HELP WITH A FORM

Ok here is the problem,
I am trying to make a form in my existing fla document and
the form will not function.
I have created the form and used the exact same php script in
a seperate flash movie and the form worked fine but I can not get
it to work in my existing fla.
I would reall appreciate any help with this issue.....
I need my file
(download my file at
http://66.70.213.43/testsite/main3.fla
to have a working email submission form.
this file has no working form on it now and the existing form
can be modified but I would like to keep the submit and the reset
buttons as is if possable.
I would like to use the php email style that is in the lesson
on gotoandlearn.com ( the lesson is listed as sending mail with php
but I am willing to accept other methods if needed.
The Movie clip symbol of the actual form with the submit and
reset button is call P5_s7
The Movie clip symbol of the page which contains the form is
called PAGE 5
I will edit the php and the flash script after you send the
file to me to reflect the email addresses that I want to use so for
testing purposes you can use any email that you want.
I would really appreciate it if someone with more flash
experience could help me out and post a working copy of my file and
the php script that the form links to so that I could re download
then.
Thank you in advance
Please note that there may be some $$$ in it for you if you
can help me.......

Don't think you're going to find anyone here who will just be
willing to do the work for you. You might want to check out the
Flash and PHP Integration sample file that comes with Flash 8 for
some pointers on how to get this started.
If you have specific questions later, write back! Good luck!

Help with PDF form responses

Hey there!
I have two issues with online form data collection and am completely stumped. It's a real struggle to find useful documentation for Acrobat forms!
#1 - I have created a form uploaded it to Acrobat.com, and have been able to collect test form data. In the local responses portfolio, I'm able to use the 'Update' button to bring the latest form data into the portfolio. But I would like to have a colleague be responsible for monitoring the form data and we're running into problems. He's able to open the portfolio and has full access, however the 'Update' button is greyed out so he is unable to bring in new form data. We've already updated his 'Acrobat.com' username/password in Acrobat preferences to match mine, but still no luck. Any help?
#2 - Some computers are having issues with electronic submission. My best guess is that this is to do with Acrobat versions, as the issues all seem to come from computers where the form is completed using Acrobat Reader 8. The form was created with Pro 9, and form submission works for both Pro 9 and also Reader 9. Is there something I can do here? (And yes I know that it's a free upgrade to 9, but 8 is still in the official build for our organisation and I don't really have time to wait for them to complete an upgrade!)
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Hello Paul,
Thank you for your reply.
I use Ipower for my hosting. I see they use sendmail and the path on the server is - /usr/sbin/sendmail. Would this work?
The way I would like this to work would be:
1) I e-mail the PDF form to the client
2) Client opens and fills in the form
3) They hit submit and the form information eventually gets e-mailed to my business e-mail
I chose to use the HTTP method instead of e-mail because the PDF form says it can not be saved and if the client uses an internet beased e-mail like Yahoo it gets kind of messy.
But, does the HTTP delivery method make it more difficult since this is not embedded in a website?
Sorry, I did not realise this would be as involved as it is. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Livecycle design 8 Help with PDF forms

I am new to Livecycle 8. I have created a simple PDF form in Livecycle 8 which was orignally an excel form. I set it up with a submit button to submit by email to a designated person. The form is housed on an internal web site for viewers with adobe reader to open and fill out and then submit by email. The goal is for the designated receiver to receive the the same PDF form with the information filled out by the previous viewer. I was successful with the form being emailed to the designated person as long as the peson submitting the form was using adobe professional. If the viewer only has adobe reader, the form would not submit to the designated receiver. Please help?

Reader does not allow a local save of the form and data by default. To be able to add the attachment o an email message a local save must occur. You can Reader Extend your form to allow for this. Open th eform in Acrobat Pro. Under the Advanced menu choose the "Extend Features in Adobe Reader". Follow the wizard and save the result PDF as a different name ....I like to put RE in the name so I know it is Reader Extended. Try the new file.

