Fillable form missing submit button?

I created a fillable form in Acrobat Pro 9 which is to be used for data collection on a website, and emailed once completed. When viewed in a PC based browser, the actual fields are obvious, and the "submit" button is in the upper right corner of the form/page. When the exact same form is viewed in a mac based browser, the "submit" button is missing, and there is no obvious way to send the form.
HELP!

This is most likely because Reader/Acrobat is not being used to open the PDF. Certain browsers now have built-in PDF viewers or the document may open in Preview on the Mac. Some of these non-Adobe PDF viewers have incomplete support for forms or none at all.

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.

Missing Submit button

I have Captivate 3 and Flash 8. I exported a Captivate
project to Flash (so I could add some code and checkmarks to a
menu). The quiz questions don't have a Submit button. Is there some
trick to getting the Submit button to be exported to the fla? Is it
there somewhere that I haven't spotted?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Hi Hilary,
Let me start over, I started this thread because I was getting the "...data has changed..." msg when I created a new master/detail form in my app. I assumed it was because I was hitting the submit for the master, not the detail. I assumed the submit button on the detail was missing.
To demonstrate the issue, I used the wizard to create a new master/detail form in the sample app in my OTN workspace. It gets this error, but the original master/detail (pg 29) does not.
I reviewed the 3.1 User's Guide and the only caveat I saw about triggers on master/detail was that you can not have a manually entered key on detail region.
So, I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong in my master/detail pages. In my app, I have a trigger to create the key of both master and detail.
The error msg apex gives is slightly different in my master/detail on OTN and the msg I get in my local app. Here's the two msgs
From OTN:
ORA-20505: Error in DML: p_rowid=6, p_alt_rowid=ORDER_ID, p_rowid2=, p_alt_rowid2=. ORA-20503: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = blah blah blah
From my local app:
Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Error in MRU: row= 1, ORA-20001: ORA-20001: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum= blah blah blah
Thanks again for your help!

Distribute fillable pdf without Submit Button

I have created a pdf form in Live Cycle. When I go to distribute it (so it will be fillable/saveable) it include a "Submit Button" which is used to email/upload the document to a server. The button is located in the purple heading on Adobe Reader.
I do not want this and need to remove it. I do not need to email this document through this method nor upload it to a server.
I know this can be done as I have done it before but it has been over a year. I removed it previously and it had something to do with your Adove identity and had to "trick" Adobe to not pull your domain email address. I vaguely remember it was a setting for ghost/anonymous setting or something to that effect.
Can anyone help me? I just want to distribute a fillable form without being able to submit it through a button on the forum.
I have Adobe Pro 9 and Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2.
Thank you!

Hi,
If you do a search for Document Message Bar on this forum, you will find plenty of discussions on it.
When you distribute a form it is taking the email address that is associated with Acrobat. So if edit this in Acrobat preferences, it may help:

How do you Delete a Record using Form with submit button?

Hi,
The table REGISTRATION has two feilds, FULL_NAME and USER_GROUP. I created a form that has a drop down
of all the FULL_NAME values that allows the user to select the record that they want to delete. I got the drop down to work and
created the Delete Record behavior, I just can't get the submit button to send the form data and cause the delete to happen.
I have created other pages that update records in this way, but for some reason, I can't get delete to work.
Any Ideas?
Thank You in Advance,
Eric

The name of your form control is "select".
<select name="select">
The name of your form field in your SQL is full_name
<cfqueryparam value="#FORM.Full_Name#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_clob" maxlength="50">
You probably really want these names to match!
P.S.
Is your name field really a "clob" data type? Just how long are these names anyway.
P.P.S.
Why are you relocating from the page index.cfm to index.cfm?

Acrobat form with submit button

Have a coldfusion app that includes an acrobat form that contains a submit button. The button submits the form to another CF page. I'm making some fixes to this app and need to change where the form submits, currently it's going to production but i need it to go to test. When I open the form in Acrobat 8 or Livecycle I don't see any script. Anyone know where to change wheer this form posts?

Not sure about LiveCycle, but here's how to do it in acrobat.
1) Right click on Form Button -> Properties -> Actions
You should see a list of actions associated with the button. something like:
- Mouse Up
Submit a Form
2) Select on "Submit a Form" and click "Edit" at the bottom of the screen
3) Edit URL in "Submit Form Selections" window.

