Fighting with Submit Button and Return Address / distributing Forms

I go crazy, too ! We designed some smart forms for a new evaluation process, too, and had a successfully test within our IT collegues. Now we handed the process over to the users, and the problems are on!
We made sure that everyone uses the same version of Adobe 9.1.2 Pro - but not 2 users do have the same results.
We found following 2 major issues:
1) When opening the _distributed.pdf - users either completly missing the pink bar with Highlight fields / Submit Form
or, very odd, just the Submit Form button
2) For those who fortunatly have the Submit Button, another odd thing happens:
The Send form correctly shows the to: address .....
Our Desktop Email Application is Notes...
Guess what .... Now the Email adress changes to [email protected] ( this worked fine in our testings before...)
Do you have any clue from where this address is pulled ???? We checked the identitity Info in the Adobe installation at the users computers, the email and name entries are correct there.....
Please help !!!

I am pretty sure the answer is in the script. I have put together pieces of script from other suggestions and I am pretty sure I have ascrewed something up along teh way. I have looked at the attached link and that is where I got some of the script you see below. I am sure you will refer to me as the hatchet person who chopped the script up. sorry. (It is in the Mouse Up) This does work, sort of...It will give the user the message that the required fields are not filed in if they are blank, but it will send the email, but without the custom message in the subject line.
if (employeename.rawValue != null || employeename.rawValue != "") {
vSubject = "Form completed by " + employeename.rawValue;
vBody = "The form has been sent by " + employeename.rawValue;
if (completedate.rawValue != null || completedate.rawValue != "") {
vBody   = vBody + " on " + completedate.rawValue;
if (EmployeeID.rawValue != null || EmployeeID.rawValue != "") {
vBody = vBody + " Your ID is: " + EmployeeName.rawValue;
var oDoc = event.target;
oDoc.mailDoc({
     bUI: false,
     cTo: "[email protected]",     cSubject: "Statement from " + EmployeeName.rawValue + "

I was online earlier this week and liked the forms with submit buttons and the Adobe site directed me to upgrade to Adobe PRO XI in order to use forms so I bought five licenses. Just had it installed today and it is now asking me to sign up for forms Central in order to use this feature. What gives? The Adobe site gave me the impression that I would have this feature after purchasing the new upgrade. I would not have purchased the upgrade, let alone five of them had I know this. Am I missing something?

Acrobat XI comes with the Fromscentral AIR application and the ability to create PDF forms authored in Formscentral. To have more than the free (1 form with 50 responses) level account you need to sign up for a Formscentral subscription.

I have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.

Hi All,
i have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.
Now, i open the form fill it and attach some files, when i press submit button, that attachments will go to the particular document library.
Can any one help me out.
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Anil,
According to your description, my understanding is that the attachments attached to the form were submitted to an documents library.
By default, the attachments should be attached with the InfoPath form and will not be submitted anywhere.
There may be some customizations on the form that is to submit the attachments to the document library.
Please check the links below if the customizations are made in the form.

Submit button to return a completed form as a pdf attachment

Win XP SP3
LiveCycle ES 8.2
I’ve created a submit button to return a completed form as a pdf attachment (see http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_How_do_I_change_the__Email_Submit__button_so_it_wi-16533.h tml “Use a regular form button”) but the fields in the filled & submitted form that arrives in me inbox are editable e.g. I can alter or delete what’s been entered.
This form will be accessed through a link on the organisation’s website & will open in a browser, rather than in reader itself.
How can I set the form so that once it’s been submitted the fields become uneditable? This needs to be something that I do to the form before it’s uploaded to the site so as to make it as simple as possible for the people filling it in.
TIA

You can put a Signature Field on the Form and set the Property to lock the form Fields after signing.
So once the form is signed and submitted it cannot be edited.

Document with submit button, and signature with second submit button

I have a form that is filled out by one person who submits the completed form to his/her manager. When that manager signs the form, he/she also clicks a radio button either approved or not approved.
When I test this form and click not approved the following message is displayed:
GeneralError: Operation failed.
XFAObject.rawValue:1:XFA:form1[0]:#pageSet[0]:Page1[0]:PageCount[0]:ready
Property: 'rawValue' cannot be set because doing so would violate this document's permissions settings.
I'm not sure how to troubleshoot since I don't know where this is coming from.
Thanks for any help that is offered.
Thank you,
MDawn

Does this error only occur after signing? If so, you may have locked down the field you are now trying to modify. Check the "Lock Fields After Signing" option in the Object Palette.

