Masters. It is safe, secure and with good spam prevention built in.

Help with creating basic form in Dreamweaver.

I am creating a contact for in Dreamweaver CS6. I have watched many tutorials which say basically the same thing. I set up form by inserting form into div.
Then I insert- form-text field. I fill out the id, label, click the "for" wrap label attribute, click "ok". I see that "Name:" but do not see the input text box. What am I missing??
This is the code:
<div id="request_for_info">
    <form action="" method="post" name="requestforinformation" id="requestforinformation">
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" id="reqinfotable">
        <tr>
          <td width="43%" align="right"><label for="firstname4">First Name:</label>
          <input type="text" name="firstname" id="firstname4"></td>
          <td width="57%" align="left"> </td>
        </tr>

In it's simplest form (pun intended), copy & paste this HTML5 form code into a new, blank document. Save As test.html.
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>HTML5 form</title>

</head>
<body>
<p>Contact Form</p>
<form id="contact" action="form-processing-script.php" method="post">
<label for="first_name">Name:</label>
<br>
<input name="first_name" id="first_name" type="text" required placeholder="First">
<label for="last_name"></label>
<br>
<input name="last_name" id="last_name" type="text" required placeholder="Last">
<br>
<label for="e_mail">E-mail:</label>
<br>
<input name="e_mail" id="e_mail" type="email" required placeholder="[email protected]">
<br>
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
The other piece of this puzzle is the form-to-email script necessary to gather and process your form data. Do you have a script yet? If not, do you know which scripting languages your server supports?

Problem creating basic views while creating materials using idocs?

hello,
I am facing an issue while creating materials using idocs. The problem is that the basic view does not get created whereas other views are present. The function module used is idoc_input_matma01 and the basic idoc type is MATMAS03.
Looking for help. Thank you

Hi Madhu,
Actually i recieve an idoc from PI containing data required for cretion of the material via an idoc. This idoc is then processed to create the required material.
The material gets created with appropiate data in various tables(mara, makt) but when we view material in mm03 we cant see the basic data views.

Problem creating a form on a table from another custom schema

Hi,
I have a table in a custom schema that i have granted SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT and DELETE to our apex schema. I have created a synonym for this table under the apex schema but I can't build a form for it. If i try adding the form when creating the application, it gives me an error about not having a primary key on the table, which i do. If i create the application with a blank page and then try to add the form, it gives me an error that the table must contain at least one column, which it contains 12. If i view the table in the SQL Workshop, it gives an accurate count of rows in the table but doesn't provide any information about the table and doesn't display the data.
If I login to TOAD under our apex schema and view the synonym object, i can see all of the information about the table - the columns, the primary key, etc. But I can't see it inside the Application Express app.
Can anyone tell me why this is and what i can do to build a form on this shared table?
Thanks,
Troy

Troy,
I suggest you get rid of the synonym and then don't use the Create Application wizard for this purpose. Instead, create the application, then use a create page or create form wizard. It should first ask you for the name of the schema that contains the table. If you get that far, you should be on your way.

Creating basic forms that can be scored and print out as PDF

I'm looking to hire someone to help me with a project.
Very simple need, but I want it to be clean and work perfectly. Basically I need the user to be able to click check boxs or write information into a form. I want the form to score the check boxes and give a result. The write-ins will just stay. I want that form to them be given to the user as a PFD.
If you know what you're doing and want a job, I will hire you for this. I have several of these items to do. I'm happy to pay you whatever a reasonable fee would be.
If you're interesting, please contact me.
Thank you,
Stephen

