Autofill web forms doesn't allow choice of email address

Using a new MacBook Pro with Lion installed. I have multiple email addresses and want to use a particular one when filling out personal data on a web form. Autofill doesn't seem to allow that option. Is there a fix for this?

Well that is nice but before all I only had to enter in the first letter and I get a list starting with the first letter and usually the person I need is right there now I have to keep typing? This is not a upgrade in my opinion. IS there an option to just list starting with the first letter? IF not there should be. Is there a way to go back to the last version?
There is an old saying in engineering, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
I get a little of programers over working a product that works great all ready don't screw with the interface unless you make it a choice for the user. Adobe does this all the time I have to relearn the interface each time a programing has a bright idea.

ERROR: Your web form must capture customer name and email address.

Hi,
I keep receiving this error message when trying to checkout and submit a payment.
ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page.
The strange thing is it's only happening in chrome. It works perfectly in IE and firefox, the form submits and takes me to the order confirmation page. I've tested it on multiple PCs so it's definitely a chrome issue. Does anyone have any advice as to what could be causing this issue with chrome?
Thanks,

Check your eCommerce web form in the admin has the ID - 211729
This is what the form ID is, if you have deleted it and made a new one it will not Marry up
The things you normally look for with this error is The first name and last name along with email fields have the right ID and name parameters on the input. The javascript is picking those up so it looks like that is working.
So next is the form in the admin marrying up with the form on the page or in this case the Registration Buy layout.

How do i fix the "web form must capture customer name and email address" error?

Hi all,
I have a webform that is submitting securely to the bc servers. I get the response:
{"SystemMessage": { "success": False, "message": "ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page." }}
I have verified that the "FirstName","LastName","EmailAddress" are actually gettting sent with their corresponding values. I can't seem to figure out why i keep getting this error. Can someone please lend a helping hand?!? Thanks guys... here's my code:
var rAction = 'https://site.worldsecuresystems.com/FormProcessv2.aspx?WebFormID=85886&OID={module_oid}&OTYPE={module_otype}&EID={module_eid}&CID={module_cid}&CC={module_urlcountryc ode}&Referrer={module_siteurl,true,true}&JSON=1';
var rData = 'FirstName='+escape(fName.val())+'&LastName='+escape(lName.val())+'&EmailAddress='+escape (email.val())+'&Username='+escape(username.val())+'&Password='+escape(passwd.val())+'&Pass wordConfirm='+escape(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+escape(baddress.val())+'&BillingCit y='+escape(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+escape(bstate.val())+'&BillingZip='+escape(bzip.v al())+'&PaymentMethodType='+escape(paymentMethodType)+'&CardName='+escape(cName.val())+'&C ardNumber='+escape(cNum.val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+escape(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+esc ape(expYear)+'&CardType='+escape(cType)+'&CardCCV='+escape(ccv.val())
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: rAction,
data: rData,
success: function(msg){
console.log('success');
$('#result').html(msg);
error: function(msg){
console.log('error');
$('#result').html(msg);

Ok -- after testing this out a little on my own I think it must have to do with not properly serialzing the data you are passing in the ajax function. In the example I linked to earlier they are just serialzing the form data and it works because it converts the data in the form's input fields to URL encoded notation.
If you aren't using an actual form on your site to mimick the example I linked to then when building your "rData" string instead of using the "escape" function for each of the parameter values, you should be using the "encodeURIComponent" function instead which instead of escaping characters will convert it to URL encoded notation. That's probably your issue. Here's more about encodeURIComponent(): http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_encodeURIComponent.asp
Try this with the rData variable instead:
var rData = 'FirstName='+encodeURIComponent(fName.val())+'&LastName='+encodeURIComponent(lName.val()) +'&EmailAddress='+encodeURIComponent(email.val())+'&Username='+encodeURIComponent(username .val())+'&Password='+encodeURIComponent(passwd.val())+'&PasswordConfirm='+encodeURICompone nt(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+encodeURIComponent(baddress.val())+'&BillingCity='+en codeURIComponent(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+encodeURIComponent(bstate.val())+'&BillingZ ip='+encodeURIComponent(bzip.val())+'&PaymentMethodType='+encodeURIComponent(paymentMethod Type)+'&CardName='+encodeURIComponent(cName.val())+'&CardNumber='+encodeURIComponent(cNum. val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+encodeURIComponent(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+encodeURICompon ent(expYear)+'&CardType='+encodeURIComponent(cType)+'&CardCCV='+encodeURIComponent(ccv.val ())

