Handling HTTP form data

Hi,
I am really struggling with HTTP data submission from a LiveCycle form.
There seems to be loads of code samples for ColdFusion, but nothing for ASP/ASP.net - all I am looking to do is submit the data, post a response back to the user confirming it has been received and save the posted data to a DB.
I have used the standard request command, but when I post the form I am just getting a general error.
Can anyone help with some code snippets that will get me going on this?
Many thanks in advance.
Gareth

We have a separate forum for Designer. Please repost in the LiveCycle Designer forum.

  • Extension type for mime-type "multipart/form-data"

              Hello:
              If I want to register a mime-type of type "multipart/form-data" in WebLogic 6.0
              what, if any, extension should I specify fot it in the web.xml? Is it necessary
              to specify this mime-type for handling "multipart/form-data" type http requests?
              Thanks
              John
              

    You cannot use request.getParameter() for Multipart/form-data.
              You need to Use getInputStream and use the InputStream to read data.
              Please Refer Jeason Hunters Implementation for the same. Its a very good example.

  • Hi, I am using HP11 and iPlanet web server. When trying to upload files over HTTP using FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" that are bigger than a few Kilobytes i get a 408 error. (client timeout).

    Hi, I am using HP11 and iPlanet web server. When trying to upload files over HTTP using FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" that are bigger than a few Kilobytes i get a 408 error. (client timeout). It is as if the server has decided that the client has timed out during the file upload. The default setting is 30 seconds for AcceptTimeout in the magnus.conf file. This should be ample to get the file across, even increasing this to 2 minutes just produces the same error after 2 minutes. Any help appreciated. Apologies if this is not the correct forum for this, I couldn't see one for iPlanet and Web, many thanks, Kieran.

    Hi,
    You didnt mention which version of IWS. follow these steps.
    (1)Goto Web Server Administration Server, select the server you want to manage.
    (2)Select Preference >> Perfomance Tuning.
    (3)set HTTP Persistent Connection Timeout to your choice (eg 180 sec for three minutes)
    (4) Apply changes and restart the server.
    *Setting the timeout to a lower value, however, may    prevent the transfer of large files as timeout does not refer to the time that the connection has been idle. For example, if you are using a 2400 baud modem, and the request timeout is set to 180 seconds, then the maximum file size that can be transferred before   the connection is closed is 432000 bits (2400 multiplied by 180)

  • Xml forms - Error handling HTTP request

    Hello,
    We have installed portal 6.0
    I've made some forms with the xml form builder, imported them into IViews (KM navigation IView) and assigned the IViews to a role
    The Iview shows the RenderListItem form
    Every Iview (RenderListItem form) has a "new item" button
    Every record of the iview has a edit-delete action
    When I press the "new item" button or the edit button (or save button) I get the following error:
    Error handling HTTP request. Check the log file for more information.

    This error doesn't always appear, there are times that the portal works correct and when I can add items, edit them and save my changes
    Does anyone have an idea where the error comes from? In what direction I have to search? How I can solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance, points will be distributed for helpfull answers

    Hi,
    I didn't place a save button on the RenderListItem but on the Edit form so this couldn't be the issue...
    I solved the error I got when I wanted to save my form
    The edit and delete buttons also work correct...
    I only get the error mentioned above when I press the "new form" button, I created that button with the CreateXMLForms action group that I added in my Collection Grid renderer settings (option collection command group)
    Then I changed my form availibility (System administration ->system configuration ->KM->CM->form based publishing->form availibility->folder settings)
    I created the following folder settings:
    foldername//priority//path//forms to exclude//forms to include
    library//10 //documents/testlibrary//Smarties, QnA,SAP_APP_News//library
    News //10 //documents/News//smarties, library, QnA// SAP_APP_News
    QnA //10 //documents/testQuestionAnswer// SAP_APP_News, smarties, library //QnA
    Smarties //10 /documents/testSmarties
    Did I do something wrong here? What can cause this error? In what direction should I search?

