Form problems on website

I've created a fillable form which works fine on my PC, but when I upload it to my website the fillable part disappears. Help!
Thanks,
Pam

I do use Firefox and that seems to be the problem because when I save the file it has the fillable fields. Thanks so much for your help.
Maybe you can help with a related question then, which is, using Dreamweaver, how can I ensure that when I create a link to a file the little box comes up to ask if you want to view or download the file? I think that would solve the problem.
Thanks again,
Pam

When I'm filling in the form on a website Firefox jumps down past the next block and I have to go back using my mouse cursor

For example on Find-A-Grave when filling in the form to add a memorial there are several blocks that you fill in including location. For some blocks you type in the information and others are pick one of the preset selections. I generally hit the tab key on my keyboard and goes to the next block except when it comes to the preset selection blocks. If I use the tab key to go to the next selection it skips right past the next selection to the selection below that. For example, after I fill in the year I hit the tab key and type u for the United States under the country selection. But in order to get the next block to appear I have to hit tab again (but only when using your browser). Your browser then skips past the state selection to the county selection. Then when I pick the state using the cursor it does it again and drops down to the Bio past the county selection.
When I use Internet Explorer I don't have this problem. I merely hit the tab button on my keyboard and it goes to the next selection rather than as your browser does that is skips to the block below.
Is there some reason you have it set up this way because it is quite annoying to have to go back up each time using the mouse cursor rather than continuing to use the keyboard to fill in everything (typing, tab key or using the arrow keys). To say the least it slows the whole process down a lot. No, it is not my computer. I've had the exact same problem using another computer. No, it is not the find-a-grave website. I just used it as an example. Using your browser forces me to stop using the keyboard to fill in a form and use the mouse and then the keyboard and then the mouse and then the keyboard and then the mouse, etc when it shouldn't be necessary when filling out a form on a website.

Are you having the problem with just the one site? Others?
Please post some public linkss.
Start '''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Firefox in Safe Mode]''' {web Link} by holding down the '''<Shift><br> ''(Mac Options)'' ''' key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Acrobat 9 Pro fillable form used in website

I created a form in 9 Pro, and I attempted to enable it to be viewed in Reader, but I got a message saying "this form cannot be enabled for Acrobat Reader." I'm not sure why. When I insert the form into my website, the link (in IE and Firefox) starts to open, but hen an error message appears saying that the file is corrupted and cannot be opened. What do I need to do to this form to make it accessable through my website so that people can open it, complete it, and submit it back to me via email?

When I've had this happen, I've started over by creating a new base document and copying the fields and any code over to the new PDF. In cases I'm familiar with, it usually turns out to be a problem with fonts, such as them not being embedded. In any case, you probably won't be able to correct the situation without creating a new form.
If you do create a new base document, you can try doing a "Document > Replace Pages", which keeps the form fields in place and just replaces the underlying page contents.

Muse CC 2014 contact web forms problems

Hi I recently created a website using muse cc 2014 and I uploaded it to the hosting server a free one at freehosting.com I set up everything I know of and when I uploaded the site using muse it gave a error message saying something about PHP mail??? I setup the mail account for my admin user and entered that in the muse contact form. If I test the contact form I do not get the messages and I even added a email to have it forwarded to my yahoo account. If I go in my email account and enter the hosting email account I however do see the message on the server's webmail page and it gets forwarded to the email I set to be the forward email. I checked everything and I'm really confused as what needs to be done. I also submitted a ticket asking customer service they have yet to respond. To note I'm using a free hosting company as it's just a personal website that I don't need all the fancy stuff just the basic needed components to make it work. my website does show up and the pages work EXCEPT the contact form which is needed and important. I ran the script and this is the results
PHP Version - OK
mail configured incorrectly
SQL configuration problem
The last two items I really don't understand what is the problem
Im using Cpanel and here is some basic info on the host server. Please help me. Thanks

