Help with submit button, signatures and locking fields

https://acrobat.com/#d=sCcToPsLqquP0uePmVL1pQhttp://https://acrobat.com/#d=ZsRL5CeME*4iV3VHnvUFXw
Well here's a doozy for ya. I have no idea what I'm doing as you will be able to see when you look at my form.
What I want to happen is to have the user fill out the form, choose the operations manager and select submit button associated with the drop down box. All other dropdown boxes and submit buttons should be hidden. I need the form to lock so there are no edits except the signature field, the next dropdown box and submit button. I'd like to customize the email with a specific subject line and specify the email address based on the person selected from the drop down box. I'd like this to repeat itself until there are no more signature fields left. It is very important that this document follow the order specified.
I tried to use an example Niall put out there to use regular buttons as submit buttons with script. I changed a couple things and it worked to submit the form based on the person selected but I still do not know how to lock the fields. Long story short, I broke what did work and don't know how to do what I really want to do or fix what had once worked. I don't understand javascript so please, if you're willing to help teach me, be patient and spell it out like i'm speaking a foreign language.
Oh boy, even I don't want to do this. What a mess!

I believe that you should re-post this in either the Forms or the Designer forum.  You are more likely to get the right folks to look at it there.

  • Need help with Submit button

    I'm needing a script that locks all of the fields once the submit button is pressed and it's emailed to someone else. Is that possible? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Right now I'm using javascript to submit the form. I'm using
         this.mailDoc({
         bUI: true,
         cTo: [email protected],
         cSubject: ""
    So I need to incorporate the script you gave me with this script that I'm already using?

    There are a few fields I want to be place in the body of the e-mail, but if left blank I dont want null to apear on the email subject or body.
    Here is what I have so far *this is a work around I like to konw the proper code.
    var 
    strToAddress, strCCAddress, strSubject, strMessagestrToAddress
    = myemail@atwork;strCCAddress
    = myemail@atwork;
    strSubject
    = "Account "+DropDownList1.rawValue+" For: " +last.rawValue +", " +first.rawValue +" " +mi.rawValue;
    if 
    (mi.rawValue ==null || mi.rawValue =="")strSubject = "Account "+DropDownList1.rawValue+" For: " +last.rawValue +", " +first.rawValue;

    The 4 fields am working on are First name, last name, Mi and comments.  First and last are alwasy used, but if MI is not I dont want Null in there, with what I have above it works but its messy.  I wanted to do the same with Comments if its left blank I like for it to read "Comments: None" not null

  • Php sql image editor - help with submit buttons!

    Hi,
    I have recently setup a website for my real-estate company, with a makeshift CMS behind it for my staff to use when updating properties.
    I have a slideshow on my site for each property, which is populated through sql blobs (I know alot of people dont think this is the best method but I have managed to get it working so I am happy with it!).
    Assuming the database has 4 fields - id, image1, image2, and image3 - I have managed to build separate pages to edit image1, image2 or image3 based on the id as per:
    <?php
    $db_host = 'xx'; 
    $db_user = 'xx';
    $db_pwd = 'xx';
    $database = 'xx';
    $id=$_GET['id'];
    ?>
    <?php
    if (!mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pwd))
        die("Can't connect to database");
    if (!mysql_select_db($database))
        die("Can't select database");  
    function sql_safe($s)
        if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
            $s = stripslashes($s);
        return mysql_real_escape_string($s);
    if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')
              if (!isset($msg))
                    $data = file_get_contents($_FILES['photo']['tmp_name']);
                    $data = mysql_real_escape_string($data);
                    mysql_query("UPDATE slideshow SET image1='$data' WHERE id='$id'");
                    $msg = 'Success: image uploaded';
            ?>
    <html><head>
    <title>Slideshow Images</title>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/plain; charset=utf-8" />
    </head>
    <body>
    <table width="974" border="1">
        <tr>
          <td width="158"><img src="ss/show_slideshow1.php?id=<?php echo $id ?>" alt="Image1"></td>
          <td><?php
    if (isset($msg))
    ?><?=$msg?><?php
    ?>
    </td>
    <td width="664"><form action="<?=$PHP_SELF?>" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="photo" id="photo">
    <input type="submit" value="upload">
    </form></td></tr></table>
    The above code will display image1, and let me edit it using a simple submit button.
    What I am trying to do though, it to get all the images for the property where id ='$id' on one page with respective edit buttons. I can display them all on the same page easily, but cannot seem to crack the UPDATE form for each image.
    Appreciate any advice or help in solving this!!
    Thanks
    Jack

    Your code has been been copied to the end of the style rules.. not the rest of the html.
    It would actually be better if you could provide a link to the live site, it's always much better for troubleshooting purposes to see the live page.
    Can you do that?

