Urgent Form Help Needed

I am trying to fill out a pdf form created by the Government of Canada and when I enter text in to the one of the text fields it does not keep the text there the text field merges with the box above.  The form is available here: http://www.international.gc.ca/development-developpement/assets/pdfs/partners-partenaires/ calls-appels/iyip-psij-form-2014-eng.pdf . The fields I am having the problem with is 1.1 Internship Details which when I put in the answer (1200 words) it half merges with the text box above 1.0 Rationale for Initiative.
I have downloaded a number of versions of the file (on a number of pcs) and they all have the same problem. There are problems downloading the form in Chrome and some of the other web browsers but the newest version of IE works.  I need to know if I am doing something wrong or if there is a problem with the form itself. I'm using Adobe Reader XI to fill the form and it was created using LiveCycle Forms 9.0. The creator of the form is highly unlikely to offer any assistance unless I can prove the problem is on their end. This is an RFP due tomorrow and my job kinda depends on it. HELP!

Hi Erin,
I've downloaded the form and tried to fill it in myself. I'm able to paste in 700 words (just under 4000 characters) without issue, but anything above that produces the error that you describe. So, it seems to me that the form designer may have imposed a limit on how many characters can be entered into that form field.
I hope that helps....
Best,
Sara

  • Urgent export help needed

    Extremely urgent help needed! I'm on a tight deadline. I'm working on a sequence, with all my settings set to DV. My client needs an AVI file as an output. After exporting using conversion, the file looks and plays fine, except for any transitions. At the start of each transition, there is 1 frame that is unrendered. I have rendered the entire sequence, and tried the export many times now, and I can't figure out what's wrong. I'm working on v5.1.4. Can someone please help?????

    Thank you, kind sir! < </div>

  • Product Specific Form - Help Needed

    I have a client who will be selling firearms and ammunition on a hunting site, along with other hunting products.
    I need to have a form specific for firearms and ammunition products that will be required to be filled out before that product firearm and or ammunition can be added to the cart. The laws in Canada are very strict about purchases of such product on the internet.
    How do I do this or is it even possible to have a form specific to these products pop up when add to cart is clicked?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello river east,
    I'm just spitballing here, but here is one option for this to work.
    Basically you would create a secure zone and if the user isn't signed in they wouldn't see the Add to Cart button.
    The js would look like this - http://jsfiddle.net/chaddidthis/uDmXj/1/
    As a part of signing up for the secure zone they have to accept the gun and ammo purchasing terms. You could have the link to the form on the large product page, sends them to either log in or sign up via the form they need to fill out. After then fill out the form they are sent back a page sending them back into the large product view they were on, and since they are signed in now the product will be able to add to cart.
    Maybe this will spark others to add on to this, but that is pretty much the only way I could think to accomplish the desired results.
    Hope it helps,

  • Basic form help needed

    I am new to Dreamweaver 8 (but have worked with simple html a
    quite a bit) and am working on building a, hopefully, simple
    prototype for a project. What I need to do is collect user-entered
    text and user-selected dropdown box data on one page and send it to
    another for presentation there. After looking at the Help screens,
    I looked at using Session variables and it seems that is the best
    way to pass the data. Where I am stuck is in the (from Help
    Contents) Making Pages Dynamic - Creating Forms - Creating HTML
    forms help. They first say to, in step 2, Select Insert > Form
    (which doesn't do anything - you have to click another option,
    which I figured meant Form again). Then, in step 3, they say to
    "Specify the page or script that will process the form data." by
    selecting the file in the Action box in Properties. I don't have a
    file to "process the form data" and don't really know what they are
    talking about. Help!
    I originally (before I reverted to using Help) set it up with
    Insert->Form->Text Field text entry boxes, figuring this was
    a Form field that could be captured and passed on. Right? Wrong? I
    guess I thought the method would be to define a variable name
    associated with a text input field in one page, then pass it with
    the value to the next page. That is pretty much what it seems
    Session variables do (?), which I discovered when I started looking
    at Help.
    So, was I on the right track for a simple implementation and
    missed the way to capture and transmit the data, or do I need to
    use the Forms->Forms option? If the former, how do I define the
    variable names? If the later...well, I am real confused then. :-)
    Thanks for your help.
    (btw, we do have training material coming - went with
    Dreamweaver for Dummies, Peachpit Macromedia Dreamweaver 8 Hands-On
    Training "dead tree media" and TechRepublic Fast Track Dreamweaver
    8 CBT. Any opinions on those?)

    Session variables as the name suggests are created when a
    user starts a session and last till the session is open. You form
    doesn't really need session variables unless you are carrying form
    data from one page to another and need to keep it associated with
    that specific user such as in shopping cart applications.
    I have never used the dreamweaver insert form, so can't help
    you there. why not code the form yourself, especially since you
    have been using html
    The link below may help.

  • Urgent!help needed!!Payment issue!!!

    Urgent help is needed!! Anyone especially customer support from adobe can help me???Thanks you very much!!

