Creating Forms in CS3

Okay, so I have created a form with DW. I have both a submit
button and a reset button. I have validated the form and everything
seems to work okay. There is only one small problem -- when the
user submits the information, the form data seems to get lost in
cyberspace. How can I make it so when the user clicks the submit
button the form data gets sent to my email address?

> I have both a submit button and a reset button
Have you *ever* used a RESET button? I stopped putting them
on my forms a
long time ago!
There are only two ways to process form data -
1. Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
2. Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the
form's data, b)
process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a database, c)
formulate and
send an email to one or more email recipients, and d)
redirect the visitor
to some ending page
Method 1 is quite simple, and is also the least reliable. It
depends both
on your visitor having an email client already installed on
their computer -
this eliminates public computers, or home users without email
clients
installed (more and more it seems) - and on the installed
email client
responding to
the mailto call. It is not possible to use this method *and*
send the
visitor to a
thank you page as well.
Method 2a is the preferred method, since it eliminates the
problems of
method
1, but it means that you have to grapple with
server-scripting somehow (ASP,
CF, PHP, perl, etc.).
Method 2b would be to use some third-party form processing,
like
http://www.bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/.
You would have to decide which of these methods is best for
your needs,
but if it's Method 2a, then start by asking your host what
they provide for
form
processing. If it's 2b, then read their FAQ/instructions
carefully.

Create form using cs3

I have been searching through google and here to find a form
tutorial using the latest flash app-CS3, targeted to the latest
flash player.
I already have the PHP code, now I just need to create the
form. Is there a good tutorial out there?
Thanks for any help with this.
Rob

LOL. I'm working on a tutorial for my blog for this as we
speak adamon. If I hadn't had a wedding to attend on Saturday, I
would have finished it and I could send you a finished link. Send
me an e-mail - [email protected] and I'll send you the tutorial
files. If you need further help after that, we can correspond via

I haven't seen the ora-03116 problem.
What version of Portal are you running? Are the databases at the same version? Does your table have longs or anything strange in it?
Can you query the table via the synonyms and link in sqlplus as the application schema? This is a good test because it eliminates Portal.
You should try setting up synonyms etc for the emp table. If you still get the problem then Oracle may be able to replicate it. If not, then there's sth funny about your table maybe.
I agree with Vishnu about creating everything in sqlplus. I create all my links and synonyms in sqlplus. They are all public. I have 2 synonyms: one takes you over the link the other takes you to the right schema. It's flexible and it works.
data database: D grants to P (local schema) on table T
public syn T = D.T (sys) (get the right schema)
portal dbase : public db link to data database connecting as P
public syn T = T@dblink (sys) (over the link)
P is a schema created in both databases.
Test is: P in portal dbase can "select * from T" and gets the right data.
I never, ever refer to a schema when defining a form. ie. never P.T or D.T or whatever. I always refer simply to a synonym. For the above my form would be defined simply on the table T.
Hope this helps

How to override the create method invoked by a create form?

Hello everyone, I'm using ADF Faces and have the next question:
How can I override the create method which is invoked by a create form to preset an attribute in the new row (the preset value is not fixed, I have to send it to the method as a parameter as it is obtained using an EL expression)?
In the ADF guide I read how to override a declarative method (Section 17.5.1 How to override a declarative method), but this explains how to do it with a method that is called by a button. I don't know how to do the same with a method which is called automatically when the page is loaded.
I also tried overriding the view object's createRow() method to receive a parameter with the preset values but it didn't work, I believe that was because the declarative create method is not the same as the view object's createRow. This caused the form to display another row from the viewobject and not the newly created one (I also set the new row into STATUS_INITIALIZED after setting the attribute).
Well, I hope my problem is clear enough for somebody to help me.
Thank you!

Hello,
I'm not sure you can do it with standard generated Create Form.
In your view object you'll need to create your own create method with parameters, publish it to client interface and invoke instead of standard generated create action in page definition.

Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

Is there a way to create forms where certain fields would become required only if there was a certain choice made in a dropdown box in another field?

Yes but you will have to create some custom JavaScript to do this.
Also you should be aware that the "Required" property is only processed when the form is submitted to a scripted web page or "mailto:" process.

Select the fields with the mouse, right-click one of them, go to Properties

Getting error while creating form and report on webservice: ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-02263: need to specify the datatype for this column.

i am using the following description to create a web service reference:
web reference :REST
Name :Yahoo Map
URL :http://local.yahooapis.com/MapsService/V1/mapImage
HTTP Method: GET
Basic Authentication: No
Add Parameter:
Name       Type

location    String
Output Format: XML
XPath to Output Parameters : /Result
Output Parameter:
Name       Path       Type
Url          /text()      String
Then i tried to create form and report on webservice:
Web Service Reference Type: Yahoo Map
Operation: doREST
All the fields i keep as default
I tick the checkbox (url)in report Parameter
After clicking next whereever required i click create button
I get the following error
ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-02263: need to specify the datatype for this column.
Please someone help to solve this as i need to fix it urgently.

i exported the application from apex.oracle.com and imported it to our environment
import went fine, but when I ran the IR page I got
ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
evidently the problem is a lack of public execute on DBMS_LOB, which is used in the generated IR source.
while waiting for the DBA to grant privs on DBMS_LOB, changing the dbms_lob.getlength call to length() fixes the IR.
however, i am not getting the download link on the associated form page... changed templates, that's not the issue -- we'll see if that's a dbms_lob issue as well

Strange error while creating form/report pages [ORA-20001]

While creating two new pages with a form and report on it, I've got a strange error. I tried to create the pages several times, but I always got the same error:

Looks like there is a 127-column limit on the number of report columns supported when using that wizard. Do you have more than that?