    It is difficult if not impossible to have url and form
    variables in the same template. It sounds like your page 2 form is
    using method="get". If that's the case, change your scope to url
    for all those form variables.

  • Email form data from within Flash

    Hi all,
    I have searched the Interent and written to several forums
    asking this same question however no one either seems to know the
    answer or just does not want to advise me in any way. I have
    however had a few responses however none of them paid off.
    My Question:
    I am in the process of creating a flash website and I am on
    the last little function I wish to provide. I want to create a
    flash contact us form as some people might not have an email client
    set up therefore I don't want to just but a mailto URL in.
    I have built the form and named the input text boxes, and
    believe I have most of the action script complete. I need to know
    how to use Coldfusion to validate the flash form and then send the
    email with the form data in it. As far as I can understand in flash
    I create a LoadVars method which puts all the form data in this and
    when the user click the submit button flash should send the
    loadvars to a CFC or simliar page. This coldfusion page
    (server-side) handles the processing , i.e. validation reports back
    if need be or continues to send the information to a predefined
    email address i.e. [email protected]
    Can some one please help either point me in a direction of a
    tutorial(s) or provide me with an example of what I am trying to
    do. I am currently running Flash 8 and Coldfusion 8 not sure if
    this has any bearing on what I am trying to do. I am not sure if I
    require Flash Remoting or not, however I do remember reading (not
    sure if this is correct) Coldfusion has Flash Remoting integrated.
    I appreciate any help, support or advise anyone can offer on
    this issue. I am keen to get this moving as my project end date is
    fast approaching.

    Hi,
    For sending email there is no need to use remoting...
    please see this link...
    =>
    http://www.sephiroth.it/tutorials/flashPHP/email/
    and if u not able to do it then i'll do it for you... with
    nominal charge of 20$.
    Thanks,

  • Capturing Form Data

    I am very new to Macromedia Coldfusion, I have a user
    registration form and would like to capture / store & for
    debugging purposes echo (print) the form data using a CFscript. The
    form’s name is Registration one of the text fields name is
    FirstName. I am having a problem referencing the value entered into
    the field. My reference is as follows …….
    Registration.FirstName but it isn’t recognized what is the
    correct way to reference form data. Does anyone have a colfusion
    script to capture, store and print form data and a query to store
    it in MySql

    My advise is to buy the ColdFusionMX7 Web Application
    Construction Kit. This will answer all of your questions and
    provide you with a solid understanding of ColdFusion basics to
    include: form handling and database interaction..

  • Problem with transfering unicode form data in MULTIPART/FORM-DATA

    HI experts,
    I have this web based multilingual application. Page 1(form6.jsp) is basic registeration form with 5 fields and one image upload to the server. Page 2(verify.jsp) is another jsp page for verification of UTF data entered in page 1.
    page 2 (verify.jsp) also uses a bean called (verify.java) for picking up values. page 3(insertEntry.jsp) is the page for inserting that data into the Database and uses a bean called (logicbean.java).
    Now, the problem im facing here is that if i use multipart/form-data, the unicode text filled in page1 is shown as garbage when its is transfered to page2 and displayed on page2. It is all gibberish. But if i do not use multipart/form-data, the unicode text transfered from page1 to page2 is displayed perfectly on page2.Im using devenagari(UTF) language for filling in details.
    // form6.jsp
    <%@ page language="java" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
    <%@ page import="java.util.*,java.text.*" %>
    <%@ page import="com.oreilly.servlet.*" %>
    <%
    request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");

  • Multipart/form-data using HTTPService, sending a binary file and some text in the same request.

