Creating message forms in Contribute

I would like to create a form on a newsletter page that
allows users to submit their own news.
The original page is written in .asp, and I'm not totally
comfortable in ASP yet, so I need a few pointers on how to set this
up. Would I have to use Dreamweaver, and if so, is it similar to
creating a form in php? (I know php fairly well). Any advice will
be appreciated. Thank you!

Contribute doesn't have the ability to create form elements.
What I am doing is to create the forms in Dreamweaver. I am
using a PHP form processor from MindPalette to handle the form
submission:
ProcessForm
This works pretty well. I have been toying with the idea of
writing a form creation plugin for Contribute, but I haven't gotten
to it yet.

  • How to create a form in Contribute

    i'm new to contribute, i would like to create a
    simple form to be filled out on our web page, and when they hit submit
    it would be sent to my e-mail.
    is any of this possible with contribute?  thank you

    Short answer: no. You'd have to use some other software (Dreamweaver for example) to setup the form and the form management script.
    Contribute is basically only good for one thing: editing existing pages within a Dreamweaver template environment.

    There are various was to return a filled-in PDF form but many require some detailed information about what product the person filling in the form will be using.
    As noted above the form can be filled out and faxed or snail mailed to you.
    Since Acrobat 3 the form could be submitted to a scripted web page and have the web server perform the tasks necessary to return the data to you.
    Since Acrobat 6 the creator could add special "Extended Form Rights" to the form so users with Reader version 5 or better could save the form and email the form.
    For mobile devices the app the user will be using will determine how or if the form can be returned.
    Do not allow users to use Apple's Preview application on the Macintosh. It will corrupt the form in many ways.

  • Error when create adobe form

    Hi,
    When i created adobe form, i found an error :
    Could not start Layout Designer (see long text)
    Message no. FPUIFB086
    Diagnosis
    The forms design tool for developing the form layout could not be started; either it is not installed or there are errors in the installation.
    Procedure
    Make sure that you have the forms design tool installed on your desktop (the tool is part of the SAPGUI installation).
    Also read SAP Note 801524.
    In my computer Adobe Life Cycle Designer 8.0 installed, why it happen?
    Please help me.
    Thank you.
    regards,
    Ferry

    Good to know  — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
    "Adobe" is the name of the company.
    "XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
    Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have  an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
    "Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
    The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
    Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
    Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
    So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
    What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
    Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both? 
    Be well....

  • How to create a form based on table@databaselink

    I have created a database link under OracleXe to access an Oracle 9i and it works very well. I can manually access the tables that I like to see. Want to experiment to create a form under HTMLDB based on a table from another database that I have created DataLink to. When I go choose Create Application in HMTLDB and then select Form from page type under table or view I tried to do this tablename@databaselink but it seems it can not find the table this way. Any idea how to do this?
    Thanks

    Mike,
    As I am trying to test and learn more about htmldb I was trying to get some data from oracle 9i to oracleXe, create some forms, reports and etc. At first I tried to use views and forgot to add the primary key, got the error so I posted the message on the board.
    Then I did try out the “long way” creating tables with package and procedure and some other fun stuff to create an application which by the way it worked very well. Then I created some users and changed some password. When I tried again to run the application I start getting “invalid login credentials”. After many attempts finally I went home, as I was driving home I thought about something and at home I tried it.
    I did some testing and noticed if I create a user under admin say userA+passwordA then login with userA+passwordA, create a table and then create an app base on that table and then run the app, with userA+passwordA I can login and app works perfectly. Then I logged out and as admin logged in, changed the userA password to passwordB. I logged out and logged in with userA+passwordB and then when I tried to run the app I get the “invalid login credentials”, when I change the passwordB to passwordA the app will works again. This is suppose to be this way!
    Again thanks to all

  • How do I use auto-form recognition to create PDF forms in Acrobat XI?

