Dynamic Table Row Removal

I'm using LiveCycle Form Designer 8 and Acrobat Reader 7.09
I've created a simple dynamic table that has an ADD ROW button that uses _Row1.addInstance(1); to add a new row and that works great. I then added the Delete Row button in a SubForm to the first cell of the row with the JavaScript _Row1.removeInstance(this.parent.index).
The problem is that the Delete Row button always deletes the first row instead of the row that the button is in. So that indicates that this.parent.index = 0. If I force the value it does remove that specific line but I want the removeInstance to remove the line that has been selected.
How do I get the index to reflect the value of the row that the removeInstance button is in? I must be missing something very basic.

I'm having the same problem. I tried removeinstance(this.index) but that seems to resolve to index 0 no matter how many instances there are.
Cheers,
Al

How to identify the last instance of a dynamic table row

Hi all,
I am trying to figure out how to create an action for my form in Livecycle Designer ES2 that will affect the most recent instance of a dynamic table row. I have a table with a repeatable row where the user will enter information about a purchased part and I have buttons that allow the user to add and remove rows. I need to create an additional add row button that will add a new instance of the repeatable table row (this is not an issue) and will disable and change the background color of the first cell in the added row. The problem I am having is how to have an action that affects the last instance of a row.
If anyone knows how to do this in Javascript I would appreciate some advice/help.

Hi,
I think this is beyond what an action will provide. You will a have to write some JavaScript directly. When you call the addInstance method it returns the new row, so you can do something like;
var row = Table1._Row1.addInstance();
row.TextField1.border.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
row.TextField1.access = "protected";
To find the last row and do the same thing you can do something like;
var row = Table1.resolveNode("Row1[" + (Table1._Row1.count - 1) + "]");
row.TextField1.border.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
row.TextField1.access = "protected";

Dynamic Table row breaks only on the first page (not on second)

Hello,
I biuld a dynamic table with Livecycle.
If the text in the last field is to long, the table grows automatically.
If the end of the first page is reached, the row breaks over from the first to the second page(= 1st break)
This works correctly.
But if the text is longer, and the field have to break from the second to the third page, the field does not break!!
Please see the attached file.
The settings should be correct, because the break ( from 1st to the 2nd page) works.
But why, is the "dynamic behaviour " limited to only ONE page ?
Can you help me please ?
Thanks....

Danke für die korrigierte Datei.
Jep, bei deiner Datei funktionierts.
Ich habe alle Einstellungen genauso angeklickt wie Du, aber trotzdem funktionierts nicht in meiner Tabelle.
Kannst du Dich erinnern, was genau Du geändert hast ?
Ich lade eine Datei hoch, in der ich eine neue Tabelle in die bereits existierende Tabelle ( von Dir korrigiert und funktionierend) einfgefügt habe.
In dieser zweiten Tabelle habe ich die gleichen Einstellungen wie in deiner Tabelle. Meine Tabelle funktioniert aber nicht.
Wo ist mein Fehler ?
Danke für deine Hilfe.
Ich hatte es aber als dynamisches Formular gespeichert. Die Felder verändern sich ja, nur nicht mit dem richtigen Umbruch.
https://acrobat.com/#d=kBUbNEdmNNLTXmKuCUo84w
Ist es womöglich ein Versionsproblem ?
Teillösung:
Mit 1 Spalte anstelle von 2 Spalten funktionierts auch bei mir.
Mit 2 Spalten nicht.
Weiss jemend Rat ?
ENGLISH
thanks for the correction of the file.
It works fine in your doc.
I copied all settings from your pdf-file, but still it doesn`t work in my doc.
Do you remember, what you changed ?
I will upload a flie, where I paste a new table in the existing one. Can you tell me where the failure is ?
Thanks for your help.
I saved the origin file as a dynamic form. The fields were growing automatically (when the text is long). The problem was the overflow.
https://acrobat.com/#d=kBUbNEdmNNLTXmKuCUo84w
Is it possibly a bug within my LCD Version ?
Greetings

UPDATE
It works fine, when I delete 1 column.
With 2 columns -> overflow problem
With 1 column -> no problem..
Does anybody knwo why ?

Dynamic table rows created based on input value

I've been searching the forum for either a tutorial or input
on how to create a table where the number of rows are based on a
user input value. I can't seem to find anything on this.
Here's what I'm trying to do. I have site where people are
charged based on the number of items they register. So if they want
to register 2 items. They would input the number 2 for quanity and
I would display a dynamic table with 2 rows. The user will input
their data for the 2 items and I insert this into an
itemsRegistered table. If they entered 4 I would give them 4 rows
for input. I am using dreamweaver with PHP and MySql database. Can
anyone point me in the right direction. Any help would be
appreciated!