    Hi There,
             I am new to FLEX and also new to writing a client for a web service.
    My question is more about flex (Flash builder 4.5) APIs, what APIs to use.
    I want to access a web service, that's published here.
    https://build.phonegap.com/docs/write_api
    here is the description of webservice
    ===========
    1) I have to do a post on POST https://build.phonegap.com/api/v1/apps
    2) content type has to be "multipart/form-data"
    3) JSON bodies of requests are expected to have the name 'data'
      data will be someting like this
    'data={"title":"API V1 App","package":"com.alunny.apiv1","version":"0.1.0","create_method":"file"}'
    4) include a zip file in the multipart body of your post, with the parameter name 'file'.
    ===========
    I want to make a 'multipart/form-data' Post and send
    one string and one zip file.
    My first question to self was If i send both string + binary data in the body ...
    how will server understand where string end and where zip file starts?
    Then read on W3.org( http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.2 )
    How is text + binary data can be sent through "multipart/form-data" post requst.
    there has to be some boundries.
    After this I read and example in flex and  tried following it.
    http://codeio.wordpress.com/2010/04/03/5-minutes-on-adobe-flex-mimic-file-upload-for-in-me mory-contents/
    but it doesn't seems to be working for me.

                                  var service:HTTPService = new HTTPService();
                                  service.url = ROOT+"apps";
                                  service.showBusyCursor = true;
                                  service.addEventListener(ResultEvent.RESULT, function(e:ResultEvent):void {
                                            //translate JSON
                                            trace(e.result);
                                            var result:String = e.result.toString();
                                            var data:Object = JSON.parse(result);
                                            cb(data.link);
                                  service.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, defaultFaultHandler); //todo : allow user to add his own as well
                                  authAndUploadNewApp(service,appFile);
                        private function authAndUploadNewApp(service:HTTPService,appFile : File):void {
                                  var encoder:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();
                                  encoder.encode(username + ":"+password);
                                  service.headers = {Accept:"application/json", Authorization:"Basic " + encoder.toString()};
                                  service.method ="POST";
                                  var boundary:String = UIDUtil.createUID();
                                  service.contentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary=—————————" + boundary;
                                  var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
                                  stream.open(appFile, FileMode.READ);
                                  var binaryData:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
                                  var fileData : String = new String();
                                  stream.readBytes(binaryData);
                                  stream.close();
                                  fileData = binaryData.readUTFBytes(binaryData.bytesAvailable); // I think this is where I have problem.... how do
                           //how do i converrt this bytearray/stream of data to string and send it in my post request's body - i guess if this step work rest should work..  
                                  var params: String = new String();
                                  var content:String = "—————————" + boundary + "nr";
                                  content += 'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="data";' + '{"title":"ELS test app 2","package":"com.elsapp.captivate","version":"12.3.09","create_method":"file"}' + "nr";
                                  content += "—————————" + boundary + "nr";
                                  content += 'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file";' + fileData  + "nr";
                                  content += "—————————–" + boundary + "–nr";
                                  service.request = content;
                                  service.send();

    In the past I have used URLVariables with URLRequest and URLLoader to achieve this kind of requirement.
    Check out http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=17_Networking_and_communications_3 .html which should be useful. My preference has always been to use this style instead of HTTPService objects, giving you a little more control which is what you need here.
    Let me know if you need any more assistance.

  • Share form data between PDFs

    I have a series of 26 PDFs that are all different forms to be filled out during a real estate short sale. Each form is unique but there are several pieces of data that need to be repeadidly entered (i.e. client's name is on every single form normally multiple times.) Is there a way that I can connect the form data between each PDF so that when I fill in the data on one form it auto populates the form of the other PDFs?
    I know how to do this within a single PDF (Just name the different fields the same and it copies the contents of that form box to all of the others) but I was hoping to be able to keep these PDFs seperate as normally only about half of the forms are actually needed.
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Why don't you store the user's information in an ACCESS database table, and pre-populate the PDF from the datasource using a 3rd party form tool.
    Tools clients will need:
    Internet access
    PDF Reader
    Tools developer will need:
    iText (PHP/JAVA), iTextSharp (.net), or FDFToolkit.net (.net)
    MS Access
    (PHP Editor, Notepad or Visual Studio)