What would be the fix or proper setup for the "SQL configuration problem?" I too am having form problems on a third party host, and after checking the PHP diagnostics, the "php version" reads ok, the "mail configuration" is ok, but the SQL configuration is not.
I guess I just need to know what I need to communicate to the hosting administrator about the SQL so they will configure it properly.
Thanks

Contact / email form problem

I am adding a contact / forward email form to a website I am building and ran into a snag. I have the Adobe Classroom in a book for AS3, and in chapter 13 it gives me the code, along with a start file and completed file. The problem is, the completed file doesn't work. The code links up to a web address that has the PHP file that generates the email. Has anyone else had a problem with this? I have access to a server running PHP and uploaded it there and redirected the AS code in the example and still nothing. And yes, I have checked the book website for updates. Relevant code follows.
Thanks,
Jeff
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
var mailAddress:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.turnkeycreations.com/clients/tgc/email.php");
name_txt.tabIndex = 1;
email_txt.tabIndex = 2;
subject_txt.tabIndex = 3;
note_txt.tabIndex = 4;
print_btn.tabIndex = 5;
send_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onSubmit);
function onSubmit(e:Event):void {
    variables.sName = name_txt.text;
    variables.sEmail = email_txt.text;
    variables.sMessage =variables.sName + " has sent this note:" + "\n\n"+note_txt.text;
    variables.sSubject = subject_txt.text;
    mailAddress.data = variables;
    mailAddress.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;
    sendToURL(mailAddress);
    feedback_txt.text = "Your mail has been sent";
PHP:
<?php
$sendTo = $_POST["sEmail"];
$subject = $_POST["sSubject"];
$headers = "From: " . $_POST["sName"] . "<" . $_POST["sEmail"] .">\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["sEmail"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["sEmail"];
$message = $_POST["sMessage"];
mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>

I guess technically it does work, I sent it to another address to test it again. The problem is,
the address I used first is (not real) [email protected] . It has a period before the first and last name. Could this be the problem? If so, how do I fix?

Forms on a Website

Hi All,
I'm sure this is a simple question for you, but I want to make sure it can be done before I purchase the software.
What I would like to do is:
- create a fillable PDF form in Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard and post it on my website. Users would click a link to the form and it would open in Adobe Reader on the user's computer. (No problem making that happen.)
- the user could then fill out the form online and save the completed form on his computer as a PDF (and maybe print it) and/or email it somewhere and it would arrive as a PDF attachment to the email. The email going to multiple addresses would be nice too.
Will Acrobat Standard do that?
Ideally, the email would just go out without opening the email client on the user's computer and maybe just display a "Thanks for the input" message like when I do HTML forms on a website. Can that be done too?
Many thanks,
Dave

Any other suggestions? My form is really basic as it only has name address and other minor fields to fill in.

You will definitely be over the limit of what is allowed then.
Unfortunately, there are not many options available. You could set up the form to "submit" the data using email (it will send a data file that needs to be merged with your original PDF) but that can be inherently flawed. Especially if someone is using a web-based email (like gmail or hotmail). Reader would not know that it needs to open a browser and go to any particular email. But if this does not worry you then you can avaoid a limit by doing it this way.
Other ways include using Adobe Livecyle Extensions for Reader. I'm not sure what your financial situation is but it can run into the tens of thousands of dollars to handle forms like this. You can Google around a bit and find a couple of services that will offer to enable forms for a nominal fee but I have no experience in using one so cannot vouch for their dependability or ease of use.

How do I upload a form to my website using form central?

How do I upload a form to my website using form central?

Using Form Central you can distribute your form as a web-based HTML form, a fillable PDF form, or both.
You can copy the URL or the embed code for the form and post it on your website. When a respondent clicks the link, the fillable form opens in a browser window.
The only exception: These options don’t apply to fillable PDF forms that you imported into Adobe FormsCentral.
Please refer to the article http://help.adobe.com/en_US/formscentral/using/WSd789abd336388b16-9d277de12da94c8037-8000. html#WS49f7d3dd80da808f7c9fcbc138d00a7399-8000.

