Email pdf form to field value and actual email address

Question

I have a couple of issues I'm trying to solve and am not sure how to proceed. I need the Submit button to pick up a value from a field that the user has filled in and I need to supply an email address.
I need to provide the text for the subject line of the email plus add a value from a field that the user fills in.
I got those two elements to work based  on scripts I got from the Forum.
But I also need the top half (or first page) of the form to be sent as a pdf and the second half (or second page) to still be an interactive form and a submit button that works similarly to the first Submit button.
How can I accomplish this? Apparently, I'm still not able to attach a copy of the form.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Margaret,
I am guessing that the forum has put in the spaces in your script(?)
Here is a screenshot of Paul's form:
You will see that Paul is passing "form1" through to the function. This is the name of the root node, so when clicked it will lock everything.
If this form had multiple pages and just just wanted to lock the first page "purchaseOrder", then the script would look like this:
myScriptObject.LockAllFields(purchaseOrder);
A couple of things to watch out for:
The script object "myScriptObject" is under the root node in the hierarchy;
That the script object name in your event matches the name in the hierarchy;
That the function name in the script matches that in the script object;
The script object name and function name should be different and also do not use reserved words like "node";
The name you are passing through to the function should match the name of a container in the hierarchy
A couple of things you can try would include setting up a trial button and having the script in the click event, just to get it working.
Also when previewing the form, press Control + J to open the javascript console. Then when you click the button, it will return any problem that is making the script fall over. This then makes it easier to find a solution.
Hope that helps,
Niall
PS Just spotted that the script object is not under the root node. This isn't an issue here because there is only one page and the button calling the script object in under the same node. As far as I know if you have multiple pages that call the script object, then it is better to have the script object under the root node, where it is available from all pages.
