Adobe form: Issue with BACK, CANCEL and EXIT buttons

I am new to Adobe forms. I created a simple demo Adobe form and was able to print it successfully except a strange problem.
Whenever I opt for print preview it shows me a blank page. On pressing enter it shows me the form, But now none of the BACK, EXIT, CANCEL buttons work. On pressing any of them I keep getting the print form.
So the only way I can come out of it is /n.
Can anyone please help with the reason for such an issue and how to get rid of it.
Regards,
Ashutosh

Maybe you can tell us something more about the code you use to print your form. I think thatis the problem. Otto

Cancel and Exit button not working

Dear Experts,
Cancel and Exit button not working
I am calling a screen from inside a report program
using SET SCREEN 9000.
2 of the date fields(start date end date)
on this screen are Mandatory.
I am not able to Come out of this screen 9000 using
CANCEL or EXIT button
without giving a date entry in both of
Mandatory fields (start date end date).
Can someone help me with a solution?
Appreciate your valuable help;
Points assured
Thanks,
Aby Jacob

Hi..
To avoid this problem you have to use AT EXIT-COMMAND Module.
1. In the GUI Status for both EXIT and CANCEL buttons assign the Function type E (Exit Command)
2. In the PAI of the Screen Call this module.
 MODULE EXIT_SCREEN AT EXIT COMMAND.
3. Now check the OK_CODE or Sy-ucomm in this module to Leave the Screen
 MODULE EXIT_SCREEN INPUT.
 CASE OK_CODE.
 WHEN 'EXIT' .
 LEAVE TO SCREEN 0.
 WHEN 'CANCEL'.
 ENDCASE.
 ENDMODULE.
This will surely work.

Adobe forms issue with signature pads

Hi everyone,
I am new to and just joined this forum as I never had to until this point. I am having some strange issue with adobe forms and using signature pad.
I have a form built using adobe X. I am using Topaz signature pad to have a digital signature in my form. My application (which was built on Progress 4GL) opens up this form using rich text editor. Most of my clients remote login to use the application. Every now and then my clients complain that whenever they click on the signature field on the form to open up the signature pad window, it kicks them out of the whole application. This happens so randomly that they can't predict when it occurs. I logged each and every lines on my code to see if there's any issue with the codes but they all execute fine. And I can't log after the form is open as adobe takes the control and they handle the communication with signaute pad. So far I have checked if there's any memory leakage that would kick me out and it's fine. And I think there's no driver issue as this happens randomly. A client who gets kicked out 1st time if tries the 2nd or 3 rd time following the same steps and same form, can successfully gets the job done.
Have any of you had faced similar issue. If you have any solutions or ideas that would be a great help to me.
Thanks!!
Him

Updates: Just found out that this issue rises only to the clients using Wyse terminals. Has anyone had any issue using Adobe forms and Wyse terminals?

Adobe flash issues with both IE6 and Firefox

I just installed adobe flash 9 on my win2k computer. When I
try to go to www.yourminis.com I get two different results, in IE6
I start to get a web page, but then IE freezes. In Firefox, I get a
big blue quicktime Q the blinks a bit, then a question mark
superimposes over the Q and nothing else happens.
I also cannot view this page under Firefox in Freespire
Linux, but there, it tells me I don't have a new enough version of
Flash Player, but I downloaded and installed the newest version
available for Linux, and I tried both the normal automatic install
and the manual install (which was a pain in the butt because
Freespire has no admin log in, and you have to do all your copying
of files from a command line using the sudo command...)
Why is this happening? I even have an issue with flash and
the yahoo home page, in IE6 it works fine, but in Firefox, where
you normally see the yahoo logo at the top of the page, instead you
see the big blue Quicktime Q and then the question mark, and the
yahoo logo never comes up (this isn't a big issue, I don't need to
see the animated yahoo logo, but since Firefox is doing the same
thing on www.yourminis as it is with the Yahoo logo animation, I
thought it might be significant)
I even disabled ALL file types in Quicktime's settings except
Quicktime Movies format, because QT won';t LET me disable that one.
Still having the same problems.
Oh, and all this is happening under Administrative User, with
full priveledges in Win2k, so don't tell me I need to be admin or
something like that.

*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Issue with on/off and volume buttons

My iPod Touch buttons are not responding. I am unable to shut the iPod off with the on/off buttons. I am unable to reset the iPod by holding down the on/off button and home button simultaneously. It has no effect. The iPod remains on until it runs out of battery power. I reset the iPod Touch using iTunes. It has had no effect.
Also, the volume button does not work. Volume cannot be turned up or down and seems to be regulated to a medium volume.
idk what could be the issue since no damage has been sustained to the unit. Evidently it just decided it wasn't going to turn off anymore, nor let me listen to my music. Grrrrr.
Any ideas? The buttons don't "feel" like they're broken. They still 'click' when I push them. They just don't respond. I've reset the iPod several times but nothing changes (except that it used to disconnect from my wifi constantly - that seems to have been fixed in the process of resetting it)

What do you mean by "I reset the iPod Touch using iTunes."?
If you successfully restored (went through all steps without error) to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

You are going to have to contact Adobe on this one. We are other users.
Sounds like it's not even an Apple question? Not sure.
But the Adobe program changed, nothing changed in iTunes, right?

