Entering text only in a text field

does anybody know how to:
display an error message if the user trys to enter anything other than text in a text field, some sort of validation.
thanks

java.lang.Character has many methods for testing if a character is of a particular class (e.g. digit, alpha, alphanumeric etc..)

How can i use text only instead of text plus the folder icon in the bookmarks toolbar; older firefox allowed this.

I prefer using text only instead of text plus a folder icon in the bookmarks toolbar because it used less space and I can display more bookmark folders in that toolbar. Is that possible in Firefox 4.0? It was possible in the earlier versions of Firefox. If it is possible in Firefox 4.0 how do I do that? Thank you.

First install the "Stylish:" extension then you have thousands of styles available to choose from, most consist of only a few lines, and you can modify them to suit yourself.

PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

Hello,
I created some pdf forms to distribute to the company clients. But we are having some people complaining about the text visibility. When they have work in team, the pdf that they receive from a third person often appears unfill or without text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this because our company products are base on this forms.
If there is any addition information that I should add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.
In the company, we all have mac and the forms where created innitially in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we have now Adobe acropabt XI pro.
The users have both Mac and Windows systems.
Thank you,

This is usually caused by the form being filled-in and saved by a Mac user who is using the Preview application to view the PDF. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
It is a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with the forms.

I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field(prefix only) while saving files.

OS: WinXP sp3
FF: 3.6.3
I have difficulty pasting text into the file name field (prefix only) while saving files. example: File name is Pic123.jpg and I want to rename it ABC123.jpg and I have ABC loaded into the WinXPsp3 clipboard. When I highlight\right-click\delete "Pic" then attempt to paste the ABC, I get either no reaction, or upon multiple paste attempts, the ABC is appended to the end of the file, after the extension, as "Pic123.jpgABC". If I delete this unwanted suffix, or repeat the process several times, eventually I can delete the unwanted portion of the prefix and paste the desired text. Sometimes it works fine first try, but mostly it takes several tries. I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 but the problem existed in whatever previous version I had too. This issue only occurs when using the delete/paste; I can always manually change the name by typing. Thank you for your help.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

A possible cause is that the server sends a wrong response header.

I can't enter any value in the Text field, after loading flash files

Hi to all,

While running the application, I can't enter any value in the Text field, after minimize and maximize the application I can enter the values.
This problem happens after change the jre version from 1.6 to 1.7.
I'm getting the following exception while running the application.
org.jdesktop.jdic.init.JdicInitException: java.io.IOException: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

How to retrieve only the text from a multiline Varchar2 field?

Dear Friends,
I have a text in a varchar2 field having text only in line2.
I want to retrieve the text only skipping the blank line.
The syntax REPLACE(FIELD_NAME,CHR(10),'') is not working.
Please help me.
Thanking you,
With Regards
Franklin

there must be other characters in your text field that are not chr(10) (line feeds etc).
use a regular expression to replace all the non-printable characters:
select regexp_replace(field_name,'[^[:print:]]') from table

Is it possible to show/hide a result text field only if another Text field is visible and has content?

Hi
Please could someone tell me if it is possible to make a text field visible only if another text field is visible and has content?
I have this which works for the content part, but sometimes the field is hidden, so the script must not apply.
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
event.target.display = v1 !== "" ?
display.visible : display.hidden;
What I need is something along the lines of:
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
event.target.display = (v1 !== "" && v1!=="Hidden") ?
display.visible : display.hidden;
Thanks for any advise.

Thanks for the hints which led me to the right solution. I created a query to check if the trigger for the visibility was there or not, and this works. The script I have used is:
var v1 = getField("Text1").value;
var v2 = getField("Checkbox").value;
var v3 = getField("Text2").value;
event.target.display = (v1=="" || v3=="" && v2=="On" ) ?
display.visible : display.hidden;

How to: Print table on first page, use second page (back) for text only

Hi, I am looking for a clear document on how to use pagination and the Odd and Even pages.
We need to print a table over several pages, but only on Odd pages.
On the back of each page we need to print "Terms and Conditions". Is that possible? Can it be done without scripting
We are on ADOBE version 8.1
In the file properties, double sided is switched on, and version set to 8.1 and higher.
I created two Master pages, a FrontPage with ContentArea1and a BackPage with ContentArea2.
FrontPage is used for uneven pages, BackPage is used for the even pages. The masterpages are printed correctly (alternating properly).
Two pages were created for the content area's:
ITEMS: contains item data (table with header and footer). Place is "On Odd Page". After "Goto page BackPage". And if the table needs to be paginated it goes to BackPage with overflow leader "Conditions".
CONDITIONS: contains a textfield (Terms and Conditions). Place is "On Even Page". After "Goto page FrontPage". No overflow.
What should happen is that on the front pages the item table is printed. If there are too many lines it should overflow to page number 3 then 5 etc. All the even pages should display the text.
What actually happens is that the item table also gets printed in the content area for the Condition text...
Also the "Conditions" are not printed on the last back page. But only once before it...
Cheers,
Edwin.