SUBMIT button and VALUE clause

I have a jsp screen like below.It shows in a tabular form all the employee data.
EMPLOYEE DETAILS
EmpId_______ProcessEmpSalary_____ProcessEmpLeave
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
NEXT______PREV____LAST____FIRST
Under ProcessEmpSalary ,ProcessEmpLeave of each employee I have a submit button and clicking on it the particular employee id has to be processed (for salary or leave).Now I want the employee id to be passed when the submit button of that particular employee is pressed.
So what I am doing is I put the emp id in the value clause and achieve my purpose.But this results in the display of the emp id over each submit button.It looks ugly and so
I dont want to use the VALUE clause of the SUBMIT button.........
So friends please tell me how to achieve it.Someone suggested me to use IMAGE but it doesn't work.Some suggested I use hidden varaible ,but I just don;t understand how is that possible.Some suggested me use javascript to pass the value and throw the form...this make sense but problem is I don't have time to learn javascript now.So please help with some code example how to achieve this result.

Here is my jsp as it is .Employee id was used for example.In my application it is Submission_Id
which is used as the key.
Note:
The method is given below after the end of this JSP code.

Edit email for submit button and Javascript?

How can I change an email address attached to a submit button on a previously created form? 2) How can I see if JavaScript is being used with form? A prior team member created interactive forms with a submit button. Email address attached to button needs to be updated. I tried to edit in Acrobat Pro by double clicking the button to access the properties panel, but it doesn't open. If I recreate the form to amend the address, my file size is about 1/3 of the original which leads me to believe there is JavaScript.

Thank you. My version of Adobe Acrobat Pro X Tools- Forms edits in
LiveCycle Designer after the form has been created and saved.. There is no
other edit option as shown in the screen print below. The action wizard in
Pro doesn't seem to apply in this case. I had tried right clicking the
button in both Pro and LiveCycle previously to no avail. However, when the
form opens in LiveCycle, I just figured out that there is an object window
that allowed me to modify the email address.
However, I don't understand the file size difference or even how to find
the JS. We both used the same original word docx. His file size is 47K and
my recreated file is 19K, a big difference. I didn't compress mine. Any
thoughts on what is causing the difference? The forms are on a client's
website for external users to complete so load time is still important.
Thanks,Vickie

How can i disable a submit button and execute submit_action method on click

Good Day,
On my page I have a submit button that execute the submit_action method of the page backing bean that submit data captured on the page into a database and activate another class that send mail at the same time on a click of the submit button,the mail process takes a while before returning back to the page.I was able to disable the submit button to prevent the user from keep click while the process is running but the issue is on clicking the submit button it only disable the submit button without executing the submit_action method of the page backing bean.How can i disable the submit button and execute submit_method of the backing bean at the same time.
Thanks in advance.

I tried this out on one of my pages to see if it works.
First, I added the following JavaScript to my submit button's onClick event:
this.disabled=true; return true;When I clicked the submit button, it was disabled but the form was not submitted.
I deleted the JavaScript from the onClick event and added the following JavaScript to the form's onSubmit event:
var button = document.getElementById("form1:submitButton"); button.disabled=true; return true;When I click the submit button, it was disabled and the form was submitted but the button's action method was not called.
The next thing I tried was to change the onSubmit event code:
var button = document.getElementById("form1:submitButton"); setTimeout("button.disabled=true", 500); return true;This seemed to work. The difference was that I added a 1/2 second delay before disabling the button.
See if that works for you. If not then I'm fresh out of ideas.

Client side validation with submit button in another region

Hi,
I have two regions, one containing a form with input texts for the user to fill in, and another region with a command button. A few of the input fields use the ADF "required" validator.
My problem is that when I click the submit button, and it does some logic to commit the form to a data base, even if the validator triggers and says that one of the required fields is empty, all the other fields get committed, except the ones that are empty. They get the last valid value.
What I want is the button to trigger the ADF message that doesn't allow the user to continue with the update. This doesn't happen though.
Anyone have any ideas? If you need a more thorough explanation, please let me know.

Regions work as indipendent pages.
Yet if submit buttons are partialSubmit="false" then both regions (pages are submited).
Still there is a bug when commiting data:

Associating two events with submit button using javascript in jsp

Hi
How can i Associate two events with submit button using javascript in jsp. Firstly it should insert the data to database and secondly it should close the same pop-up window

Have something like :
<input type="submit" name="submitbtn" value="Click me" onClick="function1(); function2(); " />
You just call both functions sequentially, it's that simple. Although using javascript to work with a database, that seems a bit tricky.

