Creating an interactive survey

Does anyone have code in creating an interactive survey? I'm fairly new to creating applets and interactive programs.
a. I would like to send a survey to my respondents.
b. I would like to receive formatted answers with them hitting a submit button after they complete the survey.
Thanks

The simplest thing to do is write a HTML form with all the questions in it. Then make the submit destination mailto:yourmail@wherever.
No java required.

What software is best to use to create an interactive CD?

Hi
I'm creating an interactive cd rom. I have made several interactive CDs already using a really basic bit of software called Autoplay Menu Builder (made by a company called Linasoft) but it has several limitations.
Basically it needs to be an easy to navigate menu with thumbnails of images that users can click on to open and print however many images they like (one at a time). The images will be pdfs as I will distribute a copy of Adobe Reader on the CD (yes I do have a license to do so!)
The main problem I am having with my current software is that each menu program I create can only handle opening 10 or so pdfs and so I need to have lots of menus linking to one another in order to be able to open all of the pdf files on the cd (usually several hundred files). Each menu program is an .exe file with autorun feature. Each .exe file is named 'autorun.exe' by default and I cant change the name without encountering problems. Therefore the CD ends up containing 100s of .exe files with exactly the same name and users are having problems with their virus checker software thinking that the CD contains a trojan virus.
So I need to come up with a new way of making these CDs.
Things I need my interactive CD project to do...
* Autorun from disc without prompt from the user
* Run from disc only - I don't want the user to have to install anything or need an Internet connection to use the CD
* Not to have issues with the most commonly used anti virus software (I know this might be an impossible task)
* Have a customisable interface and buttons etc.
* Enable the user to quickly and easily open and print 100s of pdfs one at a time
* It needs to work on older home computers - and if possible to work on both mac and pc platforms
I would rather not have it open in an Internet browser window - but would go for this option if I could remove/disable the navigation bar and give it some kind of skin (so that users don't think that they have to be online to use the CD - I know that sounds daft but it's quite important to the project I am trying to create).
After reading around the forums I think that Director seems the logical way to go but thought it was worth asking for any advice on the matter before diving in at the deep end - I'm not familiar with Director or Flash... but always willing to learn something new!
Any advice or comments very much appreciated!
Thanks, Emma.

Director will definitely do what you want, but, you will have to program the functions you need yourself. If you have programming experience from another programming language other than lingo (directors programming language) it's relatively easy to get the hang of lingo, most later director versions also supports java script. In addition you're going to need a few plugins (called xtras in director) to get all the functionality you need, specifically BuddyAPI to be able to load or open the pdf's and get a list of the files on the cd, and if you don't want to use the adobe reader you will need Impressario to view and print the pdfs.
Also, there are probably quite a few director users that have done something similar already so if you need help you can go to www.director-online.com or http://www.directorforum.com/ and search the forums (or ask for help).

How do I create an interactive PDF file with variable data

We would like to basically do a 'mail merge' of our list of customers with an interactive PDF file (including videos, menus, etc - not just form fill out and web links) to create a single PDF file that contains multiple mail pieces ... one for each customer ... with each mail piece being customized for that customer. Customizations would include different greetings (Dear Bob, Dear Dana, etc), as well as different charts based on data unique to the customer, different photographs, etc.
I've seen that InDesign and Acrobat Professional can be used to create an interactive PDF (such as from http://tv.adobe.com/watch/ask-the-adobe-ones/14-calling-rufus-about-interactive-pdf-making). However I don't understand how I can insert data from a database, csv file, excel file etc into the PDF file so that each page, or each set of pages, within the PDF can be customized.
Can anyone point me to a tool to use for this?
Thanks,
Bob Kendall

For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.

Is there a way to create an interactive form without Acrobat

Bottom line, is there a way to create an interactive form that can either be filled out and saved, or "submitted" with a mailto: button without having to buy a copy of acrobat too.
I have found numerous tutorials and examples, but everytime I try I run into the "action is not supported" error from adobe reader. Ironically, I have not problems saving a filled out form with OSX preview, but that won't work for PC users.
It seems like Adobe missed a step or is just forcing users to buy a secondary product to "re-save" a file with a form.

It’s not a failing at all. It’s just the way it is.