Kind of sever... hmmm... I don't know. I use godaddy.com
Does it support PHP and MySql.... hmm... I host through godaddy. I think so
The forms are highly variable. Let's start with this one: clinical criteria for major depressive disorder (as below). I would like the user to be able to click yes/no and for it to keep track.
Criteria for Major Depressive Episode
A. Five (or more) of the following symptoms have been present during the same 2-week period and represent a
change from previous functioning; at least one of the symptoms is either 1) depressed mood or 2) loss of interest
or pleasure (do not include symptoms that are clearly attributable to another medical condition
1. Depressed mood most of the day, nearly every day as indicated by either subjective report (eg, feels sad, empty,
hopeless) or observation made by others (eg, appears tearful)
2. Markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities most of the day, nearly every day (as
indicated by either subjective account or observation)
3. Significant weight loss when not dieting or weight gain (eg, a change of more than 5% body weight in a month), or
decrease or increase in appetite nearly every day
4. Insomnia or hypersomnia nearly every day
5. Psychomotor agitation or retardation nearly every day (observable by others, not merely subjective feelings of
restlessness or being slowed down)
6. Fatigue or loss of energy nearly every day
7. Feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt (which may be delusional) nearly every day (not
merely self-reproach or guilt about being sick)
8. Diminished ability to think or concentrate, or indecisiveness, nearly every day (either by subjective account or as
observed by others)
9. Recurrent thoughts of death (not just fear of dying), recurrent suicidal ideation without a specific plan, or a suicide
attempt or a specific plan for committing suicide
B. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas
of functioning
C. The episode is not attributable to the physiological effects of a substance or to another medical condition
D. The occurrence of the major depressive episode is not better explained by schizoaffective disorder,
schizophrenia, schizophreniform disorder, delusional disorder, or other specified and unspecified schizophrenia
spectrum and other psychotic disorders.
E. There has never been a manic episode or a hypomanic episode.

Help creating a form in Dreamweaver CS3

Hello, I am trying to insert a form in order for people to
fill out their info, submit (and a re-set button for info if
needed), and for the form to go to a specific email address.
I have the table created (i just copied and pasted from a
sample online)
How can i create this? I am pretty new at this :)
I am attaching the code to what i copied and pasted.
Please help, thanks!!

You can make a form in DW but you need a server-side script
to process the
information for you. Suggest you look at one of the
formmail.php scripts.
Dont bother with anything old like formmail.cgi.
http://www.dtheatre.com/scripts/formmail.php
for example.

Need help creating a simple form in Dreamweaver CS3!!

I'm trying to create a form in Dreamweaver CS3, and while I have the form built I'm confused as to how to make it actually function. What I'm trying to do is create a form that when the visitor clicks submit, the data is emailed to me. Can someone help me figure out how to accomplish this?
Thanks so much!

Ute's answer is spot on - you need a FormMail script to process the form. Check with your host (or via the control panel) and see if they supply such a form for free.
If not, google for "formail script' and you'll find quite a few available - all free to use.
You just need to add a couple of lines to your html code, change a few things in the formmail script and the form will process. Sounds complicated but most scripts come with a help file to help you get off the ground.

Cannot create new form in portal

hello
i have a problem creating a form in portal!
i log in portal with the username orcladmin, then i click on builder -> navigator -> providers -> open(any provider) -> create new form (or report or chart)
i get the error in internet explorer The page cannot be found (link =http://marpolas.marpol.si:7783/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwexp_api_engine.create_action)
in netscape the error is a little different
The requested URL /pls/portal/PORTAL.wwv_menu.menu was not found on this server.
it is imposible for me to create new forms in portal.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance
Marjan
p.s
i use portal on windows 2000 server, 1800mhz and 1gb ram

Sounds like a problem with the privileges.
Try creating a new user, say user_temp, and grant the user Manage privilege to All Portal DB Providers and Manage to All Schemas.
Try creating a form after logging in as user_temp.
The minimum privileges required to create a Portal DB provider component is Create privilege on the Portal DB Providers and Manage on the Portal DB Provider schema.

Problem with Buttons/Form Fields in Acrobat PDF when created in InDesign CS4

So I have been working for quite some time on an interactive form for an internal client at my job. It has two major components, one is the side bar navigation, which I created using buttons in InDesign which link to bookmarks in the document. The second aspect is that I also created "check boxes" accoring to this video: http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/cs4/articles/lrvid4434_ds.html
I have two major issues:
1. Whenever I try to convert my boxes to form fields in Acrobat it will not recognize them unless I save out 4 pages at a time (rather than the whole document).
2. I then have to combine the document and get multiple sets of bookmarks, and some bookamrks are corrupted (not working properly). Even when I try to convert the whole document some of the buttons are corrupted.
UGH tired of this project, I am really bastardizing the whole thing to get it done, but want to figure out the problem as this is an ongoing document that we will be using over and over again in future years.
I am attaching the pdf file--this is a pieced together one (saved out 4 pages at a time) (which I did do some fixes to to get buttons to go to proper locations) and the original indesign file (partial file due to size).
PLEASE OH PLEASE HELP ME!