Web form doesn't allow text entries and showing smart lists

Hi,
I am using Hyp 11.1.2 and facing 2 issues with webforms .
One of them is a cell under Account dimension should accept Text Value , which is allowing numeric only. I am able to enter text but not getting saved , showing an error msg that invalid entry..etc. Also I found everymember in outline is numeric. Even if I refreshed the Text type member with data type Text , it is still showing numeric in Outline.
Second one is even If defined a smart list on another member under Account, the cell is not showing it.
Is it relevant setting Evaluation Order or any thing else?
suggestions appreciated
Thanks in advance

The Text member like Smart List will be based on the evaluation order which for Classic is set by carrying out the following - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/planning_admin_11122300/enum_dim.html for EPMA - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epma_admin/epma_data_type_eval.html
Checking the Essbase outline is not an option because the text information is all stored in the planning relational repository (table HSP_TEXT_CELL_VALUE) and the numerical value associated with it is stored in essbase.
Cheers

Acrobat Form Wizard, need to change distribution email address

When I'm using the Acrobat Form Wizard, I don't want my respondents to email me, I want them to email the Department I'm creating the form for. How do I change the email address?

I've got a PDF form, created by a client, which I'm trying to setup for email collection of completed forms.
Problem is, when I go through the steps to "distribute" the form, it never asks me what email address I'd like the completed forms sent to. And in the end, it choose my own personal email address.
Instead, I'd like to be able to specify my client's email address so he can receive the completed forms.
Can anyone tell me how to change the default address for receiving forms?
Thanks,
Jade

    <p class="style6 style9">“I have been working with Owen Dawson for the past 7 years. During that time my swing has dramatically changed and improved. This has happened through Owen's drills and use of video. It is because of these techniques, that I understand how to hit good shots but just as importantly why I hit a shot poorly. I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to work with Owen and would highly recommend him. ” <strong>Sam Young - Country Club of Maryland - 2009 Men's Club Champion </strong></p>
    <p class="style2">.............................................</p>
    <p class="style6 style9">“Owen does two things particularly well, in my opinion. First, he is a master of recording technology, and it really helps me to see what I need correcting, and what the new move needs to be. Second, Owen knows what the best next step should be in your own journey to a better swing. I have taken one or two lessons from Owen each year for the last three or four years – one relatively small step at a time, and then worked on grooving that step. In that period, my index has dropped about 8 strokes, and in 2007 I won the Club’s “Most Improved Player” award. Kudos to Owen!”</p>

The only thing that really jumps out at me with your script is $HTTP_POST_VARS. That is a deprecated function as of PHP 4. something I don't remember the exact number. It is possible if your host upgraded the PHP installation that the function is now replaced by the simpler $_POST global variable ( http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.php ).
Also the easiest way to test this type of thing is to print your email text to the screen and stop the PHP script there before the mail can execute. Then you can check out what variables exist and what don't before finishing your script. Also I hope you have left stuff out for security reasons, because right now you appear to have no way to validate that a form was submitted in the first place.

How do I setup a form to validate a user's email address by having the user type in his/her address twice

hiya guys, can anybody help with this? I have a form already that works great but I have found some people are not typing in their correct email address - so really would like to have the validation which wont let them carry on until their email typed in correct

Hi kidsdomain ,
Where have you designed the file (Acrobat, Forms Central, Live Cycle designer)?