Form with Submit Button

I recently purchased the acrobat professional 8 and tried to create forms that people can fill in and submit it to us. I tried email button but for some reason never get the email for the data. I thought about http button, but it need some scripting skill. I have some knowledge in ASP script but never create any script for form submission before. Can anyone show me some sample of how to create the script or point me to the right direction that I could have the submit button feature?
Also, I seem some forms that can allow reader users to save the data that they type in the form onto their computer, do anyone know how to create a form with this feature?
Thanks

Use a regular button and change it's control type to submit. Under the Submit tab type in "mailto:youremailaddress". You can then either choose the Submit As for XML, which will send you the data that you can then import into the form or choose Submit As for PDF and you'll get the entire document.
Also, open the form in Acrobat, go to Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader. This will solve your problem.
*one thing to note, if you ever make changes to your form be sure to do the Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader step again.

Auto send form using submit button

Is it possible to configure the submit button to auto send without bringing up the email dialog box? I need to be able to have the form send to a speicific email address without the ability of the user sending the form the ability to change the emai address.

Adobe security ...you are not allowed to programmatically do something without the users knowledge. Your PDF could be used to generate countless emails from the users desktop without them even knowing.

Contact Form SVG Submit Button...

I am using the Contact Form widget in Muse. I have a custom submit button in SVG format, but if I add an image to fill the button part of that form it pasts it as an image not SVG - the add image in fill also makes it an image too. Is there a way I can define an SVG on the page as the submit button portion of the contact form?
Thanks!

Custom Web Auth - Missing "Submit" Button

I have scoured every topic I can get my hands on here at NetPro regarding custom web authentication. I am currently supporting a customer that MUST use a custom web page for two reasons:
1. Cosmetically, and rightfully so, they would like to use their own logo. Well, why not just upload the custom image, you say? See point 2...
2. Their custom AUP is beyond the allowed 2047 characters in the default template.
So I used the default internal template for a test login, and viewed the source to grab the HTML code. I know how to read HTML, so I began commenting out the sidebar, text, and headers that I didn't want. I then inserted the custom logo and AUP text. Visually, the page is fine. However, when I preview the page, the "Submit" button is completely missing. This is true both locally, as well as when it is uploaded to the controller. I also uploaded from the controller the 'loginscript.js' file by selecting file type 'configuration' and inputting the name 'loginscript.js'. I am including that information as well because I know other people have posted asking how to get that, and I haven't seen anyone respond with such instructions. I figured it out on my own after trial and error. If it can be obtained via WCS, it would be nice if someone would post that (other than the same method I used, simply using WCS as the management tool instead of direct controller access). My controller is running code 4.1.185.0, same as my customer's controller. I modified the reference for the javascript source from src="./loginscript.js" to simply src="loginscript.js" because I am putting the script and the login.html file in the same directory. If there is a different directory structure required, I haven't found any documentation saying so other than another NetPro post indicating "Web Authentication_files" folder (whatever that means)? I also noticed that some folks are saying that such a page would have to be run on an External server. If so, why?
Regards,
Scott

Web authentication files are stored in Web Authentication_files directory which controllers can recognize. . If you want to use a different directory it is used on External Web server so that there is no conflct in the storage location.

Forms Central "Submit" button

Hello,
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to add an "action" in the Forms Central "submit enabled" button to close the document after submitting.
Thanks.
Eric.

Sorry this is not something FormsCentral supports. You have to manually close the form yourself.

Fillable forms with radio buttons (Using Adobe Reader X)

I have two questions: First question, I have a fillable form with "yes" and "no" radio buttons. Currently the radio defaults to answer "yes", but I would like both the "yes" and "no" fields to be empty, which would allow the user to select an answer on his or her own. Second question, is there a way to make an answer required before moving on to the next question?
(Using Adobe Reader X)
Message was edited by: mp2athome

You need to check and make sure that the options for each radio button do not have the "Button is checked by default" selected.
You can make all the following answer radio buttons "read only" and only after one of the choices for the preceding question has been answered are the radio buttons for the next question are write enabled.
You will need Acrobat to create the form.

Submit form (using submit button)

I've created a form and added a button to submit it. I've added a 'Submit a form' action to the button and set the url as mailto:[email protected]
However, when I distribute the form and try to test it in Acrobat Reader (as 99% of submitters will) the email comes to my address as set in the Acrobat Professional preferences (identity). If I change my preferences and then distribute the forms it goes to the right place but surely I can set a form to go to another address without updating preferences - isn't that the point of the submit button action?
Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?