  • Help with submit button on PDF form

    I created a form via the Forms Central desktop app then saved it as a PDF to my desktop.  When opening in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, I noticed that I am unable to include a submit button - it does not let me edit the PDF.  I've tried going back into Forms Central and adding a submit button, but that feature is not available anywhere.  Any suggestions?
    PS - My preference is to have the responses returned to me, not my Forms Central account.
    Thanks so much.

    Hi;
    OK - I can clarify some things and tell you how to do what your looking for. 
    The desktop FormsCentral application tools are really designed towards create forms that do collect data on FormsCentral servers.  You can still easily create PDFs that do not submit data to FormsCentral, but you'll have to add any alternative submit functionality using the Forms tools in Acrobat.  You can create a PDF without the submit button in either case, signed in/out of the Desktop Application from the "File" - "Save as PDF Form" menu item.  You can then modify the PDF in Acrobat XI Pro by doing a "Save A Copy", when you open the copy you can edit it any way you like, adding a "Submit" button that email's the PDF/Responses back to you...
    Here's how: In Acrobat open the PDF you saved from the FormsCentral Desktop application and go to "File" - "Save a Copy" and choose a location, this will remove the security.  Open up the copy you just created and you can now edit it, here is a YouTube video tutorial using Acrobat XI, he covers the email button in about two minutes, there are lots of tutorials out there but this one is easy to follow:,

  • Create Multiple Signature and Date fields with a custom Toolbar Button

    First off, thanks in advance!  I am a scripting newbie and I am trudging my way through with very little experience with scripting of any kind.  I am good at taking other's scripts and forming them into something I need, but I can't seem to find anything to do what I want.
    Using Adobe Acrobat X, I am trying to create a toolbar button that I can press to create multiple signature and date fields with predetermined locations.
    Below is the script I have that is working to create just a single signature box, but I can't seem to figure out the exact syntax to have that same button create multiple fields.  In total it is 9 signature fields and 9 date fields need to be created.  If you can just give me an example of what the button would look like with multiple scripts?  I was assuming I would set up multiple variables and then in the cExec property of the toolbar button I could just call out all of those variables? 
    var sigswm = "addField('sigSWM', 'signature', '0', [108, 198, 494.64, 72])"
    app.addToolButton({cName: "dotbutton", cExec: sigswm, cLabel: "Place Signature and Date Blocks",});
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
    Billy Sweeney

    Thanks!  That was probably the only thing I didn't try.
    I do have one more question.  What I want is when the signature field is clicked it fills out a specific date field. I beleive the script I want would be:
    var currentTime = new Date()
        var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
        var day = currentTime.getDate()
        var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
        var signingTime = day +"/"+month+"/"+year
        var f = this.getField("dateSWM"); 
        f.value = signingTime;
    I found this on another thread that mentioned it could be placed in the Signed tab of the signature properties dialog.  I am assuming it would be placed in my button script file as a setAction script for each signature, but I am not real sure exactly where or how?

    I was online earlier this week and liked the forms with submit buttons and the Adobe site directed me to upgrade to Adobe PRO XI in order to use forms so I bought five licenses. Just had it installed today and it is now asking me to sign up for forms Central in order to use this feature. What gives? The Adobe site gave me the impression that I would have this feature after purchasing the new upgrade. I would not have purchased the upgrade, let alone five of them had I know this. Am I missing something?

    Acrobat XI comes with the Fromscentral AIR application and the ability to create PDF forms authored in Formscentral. To have more than the free (1 form with 50 responses) level account you need to sign up for a Formscentral subscription.

  • I have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.

    Hi All,
    i have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.
    Now, i open the form  fill it and attach some files, when i press submit button, that attachments will go to the particular document library.
    Can any one help me out.
    Thanks in Advance!

    Hi Anil,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the attachments attached to the form were submitted to an documents library.
    By default, the attachments should be attached with the InfoPath form and will not be submitted anywhere.
    There may be some customizations on the form that is to submit the attachments to the document library.
    Please check the links below if the customizations are made in the form.