Help With Registration Form

Hi
I have created a registration form, where on the first page
the user enters a user name and password, then they go to the next
page where they enter their name. This then goes to the next page
where they enter their address, then there contact details.
But I want all these details to go on to a page where they
can review their details, then press a submit button which inserts
the data into a mysql db.
But I need help with how I do this?
I have created the following Java script in the body. Or
should it be in the header? Or on another form? to insert their
details:-
<% Insert Data %>
<jrun:sql datasrc="regift">
INSERT INTO account VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("User_Name").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Password").trim() %>',
INSERT INTO name VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("First_Name").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Last_Name").trim() %>'
INSERT INTO address VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("House_Number").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Street").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Town").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("County").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Postcode").trim() %>'
INSERT INTO contact_details VALUES ('<%=
request.getParameter("Email_Address").trim() %>',
'<%= request.getParameter("Telephone_Number").trim()
%>'
</jrun:sql>
Is this correct?
Thanks for all your help, Lou.

Your code is correct only for the first page. What you need
to do after the
initial record is entered is grab its ID and then on
subsequent pages you
would use and UPDATE sql statement

Help with Parameter Form

Hello, I have a somewhat complicated Report and I am hoping that I can create the Parameter Form in Reports (I would rather not use Forms because I don't know it as well)
Here's my problem:
Right now I have 2 fields that I need help with.
The first one is called "Report Name" and I have it coded to a bind variable that will search for a series of "work units" such as 02% or 03%
This works as coded, the problem comes with the other "Work Unit" field. What I have right now is a LOV that queries for work units that start in either 02 or 03. This variable will narrow down the report findings to the specific work unit selected. What I want is for this list to be dependant on what the user choses for report name.
For example if the user choses ReportName1 the report query finds work units with 02%, but the "work unit" field still displays the list of work units 02% and 03% and the user must know to only chose the certain work units for the specific "Report Name" selected.
If there is a way to somehow have the "Work Unit" field be dependant on the "Report Name" field please give me soem ideas of how to do it.

Thats what I was worried about.
Well I have been trying to learn forms for some time now but I can't quite get the hang of it yet.
I don't really have anyone who knows it here, so I'm kind of learning on my own.
Thanks for the response.

Help with Login Form (JSP DB Java Beans Session Tracking)

Hi, I need some help with my login form.
The design of my authetication system is as follows.
1. Login.jsp sends login details to validation.jsp.
2. Validation.jsp queries a DB against the parameters received.
3. If the query result is good, I retrieve some information (login id, name, etc.) from the DB and store it into a Java Bean.
4. The bean itself is referenced with the current session.
5. Once all that's done, validation.jsp forwards to main.jsp.
6. As a means to maintain state, I prefer to use url encoding instead of cookies for obvious reasons.I need some help from step 3 onwards please! Some code snippets will do as well!
If you think this approach is not a good practice, pls let me know and advice on better practices!
Thanks a lot!

Alright,here is an example for you.
Assume a case where you don't want to give access to any JSP View/HTML Page/Servlet/Backing Bean unless user logging system and let assume you are creating a View Object with the name.
checkout an example (Assuming the filter is being applied to a pattern * which means when a resource is been accessed by webapplication using APP_URL the filter would be called)
public doFilter(ServletRequest req,ServletResponse res,FilterChain chain){
     if(req instanceof HttpServletRequest){
            HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) req;
            HttpSession session = request.getSession();
            String username = request.getParameter("username");
            String password = request.getParameter("password");
            String method = request.getMethod();
            String auth_type = request.getAuthType();
            if(session.getAttribute("useInfoBean") != null)
                request.getRequestDispatcher("/dashBoard").forward(req,res);
            else{
                    if(username != null && password != null && method.equaIsgnoreCase("POST") && (auth_type.equalsIgnoreCase("FORM_AUTH") || auth_type.equalsIgnoreCase("CLIENT_CERT_AUTH")) )
                         chain.doFilter(req,res);
                    else
                      request.getRequestDispatcher("/Login.jsp").forward(req,res);
}If carefully look at the code the autherization is given only if either user is already logged in or making an attempt to login in secured way.