PHP email form - issue with who it's from

Hi,
I've got a referral page on my site where the user puts in their details and a friends details and the form fires off a email to the friend. The form is in HTML and posts it to a PHP file. The problem is I get in the email for who it's from:
from
"Scott Bradshaw"@server74.ukservers.net
I don't want the
@server74.ukservers.net
in their.
Is this an issue with PHP files and forms or is their a way round it? I know I could do a mailto: form but don't want to. What are my options?
Thanks, Scott

I've also got a feedback form thing too, the script above wouldn't work for it I guess as it's protecting against different thing but what's the best way to protect the feedback form? I've heard of a honeypot thing where create hidden form field.
Thanks, Scott

Compatibility issues with CS5.5 and Maverick 10.9

I'd like to know if there are any compatibility issues with CS5.5 and Maverick 10.9 before I upgrade from 10.6.8.

To be honest, I use the CS5 Premium Creative Suite and have had to upgrade all my app's to Mavericks because I have a new iMac, the other one just died.
I used the 'Time Machine' to backup and to transfer all the files, the Mac apps almost transferred 100% but not all successfully, especially iDVD, it was probably something that I did not click in the 'Time Machine preferences'.
If I had the choice, upgrade to 'Mountain Lion, I would revert back to Mountain Lion but not got the discs, I find Mavericks very clunky and slow and causing lots of issues with my Adobe applications.
So if it is not too late, I would wait a few months before upgrading to Mavericks.
Hope this info' has helped.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP coldfusion and PHP search?

I am working through Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 with ASP
coldfusion and PHP with the intent of creating a data base site
that primarily requires a search engine on the index page. The
search page in the book uses specific search criteria ensuring that
there will always be a match to the data base but I need to create
an input text field search engine. My Q, if there is no data within
the data base that match the variable, will it return with an error
requiring an argument in the code to respond to no matching data.
Hopefully there are comprehensive online recourses for these search
engines as they are so common. I am a complete newby to all aspects
of web development and code so it will need to be a thorough
explanation, an idiots guide. ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED

Rob,
Let me try to answer your questions, understanding that my
answers are laced with my experience and therefore my bias.
1. For the most part the SQL that you write for Access, MS
SQL or MySQL is going to be the same. I won't make that claim about
Oracle or PostgreSQL because I have limited or no experience in
those areas. To be sure when you head down the road with any DBMS
there are finer points on 'value added' features (to over simplify
things like MS SQL's Transact SQL), but for the most part when you
are pulling out, inserting or deleting records the SQL that you
write will be the same. In fact, I don't think I had to make any of
the SQL in the book different to deal with the back end db.
2. As for your host steering you away from MySQL, I don't
know why that would be. It is MUCH more stable and robust than
Access for web development. My research showed that you can use
MySQL just fine with ASP though that clearly wouldn't be
Microsoft's first choice.
3. A quick aside, the fact that you are building ASP on a Mac
would seem to indicate that you are developing on your production
server. That's never a good idea. Go local if you can. If you have
a newer Intel Mac you can use VM Fusion, Parallels or even Boot
Camp to run Windows in a virtual environment and develop there,
only moving your code to production when you are happy with it.
There is of course the fact that they two environments would not be
identical and you may need to change a few references, but it is
still a better practice than developing on your live site. Some web
hosts give you the ability to set up a subdomain. If yours does,
you could set one up with a duplicate of your site and develop
there.
4. Let me try to pull your 'rant-let' apart into two issue. I
begin with a question. I'm not sure what the Mac part has to do
with it. The primary language I work in at my day job is
ColdFusion. The majority of the most serious developers I know in
the CF world work on Macs. I am forced into the PC world because of
a cultural bias at the business school where I work. Having said
that, the only time I have felt there was ANY difference in the
tools, resources, choices I had was in any way affected by platform
was when Adobe still had not released Flex Builder 2 for the Mac.
Now that is behind us as well. This reaction of mine may be based
on the fact that Access never comes into play in the work that I
do. I regularly work with MS SQL and MySQL. (OK, so SQL Enterprise
Manager, the MS tool of choice to talk to MS SQL is Windows only,
but I only use that at the day job. But even there you can find
cross-platform, free tools like Aqua Data Studio to talk from a Mac
to MS SQL.) If I'm missing your point on the Mac, please let me
know. Since the advent of the Intel Mac I think it is hands-down
the best choice for a web developer. You can have Mac, Windows and
Unix all on one machine. It doesn't get any better (providing you
have the RAM :-)).
As for the security question, it is somewhat analogous to the
war on viruses and spyware. As the defenses get better, so do the
attacks. Most languages have developed functions for vetting user
input variables and best practices for building these things. It is
mainly a user education issue. When I took over the book you are
working out of, the one thing Jeffrey told me it needed was more
security. I did my best to put more in under the constraints of the
publisher. They didn't want the book to be any longer than the
previous version. I did my best to modify the code used to include
"string safe" functions and to add verbiage about the importance of
security. It was clear that I could not add as much as was needed
and I said so in the book. Much more is needed for a serious
treatment of the subject and not acknowledging that would have been
a disservice to the readers. I've been working as a developer for
over a decade and I don't know all there is to know about it. It's
a constantly changing field, just like all of web development. In
fact next week I'm going through a 2-day SANS Web Application
Security workshop in hopes of learning more. So at the risk of
sounding like an industry apologist, I don't think it's a
shortcoming of the development community. It is, as they say, "a
developing situation".
HTH,
Bob