  • Associating two events with submit button using  javascript in jsp

    Hi
    How can i Associate two events with submit button using javascript in jsp. Firstly it should insert the data to database and secondly it should close the same pop-up window

    Have something like :
    <input type="submit" name="submitbtn" value="Click me" onClick="function1(); function2(); " />
    You just call both functions sequentially, it's that simple. Although using javascript to work with a database, that seems a bit tricky.

    you can't use the button itself if you want to maintain the
    DOWN state after
    release as button automatically resets itself once the mouse
    lives the HIT zone.
    Use movie clip instead and on press simply send it to a frame
    where there
    is DOWN state like image.

  • Help with linking buttons to Scenes

    Hey,
    Rookie to Flash and AS3. Just needed some help with my buttons. Im making a flash program about pancakes (random I know). I have a "Mainmenu" scene and then a "Recipe" scene. I have a button on my mainmenu which takes me to the recipe page when I click it, the code behind the button is
    "stop();btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe");
    Then when I arrive at my recipe page I have a button which will take me back to my MainMenu, the code behind that button is:
    "stop();btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouse5DownHandler);function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu");
    So I run my program and the first button works and takes me to recipe page but the button to get to the main menu does nothing, click it and no response or anything
    Please help

    First, hopefully having all your code mushed onto the same line is a copy/paste error, otherwise it should look like...
    stop();
    btn_recipe.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, mouseDownHandler);
    function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
         gotoAndStop(1, "Recipe");
    If the intention is to click the buttons to make them work, then you should use CLICK instead of MOUSE_DOWN.  MOUSE_DOWN can be a persistent state whereas CLICK involves releasing it afterwards.
    As for the code to get you back home, where is it located on the timeline?  Are you getting any error messages when you try to use it?
    One thing you should learn to use is the trace() function.  It is useful for troubleshooting.  You can use it now to see if your second button is talking to the function at all...
    stop();
    btn_home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, mouse5DownHandler);
    function mouse5DownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
         trace("the button works okay");
         gotoAndPlay(1, "MainMenu");
    If you don't get that message in the output panel, you'll know the button is not properly coded to work.
    Most folks here will recommend you get away from using scenes in a design that includes navigation--they have a history of being problematic.  Instead of using scenes, divide the one main timeline up into sections or use movieclips for the sections and manage their visibility... or do a bit of both.

  • Help with opening Adobe Reader and downloading updates

    I can not open Adobe .pdf files any longer (this started yesterday, prior to that I could open adobe files).
    When I double click a .pdf file I get this notice on my screen: Windows cannot access the specified device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access file.
    So I went to the Adobe download site to download a new copy of Adobe.  When I start the download I get this on the screen:  The instruction at "0x0e3a0068" referenced memory at "0x0e3a0068."  The memory could not be written.  Then two options are listed: click OK to terminate or cancel to debug.  So I click on cancel and I get this on my screen: Internet Explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer.   A malfunctioning or malicious addon has caused I.E. to close this webpage.
    I don't have AVG running, I do have avast but I've disabled it.  I ran Registry Mechanic and an I.E. erasure program but nothing helps.
    I have gone into I.E. and reduced the security level to its lowest state but no joy.
    So, any ideas or suggestions on what's the problem and how to overcome it would be appreciated.  Thanks, in advance, for your reply.  Jim R.

    Hi Mike..tried that as well but no joy.  A friend of mine was looking at it all and noticed that it was an I.E. thing as far as not letting me redownload the reader so I went to Mozilla Firefox and I could download a new version but....whenever I attempt to open a .pdf file I get that message, "Windows can not open the specified device, path or file. You man not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." 
    Damn...this is irritating as I need to get to some of thos files as I need them for a Journal I'm working on as editor-in-chief. 
    It all worked just fine last Saturday but starting Monday when I was on my flight out to D.C.  no joy.

    Every now and then, a weird white box with a keyhole, gear, and lock pops up in the upper left of my screen. I can't seem to close it or move it, and when I try to use another application, it stays there and blocks features. The only way I've found to make it go away is by force closing Firefox.Why does it pop up and how do I close it? I'm on an iMac, Snow Leopard. Have the latest version of Firefox, 10.0.2.
