Force Submit prior to Save?

I have a button scripted to submit to email and auto-close the document upon the click* event.
The problem we've ran into is that some people are saving the document and manually attaching it to an email and sending it to us.
This creates a problem in that we need the emails to be searchable based on content in some of the form fields. The form must be submitted for us to have this capability.
My question is can it be scripted to require the button I'm using to submit to be clicked prior to the document being saved? (i.e. they click on save and receive a popup directing them to "Submit" the form)
This would make our process much smoother.
As always any suggestions or useful input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for the response Lee.
I've already protected the fields with a click event on the submit button.
Can you provide a sample script of how to force a button click on pre-save?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Forcing the user to save before submit.

Hi,
I need to force the user to save the form before submit.
How can I do that ? Please help.

Hi,
You can use the dirty flag. If your users have Acrobat/Reader 9.1 or above then you could also use the cancelAction method (however this is a bit flaky in I think version 10.0).
For example, in the button's preSubmit event:
if (event.target.dirty == true) {
xfa.event.cancelAction = true;
You would also want to include a beep and/or messageBox warning to the user.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Presenter forces permanentely the file save dialog even for unchanged documents

Presenter permanentely forces the "Do you want to save the changes ..." file save dialog to appear even for unchanged documents when I try to close it.
To confirm the saving all times is not the solution because then I will loose the file's time/date stamp for the last real change.
Not confirming the saving can be risky in case of any changes to the document which I am not aware anymore for that moment.
Especially in case of having multiple documents open - this drives me really crazy.
Deactivating the Adobe Presenter Add-in would solve the issue - so it is a problem related to Adobe Presenter (and not related to Powerpoint).
I am using:
Adobe Presenter 9.0.2
Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010
Windows 7, 64 bit, Service Pack 1
Thanks for your help
Stefan

The easiest way to solve the problem is to temporarily deactivate Adobe Presenter when you don't need it.
In PowerPoint, go to File / Options / Add-Ins, select "COM Add-Ins" at the bottom of the window and click "Go".
Then un-check the Adobe Presenter PowerPoint COM AddIn:
You can easily reverse the process when you next need to use Presenter.

OS5.1 forced album artwork screen saver on me. How do I get rid of it?

I just loaded the newest OS for the Apple TV. I use my own photos for my screen saver. But the new OS has forced album artwork into my photo rotation. All I see is album artwork. I dont want that. Anyone know how to get rid of it? There is no on/off with that option in the screen saver menu.

Tophipherous,
I was confused too because i did not see the "My Computers" option that the jmfindley referenced. Here is how I was able to solve this problem on my Apple TV (5.1.1)
On the main screen go to "Photo Stream"
Select "Settings"
If any photo streams are currenty signed on (linked to the Apple TV) select "Sign Out"
Then, sign back on using the apple ID associated with Photo Stream you want to see displayed through your Apple TV. It should start building the library slowly on the screen, the number of photos will increment upwards a few at a time.
Finally, double check that your screensaver settings are correct (this happened automatically for me). On the home screen go into "Settings". Under "Screen Saver" check that the Photos option is now set to "My Photo Stream"
Hope this helps.

Force Mac Mail File/Save As to use Raw Message Source

Mac Mail version 6.3. When using File/Save As, is there a way to force the save as format to be "Raw Message Source" always? I change it to that, but over time it seems to switch back to Rich Text and I know I didn't change it.

Thank you.
I saved the email as Raw in a folder on my desktop, then went to file-import mailbox in mail, and tried to import it. I got a message that it saved to an import folder in the mailbox list, but there is no such file. I tried making an Import folder and import it again, but it did not work.
Then I tried saving as Plain Text and Rich Text Format. I got an error that No valid Mail for Mac OS X files were found.
I have SpamSieve, could that be a problem?

APEXUTIL.Get_file... need to force a prompt to save, open or cancel

I'm a newbie to APEX and am using APEX_UTIL.Get_File to open static files (PDF documents). The requirement specifies that the user must be prompted whether to save or open the file. We have created a "popup" page with dynamic PS/SQL:
DECLARE
    l_file_id NUMBER;
BEGIN
        SELECT id INTO l_file_id FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES
WHERE filename = 'LDSNav.pdf';
        APEX_UTIL.GET_FILE(
              p_file_id   => l_file_id,
              p_inline    => 'NO');
END;
For some reason, the file is loaded into the new page (as if we had coded p_inline => 'YES') rather than prompting the user to save or download when testing using IE and Chrome.   When testing in FireFox, it does not recognize the mime type and loads the file as it it were a text document.
Any ideas on how we can fix this?
Thanks.

