Form submit button to auto open a tabpanel tab?

Hi everyone. I've been trying to get a form submit button to keep a tabpanel opened. I have three panels one for the user to update their profile. Another show their current shopping cart, and the third to search past orders. It is this third panel that I'm having problems with. Whenever I click submit, the page refreshes with the default panel 0 open. I have to click on the third tab to see the results of my search. I've added the following code to the input field:
       <input type="submit" name="search"  value="Search"  href="?tab=2&panel=2"/>
I've also tried:
<a>
      <input type="submit" name="search"  value="Search"  href="#" onClick="TabbedPanels1.showPanel(2); return false;"/>    </a>
And I've also tried:
<a href="#" onClick="TabbedPanels1.showPanel(2); return false;">
      <input type="submit" name="search"  value="Search" />    </a>
No such luck.
How do I get to keep this panel open during a search?
Thanks
Rose

  • Make links look like form-submit buttons?

    How can I make normal links look like form-submit buttons?
    Is there a css solution? If not how do i write the html so the button is a link but appears as a button?
    Just so you know what I mean by 'button', im talking about how the 'Post Message' and 'Cancel' buttons look at the bottom of this form as I write it.
    Thanks

  • Can I add a button next to the location bar (just like the Home-button) that will open a new tab?

    In Firefox 3 there was a button that would open a new tab. This button was next to my location bar (next to the home, refresh, etc buttons), and also usable when I didn't have any tabs open (unlike the + on the tabbar, which is only there when I turn on my tabbar).
    Although there is a button I can add that will open a new window, I would like to know if it is possible to have similar button that will open a new tab.

    There's a New Tab button in the Customize Palette, just move it to where you want it.

  • Adobe interactive form-submit button is not working

    hai guys,
      i am following the example in sap technical.
    i have created the adobe form in webdynpro for abap applaiction.
    but the submit button doesnt work .(it doesnt trigger the break point set in on action method)..
    reading other threads,i verify,
    the button is dragged from webdynpro library(i dont ahve native and activex libbraries but only one library)
    i am on
    sap ecc 6.0
    netweaver 7.0
    adobe life cycle designer 7.0
    acrobat 8.11
    any suggestions?

    Hi Kumar,
    When you create the Adobe Form from WebDynpro, you need to follow one step in SFP Transaction or inSE80 transaction. Open the Adobe Form in any one the transaction and now in SAP menu bar "Utilities" in that you will find the "INSERT THE WEBDYNPRO SCRIPT" just click on that one. Then you will see a new Script Object is being created with the name "ContainerFoundation_JS" under the "Variables" in the Heirarchy of the Object Pallete of the Adobe Form.
    This step is mandatory to use the SUBMIT Button of the "WebDynpro Native", to trigger the OnSubmit event of the WebDynpro.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Form submit button won't work in most browsers

    I have a PDF form which I created in InDesign, then added Form fields in Acrobat XI Pro, including a submit and print button. These work fine in Acrobat Reader, but in many browsers (Chrome, Firefox) the "submit" button doesn't work. It works fine in Safari. Since most people filling out an application do it right within the browser, rather than downloading it and opening in Adobe Reader, this is a problem.
    The file in question is here:

    Shouldn't this work within any browswer?
    Thanks!

    Yes, it should, and it does.  The problem is that Chrome and Firefox come with their own PDF viewers, which do a very bad job, especially with forms.
    Users need to disable the Chrome / Firefox PDF viewers, then enable the Adobe Reader add-on.
    Firefox, see https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/use-adobe-reader-plugin-view-or-download-pdf-files and also http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1158136

    You may also encounter additional problems with Safari on Mac OS.

  • Dreamweaver Forms Submit button

    I can not get the submit button to work on the Forms page I built. Is it true that some special code is needed from the website server to put this all together and make it work? If so, why doesn't it tell you that somewhere in the Dreamweaver tools. It seems it shouldn't have to be that hard to make it work. If there is an easier way to make it work, please let me know. All I get when I try it is an empty email comes up when I click Submit. There is no form included in it.  I need to get this working on our website. Please help. Thanks.

    Dreamweaver is a professional level tool, it assumes you understand the basics of html, css, javascript and some server scripting.
    It's not terribly difficult to make a form function (using a mailto: link in the form's action attribute), it's only a bit more difficult to make it function securely, without opening your email address up to massive amounts of spam and causing half of your viewers to see nothing when clicking on the submit button.
    Personally, I use the Formmail script from http://www.tectite.com it's fairly secure out of the box (and offers more security with reCapcha) and has a lot of features you can choose to use, or not. It's loads safer and much more reliable than attempting to use a mailto: link.
    If your server supports PHP, I'd suggest trying it out.

  • Form "Submit" button won't center in MSIE 8

    I have a simple (not yet working) form on a page that I'm designing (url below) that has a "Submit" button at the bottom of the form. I have created a class called .center which sets top and bottom margin values, plus "auto" for left and right margins. And it sets display to "block". I have applied that class to the "Submit" button. It appears centered in Firefox, but not in MSIE 8. Can someone tell me why, and let me know how I might get the button to center in both browsers?

  • Form- Submit Button/Drop-down file format and error message HELP (!!)

    I am setting up a form with a drop-down menu and a submit a form button that is supposed to email the form. My coworker opened it and filled it out and pressed submit and it replied "the file may be read-only or another user may have it open..." How do I fix this problem as the creator of the form not the receiver? Also, is there a way that I can save it in a format that would allow people who do not have adobe acrobat reader on their computers to still be able to use the drop-down and submit button?

    Have you tried anything from here yet: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-javascript-errors-dreamweaver-cs4.html

  • Acrobat Form Submit button not working with Reader

    I created a form using Acrobat Pro 9 with a submit button function. When I email the form to users they are only allowed to submit the form if they have Acrobat Standard or Pro. For users that have Acrobat Reader they are able to open complete the fields and print the document but are unable to use the submit function. They receive the following message "This operation is not permitted". 
    I need all Adobe users including Reader to be able to submit this form. How do I fix this?
    Help is greatly appreciated!!

    You need to Reader-enable the form in Acrobat by selecting: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
    This is because the form needs to be saved before it is attached to an email, and Reader normally cannot save a modified form. Reader 11 is able to save a modified form, however.

  • Forms - submit button not working

    A client asked me to create an eflyer with a registration form included to be emailed out. I added form fields to the form page and an email submit button. Works fine on my Mac - opens Entourage correctly addressed and with the xfdf file attached. Tested on Parallels Desktop running Windows XP Pro and this seemed to work too. However when my client tested it on her PC, when she clicked on the submit button nothing happened. It works for her on the web but understandably she want's it to work when people receive the PDF as an attachment to an email. She uses Outlook as her email client.
    Any thoughts? Many thanks.

    Mike
    Thanks for your comment. I've sent a new PDF to the client with the extended rights turned on and this still doesn't work, as you thought. I know I've read about how unreliable emailing PDF forms can be but I wanted a simple solution on a document that my client wants to email to her contacts. Maybe it's just not a good idea to start with though you'd think that seeing as how adobe have added the feature it might just work! When I tried on Windows running on my Mac when I clicked send it asked me whether I wanted to use local or web-based email which implied you could use either? (I don't have an email client currently set up under windows as I only use it for opening the odd PC only file that clients send me which is I guess why it asked the question rather than chaining straight into an email window).
    I'm attaching the document in question. The form is on page 3.
    Many thanks for your support

  • Clicking twice on a Form submit button

    I have problem that I need either help on solving or ideas on a different solution please.
    I have some code in a request scope backing bean that sets a Boolean in a session cope bean to true. This indicates that the form has been submitted within this session.
    So if a user tries to submit the same form in the same session, the form backing bean will check the session bean property, see that it is set to true and the method which handles the Form�s commandButton in the backing bean returns null, with a message saying that the form can not be resubmitted.
    Also within the session bean I set a property that indicates if a credit card payment was made or not, and when the form backing bean sends its message on a form resubmit, it also informs the user if a credit card transaction had actually occurred or not.
    This works fine when you fully submit the form and return to the form page and try to resubmit it. But (there always is a but) when originally submitting the form, if a user clicks the submit button once, and then once again in quick succession (not a double click though) the session form property that gets set to true when the credit card payment is made does not get resolved correctly. It gets resolved as false (this is how it is initialized), even though it was set to true as a result of the first click.
    Only in the case of the clicking twice scenario I get an exception in the log file, which I can�t trace back. The request is directed through a filter �OrderAccessControlFilter� which seems to mask where the exception originally occurred.
    Sorry for the long explanation, I would appreciate any help.

    Hi,
    I am also facing the same problem. I have 2 buttons on my page, enable and disable. When I click enable and then disable in quick succession, the application crashes.
    Also, I put in some System out statemets in the button handlers and found out that a new thread is spawned for every request made. Each if this thread tries to service all the actions performed on the page.
    For eg : if i click on Enable and the Disable in my application, the flow is like:
    1. Thread 1 goes into the enable handler
    2. A new Thread 2 goes into the enable handler
    3. Thread 1 returns from enable action
    4. Thread 1 goes into the disable handler
    5. Thread 2 returns from enable handler
    6. Thread 1 returns from disable handler.
    7. Application crashes.
    Can anyone please explain this flow?
    Thanks,
    Mahajan.

  • Is there a way to link multiple emails to a form submit button?

    The project I am working on requires that employees submit a form to their respective managers. There are multiple managers and I am only wanting to have to send out one PDF form to everyone.
    I am wondering if  there is a way to have a dropdown list with peoples names and have whatever name is selected in the dropdown list be the email address that the form gets sent to when the user hits the submit button.
    Right now I just have it set up so that each form has a different "mailto:" address in the submit button, meaning I have to have 7 different PDF's, each with a unique email for that manager.
    Thanks in advance for all your help!

    Yes, you could capture the email address from a field on your form and create a dynamic e-mail submission. You'll find detail on how to do this in the following tutorial:

  • HTML Form Submit Button to call a procedure

    hi! been looking high and low across all forums and it seems there are specific users like myself having problems with submit button and pl/sql procedures. Hope someone can clarify on this.
    Scenario: created a html/dynamic page with a submit button(no java scripts, just plain <form action="schema.procedure" method="post"> etc) to pass values into a procedure to update database. In my case, i've hard coded the values in the procedure for testing purpose(thus my procedure don't receive any in parameters).
    Problem:
    Clicking on Submit button will result a page not found error.
    Solution read so far:
    Ensure that at least the Public has been granted Execute Access on that procedure, which i find funny cos I am logged in as the adminstrator having all the rights, heck, i even created the schemas, procedures and tables.
    Result for me:
    Page not found displayed, but when I highlight the url on that page (which is the complete address)and press Enter, the procedure went through and display the message in my procedure?!
    But if I clik on a link (pointing to the same procedure), the procedure went through immediately.
    I have tried:
    a) clearing the browser cache
    b) deleting archive versions of the page
    c) entering the whole address
    d) recreate the html page using pl/sql
    but still the same problem.
    Any advise on this? Is this a bug? how to go around this?
    Rgds.

    Hi,
    I did the following :
    1) created a procedure called test1 in schema portal30
    create or replace procedure test1
    as
    begin
    htp.p('Hi there');
    end;
    2) granted it to public
    grant execute on test1 to public;
    3)created a dynamic page like this:
    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Example</TITLE>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <form action='portal30.test1'>
    <input type="Submit" value="click me">
    </Form>
    <H1>Example of A Dynamic Page</H1>
    <ORACLE>select * from PORTAL30_DEMO.emp where deptno = :department</ORACLE>
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    4) ran the dynamic page ,works fine
    Thanks,