How do I put a PDF form onto my website?

New to Acrobat. Just bought 8 Pro for Mac version. How do I embed a PDF form onto my website?
Also, if the process to do this is hard, would upgrading to version 9 make it any easier? Thanks.

It depends on how the user's system is set up. Normally, the PDF will open in the browser, not just downloaded.
It is possible to embed a PDF in an HTML page, for example: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html
But note that not all users will have a PDF viewer installed, and not all PDF viewers are produced by Adobe, so this will not work for everyone. The above link cause my Firefox browser to crash, but it works with my Internet Explorer browser.

How do I put a fillable form on our website so people can fill it out and send back to me

How do I put a fillable form on our website so people can fill it out and get it back to me.

Hi;
This is a bit of a broad question, let me try to understand your needs a little better.
Are you looking to use FormsCentral to either create your form or create the form and collect and manage the responses? Are you looking for a web/HTML form or a PDF?
FormsCentral allows you to create web/html forms that when they are submitted the data is sent to FormsCentral and in a Paid level subscription you can configure Email Notifications to email the results to you, they are also always available in FormsCentral to view and analyze. For the web/HTML form you can simply add a link to the form on your website, or the web/HTML form can also be "Embedded" into your web site (there is Embed code on the Distribute tab).
FormsCentral can also create a PDF form, the PDF can either send the responses to FormsCentral like the web form with the same options (Notifications etc), and can also be a PDF form without a "Submit" button where you can then add a Submit button of your own that would email the responses to you. This requires having Adobe Acrobat to edit the form and add your own Submit button.
If you do use PDF see this FAQ on PDF in the web - we do not recommend "embedding" the PDF into your web page, do not have the PDF open in the browser, the users should download the PDF and fill it out using the Free Adobe Reader: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-4142
Thanks,
Josh

Problem with website name and hyperlinks

searching for the website name and clicking on it on google or simply typing it into the web search bar, it loads without a problems. the website is on the internet. However, when I hyperlink/send the name of the website to someone via email to announce it, the hyperlink doesn't work, it simply opens up an external page to whatever wi-fi server you are using and says it cannot find the page... whatever the website name is. why does the internet fail to load this site as a hyperlink via email but works fine on google or by typing it into the search bar?

the website name is www.ashingdonunitedfreechurch.org.uk.
typing it in the search bar of the browser or clicking on the link on google works, however when I send this via email to someone to show them the site, it doesn't load. depending on the wi-fi server, I use talktalk, a different window will appear from the wi-fi server saying it cant find that website, although of course it does exist.

Smart Form problem with address layout

Hello everyone,
I need your help please for a smart form problem. We need the address layout for great britain with street1, street2 etc. but currently street2 is alligned before street1.
We are using the FM ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM (SAP standard address node) and according to the documenation the layout for GB is different as we see it currently.
We have checked the sold-to and all contact persons, they have as country GB and language EN maintained.
In customizing for address screen layout there is nothing chosen (tested to set up Europe, but did not change anything).
For the customizing 'specify my countries...' we have maintained GB as country with the address layout key 006, vehicle country key GB and language key EN.
For the described setting shouldn't there be designed the address in our smart forms according to 006? Anyhting in customizing we missed?
Thanks a lot for your answers.