I have created an interaction to show 7 groups and 7 clickable objects. Once all are click the Next Button is show. How can you make that work if you want to embeded the SWF just created but show a button in a master Captivate?

In flash you can have a shell that has the navigation and some button in the shell are not activated until all clickable objects are clicked. I am not a flash programmer but it was related to using the path of shell and the sub-project.
Can anybody help me on that.
I would like to create Captivate interaction that you can just embedded in a Shell captivate project.
Do I need to set variables at both levels (Global variable.

Hello Lieve, That is the screen shot of my custom interactivity, when all labels are clicked the Continue button will be shown because there is a conditional validating if all Labels have now a value of 1. What I am trying to achieve is to create an interaction where where the continue button (an the back button would reside in another Captivate project. This way there is no reprograming required or use of share-actions. Everytime we use a similar advanced action or a shared action we have to make sure the object name in the advanced actions or conditional actions are not the same. I trying to make it a bit dump proof for somebody that does not know any thing about advanced action and just reuse the label interaction in may projects. (The only thing they would change would be the image and the content of the label.
Do you thing I going in the right direction. (As I said before I have custom javacript in Captivate 5.5) to unlock un button that was part of the LCMS ForceTen). I belive the word .this was part of the object path in the JavaScript. Can we hide and show a Captivate button.
I have embedded other Captivate animation in a Master Captivate but the objets were not talking to each other. (You can see a sample http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Erm4_qdybiA&feature=youtube_gdata). In that sample the continue is always there and can be click anytime. The 3 steps animation has been done as another project and embedded in my main captivate. I would like to implement a solution where a my 7 labels have to be clicked in the subproject before showing and enabling the Continue button.
I hope my explanation is clear enough.

Flash CS5.5 or CS6 creating an interactive ebook /app for IOS

I'm in middle ground here as I'm able to create a simple app for IOS using CS5.5 and was wondering if I'm able to create an interactive IBook ( which is actually an app ) to know what I mean if you go to the Apple Book Store and download the free "Beatles" Yellow Submarine you will see the interactivity.
When I write middle ground I mean I just finished downloading CS6 and looking at some tutes so if this is possible, which I know I can get the interactivity but its just putting it in book form that I was curious about.
thx
RD

I misunderstood you, because I'm not english speaker. But I will try to answer..
You develop 1 app. This app will include all that you wants. Page - it's just object. Each object can contain another objects. Like a tree and leafs. So you simply make 1 page with any animations. Page 2 with any animations and etc and combine this to one APP.
Here is the link, you can get free 8 pages. Will be good if you can spent $1.99 =)))

Hello ???,
We are experiencing this too at login in an application. The error is caused by violating the constraint WWV_FLOW_DATA_IDX1 on columns FLOW_INSTANCE, ITEM_ID in table WWV_FLOW_DATA. So for some reason the value of an item in session state is set multiple times.
When looking at the Access view (statement below) I see that there are multiple logins per second for a user (I have seen 12 times as maximum).
select login_name, application, access_date, count(*)
from WWV_FLOW_USER_ACCESS_LOG_V
group by login_name, application, access_date
having count(*) > 1
order by access_date descSince this count of logins varies from 1 to 12, it looks like it is not caused by the application itself, but I also don't have a clue what the root cause is.
Is there anyone else with more information on this issue?
We are on APEX 4.0 and Oracle 11g and the applications have all been built in this environment, so no upgrades have been performed.
Regards, Wouter

How to use Flash to create an interactive diagram

Hi all.
I am an extreme newbie. I would like to create an interactive diagram and somebody said I should use Flash to do it.
The idea is to create an organisational chart (like the ones you can produce in MS Word 2010). Each position will have its own box or button. When a user clicks on that box or button, a Word document or internet link will be activated and take the user to this other resource.
Is it possible to do this in Flash?
The reason why I am choosing Flash is because I would like to make alot of these diagrams and they have to go into Moodle. Apparently Flash is the only program I should use to import the diagram into Moodle.
Can anybody please help me with some advice on how to do this?
Thanks
Sharyn

