Form with only 1 text field + ENTER: Error 404

I have several JSP pages with forms to enter/edit data. As long as I use the mouse to click the submit buttons, I get no errors. If the form has more than 1 text field to enter, i can also edit one of these text fields and press the ENTER/RETURN key which has the same effect as the submit button clicked with the mouse. But if a form just has 1 text field, I get the following error when I press the ENTER/RETURN key (instead of clikcing the submit button with the mouse):
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
This is the same case on all JSP pages that only has 1 text field: they work when using the mouse by pressing the submit button but fail when using the ENTER/RETURN key.
Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround for this?

I believe that text inputs can have their own action
attribute, so providing the same value there as in
the form may help (though by default it should defer
to the form's action).
So try something like:
<form action="x.jsp">
<input type="text" name="..." action="x.jsp"/>
</form>
That doesn't help. The addresss bar is also always the same as the jsp pages are displayed in a html frame.

Dynamic Forms with Subforms and Text Fields

I've been reading all of the messages relating to subforms and dynamic forms and have used many of the suggestions, but haven't found anything that addresses the problem I am having. I'm using Designer 7.0. I've saved my form as a dynamic form, I've set my text fields for multiple lines and expand to fit. My problem is that as soon as I set the parent subform to Flow Content, everything moves to the left margin. I've tried grouping items together within a subform in hopes that the items will maintain their position on the page, but everything always moves to the left margin. I'm creating a legal form that needs to have text and a text field centered at the top of the page. Below that to the left is a text field that needs to be able to expand with two text fields to the right of it. Below that are additional text fields that need to expand as needed.
Am "stacking" my subforms incorrectly and setting the wrong subform to Flow Content? Or, can you now lock a field to a specific position? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, I hadn't understood that you needed the fields to expand in height and everything below them to move down the page. In that case, you'll need to use flowed subforms.
Having all objects move to the left side of the page is expected when setting a subform to flowed. That's because the flow is top-down, left-right.
One thing you could try is making the text field that needs to be centered exactly as wide as the flowed subform and then setting its left- and right-hand margins to an equal number. This would ensure an equal amount of space on the left- and right-hand sides and because the field would be as wide as its flowed container (subform), entering multiple lines of text would result in everything below moving down.
I've attached a sample form where the page subform has been set to flowed, the text field at the top is a multi-line/height-expandable text field with its width set to the page width and its left- and right-hand margins both set to 2in and the button and check box objects are pushed below the text field.
When text is entered into the text field, it expands in height and causes the button and check box to move down.
To achieve other horizontal and vertical positioning/offsets, you could play with the margins of all the fields that need this.

Retaining the cursor on a Text Field when error on the field

Hi,
We have a requirement, where when we tab out of a text field, the data entered gets validated and exceptions are caught using array list and then thrown on top of the page.
However, we have a requirement, that on tab out, the cursor should remain in the same field in case there are errors thrown on that field otherwise should move to the next field.
My Approach is
1) Capture the tabout event in PFR.
2) If the validation returns erorr messages, do a forwardImmediately to CurrentPage
3) Set the focus in PR and throw the exception.
I read the discussion on the link How to set focus on a textinput/poplist using PPR
and tried the same approach but below are my observations.
Approach - 1) WITH FIRE PARTIAL ACTION on text field.
Input = Invalid, then error message is thrown and I am not able to see the cursor.
Input = Valid , then I see the cursor in the next text field, which is correct.
Approach - 2) WITH FIRE ACTION
Input = Invalid, then error message is thrown, the text in the textfield looks selected, which is the required functionality.
Input = Valid, then still I see the same text as selected. Here I dont want the text to be selected and want the cursor to move to the next field. This is not happening.
Please let me know where exactly I am committing the mistake.
Thanks

Problem with characters in text field

hi all
i am missing a few characters, once i load text into a dynamic text field. chars are not missing per say; they are being replaced with empty squares.
characters like the euro sign and accentuated german a letter.
whats is weird is that other accentuated german letters do appear. so only a few selected are missing.
How ive set up the fla:
1) i've added 4 text fields to the stage in the font im using, Arial, one for each font style: normal, italic, bold and bold italic, and in all 4 fields ive embedded all latin characters (to include the german accentuaded characters and im guessing it's in the punctuation group that holds the euro sign, so that one is also embedded), besides lowercase, uppercase, numerical, and all the default groupd to include basic text.
2) i've got a dynamic text field, created with createTextField, and setup the following ActionScript (2):
this.createTextField("T_text",1,0,10,Stage.width-60,50);
var myFmt = new TextFormat();
myFmt.size = 12;
myFmt.leading = 3;
myFmt.font = "Arial";
T_text.html = true;
T_text.autoSize = "left";
T_text.multiline = true;
T_text.wordWrap = true;
T_text.selectable = false;
T_text.embedFonts = false;
T_text.textColor = "0x666666";
T_text.htmlText = _global.gallery_1_image_text_1; // this holds the text im displayed, called in from a database.
T_text.setNewTextFormat(myFmt);
now, im calling text from a database.
when calling the text from the browser url bar, there's no chars missing.
its just when i make this call from flash and load the text into the dynamic text field, that characters go missing.
below is a link to a print screen of the faulty text that is displayed in flash's dynamic text field.
http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/340/utf8.png
any ideas? i mean, it seems that the arial font is missing a few accentuated characters! because the code i have setup loads other accentuated characters.
anyone has seen this issue before and know how to solve it?
regards

no.
you assigned your embedFonts property to be false.
look, you can test if you've embedded fonts correctly by using:
T_text._rotation=3;
if you see no text, you're not embedding fonts correctly.
so, use:
T_text.embedFonts=true;
and then test. if you see no text, use:
click on the upper right of your library panel > new Font > select Arial and tick the symbols you need to embed > tick export for actionscript and assign a linkage id (eg, ArialID). click ok. then use:
this.createTextField("T_text",1,0,10,Stage.width-60,50);
var myFmt = new TextFormat();
myFmt.size = 12;
myFmt.leading = 3;
myFmt.font = "ArialID";
T_text.html = true;
T_text.autoSize = "left";
T_text.multiline = true;
T_text.wordWrap = true;
T_text.selectable = false;
T_text.embedFonts = true;
T_text.textColor = 0x666666; // no quotes here. this is a number
T_text.htmlText = _global.gallery_1_image_text_1; // this holds the text im displayed, called in from a database.
T_text.setTextFormat(myFmt); // to format the above text, use setTextFormat(). if you want to format text added after this line, use setNewTextFormat()

Is there a way to import data from a specific text field in a PDF form directly into a text field in a different PDF?

I know you can import form data from an .fdf file. Is there a way to import a specific value from that .fdf file into a text field in a separate pdf form?

So I want the FDF to export every time the user saves or closes the PDF. Then I want the import to happen every time the user opens the PDF. That being said, this all has to work with Adobe Reader. If this is possible in anyway, I'd manage this would require some time of script. Any thoughts?

Make form read only if a field is filled in

Is there a way to make an entire form read only if a certain text field is filled in? I know that adding a digital signature field to a form, increases the size of the form, so I would prefer not to add a digital signature field to my form. However, I would like the feature that says after the form is signed, it is read only. I added a text box to the form and tried to add some script that read: if (this.rawValue != "") (this.access = "readOnly"), but that didn't work. Is there a way I can accomplish this without adding a signature field to the form?

Hi,
It depends on where you placed the script, probably best place is the exit event.
if (this.rawValue != null || this.rawValue != "")
this.access = "readOnly";
else
this.access = "open";
This will only lock the field that the script is inside.
You should check out Paul's example LockAllFields, which contains a function in a script object. While Paul calls this from a click event in a button, you could call it fromthe exit event of the particular text field.

IExpenses-12.1.3 Facing Issue with 2 custom text fields on the standard OAF

Dear All,
We are facing problem where custom text fields on standard OAF page does not retain their values when we traverse back-forth on the OAF page.
Here is the exact issue details
1) We added 2 text fields(Attribute5 and Attribute6) through personalization on Mileage Line Details Screen(standard OAF page) of iExpenses 12.1.3.
2) And business requirement is whenever user enters values into these fields, difference of these values is populated in third field which is standard field on that page.
Issue
When user enters values into above 2 fields, difference is calculated correctly however once he clicks on return page and comes back again on the detail page
then all the standard fields retain their values but 2 custom fields have blank value.
Is there any issue with personalization? or any other issue? Please suggest.
Thanks,
Mahesh

Thanks Pratap for checking
There is button named as "Calculate Amount" on the line details page so it is happening in below 2 scenario
1) When User enters values in 2 fields and clicks on Calculate Amount Button then values get disappeared from custom fields
2) When user clicks on return button, go to main page and clicks on detail button ( to come back on same line) then all the standard fields have valuece and custom one's disappeared.
Thanks,
Mahesh

Interactive pdf form in InDesign repeat text field

Save form with data from a field

Hi,
Is there an option to save the form with the data from one of the fields?
Example:
form field "Name", user enters Will William.
Can I use this to autmatically save the form in the end as "Will William" and choose the save location?
Thanks

That's possible, but it requires privileged JavaScript code. This means code that's either in a folder-level JavaScript file or in a certified document that is trusted to execute privileged JavaScript.

Having issues with populating a Text Field with data from 2 other fields

I have 3 fields Tools_1a_pri, Tools_1a_pri_other, Tools_1a_pri_txt.
Tools_1a_pri is a drop down combo with a predefined list. One of the options is "Other". When "Other" is selected, the text field Tools_1a_pri_other becomes visible for users to enter the name of the other tool.
The Tools_1a_pri_txt is a text field with a calculation that shows either text stating that no tool has been selected or the Tools_1a_pri & or Tools_1a_pri_other.
When I select one of the predefined tools, everything works. When I select other, it appears that nothing has changed. It requires that I click on another field before it populates. This is confusing to the user.
Tools_1a_pri Validate code
this.getField("Tools_1a_pri_Other").display = event.value=="Other" ? display.visible : display.hidden;
Tools_1a_pri_txt Calculation code
//if nothing is selected, do the following
if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value.length < 2) {
event.target.textColor = color.red
event.value = "No primary tool identified";
}else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value != "Other") {
//otherwise do this if other is selected
event.target.textColor = color.black
event.value = getField("Tools_1a_pri").value;
}else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value = "Other") {
//otherwise do this if other is not selected
event.target.textColor = color.black
event.value = getField("Tools_1a_pri").value + " - " + getField("Tools_1a_pri_Other").value;

You made the classic mistake of using the assignment operator in an if-statement instead of the comparison operator. Change this line:
} else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value = "Other") {
To this:
} else if (getField("Tools_1a_pri").value == "Other") {

Please Help me with FormCalc Customized Text Field

A while ago someone online did a great thing for me- they helped me create a Text field that would type "This document was printed on _________" and include whatever day the pdf form was printed off our employer's intranet site.
I had a shortcut to it in my favorites and would click on it and plave it on every new document I needed it to be on.
Since the computer I was using suddenly crashed, I cannot find the details of how to set this up again. I have a pdf form that includes the box, but when I open it in LiveCycle, it is just blank.
This is what I saved:
<field h="8.4935mm" name="PrintedOn" w="141.0398mm" x="-0.0001mm" y="0mm" xmlns="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-template/2.5/">
   <ui>
      <textEdit>
         <border hand="right" presence="hidden">
            <?templateDesigner StyleID aped0?></border>
         <margin/>
      </textEdit>
   </ui>
   <font size="18pt" typeface="Tahoma" weight="bold">
      <fill>
         <color value="221,221,221"/>
      </fill>
   </font>
   <para hAlign="center" vAlign="middle"/>
   <bind match="none"/>
   <event activity="prePrint" ref="$host">
      <script>$.rawValue = concat("This document was printed on: ", num2date(date(), DateFmt(1)));</script>
   </event>
</field>
I do not remember what to do to get this working.
I use this "Printed On" textbox ALL the time, and I need to figure out what to do to get it working again quickly.
If there is anyone who could help me, I could also send you a sample of a form that includes it- then you can see exactly what I mean.
If someone could remind me how to program this kind of thing in once again and save it in LiveCycle, then explain how I can put it on another computer as well, I would really, REALLY appreciate it.
~Chris
PS- this one as I had it set up only prints the Printed on message/date on the first page. If it could somehow print on EVERY page of the PDF without me having to click and add it to every single page individually, that would be even better... but first things first!

Great, got it working!
Now just wondering, is there any way for this to appear on every page, or would I have to place this box on every page?
I have ~20 page documents and I have had requests to have this "printed on" show up on every page, but doing so seems like ti would be very time consuming.

Custom SR Form with only needed data

I'd like to start service requests from the Service Manager Console not from the Portal. How to customize the form is shown in
this walkthrough from Antoni.
So I want a custom service request form with a field to select Computers. In this field there only should be the possibility to select Computers with the asset status = deployed. Is there a solution to this or a hint where to look at?
Patrick Wahlmüller

so the idea behind the console is that it's supposed to be used by informed analyst who know the environment, so it's a little bit less friendly, by design. in regards to your ideas:
Type Projections do not have filtration, by design. a Type projection is a way of presenting multiple classes as a single unified combination type; That type can then be filtered or pulled into a view. it doesn't make sense to filter a type projection,
in the same way that it doesn't make sense to say that all zoos (I.E. a collection of related animals) must have tapirs (I.E. it's filtered by membership), a thing can be a zoo without having specific classes, even if they don't fit your view of
zoos
Groups are a way of collecting entities for security scoping. you could scope the user's roles down so they could only see vlans that are deployed, but it would mean they would not see the other vlans AT ALL. this may or may not be what you want
to do, depending on the purpose of the user roles.
just don't. InfoPath is.... unique, and you'd need to find a way to pull that data into the scsm database, and that's probably not going to be a good choice.
the only thing I can recommend is perhaps naming the deployed VLANs differently then retired or pre-production vlans, so it's obvious in the display name what the status is. this isn't a good answer, the best answer would be to have the status exposed in
the object picker, but that's not possible with the current entity design.

Tabular form with non base table field

I want to develop a tabular form with
1. A non-base table edit field to accept a value
2. Insert/update another table based on the input value
3. Also, computed field on each row based on other fields on the records (like post-query trigger in oracle forms at block level - for each row)
Thanks,
Rachna

Thanks for your reply.
Varad, I like the link you sent me. It has a lot of good information.
I created a process (under page processing) called "Update/Insert Process" that dosn't seem to be working.
Question, I created a manual tabular form with SQL Query and created a process (under page processing) called "Update/Insert Process", then I check for each record in the tabular form. If the old value <> new value then I update/insert in the new table.
Any step by step will be highly apprciated - to create process/validation etc.
Thanks,

CreateTextField and _height: Problem with Placement of Text Fields

I'm using createTextField to create several text fields
dynamically. I'm also using an external XML file and a style sheet
to populate the text fields.
My problem is that I'm trying to position the various text
fields on the page so that they are spaced evenly on the page
(regardless of how much content they might contain). I'm trying to
use _height of the prior text fields to place subsequent text
fields, but I'm getting very inconsistent results. When I trace the
value of _height, I get differing results, even if I don't actually
change any of the parameters. So, the question is...is there a way
for Flash to get the height of a dynamically created text field
that's populated via an exteral XML file and using CSS? I know
that's asking a lot, but I'm trying to avoid using scroll bars if
at all possible.
Thanks for any pointers.
Bill

i assume you're using multiline textifields with a fixed
width and autoSize="left".
flash will report the correct _height of your textfields IF
you access the _height property after your htmlText has been
assigned to your textfield. ie, you're probably seeing inconsistant
results because you're not waiting until all data needed to
populate your textfield has loaded.