    Hi Prasad,
    if you have performance problems with your table because of lots of different controls in it, then maybe you could try instead of that to create two tables, one for display of rows  (only textviews), and the other table for editing only one row (currently selected row). The second (for edit) table can be shown only when you want to add a new row, or edit selected row and it can be hidden when you are finished with editing selected row.
    In that way you can have one big table with only textviews and no events, and one small - one row table for editing with dropdowns, datepickers etc.
    You can put EditTable(the one for editing) above ShowTable (the one in which you display rows as textviews).
    ie.
    EditTable
    ShowTable
    Hope that helps,

  • UCM Web Form, help needed

    Hi,
    I just have started working on Oracle UCM. I am majorly stuck with web form (HCSF).
    Below is the form code,
    <form name="CommentsPageForm" method="POST" action="<!--$HttpCgiPath-->">
              <input type=hidden name="IdcService" value="SUBMIT_HTML_FORM">
              <input type=hidden name="dID" value="<!--$SourceID-->">
              <input type="hidden" name="RevisionSelectionMethod" value="Latest">

              <input type="hidden" name="RedirectURL" value="<!--$HttpCgiPath-->?IdcService=GET_FILE&dDocName=<!--$ref:dDocName-->&Rendition=Web&RevisionSelectionMethod=Latest">
    <!-- All input fields and conditional code -->
    </form>
    If I keep the dID input field then it throws an error message like following
    Content Server Request Failed
    Unable to submit HTML form. The HTML form is not the latest revision.
    If I remove the dID input field then it throws an error message like following
    Unable to execute service (null) and function computeDocID.
    (System Error: Either dID must be specified or RevisionSelectionMethod must not force the choice of a dID.)
    I have tried to remove and add other input fields but nothing has worked.
    Please help me out with this. Please point out where I made the mistake. I copied
    codepieces from Bex Huff's book, that too had same error.
    Regards
    Udita

    hi All,
    I'm facing the same issue, I have a soap request which will update the metadata field on the service call.
    The request url is coded as
    var requestUrl = httpCgiPath + "?IdcService=UPDATE_DOCINFO" + "&dID=" + datafileID +"&dDocName=" + datafileDocName + "&xComments=" + inputComments.value + "&dDocTitle=" + inputTitle.value + &idcToken=#active.IdcToken" + "&IsSoap=1";
    When I fetch the dynamic url and tried in browser then I get following error:
    Content Server Request Failed
    Unable to update the field. The authorization token is invalid. It has either expired or is not appropriate for the current request.
    You may need to reload an earlier page in order to proceed.
    See I have added idcToken as you guys suggested still token issue :(
    Any pointer for this issue will be helpful.
    Thanks

  • Urgent array help needed! come get some duke points

    this program keeps track of rentals for a shop. Other methods and classes not shown (like Customer, Transaction classes) are also in this program. Every item (created with a constructor in Item class) can hold an array of up to 20 transactions; part of a Transaction object is a rental total, based on a number of rental days * specific rental price for that item rented (backhoe, edger, etc.) If the user presses "t" for total amount of transactions, the following method is called, which calls the getTotalPrice() in another class called Item. My problem here is that even if I enter in transaction amounts, when I press "t", the program just quits, not producing the report and returning me to the main class. I have been over it with the debugger and I am still lost. Below is some selected code; I hope it is sufficient. Please let me know if I need to put up more
    //main

    Don't flag your questions as urgent. It's rude. Also don't think that waving with a couple of worthless Dukes is going to get you better/quicker help.
    The reason I respond to your question is because you have explained your problem well and used code tags.
    Try this:class Main {

  • Urgent webcam help needed please

    i didnt know where else to put this post. Anyway i just got a logitech fusion webcam which they sell on the apple store. i plugged it in and set it up. whenever i speak to anyone on skype(its the only one i use). they always say that around every 20 seconds they get a noise their end that sounds like wind noise. ive opened up the sound box in preferences and can see it happening form the noise indicator. but dont know what it is or how to stop it.. any ideas i really need help.. thanks in advance. the webcam by the way has a built in mic and i have the output coming through my speakers. ive also moved the speakers away from the webcam in case of interference but no joy.. please help..

    Hi-
    Checking the Skype forums reveals a concensus that the problem is most likely within the Skype software.
    http://forum.skype.com/index.php?s=6b9ae6327268168f5c1291d17df06400&showforum=15
    Some suggest disabling the mic, and using a seperate mic. This is because some believe the hardware combo (camera/mic) over USB is the problem. Others suggest using the macam driver. Others still, claim there was no noise before 2.5. There are even problems with the Windows version, apparently.
    A new Skype for Mac beta was released today- 2.7. You can download it from the following link:
    http://forum.skype.com/index.php?act=announce&f=15&id=38
    Would be adviseable to report the current bug to Skype. Include all system details, software and OS versions. The more people that report the problem, the sooner a fix will come about.

