Can't Submit Forms

Hello,
I have a form that I have to submit and it will redirect me to a webpage where i can upload files. Or I have the option to click save and submit later where it saves the form adn takes me back a page.
On Windows it works perfect. But on my Mac system, when i click the link for the form, it opens in Acorbat (i've also tried Reader) and when I click submit I get this prompt:
The document is trying to connect to
file:///index.cfm?event=VendorsOnly.submitEventForm
If you trust the site, choose Allow. If you do not trust the site, choose Block.
I click Allow, and then get "Error opening URL to submit this form" obviosuly because the URL is wrong. I've tried opening the pdf in preview and the two buttons do nothing.
I also tried installing the firefox pdf plugin, which displays the pdf in my window, which is nice, but i still can't click any of the buttons to do anything.
I'd appreciate it if anybody could lend some advice.
Thank you,
Tom

For it to work, you have to configure things so that Acrobat or Reader opens in a browser. As far as I know, this is possible with Safari (in 32-bit mode) and Acrobat/Reader, but no other browser/PDF viewer combinations will work on the Mac.

How can i submit form-data with acrobat pocket pc

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).

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.

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'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".

Can't submit form with table of buttons

          > When I click a Klaar button, the browser doesn't even go to klaar.jsp.

          The reason: you close your first form too early. Put the </form> after
          your <input type='submit value-'Klaar' .....>
          Oh BTW, this is a shocker - too much Java inside your HTML! You should
          consider writing a custom tag. (My 2 cents)

Can't submit form with multiple signatures

I have a form with multiple signatures. I've enabled Reader Rights. After the first signature signs, the user must save the document. When the document is saved, then the user cannot submit the form to the next signer. Is there a way to change how this is working?
Thanks,
MDawn

MDawn
Did you design the form with Adobe Designer? Assuming you did, when you add a signature field, there is a property enabled by default that "Locks all fields" after signing. A submit button is also considered a field so it will be locked after the first signature is applied.
You need to either disable this property (I would not recommend this) or create field collections that are assigned to specific signature fields. A field collection controls which fields are locked by each signature field when signed.

When I try to use the Submit Form button on the Interactive PDF I created (IN Design CS6) I get this message. "There is no value in form field 'Program.' Please put in it before proceeding. What can I do to fix this and make the Submit button work?

Are you running modified software on your phone? This error seems to be common if the firmware has been modified and you're trying to restore the phone again.

Where does the "Submit Form" button get created and how can I change the associated email address?

I've created a pdf form using Adobe Live Cycle ES 8.2 and it has been working fine. Now I need to change the email address it gets sent to when the user clicks on the "Submit Form" button.
How can I change this email address?
Thank you in advance

Yes, that is correct.
I did not manually add this button, so I am assuming it was somehow automatically created.
It worked great up until now that I need to change the "To:" email address.
I've look through the XML code associated this this email address and changed it every where I could find it, but it still hasn't changed my results. So, I have no idea how to change this and as stated above, if I create a new form it automatically sets it up to be sent to the wrong email address. Not sure why or how to change it?
Let me know if you need further info to help me out.
Thanks again

Can a submit button send forms directly to an email address?

Hi, I'm just trying to design a form for an online business and am wondering whether I can have all forms sent directly to an email address to notify me of an order. I have Acrobat 9 Extended and Windows 7. Cheers

Yes, when you set up the Submit Form action, specify a mailto type URL. Make sure mailto is lower case and there are no spaces, something like: mailto:[email protected]
If you want Reader users to be able to send the entire PDF, it must be Reader-enabled: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader

Can you submit a form and pop up

Hello everyone,
I want to submit a form and pop up the submitted form,
because on the original form, there is table I want to keep
displaying to the user. My code:
<form action="process.cfm" method="post">
<input type="text" name="species">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
I guess something needs to be done on the first line, but I
am not sure what. Can anyone help? Thanks a lot!

Add a window.open() to your form onsubmit attribute.

How Can I Submit A Concurrent Program Using Form Personalizaton?

How can I submit a concurrent program? Please help!
Thanks in advance
PhuTri

I think the problem in your case coould be that the Concurrent Program you are trying to run has not been registered in the responsibility from which you are runnig it.
For eg. You are trying to run a program from Inventory Super User responsibility and the request group attached to the responsibility is say 'RG Inventory', but the concurrent program which you are trying to run from your inventory super user responsibility is registered under some other request group say 'RG Order Mangement' which is not attached to the nventory responsibility.
So register the program under correct request group and see if this helps you.
Other possibility is that check if you have permission to submit request from that responsibility. You can check this by going to the Menu ->View If the Request menu is disabled then you cannot submit the request.

How can I prevent forms from being prematurely submitted when users click on the "Enter" key?

Is there any way that I can prevent Dreamweaver CF submission forms from being prematurely submitted by the user when he/she clicks on the "Enter" key before they have completed the form? I need the users to finish form and click on the "Submit" key. I have the "Submit" key action configured as "submit form"

Thank you!

Field validation using distributed form's "Submit Form" built-in function

Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me out with a small problem I'm having. I have a hidden field on a form which is the total of other numeric values on the form with code in place so that if the number doesn't equal what it should, the alert box is displayed. The problem is that it's a distributed form and even though the message is displayed, if you hit submit (Built-in Submit Form) button form on a second attempt, it submits anyway. So the question is, how do I change the built-in API submit button code to catch the error? Because it's a distributed form, am I dealing with global variables vs. form level? I've tried using the "event.rc = false" at the form level to no avail. I can't seem to locate the built-in "submit form" code so that I can change that to make this APP work. Or is there a better way to do this. My validation code is below and I would greatly appreciate anyone's help.
Thanks,
Tom

They should add up to 136, but are adding up to " + this.getFiel ("RankGameTotal").value + "."); } } else { }

try67,
Thanks for your reply. When you say to "remove the Submit action, and submit the form yourself inside your code" are you refering to the
distributed forms "Submit Form" button displayed on the purple tool bar of the distributed form? And if so, could you please let me know how I can do that? I've
looked into that and haven't found an answer. Doing that would solve my problem of having my own submit code acting correctly and the
distributed forms "Submit form" code not having any idea about my forms desired field value.
Thanks again,
Tom