    I used to use Acrobat 9 to create PDF forms that would allow me to fill in text into the fields that were created.  Acrobat XI seems to have changed the way this function is performed.  Previously, I could run an auto form recognition wizard, do some minor tweaking, and be done.  Now, when I attempt to follow the process in Acrobat XI, I get the following message that pops up:  "No new form field annotations were detected.", and no fields get created.  I could do this manually, but the process of doing so is very clunky and cumbersome.  Once I create a new text field, I must then go back and resize it.  This would not be a problem if I was only working with a few fields on a single page, but I have a six page document with multiple fields to create (text fields, check box fields, etc.).  Perhaps I'm missing something, but there seems to be no simple way to do this anymore.  It's making me want to just install Acrobat 9, so that I will have back the feature that I used to have.  I'm using Acrobat XI on Mac, but I'm assuming the function should be the same in Windows.  I can use Preview on the Mac to simply type in the text that I need, but I was hoping to pass along the PDF so that others can use it as well.  This is not just a one time thing.

    There are no APIs for C# and external applications for this conversion.  There is however an API for Acrobat plugins to perform this operation.   So, if necessary, you could write a custom plugin (that calls the API you need) and expose that via some form of IPC to your C# app.

  • Creating fillable forms with Live Cycle that can be emailed, saved, printed, etc. by anyone!

    So I started using livecycle because the forms one can make are astounding, its a great program except for sending the forms out to be filled in especially to those only with reader. I've looked over a lot of past discussions and the answers seemed too complicated. Here is a workaround for not so computer savy folks like myself.
    First, create your form, use everything the software has to offer to make your form exactly like you want and yes you can use the "submit by email button" that's what it's for.
    Second, once the form is complete one seemingly complicated step to fix the "attach as pdf instead of xml" if your form keeps attaching as "xml" if it already attaches as "pdf" then skip the rest of the "second step"
         go to the top and click the "view" menu, then select "xml source"
         then go back to top and click the "edit" menu then select "find"
         type "xml" without the quotations and keep clicking "find next" until you see the "submit" line (eg. <submit format="xml")
         change the "xml" to "pdf"then go back to the "design view column" if you get a "parts of this or that cannot be whatever" message just click ok or ignore
    Third, assumming you used the "submit by email" button like you should be the find that button and click the center somewhere, too the right a "field" box comes up
         enter your own email address, you can enter an stock email subject to or leave it blank
         also, a bit further down it says "presence" then "visible" I like to change "visible" to "visible (screen only)" this way it does not show on the printed version. That is one of the things i like the most about this program, you can put text boxes, signature boxes, any kind of
              box and make it visible, visible only on print, only on screen, etc. you just have to play around. It's nice to put a large text box with instructions for how the person should fill out and what to do that helps them and doesn't show up on print.
    Ok, the above is a lot of words but if you print it out and follow step by step you'll see how easy it is and after a couple runs you won't have to look at your cheat sheet again.
    Fourth, So, it was easy to figure out how to make a form the frustrating part was sending it out to be filled in save, printed whatever then sent back to me (now you). the problem is, the form has to be distributed to be approved so to speak. If it is just for one person that is no big
         deal, just first click "file" "save as" give it a name it reverts into adobe pro and asks how you would like to distribute, follow the instructions you send it to whomever you like they fill it out and submit it back because your email address is linked to the "submit as
         email" button. But what if its just a form you want on the company share drive anyone can open fill out, save, send to you or send to someone else, that's where it's tricky.
    Fifth, Distributing to yourself so you can approve the form for world wide dissemination.
         Same procedure as above for the single recipient but instead of sending to someone else you send it back to yourself by entering your own email address again when it asks "how would you like to distribute your form--same as above"
         click "send now via email" enter your address they will return it to (but it's not they this time its really yourself)...follow the instructions, specifiy a generic folder that will collect data (you can delete later, you don't have to collect data unless you want)
         put in your email address as the recipient. change the stock email subject and message if you'd like, then click done, it will email you the form. close out the live cycle and adobe programs and go to your inbox (may take a min)
    Sixth, open your attachment.(no remember you submitted the form to yourself but think of yourself as someone else like a customer) when the form is open you can enter stock fields if you like or do nothing...click the submit by email button, follow the instructions and s
         send it back to yourself again (don't get confused...it's really you as the customer sending back to yourself as the owner of the form) if you are a criminal think of it as like "laundering money through a bank" you are laundering the form through your own email system
         close out the form and go to your inbox again an open the returned form. now when you open it there is something new. there is a box that says "this file is a completed form (even though you didn't enter any data---it's a laundered form now) and leave it on the
         "add to existing data set" which is the one you created earlier in the generic folder....click "ok", now the form changes once again, there is a new look to the top, don't worry about it just go to the top right of the form and click on "options" then "save file as" give it
         a name again and remember where you saved it to. then close adobe and say yes when it asks you if "you want to save changes to your data set"....say yes!!
    7th, forget the data set, no longer is important...find the form you saved and open it. go to the top and click the "advanced" button then "enable user rights in adobe reader" then click "save now" this is the final form so name it appropriately and place it where you want
         people to find it, they can now open, fill out, print, save as, email, whatever. The only downside is if they use the submit by email it automatically defaults to your email but when their email client opens they can delete your address and put someone else if they want.
    thats it...lots of words but it really is easy after you do it a couple of time. the final downside, if the final form works but you decide to change anything on it with LiveCycle, you have to go back through all the steps or it will tell whoever opens it in reader that the original
         has change and they cannot do anything with it, but it's ok, make your changes or improvement, by now you are an expert at laundering live cycle forms, take you 5 min, no worries!
    Happy Laundering!!

