Can I submit form using app.launchURL

I want to submit a pdf form without replacing my page. I need it open in new tab.
The script below is work, but it replaces my old page
this.submitForm({
cURL:
"http://localhost:8080/project/TestServlet",
cSubmitAs:
"PDF",
cCharset:
"utf-8"
This script is open a new tab but I have no idea how can I submit a form using this
app.launchURL("http://localhost:8080/project/TestServlet", true);
Can anyone guide me how to submit form with open new tab on the web browser?
Thanks.

No, you can't submit the form like that. You could submit some form data as
a URL parameter, though.

  • Problem using app.launchURL with Adobe Reader X

    Hello -
      Have an application that is going live in a couple of days.  In many of our fillable PDF forms we use:
    app.launchURL("http://www.yoursitehere.com", true);
    This worked fine until our company pushed out Adobe Reader X to all of our employees.  Now the above function does nothing.
    Is anyone experiencing similar?   When I say the function does nothing, you click on button that runs the above function, and no new window opens with specified URL.

    I am not quite sure what that means.  Can you please explain?
    This has worked on same client pc before with version 7 - 9.   Now doesn't work anymore since upgrade to Adobe Reader X.
    Note:  ALL other AcroScript functions work properly
    Really appreciate any assistance you have.
    Jeremy
    *** UPDATE *** - I just tested more.   The only thing that is NOT working is the second parameter of the launchURL.
    If I remove that parameter, or put FALSE, then the URL opens.  However, it opens in the same window which is not what we need.
    Putting TRUE in there produces no result.

  • Using app.launchURL to make an mp3 play in hosts default program?

    Im trying to find an easy way to provide audio help from within the forms, so am using app.launchURL to target mp3 files (have soundbooth so can change file type if that helps make it easy).
    can someone tell me how or if you can point at an mp3 (or whatever) and include code to make it auto play in the users default audio player
    so i guess im after app.launchURL("https://www.whatever.com/mp3samplename.mp3", PLAY_IN_HOST_DEFAULT_AUDIO_HOW?)
    thanks

    Hi,
    Some time ago I downloaded JavaScript for Acrobat API reference doc. In this doc i found some function which can be helpfull for you - getPlayers.
    I didn't check is it working in Designer ES or not, but you can try )
    Example 1
    List MP3 players to the debug console.var mp = app.media.getPlayers("audio/mp3")
    for ( var i = 0; i < mp.length; i++) {
    console.println("\nmp[" + i + "] Properties");
    for ( var p in mp[i] ) console.println(p + ": " + mp[i][p]);
    Example 2Choose any player that can play Flash media by matching the MIME type. The code assumes the code below is executed as a Rendition action with associated rendition (so no arguments for createPlayer are required).
    var player = app.media.createPlayer();
    player.settings.players = app.media.getPlayers( "application/x-shockwave-flash" );
    player.open();

  • How can i submit form-data with acrobat pocket pc

    how can i submit form-data (http-post) on a PPC?
    how can i store the data offline?
    which submit-functions are availabe for the pocket pc reader?
    do i need ARES?
    where can i find a documentation of of the available functions for the ppc version?
    where can i fond form-samples for ppc?
    from the docu on my pocket pc:
    Submit form data using handheld devices over a wireless connection. If you are working offline, the data is temporarily stored, then submitted once a connection is established. Send forms by e-mail or directly to the destination server using a cradle or cable

    To your question regarding the Pocket PC version of Reader, I downloaded Adobe Reader for Pocket Pc 2 and installed it on my HP iPAQ . I then loaded my test PDF file onto the iPAQ. The Reader for Pocket PC preformed an email submission fine. However, I received no indication that anything happened when I tried an HTTP Post. So I think you can only do an email submission.
    In general, I have been testing to see how much I can do without the Live Cycle Reader Extensions, since for sure I will never be able to purchase them. What I have found is that for Acrobat Reader 7, the email submission works for all of the people I have asked to test it, but the HTTP Post has worked for only one of the two people who have tested it so far with Reader 7 (the one for which it worked claims that he only has Reader 7 on his computernot Acrobat).

  • We can't create form using dblink  and synonim

    We have created a dblink pointing to a table in the remote database.
    When we create a form based on table or view using this dblink, we get the error "page not found".
    We read from
    Re: I can't create form using dblink
    that we must create a synonim, and this was done creating one in the same schema of the db-link using the "Database Objects" of oracle portal 10g (external db is an oracle 9.0.2).
    The new synonim work (tested with reports and pl/sql page)
    but if we click on "Grant Access" (of the synonim) we get the following error :
    Error: The underlying object of the synonym does not exist, is a remote object or is not of type function, procedure, package, sequence, synonym, table or view. (WWV-17076)
    Does form work only with table and view of the portal database (not external one)? or have we loose something in the creation of the synonim?
    Have someone succesfully created a form based on a db-link towards an external database?
    Thanks to all.

    Hei guys, has nobody created succesfully a data-driven forms based on a dblink towards an external database?
    I can't believe this!!!!

  • Can't submit reviews in App Store.

    Can't submit reviews in App Store. Press submit, it goes away, but app asks me to rate it.  I go back and click rate app and my review comes back. Can someone help please?

    Aside from the free app you were trying to download, make sure your Mac meets Lion's requirements...
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    From here > Apple - OS X Lion - Technical specifications
    When you have problems downloading apps from the App Store, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
    And try turning off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security
    And make sure you have logged out of iTunes before logging into the App Store. With the iTunes app open, from the menu bar top of your screen click Store > Sign out.

