Just a thought, but shouldn't you be calling "verify()" instead of "SUBMITTED()" in your onClick handler? And warnerja is right, javascript is not really java.

Need help writing a Java rule in PDF Forms

I have created an invoice for my contractors via "forms", and in turn made each cell either a drop down list or "read only" field so they cannot change the rate of pay, etc. Here is my issue...My first drop down cell is titled "Job Description". When the contractor selects one of the 8 dropdown options within the Job Description field, I would like it to automatically fill in the hourly rate that is associated with that particular job description (or skill). I currently have my "rate" cell as a drop down, and I want to make that a read only, and when you select the A1 position from Job Description, it will populate the "rate" field with the appropriate amount for that A1 rate. I believe this can be done with writing some Java script, but I have never played with Java and I don't really have the time to teach myself. If anyone can help with me a quick tutorial, or even the formula I should use, so that I can just plug and play, that would be super helpful. If this is a time consuming issue, I would be interested in paying someone to do it for me. Thank you!

Hi George,
I was able to copy my data over to a fresh document, and now it works just fine....thank you so much for your insight and help!
I have another question if you have a moment.
I am trying to do a simple calculation of start time and end time for my employees. Do I need to do this via a javascript, and if so, what area in properties of the result field should I copy it to? for the purpose of the script, the fields are as follows:
DataField1 = start time
DataField2 = end time
DataField3 = total time
I would like to use the h:MM tt format for my time fields if possible.
I've attached a link to the file through my dropbox account, and you'll notice that I created three new fields at the top of the invoice just to test the time calculations before i mock up the whole document.

Help for compiling first Java script

Friends,
I am a begginer java programmer. Iam trying to compile a java script using .bat file which contains
c:\j2sdk\bin\javac -classpath <c:\j2sdk\lib\dt.jar> . ReadOnlyMaker.java
But it comes back with error as below
>c:\j2sdk\bin\javac -classpath ReadOnlyMaker.java 0<c:\j2sdk\lib\dt.jar 1>.
Access is denied.
I have admin rights on this machine but the directory j2sdk , where java is installed, is always staying readonly even after changing permissions in properties tab.
Not sure what is going wrong , Any one can Pl. help ?
Thanks,

First of all you don't need to be in the ..\..\bin directory to execute the javac.exe, java.exe, etc pgms as commands. If not already set up correctly, you can just add this to your System PATH.
Next, start by executing from the directory your .java PGM is in.
Then, what is that <...> stuff?
Lastly, if it's a .java file, it's a pgm file and not a javascript. Javascript goes is only for web work, embedded in html.

How do I get expert help to solve Java Script error in PS?

My Photoshop CC (and previous versions) do not see Java script, therefore any automation functions do not work.
I have been dealing with Adobe support in India since September and have had no resolution. Although they keep saying the case has been escalated, I have yet to talk to anyone who seems to have any understanding past following a check list.
Please help- how do I get in touch with someone who can actually troubleshoot the problem?

I think an extension is the most likely culprit.
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions category
* You might try updating your extensions, in case updates are available. The "gear" icon > Check for Updates is the easiest way
* If no updates are available or the problem persists, try to '''disable''' all nonessential extensions (i.e., all the ones you do not absolutely need to tolerate using Firefox today). Simply click all those Disable buttons and then restart Firefox.
Can you browse for an extended period without seeing the message?

Please help: Running a java script form the windows command line.

Hello forum,
I'm trying to run a java script from the command line on
windows but I always get the "Failed to open document" alert.
I typed the following in the run command line:
"flash.exe" C:\Documents and Settings\Hasan.Atieh\My
Documents\science\java scripts\testing jsfl\get_files_mx2004.jsfl
now I copied and pasted the path of my java script file from
the windows explorer address bar so I'm sure that the java script
file exists in the specified path.
Any thoughts why am I getting the message!!

:oops: never mind... issue resolved. I didn't quote the java
script file path but thats because the help documents on flash
didn't say that.
this is what flash help say:
To run a script from the command line on Windows:
Use the following syntax (add path information as required):

Help with first java app!

Hello all. I'm very new to java, and I'm trying to create my first GUI app. The idea behind this app is for the user to enter number of hours worked and the rate of pay, and then it will mutliply them together and give you the result.
I have my main class which sets up the frame then calls my panel class
Inside my panel class I have two panels, one for the twi input textfields (hours and rate of pay) and one panel for the button and the result text field.
I cannot figure out how to do get the value of both text fields and mutliply them together when the botton is clicked. Here's my code:
import javax.swing.*;
public class FirstProject
     public static void main (String[] args)
          //Sets up the frame
          JFrame frame = new JFrame ("My first Java app");
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          frame.setSize(300, 200); frame.setVisible(true);
          //Foreground panel class
          foreground fg = new foreground();
          //Add stuff
          frame.getContentPane().add(fg);
          frame.setVisible(true);
          frame.pack();
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller.Listener;
public class foreground extends JPanel implements ActionListener
     public foreground()
          //Setup the layout
          setLayout (new BoxLayout (this, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
          //Setup input panel
          JPanel input = new JPanel();
          input.setBackground(Color.white);
          input.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black, 1));
          //Setup output panel
          JPanel output = new JPanel();
          output.setBackground(Color.white);
          output.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black, 1));
          //Add main media
          add(input);
          add(output);
          //--**INPUT BOX**--\\
          //Setup the hours label
          JLabel hour = new JLabel("Number of hours worked: ");
          //Setup the rate of pay label
          JLabel pay = new JLabel("Enter your rate of pay: ");
          //Setup the rate of pay text field
          TextField paytext = new TextField("20", 3);
          //Setup the hour text field
          TextField hrtext = new TextField("40", 0);
          //Add objects for input
          input.add(hour);
          input.add(hrtext);
          input.add(pay);
          input.add(paytext);
          //--**OUTPUT BOX**--\\
          //Set up objects in output panel
          JButton calculate = new JButton("Calculate!");
          calculate.addActionListener(this);
          calculate.setActionCommand("Calculate");
          //Add calculate text field
          TextField calculatetext = new TextField(2);
          //Add objects for output
          output.add(calculate);
          output.add(calculatetext);
}Thanks in advance!!
P.S. I'm using eclispe btw.