Hi,
Try to use line priority of FM, below is a brief of documentation. You can read it more in FM documentation:
Control Parameters
See also the parameter documentation.
ADDRESS_TYPE - Address type (from 3.0C)
There are three types of address:
Address type '1': addresses of firms or organizations; the address
structure which is used in most SAP applications as 'Address'.
Address type '2': address of a person
Address type '3': work address, usually the address of a contact person
in a company
The default value SPACE for the address type is handled like type '1',
and is needed for the upwards-compatibility of the function module.
Which parameters are used for which address type is explained in the
ADDRESS_TYPE parameter documentation.
The three character "address layout key" of the recipient country (LAND1) controls which of the available country-specific routines is used to format addresses for the country in question. This key is stored in field T005-ADDRS and is entered in Customizing under Global settings -> Set countries -> Define countries, on the detail screen under "Address layout key".
Keys for customer routines in the SAP enhancement SZAD0001 can be
maintained via the transaction SM30 (extended table maintenance),table
name T005A, in the customer name range, and be assigned in country customizing.
The address attributes are passed in the structures ADDRESS1 (type 1), ADDRESS2 (type 2), ADDRESS3 (type 3) or ADRSWA_IN (type SPACE).
NUMBER_OF_LINES (ADRSWA_IN-ANZZL)
The number of lines available for the address layout. If the number of
lines is not sufficient for the complete layout of an address, then
lines are consecutively suppressed according to the rules of the country in question. Use the parameter LINE_PRIORITY (ADRSWA_IN-PRIOR) overrules the standard sequence in which the output lines are to be suppressed.
LINE_PRIORITY (ADRSWA_IN-PRIOR)
If not equal to SPACE, this field overwrites the standard sequence in
which the lines are suppressed if the available number of lines ANZZL is
insufficient.
The standard sequence is defined as follows:
Type 1:   'AP43HRT7I86LC2BS5O'       (GB: 'APRT4327I86CBS5LO')
Type 2:   'APHRT7I86LCBS5O'          (GB: 'PRT7I86CBS5LO')
Type 3:   'APF43HR7I86TLC2BSND5O'    (GB: 'APRT4327I86CBS5LNDIO')
where (if they occupy a line of their own):
A = Title
P = Mandatory empty line 1
F = Function of the contact person in the company
4 = Name 4
3 = Name 3
H = Different city
R = Region
T = District
L = Name of country
C = Postal code
T = District
7 = Street 3 (field STR_SUPPL2)
I = Street 5 (field LOCATION)
8 = Street 4 (field STR_SUPPL3)
6 = Street 2 (field STR_SUPPL1)
L = Country
C = Postal code
2 = Name 2
B = PO Box
S = Street or PO Box
5 = c/o name
N = Name (and title) of a person
D = Department
O = City
Which of these attributes are available for maintenance can vary. All
fields exist in Business Address Services.
STREET_HAS_PRIORITY (ADRSWA_IN-WAREN)
'X': Street has priority over PO Box (delivery address for example)
' ': PO Box has priority over street. This is the default value.
regards,

What happens if I post a fillable form on a website that is used by more than 500 people (any versio

What happens if I post a fillable form on a website that is used by more than 500 people (any version of Adobe Acrobat) how can I accomplish this legally.

LiveCycle Designer does not figure into this at all. The other enabling software that can allow for unrestricted use is called LiveCycle Reader Extensions. There is a version of this software available through Datalogics (www.datalogics.com) as well that may be more convenient to use.
People often bring up the scenario of making a small change and creating a new form. I don't think this would be valid and use the following as a guideline: If the form is collecting the same data for the same purpose, it's the same form
I got this years ago from some materials for LiveCycle Reader Extensions and it seems reasonable.
Note that Reader 11 can do a lot without the form needing to be enabled, such as saving a filled in form and using template features, but not digital signatures. So if you can get your users to update to Reader 11, you won't need to bother with these restrictions.

I have a pdf registration form on my website. It has a link that take the user to a payment page within my website. They pay then submit the form. The link currently opens in the same browser tab as the form and the user thinks that is the submission, which it is not. I want my link to open into a new browser tab. How do I do that?

You can use the following JS code:
app.launchURL("http://www.example.com", true);

Can captivate guide someone through a form on my website and then they can submit it?

can captivate be interractive with a form on my website and guide someone through the process of filling it out with step by step guidance, and details. And then they can submit it?

Hi there,
You can create a short training in Captivate to guide someone, then can insert web object interaction in Captivate and give the URL of the form on your website, so learners can fill the form from there itself.
Do you have a form on your website, or is it Adobe's formscentral form?
Thanks.