Help with web form script. PHP, CGI, Perl???

anyone willing to help with a web form script? I have a form built, but cant seem to figure out the scripting! Should I be using Perl, CGI, PHP... What do I need to enable? I am a complete novice when it comes to scripts. Looking for a little friendly help.

Here is a simple bit of PHP to stick in the page your form posts to. You would need to edit the first three variables to your liking, and add the html you want to serve afterwards:
<pre>
<?php
$emailFrom = '[email protected]';
$emailTo = '[email protected]';
$emailSubject = 'Subject';
$date = date('l, \t\h\e dS \o\f F, Y \a\t g:i A');
$browser = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['HTTP_USERAGENT'];
$hostname = $HTTPSERVER_VARS['REMOTEADDR'];
$message = "$date\n\nAddress: $hostname\nBrowser: $browser\n\n";
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$message .= $key . ": " . $value . "\n";
$mailResult = mail($emailTo,$emailSubject,$message,"From: $emailFrom");
?>
</pre>
This script will grab the server's date and the submitter's address and browser type. It will then list the name and value of each form field you have put on your form.
Also, this script expects your form method="post".
Lastly, you can offer alternate text later on in your html page based on the success of the above script with a snippet like this:
<pre><?php
if ($mailResult) {
echo "Your comments have been received thank you.";
} else {
echo "There was an error. Please try again or contact us using an alternate method.";
?></pre>

Help with Scripting forms when additional characters added

Hi,
I am new to scripting in adobe professional, I thank anyone in advance for any advice or help they can give me.
I am trying to use the calcuations within the forms that I am putting fields onto. In the process I discovered that the program the forms are within are attaching a pipe and additional characters after the actual name that I have named them. So, I am not able to use even the simple calculations within adobe to "sum" fields.   For example: I named the field "1_1Text" and this is what displays when you go into the calculations and pick the fields you want. But the actual name is "1_1Text|1234567" so the calculations will not work.
I take it then I need to use the advanced scripting but I am unsure of the format for a routine such as this. I have a little knowledge of javascript but it has been awhile. There must be a scan to find the pipe and then you should be able to chop off the extra characters since I will never know the characters the program adds on so then I can do calculations on these fields. Then you would have to put them into an array or something to save them?   Any help with a script or hints would surely be appreciated.
Thanks!

Could explain more fully how you are creating your forms and what programs you are using from the creation of the base document to which program and how you are adding fields.
I think you are misunderstanding me.   I use Adobe Acrobat Professional 6.0. I can get the calculations to work correctly if I use the form as it is after creating it.
But these forms are put into an SQL database and they get selected within a VB.net program or ASP.net program (both are used). So these programs (VB.net or ASP.net) are adding the extra characters at the end, hence I do not know the names of the fields when the forms are being filled in. So the calculations do not work with the "original names" that I created for the fields.
I just figured if I created a routine that looped through and chopped off the extra characters these programs put on the end I would be able to do the calcuations and they would work. I believe there is a substring operation within javascript.

Help with contact form

Hi,
there is a contact form on my site and it works to submit a message, but it always has my name as sender in it and my email adress to reply to!
This is a form where customers are booking appointments, the shop always thinks that the emails are coming from me!
I checked site manager - system emails - but what am I supposed to put in as from email? It should use the customers email, which will change all the time.
I need help with that fast!
Thanks in advance
cheers
Cat

Hello Cat
The "From" email is the email that will be displayed as the sender of the email (although the email is always sent from our servers), so it is not the customer's email address. You can set it to any email address, that can be your client's email address too, so when a reply is sent, the reply would be sent to the client. This is about the email that is sent to the visitors of the site, also known as the "Autoresponder" email.