In SQL Workshop, run this:
SELECT id, filename, mime_type
FROM APEX_APPLICATION_FILES
WHERE filename = 'LDSNav.pdf';
If mime_type is not 'application/pdf' (or something similar), that could cause problems.
Make sure you don't have any Branches per Documentation:
APEX_UTIL.GET_FILE()

Forcing a user to save a record

I'm looking for some help (a keep it simple solution). Within a form how would I have a message (alert) displayed that would tell the user that they must save the current record before proceeding.
conditions,
1. A user enters a record.
2. before the user moves to a new record, a message is displayed telling the user to save or remove the current record.
3. The user can not leave the record until the record is saves or removes the record.
What triggers would I use and at what level.
Jim Casarella

WHEN-NEW-RECORD_INSTANCE trigger fires each time a user navigates to a record.
Use this trigger at the block level
- Display the alert messages with the required message
- If user chooses to save the record
commit the form
- If user chooses to remove the record then
delete the record, commit the form and execute query to get the data again on form.
Hope this helps.

Storing sales order header text prior to SAVE

Hi.
I have a requirement to manually create a header text during sales order create based on certain criteria. I believe I would need to put this text into the internal storage/memory so that it would be as if the user entered it. Then upon save, this header text would be associated with the newly created order. I just cant figure out how to accomplish that.
I cannot find any method to create the text since there is no sales order number (TDNAME) available at the time.
Can this be done? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Mike.

SAP handles this somehow, so I'm going to take a guess at how it works....I think there's a text table and inside there the TDNAME will have the temporary SD doc number (like &0000000001 or something).... If you can find that and add your texts with the TDNAME same as rest of the internal text table, and 00000 appended for the POSNR (0=Header level in SD speak), SAP should insert these for you at SAVE... A suggestion: I haven't tried this and can't verify since my installation doesn't run logistics.

How can i force a login password save

When I log into some sites, FF doesn't ask to save the password even though there is no entry for the site I'm logging in to.......

There's also the Saved Passwords Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saved-password-editor/ - which allows you to add a new username / password manually.
Direct TV uses '''type="password" autocomplete="off" ''' in page source coding to tell web browsers not to save the user's password. Firefox respects those "instructions"; other browsers may ignore that.

How can I make the browser use the proper filename during a forced save, using CFCONTENT/CFHEADER

We have a client using CF8 Server for a site and I am using the CFHEADER/CFCONTENT method to force a file to save to the end-user's computer.
The dialogue comes up as expected, but regardless of what is found in the CFHEADER for a filename, it tries to save the file as the CFM page name.
i.e. The CFM page is signature.cfm. I am trying to make it save a TXT file to the user's computer, which it seems to be trying to do, but the instead of using "sig.txt" as the filename as outlined in the CFHEADER, it is defaulting to "signature.cfm"
While I know that I could change the name and extension and the content in the file would be correct, the mass majority of end-users will not know that they can do that, and the client does not want it to become more complicated than necessary.
Is there a way to make the file change to the proper name in the SAVE AS dialogue?
Thanks in advance.
Code so far is pretty straight forward ...
<CFHEADER name="Content-Disposition" value="attachment; filename=sig.txt">
<CFCONTENT type="application/unknown" file="#xf#">

I'm guessing the type="application/unknown" is interfering. Try type="text/plain".

How do i view email pictures in a new tab instead of being forced to save?

I used to be able to open up my email and right click on an image, which would allow me to select 'open in new tab'. This would allow the picture to display in an new tab, regardless of it being a JPG, JPEG, GIF, ect...
Now it forces me to either save it or open it in a different way. I have gone into options>applications and attempted to 'preview in firefox' but the option is not available for JPG, JPEG, GIF, ect...
I have the the most updated version of Firefox, so I honestly dont know what else to do.

When i hover over the image the following is seen:
"https://mail.aol.com/webmail...." followed with the rest of the url and it usually ends in ".jpg"
so it should be allowed to follow that link into the next tab, but when you right click and choose an option to view said image, you are forced to save.

Force Specific Screen Saver - %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation

I am trying to force a specific screen saver using the following in Group Policy.
Enable screen saver - Enabled
Force specific screen saver - %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
Password protect the screen saver - Enabled
Screen saver timeout - 600
On some computers it works, others it does not and still others show the bubbles screen saver. I have been unable to figure out why it's not working 100%. It's as if the local screen saver settings are overriding the domain group policy settings.

Hi,
Force specific screen saver - %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
What's the path of this?
The correct path should be: type the name of the file that contains the screen saver, including the
.scr file name extension. If the screen saver file is not in the %Systemroot%\System32 directory, type the fully qualified path to the file.
Local setting was unable to overriding the domain group policy. It might be the group policy was not applied to client. We could use gpresult command on client side to confirm:
Run "gpresult /h gpreport.html" command to saves the report in HTML format with the file name "gpreport.html" at C:\Windows\System32\ directory.
Open this file to check if this group policy was applied successfully.
Also check it on client which worked fine to compare this group policy setting.