I have been creating forms in InDesign and pulling into Acrobat XI Pro to do form fields. My client would like to fill in the PDF form using Reader, save under a different name locally on their device, and redistribute. The problem I have is that, sometimes, they want to redistribute the form as Read Only. I know how to flatten the form on a mobile device, but uncertain how they can do that with a PC or Mac using Adobe Reader. I looked at FormsCentral thinking there might be a solution going that route, but don't believe there is. Any advice?

FormsCentral won't help with flattening a form. You could set up the form in Acrobat so that the fields are set to read-only, using JavaScript. Not quite the same as flattening but it's the best Reader can do.
Note that when Reader is used to e-sign a document, it gets flattened, but this won't be possible if you need to Reader-enable the form and under certain other conditions.

Import error when importing .psd file created in Photoshop CS3

I have a file that was created in Photoshop CS3. I am trying to import this file into Catalyst CS5, but I keep getting an input error. I created a file in Photoshop CS5 and I was able to import this .psd file successfully into catalyst. So I guess my question is this; Does Catalyst support .psd files created in Photoshop CS5 only? If this is the case, how can I convert the CS3 .psd to a CS5 .psd

I am now building my files using photoshop CS5. A few challenges I have experienced while trying to import into Catalyst:
- If I do a straight import into Catalyst, I loose all my colors in Catalyst. That is, catalyst imports all my vectors without any of the colors I had in Photoshop. My understanding is that Catalyst has libraries to support Photoshop files, so your import from Photoshop should not look any different in Catalyst.
Work Around: I have had to rasterize / merged all my image layers for the different components I have built in Photoshop CS5. Then when I start the import process I click the Advanced button on the catalyst import dialog. From the advanced dialog, I have to flatten (to bitmap) all the images I intend to import.
This process takes about two hours because I have a lot of components on the page.
Is there something I'm not doing right here? I'm not seeing the value add to Catalyst, if it's taking me this long to just import .psd files

User should only work on created Form

Hi all!
Here is my problem.
A user is working in B1. For example:With a double_klick on a Textfield and a user created Form will be shown.
No the User should only work with this Form until its closed! There should be no possibility to open an other form or so.
Like if you get a MessageBox, there is no other "normal" way to work on until you close this Messagebox.
May it is possible to let the Form act like such a Messagebox.
Thanks for replies..
Matthias

The Sample you speak of show the hack/workaround (Not true modal functionality).
From the sample:
    Private Sub SBO_Application_ItemEvent(ByVal FormUID As String, ByRef pVal As SAPbouiCOM.ItemEvent, ByRef BubbleEvent As Boolean) Handles SBO_Application.ItemEvent
        ' Don't let the user to move to other forms
        Dim EventEnum As SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes
        EventEnum = pVal.EventType
        If bModal And FormUID <> "Modal" Then
            oForm.Select() ' Select the modal form
            BubbleEvent = False
        End If
        ' If the modal from is closed...
        If FormUID = "Modal" And (EventEnum = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_CLOSE) And bModal Then
            bModal = False
        End If
    End Sub
In the sample the bModal bool set to true when opening the form block all events by selecting the modal form on each event and setting bubbleevent to false.. the EventEnum = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_CLOSE set the bModal to false so events can continue
Biggest problem with this is if you use a eventfilter (which you should do)... here you need to remove the event filter along with setting the BModal (not in the sample), and reapply it after form close.

Creating Forms in Acrobat 9

Is there any way to make the usual toolbars available when in the new form editing view?
I find the Hand Tool and the Marquee Zoom indispensable when creating forms, but it appears I only have access to a very limited array of tools when working on a form (i.e., neither of these).
Also, can I disable the ruler in form editing view? It just eats up unnecessary space.

I know how to make all of the usual tools available *outside* form editing mode, what I want is to have those tools available when I'm creating fields, etc. I don't want to have to jump back and forth between modes.
I see that the button tool has been duplicated in the Advanced Editing toolbar, why haven't the others been made available, even as custom buttons?
So I guess there's no way to do this. It seems like the only "advantage" to form editing mode is a limited array of tools.
Edit: Also, I know *how* to turn the ruler off in form mode, what I want is the ruler off by default in form editing mode. Since you suggest I should jump back and forth to use the usual tools when working on forms, I'd at least like to have the ruler in form editing mode off by default, but it currently has to be turned off every time form editing mode is entered.
(Sorry if I'm coming off a bit abrupt, this change is really going to interfere with my workflow.)

Hello. I have adobe forms and received the alert that it will be ending in July. Then I received an email about Adobe Acrobat XI Pro which can create forms. I signed up for the free trial and when I began to make a new form it brings me back to Adobe Forms. My question is, when Adobe Forms ends on July 28th will Adobe Acrobat XI Pro be able to create forms or will it now? and if not, then why is adobe advertising for it still?

What you're calling "Adobe Forms" is really Adobe FormsCentral. The FormsCentral service is indeed going away soon, but you can always create PDF forms (AcroForms) with Acrobat. Acrobat also comes with a desktop version of the FormsCentral desiger, which can be used to create simple PDF forms that can be used apart from the FormsCentral service. So you'll no longer be able to create and host web forms with the FormsCentral service or use PDF forms with the FormsCentral service. You will be able to create standalone PDF forms with Acrobat and simple PDF forms with the FormsCentral desktop app.