Fixed it... After a lot of creating, deleting, playing around with pagination and the inevitable cursing...
I have created 5 pages:
1. FirstPage
     - Odd/Even: Odd (Front) Pages
     - Placement: First page (In page set)
2. FrontPage (For Odd pages)
     - Odd/Even: Odd/Front Pages
     - Placement: Rest of Pages
3. BackPage (For Even pages)
     - Odd/Even: Even (Back) Pages
     - Placement: Rest of Pages
4. LastPage
     - Odd/Even: No Odd/Even Restrictions
     - Placement: Last page (In page set)
5. DummyPage
     - Odd/Even: Blank pages
The 'Terms and conditions' are located on the BackPage and LastPage (as a text).
The table that is printed is (of course) located on a normal page (flowed subform).
Pagination tab: Placement = Following previous, and After = "Continue filling parent". No overflow... Basically, it's all default.
The table lines will now start on the first page and if there are more lines than can be printed on this page, it will continue in the next content area. That will be on the FrontPage.
The trick is that each master page must have a content area (mandatory). Except for Blank pages, but these cannot be used... Blank pages would only be used once, after the first page.
What I discovered is that you can drag a content area away from the Master page and attach it to a different master page.
Logically, if there is no content area on a page, then data cannot be printed there. So, I created a Dummypage. On this page I dumped the content areas from the LastPage and the BackPage. As a result, content cannot be printed anymore on the back of pages. Only the standard text (a text field) is printed there. When the data from the table is overflowing, it will automatically overflow from the FirstPage to the next content area. Which is located on the FrontPages only.
The DummyPage is NOT used anywhere.
The result is that the records can only be printed on the content areas that exist on the First and Front pages. The back pages are now skipped.
Duplex printing is now working correctly, and the text is printed on the back of all the pages.
Cheers,
Edwin.

Unable to print added text only in Acrobat Pro XI

User is trying to print added text that's been added to an existing PDF page. In Acrobat X she chose "Form fields only" under Comments & Forms from the Print menu. In XI it produces a blank page. The added text only shows up if she chooses Document or Document and Markups, but then she gets the entire document. She only wants the added text to print.

Thanks to all who commented here. I found that adding text using Tools>Content Editing>Add Text will not allow the user to print solely the added text. As everyone responded here, that's as designed. However, using Comment>Annotations>Add Text does allow the user to print solely the added text as she was used to doing in Acrobat X. I thought it was the same tool under two different headings, but obviously they interact differently in the print menu. Choosing Form fields only from the Print Menu's Comments & Forms panel will produce solely the text added under the Comment panel's Add Text tool without printing the rest of the document page. And the user doesn't have to turn the document into a form to do so.

Cannot Create Text-Only Topic File in RoboHelp 7

I've been trying to add context-sensitive text-only help to my project using ROBOHELP 7. However, when I select "Create/Import What's This? Help File" it
does not create the file when I enter the file name on the Create/Import What's This? Help File dialog box. I enter the file name and clicl Open BUT the file is not created....weird.
How can I create this file so i can create text-only help.
Thanks in advance:-)

Hi there
I posted this in response to the same question you posted on HATT.
Hi there
I decided to see if I could sort this. It seems illogical, but here is what I seem to have discovered. When you right-click the "What's This? Help Files" and choose Create/Import, one might assume that you would be able to create a new file. But this doesn't seem to be the case. So here's how I overcame it. From the dialog, right-click and choose to create a new Text file. Nothing will seem to appear (at least it didn't for me). Dismiss the dialog, then repeat the process. You should see a file named New Text Document.txt. Right-click and name it what you like. Then you will be able to point at this document via the dialog.
Cheers... Rick

HTML tags in text-only e-mail notification (with HTML attachment)

Greetings,
Our "Purchase Order Review" e-mail notifications (as generated by the WF-Mailer) have HTML tags in the message body (which is "plain-text" text-only), with an HTML attachment. (The attachment looks good, and is what we are expecting.) All our e-mail notifications are text-only (which is how we want them), and this is the only kind of notification that is generating HTML tags in the 'text-only' message body.
We'd like to keep the HTML attachment as it is, but we want to have the e-mail message body be text (without any HTML tags). The other option that would be acceptable is to NOT have any message content at all, and only the HTML attachment.
Can either of these options be done, and how do we go about doing them?? Thanks!! -- Tom

in the notifications properties you will see two tabs, in one you can enter your message in text and in another you can enter in html. not sure if you had tried these.

Alt Text Only Showing

When I upload images, they do not show up in either Firefox
or Safari (but do in dreamweaver). I have tried both .gif and .jpeg
files, in both cases, only the alternate text that I enter will
show up on the Web. The browsers are set to show images
automatically. I am using Fetch to upload my files, as I get FTP
error screen when trying to upload through Dreamweaver. I am mostly
concerned with the images, and getting them to show up on the web
(obviously I am a new Dreamweaver user). Any help is greatly
appreciated, Aloha.

Post a link to a page please.
