Basic button or hyperlinked text to send email without form

Hi
I am relatively new to LiveCycyle Designer (included with my copy of Acrobat Pro ), and I am working on a form in which I am trying to set up a basic button (or text hyperlink) for the user to click on, to contact me by email for information.
I don't want to submit or attach the form/data from the form. I've tried scripting a "mailto:" item (for example using gotoURL), but on clicking the button, it doesn't work. So far, every solution I've found attaches the form, and I can't figure out how not to attach it.
Is there any way to script a button or hypertext email launch using mailto: without also attaching the form or data?
UPDATE: I think I found the answer:
xfa.host.gotoURL ("mailto:[email protected]")
So, no further help needed.
Kind Regards,
Stephen

If you upgrade to 10.4 there is a widget that will let you compose and send mail without opening Mail.
Here's two other options.
1. Does your isp have a web based email?
2. Download a program like thunderbird for email. When you configure it end phony information for incoming mail and only fill in the correct infor for outgoing mail.

Apex 4: How to send email when form is submitted?

Hi,
Using Apex 4.0.2 on DB 11g, I've a form with around 80 fields and 4 check boxes.
When the user clicks on submit button, besides saving the values in the database I also have to send emails. Selection of the 4 check boxes decides whom the email has to go to, i.e if 2 check boxes are checked, send 2 emails.
In the emails, some contents will be based on the data the user has filled and some from the database; also data in different emails will be different.
From what I've read, to send email I've to use APEX_MAIL API and make a conditional process depending on the check boxes selected. Also that I have configure mail server in database and that mail sever has to accept autonomous user (i.e. sending email without password)
Is this the right approach?
How can I do this?
Is there any example/tutorial that will guide me in doing this?
Thank you for your time.

The Apex email package is very simple.
v_id := apex_mail.send(
          p_to        => v_to,
          p_from      => v_from,
          p_subj      => v_subject,
          p_body      => v_body,
          p_body_html => v_html);It's up to you how you get the values of the variables.
Also that I have configure mail server in database and that mail sever has to accept autonomous userThe mail server is not in the database, but you do have to inform Apex which server to use (smtp.yourcompany.com).
Most smtp servers require user and password. In that case you have to write your own procedure. Search the pl/sql forum for email authentication and you will find many examples.
It is probably also possible to configure the smtp server in such a way that requests coming from the database do not need authentication. That is how we have it configured (but I don't know how the administrator did it, though).

Is there a way to send email without opening Mail.app?

Hello,
I would like to be able to send email using either an Applescript or a shell script that would send email without opening Mail.app. The ideal solution would be using an account and settings (such SSL encryption of my password) that are stored in mail.app. However, if that is not possible, I could set up another email account to be used just for the purpose I have in mind so I don't have to worry about my password being exposed in clear text.
I've seen Applescripts that open Mail.app and then hide it in the background but the key requirement for my particular need is that Mail.app never open during the send process. I synchronize my email between my iMac and my Powerbook using Chronosync so it is critical that none of the files that store or index the actual mail in Mail.app be opened so as not to alter their modification dates.
Thank you,
James

Send email without opening mail app

Hi
So how can I send email without opening mail app.
From: Overview of requested additional functionality, Ayuba Audu
Hi Peter,
There are a couple of services available that support sending emails via REST API calls. Of course, each such service requires a WADL connector to be created, but by taking advantage of resources such as the early alpha of our
WADL Generator, along with
our documentation, one will be enabled to do this.
This way you do not need to have the Mail application available, on the machine the app is running on.
Thanks.
Hi Ayuba
I guess the comment above was mentioned for this thread. If so can you please share a simple example file here or anywhere elese?
Thanks

Basically all I'm trying to do is to build an app for multiple users in one company. Each employer (user) is stored in collection with their password and email address. To get access to man screen of the app, employee must login in login screen. Chose his
name and type the password. I want to add a button for forgotten password so in case one of the employee would forget his password he can click on the button and receive on his email his password. The email what he will get would be for example from
[email protected] with mail body : your password is 12345.
So is that what you meant I can do with WADL generator?

Sending emails via Forms or pl/sql

Does anyone know how to implement UTL_SMPT for sending emails via Forms or pl/sql ?
If not, any other suggestions for sending a newsletter-type of email to a fairly large list of people ?
Thanks,
Bob

If your are using microsoft windows you can achieve this by using MAPI SESSION & MAPI MESSAGE ActiveX Control.
These controls are not installed in windows by default, you have to install these from some cd like visual basic, visual studio etc.

Sending email from forms using 'from'

I'm trying to send an email from forms. It goes well, but I like to use the 'from' field from Outlook. How can I use it in OLE? I have searched everywhere, but can't find it.
It seems to me it is something like the way you do with BCC and CC options, but I haven't found a way to do the same thing with the From field. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Pauline Kooy

Fabrizio,
Are you just sending the Line Feed character 'CHR(10)"? I typically send the Carrage Return character 'CHR(13)' as well. I'll create a variable called CRLF and assign the Carrage Return and Line Feed characters to this variable. Then reference the CRLF variable when I want to embed a new line.
For example:
DECLARE
   crlf         VARCHAR2(2) := chr(13)||chr(10);
   v_msg_body   VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
   v_msg_body := 'lots of text here'||crlf;
END;Hope this helps.

Linking a radio button to a text field in a pdf form

Forgive my ignorance but does anyone know how to link a radio button to a text field in an Acobat pdf form?
I have a series of 4 radio buttons. If you click on one of them I would like to activate a text field which you then have to fill in. In addition it would be good to have it so that if you don't click on the radio button you're not able to fill in the associated text box.
I am a designer not a programmer so I don't know much about javascript. Can anyone help?
Many thanks

You might want to look at Hiding and Showing Form Fields by Thom Parker. You might also want to clear the text field when the radio button changes.

Send email from forms

Can anybody send me a code how to send an email from forms
with attachement for multiple users
I am using oracle 8i and forms 6i
My mail application is Novel group wise
Thanks for your help

Oracle Reports can be run directly to email.
Check out the DESTYPE parameter.
To send emails you can use a call to Java Mail using the Java importer. There is a sample form for this in the Oracle9i Forms demos. This should work in 6i also.
You might also be able to use email from the database with the UTL_SMTP package:

Send email without reading confirmation

Hi experts,
I have an implementation in CRM 7.0. If a contract with special attributes is saved, in event management I trigger the sending of an email. This email is sent to a special email address and the sender email address is the one of the creating user.
Now, somehow have the effect, that if the recipient deletes or reads this system email, the user, who created the contract always gets an outlook reading confirmation or deleting information.
Does anybody has an idea how to suppress this reading and deletion information? I use the following standard class: cl_crm_email_data. I couldn't find a parameter to unable this setting.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Mireille

Hi,

Send email without user having to press send

Hello
I am new to Captivate and was wondering if there was a way to
send an email without the user having any input; specifically I
want to send the results of a quiz to an email account of my
choosing without the user having to press send, so this requires a
bit more than a mailto. In Flash I would achieve this by getting
the info into Javascript and then using PHP to send the email. I am
sure that this would work for Captivate too, but I was wondering if
there is any nifty inbuild way to do this?

Hi frosted,
If you have a subscription to Adobe PDF Pack or Adobe SendNow, you can share, send, and track PDF files using the Send feature. It would allow you to send the PDF file to your recipients without you having to worry about formatting being lost (of course, your recipients will need the free Adobe Reader to preview the PDF). This feature is also available from within Acrobat and Reader if you have a subscription.
The other option is to simply attach the PDF using whatever email client you have.
I hope this helps.
Best,
Sara