  • Can't submit forms online

    Whenever I am online shopping at a website or filling in a form that I need to submit it will not work.  It always says my email is invalid.  Is this a settings issue that I can correct?
    Thank you

    Here's my suggestion:
    1.  Make sure you have a Contact card set up for yourself (in the Contacts application), with your email address correctly entered.
    2.  In Safari, open Preferences --> AutoFill and check "AutoFill web forms: Using info from my Contacts card".

  • Submit form (using submit button)

    I've created a form and added a button to submit it. I've added a 'Submit a form' action to the button and set the url as mailto:[email protected]
    However, when I distribute the form and try to test it in Acrobat Reader (as 99% of submitters will) the email comes to my address as set in the Acrobat Professional preferences (identity). If I change my preferences and then distribute the forms it goes to the right place but surely I can set a form to go to another address without updating preferences - isn't that the point of the submit button action?
    Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

    jonbradley wrote:
    then using the 'Distribute forms' command - is that anything to do with it?
    I think so.
    Use instead:   Advance > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader...
    Then save it.
    I never use that Distribute command.

  • Submit form using web based email service

    I regularly get sent forms by my printers which I fill in to approve print jobs. There's a submit button the forms which has always nicely opened up Mail (Mac OS X) in order to send a data file that the sender can read. However, I've just recently started using a different email client (Postbox) and I get this error from Adobe Acrobat...
    The SendMail doesn't know how to talk to your default mail client.  Please select a different mail application to use.
    I can't find a way to change the settings though. I used to be given the option between sending via a desktop or web based email service but a while ago I ticked the box to 'not show this message again'.
    Anyone got any ideas how I can maybe use Gmail or similar to send these forms?
    Cheers,
    Jon

    Dear Frances,
    The "Submit by Email" button enables to submit your form data in two modes.
    1) Default Email Application (MS Outlook)
    2) Use Webmail
    You can use option 2 to submit form data through Webmail.
    Thanks,

  • Strange behaviour on Safari when trying to submit form using iframe

    Hi All,
    Not sure if this is the correct forum to raise this question
    I am using iframe based mechanism to submit my login from and it is working fine on each and every browser except Safari.Here is the HTML form I am using to submit the information
    <iframe height="0" width="0"  name="loginFrame" hidden="true"> </iframe>
    <form:form action="${loginActionUrl}" method="post" commandName="loginForm" id="header-signin" target="loginFrame" name="header-signin">
      <input type="text"   name="j_username" id="header-signin_j_username">
      <input type="password" name="j_password" id="header-signin_j_password">
      <input type="button" class="btn1" value="Sign In" id="login" formnovalidate="formnovalidate"/>
    </form:form>
    and here is the java-script code
    $(document).ready(function(){
    $("#login").live('click',function(e) {
          if(validateSigninForm('header-signin')){
              $("#header-signin").submit();
    there are some additional JS code which is being used
    if($('#header-signin_j_password').length){
        document.getElementById('header-signin_j_password').onkeydown = function(event) {
            if (event.keyCode == 13) {
             triggerSigin(this.form.id);
    triggerSignin is simple using Jquery submit method to submit the form.
    When I fill the password filed and press the enter button, everything is working fine and page is getting refreshed with the help of the iFrame, but if I click on the sing in button, Safari is opening a new browser window and sending null values to the back end server.
    This behavior is only noticeable for the first time and if I click on the signin button second time, It will be working perfectly fine till I close the browser and open it again.
    I am not sure what is going wrong here and this approach is working fine on all other browsers.
    Can any one help me in this?

    Okay I tried something new.  I changed the email address listed under my account in the Server app, and then went back to add the short name again.  This time it allowed the save.  Then I went back to Server and changed the listed address back to what I entered as the short name, and it let me do that, too. I guess the order you do this in matters.  Odd.

  • Can't submit JSF using Javascript

    I apologize if this is an obvious newbie question.
    I have a simple JSF page with a component users can click on to select a number. Using Javascript, I populate a textbox with the number they select, then attempt to submit the form, also using Javascript. But this doesn't work.
    The form submits and returns as though the user had submitted without a value in the textbox, and then their number appears in the textbox (it should be empty at this point).
    The form works fine if I use Javascript only to set the value in the textbox and require the user to manually press the Submit button.
    TIA for any help!

    Sorry, this is in the wrong place (and I can't find a way to delete it). Please ignore.

  • How can I submit form data to an outside url after a purchase?

    I'm using BC as the ecommerce portion of a site that sells certificates that people will purchase.  There is an outside developer creating PDF certificates with their info and a custom code.  Does anyone know how I can submit data from purchase form to an external url?

    Two ways.
    To get around cross site restrictions:
    - In javascript dynamically create a hidden iframe, copy the form data into that iframe, attach an onload event to that iframe, submit the form (in the iframe), once the iframe as loaded, submit the BC form as usual. Google around there should be examples out there.
    - Use JSONP to do the same thing, but this will use a GET so your data wont be encrypted at all (this might not be a concern for you and you'll need to check if the outside developer making the PDF can handle this response).

  • Can i buy and use apps from a different store

    Wanted to buy (Crazy taxi-By Sega), but it says that it isnt available at the Indian Store and asked me if i wanted to change my store to US.
    Can we do that?
    Will i be able to use these apps bought form other stores??
    Regards,
    Sandesh.

    The short answer is, no, you cannot buy from another store.
    The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store.  You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
    E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE
