Forms and auto fill

Is there a way to delete the auto-complete info on website fields without erasing web history?

Yes, in Keychain.

Passwords and Auto Fill not working...

All of a sudden, new passwords are not being retained and auto fill doesn't work at all. I've repaired permissions, checked every setting I can think of. What should I try next?
Thanks,

I had a similar problem with autofill. Repairing permissions with Onyx seemed to work. (But first, double-check that Autofill is enabled and your "me" Address Book card is correct.)

How to: Create a master form that auto-fills data into other pdf forms?

I hope someone can please help me. I have about 15 PDF forms that all require similar data entry (name, address etc). Can I create a master form that we fill in once per client, and then auto-fill in the matching data on the 15 forms?
I am not looking for an online solution as the information is highly sensitive.
I have already created a form in Acrobat X Pro with the 'master data', and created the (15) forms with identically named fields. How I link the forms now to the master, I cannot figure out (after much searching).
I have read similar questions on the same topic but have not found any answers. I hope this time someone can please help.
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you! I had just figured out how to export the data from the master as an FDF file and then import it to the other files. I'm afraid I don't understand scripting to automate the process across multiple files. To you mean with java script?
I've also thought about combining the forms, once we know which ones the particular client will need. I have to see how it works in practice for my colleagues who will be using them.
Thank you again.

Form is auto filling fields

I have come across pdf applications online that let you fill them out right there and submit them which is awesome but I have come across a few that auto fill all of the boxes in the section. Mainly when it wants previous employers, I will enter my current employer and it will put that info into all of the other previous employer fields. When I go to one of the other previous employer fields and change it to the correct info it changes all of the others to that information... I am very confused about what is going on and can't send in these apps because it shows that all precious employers are the same one... Any help? Thank you in advance

This means that the form was not created correctly and all of those field names are the same. If you're able to edit the form in Acrobat, you can correct it by giving each field a unique name. If that's not possible, try to get the form corrected by whoever supplied you the form.

Drop down menus, context menus and auto fill menus items don't appear!

I have FF4 beta, this started since FF4 beta 7. I work on Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.
The problem is that I can't see drop down menus unless they have alot of items, nor context menus (like highlighting a text then right-clicking it), auto fill bars don't show the auto fill info entered before .. the menu itself appears, kinda. but it's transparent and the I can't see the items, don't know where to click to select the thing I want.
I haven't got this problem before 4.0b7 .. after I got it, I thought it was one of the plugins, so I disabled them all but still have the problem!
An image describing the problem is here, taken now on this page, I highlighted a text, and right-clicked it: [http://imgur.com/e9juh.png here] you can see the menu is somehow appearing, surrounded by the red border, but I can't see it!

Hardware accelaration disabled also worked for me. ATI Radeon 4670.
Seems the issue isn't set on one type of card. My flicker/vanish only did so on my secondary monitor.

I have an iMac and the latest Firefox; however, I *can't* get auto-fill to work...I do a lot of repetitive data entry and auto-fill/auto-complete IS NOT WORKING

I downloaded the auto-fill app for firefox (latest version) and have the latest firefox version, yet none of the autofill works whenever i do it once.
i've even restarted firefox, shut down my iMac for a while, started firefox up again, nothing.
i do A LOT of repetitive data entry and this is getting frustrating for me to work from home.
help, please! *thanks in advance!*

We apologize that you are experiencing issues with some Firefox feature.
When typing in a text field, does is drop-down list appear when typing?
If not, please '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

How can I export a PDF form and the filled in fields to a text document?

OK, so I have a situation. I need people to be able to open a reader-enabled PDF form, fill out the form fields, and then export the filled-out PDF form to a basic text document. This seems easy since Adobe Reader can save to text. The problem is, the answers in the form fields do not show in the text file! Each radio button shows as yes and no, and there is no indication in the text file which one was selected. In addition, the form fields are not exported next to the questions on the form. I tried flattening the form in Adobe pro, and that did not work either.
How can I create a fillable form for Adobe Reader, and then let the user export their answers AND the questions on the form to plain text?

OK, so I tried this as a starting point, and assigned it to a button on page 3 of the form.
p=0;
console.show();
console.clear();
for (var j = 0; j < this.getPageNumWords(p);j++) {
      var word = this.getPageNthWord(p,j,false);
      console.println(word);
This gives me all the words on the first page not in fields, and each word goes on a separate line. Now, characters in the document such as "&" or ")" cause the rest of the word to go on the next line down.
Next, I tried this:
console.show();
console.clear();
for (var j = 0; j < this.getPageNthWord(j);j++)
      var word = this.getPageNthWord(j,false);
      console.println(word);
This only gives me the first word on page 3, the page the button is placed?
What I need to do is run the code and place words on one line until the code hits a keyword "var cKeyWord1 = “Key1” for example?, then insert the value of field one, Start a new line in the console, restart the code where it left off until it hits the next key word "var cKeyWord2 = “Key2”, insert the value of field two, add a new line, and on and on.
Is this possible?

Link to query Form and auto-execute

What is the secret after creating a link from a report for example, to not only pass the link parameter to a query form, but to cause the form to execute the query.
Currently my query form shows the passed parameter but doesn't auto-execute..

This is exactly the same question I have and there are lots of similar questions in this forum. None of them have replies. Is this question still unanswerable?

Timesheet entry form that auto-fills the Date ranges?

I currently have a ColdFusion form & need to add a "Week Selector" drop-down above my table so that:
- when the week is chosen from the drop-down, (how do I generate these weeks drop-down values?)
- the correct dates are added to the date fields in the form.. (how do I populate the text boxes?)
- Once the user chooses the week, the Sun-Sat dates update, he then enters his time for each day..
--Choose Week-->Nov 3 thru Nov 9<-- (drop-down)
Sun---Mon---Tue---Wed---Thu---Fri---Sat (static labels)
11/03 11/04 11/05 11/06 11/07 11/08 11/09 (text boxes for dynamic dates)
0 8 8 8 8 8 (text boxes for hours entry)
Here is a sample picture of what I'm trying to roughly duplicate:
Note: This UDF post by Ben Nadel looks promising: http://www.bennadel.com/blog/719-Ask-Ben-Getting-The-Date-Based-On-The-Year-And-Week-In-Co ldFusion.htm

Ok, here is my current page so far:
- Using this jq weekly calendar: http://jsfiddle.net/manishma/AVZJh/light/ I'm able to select the week and have it update my "Start thru End" dates text boxes.
- But how do I update the javascript (code below) to also "populate" the weekday column headings (highlighted in yellow) with the mm/dd?
- Lastly, I'm not sure how to do the SQL INSERT across three rows of data (highlighted in yellow)?
Here is my updated code to fill in the labels with the dates:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
var startDate;
var endDate;
var monDate;
var tueDate;
var wedDate;
var thuDate;
var friDate;
var satDate;
var sunDate;
var selectCurrentWeek = function() {
    window.setTimeout(function () {
        $('.week-picker').find('.ui-datepicker-current-day a').addClass('ui-state-active')
    }, 1);
$('.week-picker').datepicker( {
    showOtherMonths: true,
    selectOtherMonths: true,
    dateFormat: "mm/dd",
    firstDay: 1, // Start with Monday
    onSelect: function(dateText, inst) {
        var date = $(this).datepicker('getDate');
        startDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 1);
        endDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 7);
        monDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 1);
        tueDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 2);
        wedDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 3);
        thuDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 4);
        friDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 5);
        satDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 6);
        sunDate = new Date(date.getFullYear(), date.getMonth(), date.getDate() - date.getDay() + 7);
        var dateFormat = inst.settings.dateFormat || $.datepicker._defaults.dateFormat;
        $('#startDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, startDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#endDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, endDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#monDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, monDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#tueDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, tueDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#wedDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, wedDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#thuDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, thuDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#friDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, friDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#satDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, satDate, inst.settings ));
        $('#sunDate').val($.datepicker.formatDate( dateFormat, sunDate, inst.settings ));
        selectCurrentWeek();
    beforeShowDay: function(date) {
        var cssClass = '';
        if(date >= startDate && date <= endDate)
            cssClass = 'ui-datepicker-current-day';
        return [true, cssClass];
    onChangeMonthYear: function(year, month, inst) {
        selectCurrentWeek();
$('.week-picker .ui-datepicker-calendar tr').live('mousemove', function() { $(this).find('td a').addClass('ui-state-hover'); });
$('.week-picker .ui-datepicker-calendar tr').live('mouseleave', function() { $(this).find('td a').removeClass('ui-state-hover'); });
</script>
And then in my HTML page I used:

Taking an Outlook email and auto-filling into Sharepoint List

I am trying to figure out a way to set up a rule in my outlook that when certain emails come into outlook, it auto populate a partially filled out workflow into Sharepoint 2010. Is this even possible? If so what would be the best way to make this
happen? Thank you!

Hi,
From your description, you would like workflow on SharePoint side to be triggered by new coming emails in Outlook(on Exchange side).
As workaround, you could create inbox rule for receiving messages and forward them to SharePoint list which has incoming email feature configured. Then create workflow and associate it with items in this list.

Is it possible that auto complete and auto fill are no longer functioning? If so, how can I revert to my previous Firefox version that did offer these invaluable tools?

Believe my question says it all.

What leads you to believe that autocomplete is no longer working? What do you see, what did you expect to see. Try to avoid creating guessing games.
Do you have history going back for a long time, and from recent previous sessions. Check History ("Ctrl+Shift+H").
The Awesomebar is dependent of having history and bookmarks to work with
http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/4928/clearcachew.png
Everything encircled in blue would prevent the AwesomeBar (Location bar autocomplete) from working. Also make sure you are not clearing your "Form & Search History" for your second problem.
Make sure you are not in Private Browsing.
You can make Firefox 4.0.1 look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

'worksheet' issues- page breaks and auto fills

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have tried to figure out these issues by searching through the forums and I am just running out of time. I am completely self taught- and I have been only using the designer for about a month, so that should give you a good understanding of how out of my depth I am.
I am having 2 issues that are 'must fix':
1. I have text boxes on the first subform that autofill on the master page, content area. However, the autofil only seems to appear on the first page and not on subsequent pages (but other items on the master page do appear on subsequent pages).
2. I would like (and I don't know if this is possible) to seperate my subforms onto seperate pages- yet allow the subforms to flow when content area grows due to user input. At the very least, I would like to put them on seperate pages.
Also, does anyone know how to eliminate the "warning:javascript" window from the information boxes? I worry that the warning may throw off the users.

Hi Liz,
I have found what is not working for your masterpages textboxes.
For each textbox in the table inside the masterpage you have to change the data binding
Click on textbox ► Object Palette ► Binding tab ► Data Binding (Open, Save, Submit) ► Choose: Use global data
Now the information in these textbox should be shown on each pages.
If there is some tables which you consider them not at the right place in the form because of the breaking content, you can always decide if it should follow the next or previous object in the hierarchy.
By clicking on a table, you can access the tab Pagination in the Object Palette. By checking Keep with Next or Previous, you specify which way the table should be placed.
Hope this helps!!

Strange problem with auto-fill addresses in mail and address book

There's an entry in my address book (version 4.0.6) that keeps adding a first name to an entry. I keep deleting it and somehow the first name keeps getting added. I suspected that Mail (2.1.3) was using auto-fill or LDAP to take the name it remembered in Mail and put it in Address Book by associating the email address, so I turned off LDAP and auto-fill and the problem still persists.
As an aside, I use mobileme to sync two macs (Address Book) and a pc (Outlook) so I really want to clear up this problem so the phantom entry does not keep getting transfered to all databases.
Should I delete some cache or something? One other problem (unsure if it's related) is that my Mail application always ask for my keychain password on startup - I have tried the keychain repair app and it seemed to work once, though this problem persists, as well.
Thank you in advance!

Yes. the dot in front makes it invisible.
Show hidden files...
Open the terminal and type or copy/paste:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true
Reverting to the default of NOT showing hidden files:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false
Reboot or Force Finder quit needed for either change to show.
I'd move them both to the Desktop then reboot, if it works fine then you can Trash them.

Auto filling forms based off of previously entered data.

Looking for a way to create a feild that will auto fill based on previously entered data. For example.
First________
Middle_______
Last_________
Ideally i could take someones names they enter and auto fill a feild for Last, First, Middle or even a Last, First, Middle Initial.
any thoughts??
Thanks!

Played around with this today...been very busy with other work and got this to work for Last, First mi
// Get the field values, as strings
var i = this.getField("first").valueAsString;
var j = this.getField("middle").valueAsString;
var k = this.getField("last").valueAsString;
// Set this field's value if both fields are not blank
// otherwise, set this field to blank
if (i && j && k) {
event.value = k + ", " + i + " " + j.slice(0, 1);
} else {
event.value = "";
I am brand new to this and was curious are these "var i , j, and k" just for this field. Or will these continue to be how I refer to the first , middle and last fields?
Also, other than just playing around with this, is there another way to learn this stuff? I find it fascinating.
all the best