Help with Custom Forms Report

Hi there,
I recently created a new custom web form in BC that appears to be working fine.
My problem is that when I go to custom reports, in filter criteria I can't see my new form under the 'Custom CRM Form Filter'. All my other forms are appearing here however.
Am I just missing one small step?
Thanks for the help!

Yor form must not have any custom fields, which is why it isn't in that
dropdown. You can use the case subject to filter the cases where the case
subject is the webform name.
Cheers,

Help with exporting forms based data to Excel 2007

I have a user who is attempting to export forms based data to Microsoft Excel 2007 and when he attempts this he receives a message stating that Windows does not recognise this file type (tsv). I am not too familiar with Office 2007 so I am unable to direct this users as to how to correct this issue.
Is someone able to give me the navigation path to help me to assist this user? thanks

Did you verify the file type from Windows Explorer?
1) Right click on My Computer > Explore
2) Go to Tools > Folder Options
3) Click on File Types tab
4) Check if TSV file is defined there or not. If it is not there, click on New and add the File Extension

Hi guys,

</form>
By the way, the date boxes work so excuse the Javascript in there!
To prevent SPAM I've used a trick where there's a hidden URL field which must be left blank for the form to submit which you can see in the PHP.
Below is where I'm at with the PHP which is placed above the header of contact.php...
<?php
if (array_key_exists('submit', $_POST)) {
    $position = $_POST['position'];
    $arrive = $_POST['arrive'];
    $nationality = $_POST['nationality'];
    $parttime = $_POST['parttime'];
    $depart = $_POST['depart'];
    $name = $_POST['name'];
    $email = $_POST['email'];
    $telephone = $_POST['telephone'];
$to = "[email protected]";
$subject = "Recruitment Application";
$message = $headers;
$message .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
$message .= "E-mail: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: My Website <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
$message= "
$url = stripslashes($_POST["url"]);
if (!empty($url)) {
header( 'Location: http://www.go-away-spam-robots.com' );
exit();
if (!isset($warning)) {
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
header( 'Location: http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/sent.php' );
?>
I would like to make pretty much all the field compulsory so if a field is left empty (other than the hidden URL field), a warning message is displayed next to that field.
Also I would like the file upload field to attach to the email that is sent to me and have the results come through to me in a table format.
Can anyone help me get my form working?
Thank you and I hope to hear from you!
SM

Hi Nancy,
Great stuff, thank you for the reply.
I've managed to get the Formm@iler working and running as I need it to.
The only thing I'm struggling with is when the user clicks submit, they are taken to a page of whatever results the form returned but it is just a white background with Times New Roman text.
How can I have it so the user is taken to the form results in the websites' page layout?
I tried sending them to a generic 'thank you' page by adding the following code but it just took them there whatever the results of the form so that's no good...! I have a feeling it's a bit more complicated than that...
header( 'Location: http://www.nofussbus.co.uk/test/sent.php' );
Thank you for your help!

Help with PDF Form Submission

Hello,
I am using Live Cycle for the first time. I have designed a PDF form that my clients will fill out and then send back to me.
I have a website and thought submitting the form via http would be best but am having a problem with knowing the correct URL an then the server authentication.
When I try to submit now I get an authorization error.
Here is the URL I used in LiveCycle - http://watchmymvp.com/profilesubmissions
This is to a folder a created on the server.
How do I set this up?
Thanks

Help with pdf forms

Hello all,
I need help desperately! Ok. so, I created a for from an existing document (PDF) on a mac computer. I did a test to see what would happen from the receiving end. When I distribute the form, the client receives it and fills in the blanks with type. WHenever they type a multiple line of text, the text becomes jumbled. I am running out of time and need to get this form to my client asap. Has anyone ever experienced this? If so, whast did you do to fix the problem?
Thanks