Email pdf form to field value and actual email address

I have a couple of issues I'm trying to solve and am not sure how to proceed. I need the Submit button to pick up a value from a field that the user has filled in and I need to supply an email address.
I need to provide the text for the subject line of the email plus add a value from a field that the user fills in.
I got those two elements to work based on scripts I got from the Forum.
But I also need the top half (or first page) of the form to be sent as a pdf and the second half (or second page) to still be an interactive form and a submit button that works similarly to the first Submit button.
How can I accomplish this? Apparently, I'm still not able to attach a copy of the form.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Margaret,
I am guessing that the forum has put in the spaces in your script(?)
Here is a screenshot of Paul's form:
You will see that Paul is passing "form1" through to the function. This is the name of the root node, so when clicked it will lock everything.
If this form had multiple pages and just just wanted to lock the first page "purchaseOrder", then the script would look like this:
myScriptObject.LockAllFields(purchaseOrder);
A couple of things to watch out for:
The script object "myScriptObject" is under the root node in the hierarchy;
That the script object name in your event matches the name in the hierarchy;
That the function name in the script matches that in the script object;
The script object name and function name should be different and also do not use reserved words like "node";
The name you are passing through to the function should match the name of a container in the hierarchy
A couple of things you can try would include setting up a trial button and having the script in the click event, just to get it working.
Also when previewing the form, press Control + J to open the javascript console. Then when you click the button, it will return any problem that is making the script fall over. This then makes it easier to find a solution.
Hope that helps,
Niall
PS Just spotted that the script object is not under the root node. This isn't an issue here because there is only one page and the button calling the script object in under the same node. As far as I know if you have multiple pages that call the script object, then it is better to have the script object under the root node, where it is available from all pages.

When I use a simple form, I get this error message "Form communication is configured with an email address of..." and the person's email address did not get sent a message

I was unable to use the simple form to which I should simply put the email address of the person to whom the form should be sent to. I get this error message:
As a result of this, this person did not get any filled form response. Where did I go wrong and how can fix this.
Second question, I am using GoDaddy.com account and they have their own set of php form. If I want to use their php form, where in Adobe muse, can I insert their php?

Adobe 9 Forms Wizard automatic Submit Button - Change Email Address

Hi,
I was wondering if someone would be able to assist me with an issue I have.
I am quite a new user with Adobe 9 Standard and have created an editable form using the Adobe 9 Form Wizard. The form creates fine but when I create it for distribution it creates a submit button in the top right of the form that can be seen by users who would fill out the form and it puts an email address, subject and attachement details into the button but when I go to edit the form in Adobe 9 I am unable to see this button or edit the details as I wish to change the email address.
When I first installed Adobe 9 and created an editable form I guess I was prompted for details for this but can not find where I can change these details.
From investigating this further by opening the form in Adobe 8 then saving a copy and then opening it again in Adobe 9 I can see the button and that the button executes a Java Script, as a work around I tried to edit the Java Script but this does not appear to work.
Ideally I would not like to use the work around to change it in the Java Script but would like to know what to change to make this work (just for future reference) I would like to find out how to get Adobe to prompt me for the email details again?
Your assistance is appreciated.
With Kindest Regards

I had the same problem with the email address. Took forever to figure out, but fortunately the answer is simple. On the Acrobat menu, go to Edit > Preferences, thenin the Categories section click on "Identity". Whatever name and email address you put there will stay with the document.

Web mail log in is preserving an email address w/ exposed password. How can this be fixed?

when logging into web mail, I mistakenly entered my email password while still in the address box. Now, whenever I begin to enter my email address, the complete address shows up (cool) and underneath that is the "alternative" address which includes my password (uncool). I have gone to Tools and cleared cache and cookies to no avail. How can this be cleared?

Web form doesn't fill the whole screen

I have forms (version 6i) running on the intranet. When I run these as client/server the forms fill the whole of the physical screen; but when in the brower, the forms leave a 2 inch border on the right hand side. I want the forms to occupy the whole of the browser window, but cannot seem to be able to do this. I've tried maximizing the MDI and the form windows etc etc, but still no luck. Anyone have any advice?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
When displaying forms in web,
the size of the form that is shown in browser is based on the height and width that you specified in you html file.
The html file in this case means the one that holds your forms java applets.
eg. width=800 height=600
View source the html file when you run the forms in web.(right click to view source from the 2 inches area) and check what's your height and width.
Hope this helps.

Applet opens a form doesn't allow keyboard input

Hi,
I testing something so everything I've done is really simple. I wrote a JApplet that has a JMenubar. Selecting a menu item opens a new webpage which contains an HTML form. The form has 2 radio buttons and a text field. The problem is I can't type anything into the text field. Press keys just causes the computer to go "ding" at me.
If I open a new browser for the form the text field is accessible. I want to keep the form in the same window. What's wrong with my code?

{createMenu();}
catch (Exception e)
{ System.err.println("createMenu didn't successfully complete"); }

P.S. This problem occurs when using Netscape 6.2. The applet works fine with IE 6.0.26. Other than "use ie" does anyone have any suggestions?