  • An error occurred creating the form (task 2346, form 0). (ALC-WKS-007-040) error

    Hi all,
    I am a newbie to adobe livecycle process. I am trying to prepopulate the data like the users info when the form is originated in the workspace.
    I did use the samples example for form render service but added to variables called first and lastname as i want these fields to be populated.I am also using an xmlvariable which stores the xml data-(first name and last name) from the form (i got the xml data from the jDBC service usingquery multiple rows by quering edcpricnipal entity). I have followed the steps from http://www.roland-lopez.com/blog/index.cfm?event=showEntry&entryId=ECB034DA-3048-5304-BA9 BB7B0DEDC725A.
    Now I am trying to use the sevice in my application. hennce I created a input variable called app_info of type xfa form and in advanced settings I called the render service which is created before. I am using a PDF file in resources.
    When I try to open the form in workspace I get the error

  • Error when trying to create 2 Forms on same page on 2 tables with ID as PK

    Hi all,
    here's the error message I get: "ORA-20001: Unable to create query and update page. ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-20001: Error page=1 item="P1_ID" id="509501514227854745" ORA-20001: Error page=1 item="P1_ID" id="509501514227854745" has same name as existing application-level item.

    What am I trying to do:
    I try to create 2 forms on the same page, each one based on tables that have PK column named "ID".
    From what I understand, HTML DB is trying to create for both forms the same "P1_ID" (P[no_page]_[column_name], right ?) hidden item in order to keep the value of the pk column...
    I think this is not right...what do you think ?
    Thanks,
    Andrei

    You cannot use multiple automated row fetch or automated DML processes on the same page where any table column names are in common between them.

  • Troubles creating a form with Acrobat

    I have created a form with Acrobat 9 Pro. However, when it is brought up with Acrobat Reader, the following message appears:
    Sending data files by email: Please note, this form contains an email submit button. Clicking this button will email a data file... However, the form itself will not be sent. Remember you cannot save a complete file of this form with Adobe Reader 9.
    When the submit button is clicked, the following message is posted on a popup window.
    Operation not permitted.
    Here's the link to a form I am trying to get to work. It works fine if I use the Pro version, but the Reader version doesn't want to allow the form to be sent. http://www.drugfreedekalbcounty.info/pdf/interventionscholarshipform.pdf
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    It may have been improved with AA9, but at least up through AA8, Acrobat required the use of MAPI on the machine to deal with e-mail. If that has changed, then the other recommendation to use extended rights might meet your need. There is a 500 use limitation for the extended rights (more requires negotiation with Adobe). This may be a limitation that changed with AA9 Pro Extended.
    The rights are not needed if the data file is sent and not the whole PDF. There is no need for the whole PDF since the data file can be opened in the original form document - giving the same result. Your observation that it works in AA9 for e-mail is making the assumption that everyone uses AA9. That is a dangerous assumption if you are developing a general use form. You should assume folks have back to AA7, or even AA5 (like I have on this machine). There are still a few that check in here on occasions with AA4. I have not seen an AA3 question for several years. Thus backward compatibility may be an issue, depending on your client base.
    The cleanest way to work with forms is to submit to a web script. Then there is no question about the end result. The use of web scripts is even recommended for online html forms for much the same reasons. I was giving a heads up so that you have considered possible users that do not have the newest and best, assuming that the latter resolves the e-mail issue.