Acrobat's Form Wizard is good but not perfect when creating form data from a PDF. I have never encountered Acrobat not able to finish the process of creating all form fields, but have encountered very slugish performance afterwards when there was a lot of forms, buttons, and other elements within the pages. And I would say, from your attached PDF, it is pretty heavy with content. I am going to suggest an idea, but I have not tested this to see if it would work.
In InDesign, create a layer for your navigation tabs, and a layer for your text with the check boxes. Create two PDFs from ID, one PDF with just your-nav tabs, the second with just your text with check boxes. In Acrobat, perform the Form Wizard on the second PDF and see if this will finish, the idea here is to reduce the cllutter for the Form Wizard to finish. If it does, you can merge the first PDF as a layer with the second to have a completed document. Again, I have not tested this theory.

How to create a comment form in Flash CS3

I am trying to create an add comment form in Flash cs3. I
have the background design and the text input areas and sub mit
buttons. But how do I get the submit button to add the comment to a
different area in the same flash file? My inputs and buttons are on
the left side of the stage and my display comments is on the right
side of the stage. How do I connect the two?

The user types something into a text input space and when the
user then uses the submit button, you want that same, user entered,
text to display in another, different, text area? If that's the
case then make that second text area a dynamic textfield and set
its text property to the text property of the input text
space.

Problem when creating a Form with Launch Task Form Wizard

Hi all,
I'm using jdeveloper 11.1.1.6 over Windows 7 64bits for my BPM project.
I'm a new with BPM and i have a problem when trying to create a task's Form with the "Launch Task Form Wizard". I'm trying to create my Form based on a custom template, i already have imported the template as a library, now after i have selected the template i follow the wizard and i reach the wizard's rowX-columnX where i should choose the field i want in my form, but the problem is that i don't see any fields in that part of the wizard, the window is empty :(
I have created a business object based on a XSD, then i created a process data object based on the previous created business object and finally i used this data object as a parameter to the human task.
What could be my problem ?? :( :(
Regards
Carlos

I have also faced this issue few times. There could be a namespace issue / schema issue. Please check if you are able to see task:task in the schema section anywhere in the .task file you created. If that is not shown, the fields will not appear while creating human task form.
Thanks
Ashwini

Problem while creating script form - lang EN is not available in client 800

Hi friends,
I getting a problem while creating a script form in SE71.
if I give the name of the script (zform1) and clicked on create then its giving an information message like " Form ZFORM1 language EN is not available in client 800".
But if I use this form in the abap program its giving stop message "Form ZFORM1 language EN is not active and has no errors" and the control is coming out of the program.
What could be the problem and how to solve it friends . Please help me.
Thanks
-Hima

Hi There,,
By default all the forms will be there in client 100, if you are using the exisiting form and making a Z copy of the same,, then first you will have to copy from the client 100 to 800.
If you are creating the form right from the scratch,, you will that message,,but need now worry about that..
go head and create the Zform, don't forget to activate the form, before calling in the driver program.
In the driver program,, call the function modules to invoke the form and activate the driver program as well. then you are all set/
Thanks-
Rahul

We now use Acrobat xi for special active forms we created that include certifications and signature fields, some of the forms are programmed to create other forms, will we have a problem upgrading to DC

We now use Acrobat xi for special active forms we created that include certifications and signature fields, some of the forms are programmed to create other forms, will we have a problem upgrading to DC
Our users use a form template to create other adobe forms with calculated fields, signature fields (using digital signatures)
, and buttons. Will we be able to continue developing these forms if we upgrade to Acrobat DC?

Hi Alex ,
In general ,you would not have any issues and problems moving to Acrobat DC .It has a different user interface and with more enhanced features .
You would be able to develop the kind of forms you are referring to .
You could refer to the following document to get more information about Acrobat DC .

If in case you are referring to any particular issue or problem or if you face any regarding Acrobat DC ,we are always here to help you with that .

Creating a form with a field that contains a simple math problem.

I am creating a form in Acrobat 9 Standard that contains a field that requires a simple math function (divide).
if (QuantityRow1 > 0)
ExtensionRow1 / QuantityRow1
Take the value input in ExtensionRow1 and divide it by the value in QuantityRow1. I have included an IF statement to prevent an error that occur if QuantityRow1 were equal to zero.
After inputting the data into the two fields I tab past the field where I expect to see my result and the field remains blank. I don't receive any error messages.
Any ideas? Thanks - jb