Not exactly. The items are all the same but have a different
registration number (like a serial number). So if the user wants to
register 2 items. They would input the number 2 on the form. Then 2
rows would appear on the table, one for each registration number.
When they finish entering the data it would be inserted into the
database as 2 records.
So for example if item 1 has registration number 10000 and
item 2 has registration number 11000. The registration numbers are
unique. The table would look like this :
CustomerID (links to customer table)
RegistrationID (Unique in this table)
ItemColor
ItemShape
I don't know if I've explained this well but thanks for even
attempting to answer this! I really appreciate it!

Value of cell is not displayed while trying to generate dynamic table rows

I am creating dynamic table with CoreTable, CoreColumn. I want to place CoreOutputText in the cells of the column. The header of the column is rendered properly, but not the cell value. Below is the code snippet,
          dynamicTable = new CoreTable();
          CoreColumn dynamicCol1 = new CoreColumn();
          dynamicCol1.setHeaderText("First");
          dynamicCol1.setParent(dynamicTable);
          dynamicTable.getChildren().add(dynamicCol1);
          CoreOutputText dynamicCell1 = new CoreOutputText();
          dynamicCell1.setValue("Hello");
          dynamicCell1.setParent(dynamicCol1);
          dynamicCol1.getChildren().add(dynamicCell1);
I want "Hello" to be printed on the cell (which is not happening now). Any idea why is not getting displayed?

Dynamic Tables/Rows

A form contains a table with 3 rows, during the workflow of the form a lot of instances of the table was added via addInstance(). But now for a special case it's necessary to add a instance from the table with only row1 and row3 (without affecting the other instances). Is this possible? And how?
Anybody experiences or suggestions?
Thanx, Gerhard

Hi,
I watched the following seminar: https://admin.adobe.acrobat.com/_a200985228/p87746471/ and copied the following lines into my calculate event of a cell called "travelh_sum":
Code:
var flds = this.resolveNodes("$form..Travelinghrs[*].Amount");
var sum = 0;
for (var i=0;i<flds.length;i++)
if (isNaN(flds.item(i).rawValue))
sum+=flds.item(i).rawValue;
sum;
I got a big table with many columns. What I want to do, is calculate the amount of all travelling hours entered in the dynamically added cells "Travelinghrs". As far as I understand the code, it should work. I changed the cells to "numeric field". When I change to the pdf-preview, there is a "0" in the travelh_sum field but its not calculated. Maybe I can send you my pdf file...I dont want to upload it here for public access..
Thanks a lot

Resetting Dynamic tables

Hi,
I have a form which is set to flowed and has multiple dynamic tables, rows can be added as required by the user. I need a reset button which not only clears all the data, but also resets all the tables (removes any rows that have been added). Is this possible? Any help would be appreciated.

Can i create dynamic tables in Java? Can youprovide
a link or some hints? Google got me with nothing
interesting.
[url=http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/
components/table.html]Have a look at this.Hello, uig.
As some replies here were deleted due to the action of an abusive user, I am summing up the info in this post, in case you come back for reference.
In one of your posts you stated you wanted in fact an array that could be dinamically growth or shriked. The best solution to that is to use the collections api, you may consider using a class that implements the List[url] interface, consider looking at the others interfaces in the api too.

Drop down in dynamic table in the Adobe Interactive Form (Web dynpro ABAP)

Hi All,
I have scenario use drop down in dynamic table in the adobe interactive form (Using the button the dynamic table row will be increasing and decreasing).
Assume I Add five rows dynamically in the dynamic table. The Last column contains Drop down.
I have button in the adobe form.
Button Name = u201CSAVEu201D
Button type    = SAP Submit button (Native type u2013 I am Using ZCI).
While clicking save button, I need to store the dynamic table datau2019s to back end system. I can able to store the data to back end system. After form data getting saved those particular values need to display in the adobe form.
Here I am facing a problem.
I cannot able to view as a default value in the drop down, which I have selected some values after save operation I am not getting any values in the drop down as a default.
Example:
The dynamic table contains 5 rows (Each and every row Drop down contains one to ten values).
1)     I have selected second value in the Drop down (ROW1)
2)     I have selected fourth value in the Drop down (ROW2)
3)     I have selected fifth value in the Drop down (ROW3)
4)     I have selected seventh value in the Drop down (ROW4)
5)     I have selected third value in the Drop down (ROW5)
I press the save button that particular Drop down value gets saved in back end system and that particular values want display in the Drop down as a default value.
How to resolve this problem.

Hide multiple rows in a dynamic table based on the row value.