  • Creating a form in Application gives WWV-13003.

    Hi,
    After renaming a form say FormA to FormB in Application , I am not able to create a new form with the same name that is FormA . I have deleted the form from
    wwv_modules$ saying " delete from wwv_modules$ where name like 'formname'; " . After this when I try to create the form
    as FormA , it says : Invalid component name , name already exists in the Schema and WWV-13003
    Where do I go and delete this form so as to create a new form with the same name.
    I am on Portal 3.0.9.8.2 and Database 8.1.7.1.5.
    Thanks .
    Neeti.

    Hi,
    How did you rename it ??
    Renaming thru the UI shouldn't be a problem.
    As per your description ,looks like U are seeing the error even after using the rename option,try and see if the FORM by that name exists in the schema on which the application is based.Can give a search in the database explorer ..Incase it does as per the message,just drop the same..
    Thanks,

  • Creating a Form in Acrobat Professional 8

    I am attempting to create a fully-interactive PDF form, using an MS Word Document which I created using Word 2007 on my system, which is Windows Vista Home Premium.  I want the colleagues to whom I send this form to be able to complete it on line, and return it to me by e-mail.   I have tried to do this in 2 ways:
    I have opened the MS Word document, clicked on Acrobat, Create PDF, and in the window entitled Save Adobe PDF file as:  I selected Fully Functional PDF and indicated that the resulting file be saved on my Desktop.  It appears that the process does complete, but I can find the resulting file NOWHERE on my system.  I've searched in every way possible, and find only a shortcut to the new file, but not the file itself.  I obtain an error message when I click on this shortcut!
    I have also opened my Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional software, and selected Create PDF, from file.  I selected the correct file, and the conversion process began.  After 10% of the conversion was complete, the following message appeared:  "PDF Conversion process failed; please correct the error and retry".  However, I have no idea what the "error" is, so I cannot comply!
    The form I am working with is NOT a template, but one I have created.  My needs are not met by any of the available templates available within the program.  I am at a loss for a solution, and hope that someone on this forum can help me.

    please delete me from your mailing list.  tks.

  • How to create fillable forms for users of reader IX or X in acrobat pro XI?

    I created fillable forms in Acrobat Pro XI. How can i make them fillable also for users with Reader IX or X? As Adobe Reader für Vista or Linux is only available in version IX or X, it is not possible for these users to fill in the forms?

    Open PDF Form in Acrobat XI then choose File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (inclues form fill-in & save)...
    Then, save the form with new name and it's gonna work.

  • Creating Quote form that goes to a shopping cart

    I'm hoping someone can help me work through this question; I have a customer who would like a type of quote form on their site. Their customer would be able to get a quote on a product that has multiple parts which they would select the parts from drop-down menus on a form, then they submit the form to a holding cart type place, then they might want another quote on another item and then they could submit that quote to the holding cart, etc. There might be many objects or quotes that they might want quotes on, THEN they can submit ALL of the product quotes to my customer at the same time.  So it's kind of a shopping cart type idea (purchase all items at once) but no payments involved, no pricing, just wanting to be able to submit several quotes all at once, not one at a time. This needs to start out with quite a detailed form, I can do that, but it's the submitting many forms in a batch format that I'm not quite sure where or how to do.
    Do I start with a shopping cart or is there some other format to use?
    Any ideas?
    Annette

    Does it matter that anyone could enter the right name in the form to return the customer data? If so you need to use a password.
    1. Create a form through which the customer can register their details with a user name and password.
    2. On the server side hash the password with something like SHA256 (plenty of open source implementations about or you can create your own).
    3. Store the customer details together with a userid and hashed password in the server database
    4. Create a form through which the customer can request their details, and asks them for their userid and password.
    6. On the server side, rehash the password from the form and request a row from the customer database where the userid and hashed password match an entry
    7. Return the customer data if row retrieved from database else return a message saying on data matching those details etc.