  • Forms help needed

    I have several forms on my website and I need each to send
    the form to two email address, and also send back an auto response
    when email is sent out. Also after submit button it says your
    request has been submitted and then after about 8 seconds it takes
    them back to the home page.
    How do I do this? I have the forms done but need help with
    the rest above (two emails,auto respond,ect.)
    Thanks

    There are only two ways to process form data -
    1. Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
    2. Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the
    form's data, b)
    process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a database, c)
    formulate and
    send an email to one or more email recipients, and d)
    redirect the visitor
    to some ending page
    Method 1 is quite simple, and is also the least reliable. It
    depends both
    on your visitor having an email client already installed on
    their computer -
    this eliminates public computers, or home users without email
    clients
    installed (more and more it seems) - and on the installed
    email client
    responding to
    the mailto call. It is not possible to use this method *and*
    send the
    visitor to a
    thank you page as well.
    Method 2a is the preferred method, since it eliminates the
    problems of
    method
    1, but it means that you have to grapple with
    server-scripting somehow (ASP,
    CF, PHP, perl, etc.).
    Method 2b would be to use some third-party form processing,
    like
    http://www.bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/.
    You would have to decide which of these methods is best for
    your needs,
    but if it's Method 2a, then start by asking your host what
    they provide for
    form
    processing. If it's 2b, then read their FAQ/instructions
    carefully.

  • URGENT THREAD HELP NEED!!

    Hi,
    I am trying to attach a very basic phone file browser (based on the one bundled with the J2ME toolkit) to an interface and am have great trouble.
    I think it is to with not using any threads, which i have no idea about. I searched and read some articles to help, but it has not aided the problem and any changes that i make..make no difference.
    I have two classes; one that deals with just transversing through the file system FileSystemBrowser and the other is the GUI that displays the file system graphically called TextReader (ignore the name it will change when the program is finished).
    The Toolkit keeps throwing this message at me every time i run the classes in the emulator:

    networking, should be performed in a different thread than the
    commandAction() handler.

    My other class FileSystemBrowser has two main methods that are used :
    public void transverseDir(fileName)
    public Enumeration listContent()
    The first method transverseDir(fileName) just adds and removes bits of a file path represented by a string. Nothing to processor intensive. The other method listContent() uses FileConnection methods such as (FileConnection)Connector.open("blah blah") to connect to an actual directory and FileSystemRegistry.listRoots(); to list the inital root files of a phones filesystem.
    I've tried implementing threads on them but it has made no difference and i dont know if im doing it right or whether they even need to be threaded, because the problem may be in the interface. But if this is so i still dont know where it is and how to fix it.
    CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE?
    I Am doing this as part of my final year project as a university student.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the replies guys,
    Thats really good stuff to know, but im still not sure what to place inside the thread? (e.g. methods if this is the case which ones or which class), do i need to synchronise anything? if so..what needs to be synchronised? I have read some articles on threading and understand the concepts but i am at a loss when it comes to actual implementing the thread correctly. Because when i have tryed to use threads the same error is thrown:
    Warning: To avoid potential deadlock, operations that may block, such as
    networking, should be performed in a different thread than the
    commandAction() handler.
    Can can one give me further directions on where they think i need to use the threads and synchronisation and how?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Checkbox in tabular form - help needed

    I'm trying to build a tabular form, with a checkbox for a field that can have value 'Y' or 'N'. Adding the checkbox is no problem, with the htmldb_item.checkbox API.
    However, processing it is.
    On this forum I found a way to process the checkboxes, by looping through all the records (with the help of htmldb_item.hidden in which the id is stored) and reading the value from the checkboxes and updating the column if the checkbox is checked. (see Re: Report with updateable checkbox)
    however, as soon as I add a htmldb_item.hidden item, I receive the following error when I submit the tabular form to the Multi Row Update process:
    "Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Error in MRU: row= 1, ORA-20001: ORA-20001: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. "
    My query:
    Select id
    ,htmldb_item.hidden(1,id)
    ,htmldb_item.checkbox(2,id, decode(field, 'Y', 'CHECKED', NULL))
    from table
    What am I doing wrong?
    is there a better way to process a tabular form with checkboxes?
    Or should I process all the rows manually by updating every record even if it hasn't changed (with a loop through all the records)?

    Tonnie, did you ever get an answer to this question?

  • Urgent Report help needed

    Hi Guru's,
                     I have a query which gives amount of calls for every month.But my requirement is i need to calculate current month calls/lastmonth calls *100.I need suggestion on how to get the last month calls
    for example
                          05.2008                                                  06.2008
    Sevrity        Amount of calls                         Severity   Amount of calls
        2                  500                                         2                  400
    I am able to see in the query like this.But How can i calulate the last month calls to show in my formulae
    Please help,
    Regards
    Srikanth
    Points will be assigned

    Hi Srikant
    Create two structures in key figure side in query.
    one for current month call & second for previous month call then creat a formula as (current month call/previous month call)*100. It will do
    Now if your problem is how to create a key figure for previous month then:
    -> create new structure
    -> Select the desired key figure
    -> take month characteristics & go to its restriction
    -> take Month Characteristics as value range between from month to month
    -> Now drag it into selection panel, then select it & "off set variable" as (month -1)-(month)
    if month characteristics is not there then you can do the same thing with calender day
    -> as for previous month "off set variable" as(calendar day-60)-(calendar day-30)
    -> for current month "off set variable" as(calendar day-30)-(calendar day-1)
    you will get the things done
    Cheers