Difference between Submit Button and Button

Hi,
Please help me understanding the difference bewteen the following cases.
1) Submit Button + ActionType : None
2) Submit Button + Action Type :fire partial action
3) Submit Button + Action Type : Fire Action
4) Button + Action Type : fireAction
5) Button + Action Type : firePartialAction
My Understanding is 1st and 4th Both submits the form.
Also, please let me know, is it a valid scenario where we use the SubmitButton and still gives ActionType. What difference it makes when action type is given with submit button.
I understand that when we use 4th then it submits the form and whereas in case of 5th it doesnt.
Thanks in advance
Saurabh Agrawal

Hi,
Thanks for your replies.
Actually i wanted to understand this in context of the issue we are facing.
We have a text field and a button besides it. We have a TAB OUT even associated with the text field which is captured using firePartialAction event. Also, the button is a SUBMIT BUTTON with a partialFireAction associated with it.
1) When you give % in textfield and tab out a popups come and load the data in a table - WORKS FINE
2) When you dont enter anything in textfiled and clicks on the button, same popups comes and loads data into the table. - WORKS FINE
3) When you give % in Text Field and clicks on the BUTTON, from JDEV, we verified that TAB OUT event gets triggered.Once that event is over, we can see the HOUR GLASS which doesnt go away. --- ISSUE
Resolution Tested : When i just remove ACTIONTYPE from button and do NAVIGATION - 3, issue is resolved.
Also, if i make that button as BUTTON and give FIRE ACTION, issue is resolved.
Now the main concern is the same combination SUBMIT BUTTON and ACTIONTYPE: firePartialAction works fine in 11i and causes issue in R12.
Please let me know your comments.
Thanks in advance

The 4 fields am working on are First name, last name, Mi and comments. First and last are alwasy used, but if MI is not I dont want Null in there, with what I have above it works but its messy. I wanted to do the same with Comments if its left blank I like for it to read "Comments: None" not null
on the If statement I just re did the whole deal with out the mi.rawvalue but i now that is not right way... any help would be great.
Thanks

I believe that you should re-post this in either the Forms or the Designer forum. You are more likely to get the right folks to look at it there.
Generally this forum is for building custom Document Service Component (DSC) plugins that extend the LiveCycle ES server side product.

Can you stylise the Submit button and can you manually place it

Hello
I have a large pdf document with the form in the middle of it, are you able to style the submit button and are you able to manually place it on a specific page when using FormCentral?
Kind Regards
Eugene

HP Photosmart C4795 when printing addresses and return addresses on envolps are not lined up.

The return address or mailing address when printed on the envelop are not ligned up correctly on the envelop in the correct location. The Return Address is printed in the middle top of the envelop instead on the left upper corner, the Mailing address is printed to far to the right of he envelop.

x3,
Follow these directions and check these settings to print envelopes from Microsoft Word.
Click Tools , click Letters and Mailings , and then click Envelopes and Labels .
Type the Delivery and Return address information.
Click Options .
On the Envelope Options tab, set the following options:
Envelope size : Set the envelope size to match the loaded envelopes.
US only : Select Delivery point barcode to make it easier for mail sorting machinery to correctly route the envelope.
Return address : Set the Return Address position .8 inch in the From left section for Size 10 envelopes only.
Envelope Options tab
Click OK .
Select the Printing Options tab, and verify that the following settings are selected:
Select the Feed Method option that shows the envelope on the far right side with the short edge first.
Select Face down .
Examine the selected feed method image and verify that the envelope flap is on the left side of the envelope. If it is on the right, select or deselect Clockwise rotation .
Printing Options tab
Click OK , and then click Print
Let us know if it helps, Best of Luck!

Hi Lionalx,
I've tried to follow your tip but I got a page that contains the following message : "This directory contains some helper apps and scripts for setting
up Microsoft Access, SQL Server, or Sybase databases to use with
the examples in examples/Table. For details see the online
documentation in:
http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/swingdoc-current/db.html". Just it. So I've copied the indicadet address but it's redirect to main page of 'swing'. I was there before.
Despite of this error, I'm finding some interesting tips in the address that you indicated. OK?
Thanks.
If you have something new or tip please write me
Thanks