Hi,
I need to hide multiple rows in a dynamic table based on the specific value of that row.
I cant find the right expression to do that.
please help

Go to the Row Properties, and in the Visibility tab, you have "Show or hide based on an expression". You can use this to write an expression that resolves to true if the row should be hidden, false otherwise.
Additionally, in the Matrix properties you should take a look at the filters section, perhaps you can achieve what you wish to achieve through there by removing the unnecessary rows instead of just hiding them.
It's only so much I can help you with the limited information. If you require further help, please provide us with more information such as what data are you displaying, what's the criteria to hiding rows, etc...

All i want is that when users click on SUBMIT button values of point column in s_lessons(database table) be updated by new entries from user.
i did my best and result with that code is :
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' lid=888, sid=860935422, term=902' at line 1
I would appreciate any idea.

Resize table row height dynamically

Hi All,
I have a requirement to display four item texts in one of the table column. I had created a subform with four texts in that column. I am getting the data as required, but by default the table row size has increased because of four texts in the column. At times, i have only data in two texts, still getting the default size of the row(0.41in height), how can i adust the height based on the data. How can i adust the row of the table dynamically.
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
I did similar to this, where as my table is entirly designed in subforms, so there is no auto setting of the columns of a row.
I had the below code, which finds the maximum height of a coulmn element and sets its height to all of the coulms of a row instance.
I call this function on layout ready event of the row, as below
ItemGenerator.setHeight(this);
function setHeight(rowData){
     if(rowData.presence == "visible"){
//             xfa.host.messageBox("height set start in layout ready");

Dynamic tables collide when adding rows

Hi,
I created two dynamic tables with buttons to add/remove/move rows. When I add rows, the table collides with the other one and overlays it. How can I manage that the other table (or content) of the PDF is moved automatically further down to avoid a collision?
Thanks

Hi,
first of all thanks for answering that quickly!
@ Gopal
Thank you. When I wrap the whole page with a subform and set it to flowed, all elements are in a chaos (but the table is flowed to the next page when reaching the end of it).Putting a subform between the two tables works!
Space between two tables:
subform (flowed)
--> subform (flowed)
>table
--> subform (position) = spacer
--> subform (flowed)
>table
@ amita
unfortunately it is not possible to check that option for allowing page breaks
Thanks to both of you!

Sum of Values from previous rows in a dynamic table

Hello,
I have a dynamic table has multiple rows (added dynamically via a button). One column in the table is a Quantity column. Another is a Total column. We do not want to keep a running total, but only wish to display a total when the rest of the cells in that row are emty and the previous row(s) has/have values in the Quantity column. The Total is the sum on the Quatnities up to a blank row. Below is a sample. How do I get teh value of the Quantities in the previous rows?
Quantity
Total
5
8
12
25
7
27
34
22
22
Another option might be to put the Total in the last row with data as opposed to the row below the data.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Karl

Dynamic table - some fields of different rows in one column

Hey guys,
i have the following problem:
i habe a itab with some data like:
name | id | date | number
pete | 1 | 27.07 |    2
pete | 1 | 28.07 |    2
pete | 1 | 30.07 |    2
ann   | 1 | 28.07 |    3
ann   | 2 | 30.07 |    2
the user can define a period of time, e.g. 28-29.07
so my dynamic table will consist of the "hard" columns name and id and the dynamic added columns for every day:
name | id | 28.07 | 29.07
that's what i already have!
so my problem is, that i have to read the data from the itab into the new dynamic table (field-symbol) like:
name | id | 28.07 | 29.07
pete   | 1 |    2     |    2
ann    | 1 |    3     |    -
i hope you can understand what i want! please give me code sample or a example report!
many thanks in adance!
best regards,
ludwig

hey Asik, you have understand what i want!
here is my table:
http://img181.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wh20080916113004ym8.png
after the loop, the 4 rows should be in my field-symbol only one row (no sum)!
but after the loop, there are to many rows! only one row is needed!
Look at the screenshot:
http://img185.imageshack.us/my.php?image=wh20080916113547wl0.png
So the second row at column "tag20080801" should be initial and with the next loop, the next day "tag20080730" should be filled with the number!
LOOP AT LT_OUT INTO LS_OUT.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'RESSOURCEN' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = 'Ressource'.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'NAME' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-name.
ASSIGN COMPONENT 'PROJEKT' OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-PROJECTID.
CONCATENATE 'DATE' LS_OUT-DATE INTO LF_DATE_COL.
ASSIGN COMPONENT LF_DATE_COL OF STRUCTURE <FS_LINE> TO <fs_field>.
<fs_field> = LS_OUT-COUNT.
COLLECT <FS_LINE> INTO <FS_TABLE>.
ENDLOOP.
the right output data should look like this:
