Contact Form data to Google Docs/Contacts?

In Adobe Muse CC, I want to create a single-line signup form just like the following I have already created using the form widget:
However I would like the results to be sent straight to a spreadsheet in Google Docs, or more preferably straight into my Google Contacts so that I start building an email list from the submissions (I use Google Apps for Business).
And if at all possible to have a tag in Google Contacts associated with them automatically so that I know who in my contacts list came from my website form.
Is there any way that I can do this?
Is this a feature of Business Catalyst webBasics subscription?
Can I do this using a site hosted somewhere other than Business Catalyst?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no direct way to link your webform to a Google Spreadsheet using Muse. But You can try to export your site as html and use some code like PHP. Here is a helpful article,
http://www.farinspace.com/saving-form-data-to-google-spreadsheets/
Note: Business Catalyst does not support PHP or any server side scripting language
With webbasic subscription, it is not possible, As you donot have the access to the CRM, you can see the detailed Plan Breakdown here, to see what is included in which plan.
http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html
In Business Catalayst there is a feature called mailing list, you can use it, check the guide below

Regarding Godaddy, I have no idea, how they work, so it's better you reach out to there technical support to get a detailed instructions

Creating a cfhttp multi part form post for google docs upload

Hey all,
If you saw my last thread, you know I am working with google docs and uploading documents to it. Well I got basic document uploading working, but now I am trying to include meta data. Google requires you to include the metadata with the actual file data and seperate them by using a multi part form upload. I don't know exactly the process for doing so, but they have a handy code snippet of the desired results at
http://code.google.com/apis/documents/docs/3.0/developers_guide_protocol.html#UploadingDoc s
So I am basically trying to mimic that payload, however I am continually getting an error stating that there are no parts in a multi part form upload.
<errors xmlns='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005'><error><domain>GData</domain><code>InvalidEntryException</code><internalReason>No parts detected in multipart message</internalReason></error></errors>
to be exact. I am not really sure what I am doing wrong here. I figure it is one of two things, either I am not including the actual data in the payload properly (I am currently using a body type param for the payload, but I have also tried a formfield named content to deliver it. Neither worked). So maybe I need to do something else tricky there? The other thing which I am not reallly sure about is the content-length attribute. I don't know exactly how to calculate that, and I read in another forum that a content length attribute was messing that guy up. Right now I am just taking the lenght of the payload string and multiplying by 8 (to get the number of bytes for the entire payload) but hell if I know if that is right. It could be I just don't know how to set up the parts for the message, it seems pretty straight forward though. Just define a boundary in the content-type, then put two dashes before it wherever you define a new part, and two dashes trailing the last part.
Anyway, here is my code, any help is much appreciate. I'm a bit beyond my expertise here (not really used to trying to have to roll my own http requests, nevermind multipart post form data) so I'm kinda flailing around. Thanks again.

Safari and Google Docs

Anyone been successful in scrolling google docs within the ipad safari browser? Scroll works fine on my iphone within safari/google docs. For some reason I can not seem to get it to work on the ipad (tried two fingers instead of one). Any tips? Any luck?
Second, I can not add data to google doc pages... anyone had any luck there?

I'm sure Google will adapt their online apps to work with the iPad. It's probably just confused by iPad's user-agent and feeding the wrong version of the online app.

Forms created in Adobe LiveCycle are blank when viewed on a BlackBerry or previewed in Google Docs

Hello All.
I have searched the forums and all over the internet and have yet to find a solution.
A customer is using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1 to create a custom PDF form and email it to a distribution of users.
When they open the file from their mail client it opens using Adobe Reader and all of the information submitted in the form is viewable.
If the user opens the same file on their BlackBerry or views the file in google docs the data entered in the form is missing ie: the form is blank.
Is there a special way that the files need to be created in order to be viewable using other PDF distillers?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

There are two issues: Are the press releases being created in Reader or Acrobat? If in Reader was the extended features enabled in Reader?
If they were created in Reader with an enabled pdf file or Acrobat, then the problem is with the software on those devices and you would have to ask Apple or RIM, it is their issue.

Using CFHTTP to submit a form directly to a google docs form

Ok so here is some background
Google has a service where you can create forms using google docs and embed them into your webpage, Results are automatically stored in a google spreadsheet upon submission.
I want to use my own form to submit to to the google form processing page which I can get to work however the default generic google hosted thank you page appears upon submissing.
I know you can use cfhttp to submit a form from a coldfusion server so I was thinking that I could simply pass my form variables to a action page that resubmitted them via cfhttp and thus bypass the thank you page altogether
however when I try this it does not work and the results do not show up in the google spreadsheet. I figured that mabye the google processing page could tell that it was not submitted from a browser so I tired adding a useragent string but still no luck.
Here is the code I was trying to use
<cfhttp method="POST" url="https://spreadsheets.google.com/formResponse?key=tlo4FjygqMuUGmvuOb2_Gjw" redirect="yes" useragent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.2; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0)">
     <cfhttpparam type="Formfield" name="entry.0.single" value="testValue1" >
     <cfhttpparam type="Formfield" name="entry.1.single" value="testValue2" >
</cfhttp>
And the online spread sheet can be viewed here
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=tlo4FjygqMuUGmvuOb2_Gjw&single=true&gid=0 &output=html
Does anyone know why this is not working?
To recap I am able to use the following form on my own comptuer to directly submit to the processing page and this works
<form action="https://spreadsheets.google.com/formResponse?key=tlo4FjygqMuUGmvuOb2_Gjw" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="entry.0.single" value="" >
<input type="text" name="entry.1.single" value="">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
Any help would be greatly appreciated

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This did it final code is as follows thanks for you help
<cfhttp method="POST" url="https://spreadsheets.google.com/formResponse?key=tlo4FjygqMuUGmvuOb2_Gjw" useragent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.2; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0)">
     <cfhttpparam type="Formfield" name="entry.0.single" value="final test">
     <cfhttpparam type="Formfield" name="entry.1.single" value="final test">

Export PDF converts filled PDF form without the data - Turns filled PDF form onto blank Word doc. Is there a solution to this or did Adobe just sell me a service that doesn't work?

Export PDF converts filled PDF form without the data - Turns filled PDF form onto blank Word doc. Is there a solution to this or did Adobe just sell me a service that doesn't work?

ExportPDF is not for forms. In general, converting forms to Word is a really, really bad idea which can even cause legal problems. Work with the form as a PDF. Acrobat (not Reader) can export form data as simple text for example.

Need to copy form tag in source for google docs form...cannot find it?

I have a google docs form that has worked, but they have just introduced an acknowledged bug that kills it.
SO, i need to copy the form tag from the source code, but there is no form tag (in safari or FF on mac viewing on me.com). It is in an iweb HTML widget, does this some how change where I find the form tag?
Below are the steps. Looking at non-iweb site with google form, the form tag is there.
Where is it in iweb?
Thanks
bob
5) Right click anywhere on the page and click View Source to look at the code behind the form.
6) Copy all the code between <form> and </form> tags and paste it into the new form page on your web site.

This was my bad, I realized that the instructions were referring to the form tags in source of the google docs forms website...since it is hosted, the form is not actually in iweb.
Google forms changed, after submit instead of a link to return to the form (i.e. your web) the link now says "create your own form" which means the user has not way to return (except the browser back button). Google says they will correct it in a future version...
thanks
bob

I don't understand. I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat. If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

I don't understand. I use Google Docs to write letters & other forms, then convert them to PDFs using Adobe Acrobat. If Forms Central closes, will I still be able to do this?

Adobe also has Acrobat.com and there is DropBox.com. Adobe has also announced Adobe Document Cloud.
Forms central provide a subscription service for users with Reader to create simple forms. Apparently this did not meet a majority of users and with the minimal price difference for Acrobat and free web storage the users were better served without it. I expect cloud services will continue to emerge until providers better and more fully understand the user requirements.

Is the meta data in google search engine changeable?

Hi there,
I have made a website using iweb, published with mobile me and using web forwarding. The website when seen in google comes up with the following meta data to describe the site:
GALLERY shapeimage10_link0. ABOUT shapeimage11_link0. HIRE shapeimage12_link0. CONTACT shapeimage15_link0.
the website is catebakescake.co.uk
How can I change this? I have been onto iwebFAQ and it seems to say you cannot change the meta data and google looks at your page and describes it from the info on the page; but I am sure there must be a way to change the information as for some reason it is looking at the shape files of the page and not the text! Obviously I just want to put information about the site which explains what the site is about. I thought I had done this as I put the descriptions in when publishing the site with the web hosting company.
Thanks in advance

You can use iWeb SEO Tool to add tags and meta data but what you really need to do is write some interesting and relevant text for the search engine spiders to read.
The problem with your landing page is that there is no actual text for the spiders to read. Your "text" is an image so all they can pick up is the image titles and not the text.

How can I change the order of html form data submitted to me via email?

I am having customers contact me via an html form posted on my website using the "sendtoemail" command. When I receive the data in an e-mail it is not presented in the order it appears on the web page and I can't seem to find out what dictates the order the data is presented in or how I can change it.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can make HTML form data elements appear in the order I want?
Thanks,
Andy

How to save form data as XML using Reader XI

Dear all,
I have designed a form using live cycle designer 9 and activated the form extensions using Acrobat X Pro.
The form includes an email send button.
Our clients uses the Reader X and XI.
Using Reader X the pressing of the button will open a dialog box asking the user to send the form/form data using the default email client
OR
one can save the form data as xml file on the local machine and attach it later.
However, using Reader XI there is no such possibility of saving the data as XML. One can just chose between the default email client or another email account.
I tried even a button using javascript xfa.host.exportData("",0); but nothing. In fact the button shows no function at all.
What do I wrong?
Does anybody has a hint please?
Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty impressed of Adobe and their stuff (I do NOT refer to the community), how helpful they are.
Perhaps I didn't understand the meaning on the offical customer support website, stating:
The best way to contact us...
Ask our experts
Our community and staff are at your service 24/7
Even worst, their is a similar question from 25/09/2013 (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5711946#5711946) and no feedback form Adobe stuff at all.
Great service guys!
Thanks a lot!

There is something else that I just noticed.
There is a typo in the type attribute of the CSS files.<br />
Some have type="text/csss" instead of type="text/css" and that causes Firefox not to load those stylesheets.

How do i get rid of the confirmation popup that says This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed

when navigating on certain sites (fiverr.com is one), i get the popup confirmation "This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed to the new location?"
this is highly annoying and i can't find a way to turn this annoyance off. help!

because of its impact on security this error message cannot be suppressed. you might want to contact the admins of the website where this is occuring and ask them to implement a handling of user input without sending it to a different server...