For the diagram end of things... start by creating the diagram in Flash. Whatever you intend to use as clickable items, create them as movieclip symbols so that you will be able to assign instance names to them. You assign instance names by selecting the object on the stage and entering a unique name in the Properties panel where it says <Instance Name>. That name will be used in the code you will use to create the clicking/linking functionality.
The the linking end of things, start simple... create a diagram that has just one item to click and get that one item working. What you learn from that can be applied to the larger version. The same as stated in the first paragraph applies. The only additional info you need is creating the actual code. To help with that you need to decide which version of Actionscript you will be using, which might depend on which version of Flash you are using. AS3 is the most recent version of Actionscript, and it first came into being back with Flash CS3.
The first thing you need to do to make a movieclip useful code-wise is to assign it a unique instance name. So you drag a copy of it out to the stage from the library, and while it's still selected, you enter that unique instance name for it in the Properties panel... let's say you name it "btn1"
In AS3, to make a movieclip work with code, you need to add an event listener and event handler function for it. You might need to add a few (for different events, like rollover, rollout, clicking it, but for now we'll just say you want to be able to click it to get a web page to open. In the timeline that holds that button, in a separate actions layer that you create, in a frame numbered the same as where that button exists, you would add the event listener:
btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btn1Click);
The name of the unique function for processing the clicking of that button is specified at the end of the event listener assignment, so now you just have to write that function out:
function btn1Click(evt:MouseEvent):void {
   var url:String = "http://www.awebsite.com/awebpage.html";
   var req:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
   navigateToURL(req);

How to create an interactive pdf, hyperlinking text to a video on a usb drive?

Creating an interactive pdf in InDesign CS6, hyperlinking text to a video. Both pdf and video placed on a usb thumbdrive. When clicking link on Mac a warning box came up, but after clicking Allow the video played fine. On PC the warning box also came up but clicking Allow did nothing

You'll need to use startDrag and stopDrag in order to be able to move an object (the slider handle). You will need to specify a rectangle that has 0 height for the drag limits. The width of that rectangle will define the maximum value of the scroll (which will be the maximum value of your scale.
Assuming you will have a linear scale for values along the drag line, the math is fairly easy to manage. The x property of the handle at the minimum slider position should be 0. You use the ratio of the current x position of the slider handle to the full width to determine what value to assign ( ex: ratio = handle.x / rectangleWidth). So if the minimum value is 1K and the maximum value in 10K, you essentially have 9K represented by the length of the line, so the value provided by the slider position at any point along that line would be 1K + (ratio * 9K)
You can use a MOUSE_MOVE event listener that you assign when the slider's MOUSE_DOWN event occurs to update the textfield as the slider is moved. You can remove the MOUSE_MOVE listener when the slider's MOUSE_UP event occurs.
So, in summary, you need to look into the startDrag and stopDrag methods, which will be inititiated using MOUSE_DOWN and MOUSE_UP events, respectively. The MOUSE_DOWN event will create a MOUSE_MOVE listener that you will use to have a function continually update the textfield value displayed, while the MOUSE_UP event will have that MOUSE_MOVE listener removed. The ratio of the x property of the slider to the total slideable distance will be used to determine the current value that the MOUSE_MOVE event handler assigns to the textfield display.

How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?

I'm seeking a little guidance -
How do I create/host interactive articles with embedded video for use in browsers?
The aim is to bring together video, design, images and writing in one place. A little like Born Presents, but very accessible and user friendly.
I'm happy using InDesign but want to create interactive articles / magazines that have embeded video files as required. I've been looking at .SWF files but I've come unstuck.
I want people to view the articles via a blog, ideally with them opening in a lightbox style viewer. It's not intended for tablet viewing and people should be able to view and interact with the files with little effort on their part.
I think I know how to create these files within InDesign, but I'm not so hot on web design and I'm not sure how to host these online. Does this start coming into the realms of Flash?
If anyone could point in the right direction I'd really appreciate it - Thank you in advance.

How do I create an interactive e-portfolio?

I'm a marketer/writer/journalist and need to create an interactive e-portfolio that I can burn to CD/DVD, infact have the flexibility to use in many different formats. I'd like it to have different sections for the different categories of work that I cover. So for instance, one element could be the ads that I've produced, another could be web copy I've created with say a screenshot linking through to the actual site, and another could be the articles I've written broken down by industry sector. Can anyone help? What software would provide the flexibility to do this?