Your problem is related to your ActionListener.
public class foreground extends JPanel implements ActionListener
calculate.addActionListener(this);You have it set up so the Foreground panel is listening to the calculate button's clicks, but it's not doing anything with the clicks.
I would strongly suggest dropping the "implements ActionListener" bit and implementing a separate ActionListener, like so:
JButton calculate = new JButton("Calculate!");
ActionListener buttonListener = new ActionListener() {
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
      // do whatever you want with the
      // paytext.getText ...
      // hrtext.getText ...
calculate.addActionListener(buttonListener);
// and you don't need this: calculate.setActionCommand("Calculate");rh

Help with first Adobe Script for AE?

Hey,
I'm trying to create a script that will allow me to set a certain number of layer markers at an even interval to mark out a song. Could someone help me troubleshoot this script? I've been working on it for ages now, and I'm about to snap. I've basically gone from HTML and CSS, to javascript and Adobe scripting in the past few hours, and I cannot figure this out for the life of me.
I want to create a dialog with two fields, the number of markers to place, and the tempo of the song. Tempo is pretty simple, its just the number of beats per minute. The script is meant to start at a marker that I have already placed, and set a new marker at incrementing times. Its mainly to help me see what I'm trying to animate too, even if the beat is a little hard to pick up every once in a while.
Also, is there a better way to do this? This script will help me in the long run because I will need to do this pretty often, but I'm wondering if there was something that I could not find online that would have saved me these hours of brain-jumbling?
Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

You should ask such questions over at AEnhancers. I had a quick look at your code but could not find anything obvious, so it may relate to where and when you execute certain functions and how they are nested, I just don't have the time to do a deeper study.

Help required in Java Script

As far as I know the variables that are used inside java script program are declared using var keyword.
Suppose I assign in the following manner,
var str="Hello";
Is there any way I can using the String functions that java.lang supports . I want to do validaition at the client side. Therefore I assume there is no mandatory requirement , that the client has anything java on his system.

Javascript already supports many of the java.lang functions, eg, substring(start, stop), length, splice, split, etc.
Just remember your using Javascript so there may be variations with methods and signatures.
Have a look at either Netscapes or Microsofts Javascript reference.

Need Help Writing a Shell Script

Basically I'm writing a script that opens TextEdit so I can open it from the Terminal. I also want it to run in the background so I can continue using the Terminal without having to quit TextEdit first. So far I've figured out two ways of doing this, and neither one does exactly what I want it to do. Here's the first one I tried:
/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit $@ &
The problem with this is that if TextEdit is already running, it opens a new instance of it to open the files, and it doesn't bring the app into focus when I run it. So I decided to try this:
open -a "TextEdit" $@ &
This way all files open in the same instance of TextEdit and it brings the app to the front, but it won't let me save anything I don't have write privileges for, even if I run it with sudo. I Googled it and apparently what happens is it runs "open" as root but runs the actual application that I'm opening as the current user.
So basically what I need to know is if there's a way of doing this that will congregate all files into the same instance of TextEdit and bring the app to the front when I launch it, but still let me run it as root with sudo. If not, is there at least a way to check if TextEdit is running and throw an error if it is?

#!/usr/bin/env bash
if ps ax | grep '[T]extEdit'; then
echo "TextEdit is already running!"
else
/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit &
fi
open -a TextEdit "$@"
osascript -e 'tell application "TextEdit" to activate'
Example:
your.script "text file.txt"
NOTE 1: When posting code to this forum, enclose your code in
...your code goes here...
This will make sure that all your indentation and other meta-characters that might get interpreted by the forum code will be left alone.
NOTE 2: The $@ will ONLY preserve quoted strings as a single argument if it is specified as "$@". That is to say it MUST be inside a pair fo double-quotes. Otherwise it is the same as $* The missing ".." are what messed up your ability to treat a file with space as a single argument. ALSO NOTE, I specified the file on the command line inside quotes (could be single or double), or you could use if you desire.
NOTE 2 and a half:
If you DO NOT want to put quotes around the space filled filename when invoking your script, you could change your "$@" to "$*"
open -a TextEdit "$*"
The difference is that using "$@" will allow specifying several filenames on the command line and TextEdit will open all of them at once. The use of "$*" means you can only open 1 file per use of your script. Not a big deal, but I figured you should know the options available to you.
NOTE 3: I've simplified your script.
I do not know why you decided that if you are root you wanted to use sudo, since sudo gives normal users root privileges, and root already has root privileges.
Actually based on earlier exchanges, I would have thought that you wanted to start TextEdit using sudo, unless it was already running:
sudo /Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit &
so that you had root privileges allowing you to write files in places you were normally not allowed. Then again, maybe I was reading the earlier posting wrong (won't be the first time ).
NOTE 4: The use of
if [ "$textedit" > /dev/null ]; then
is just plain wierd This translates to the command:
test "$textedit" >/dev/null
which redirects standard output into /dev/null, so the actually command looks like
test "$textedit"
which will essentially return TRUE if $textedit has a string in it, and FALSE if $textedit is empty.
I decided to just use the completion status of the grep command as a way to decide if TextEdit was running on not.
NOTE 5: I simplified the ps|grep|grep command with a trick I learned several years ago. The '[T]extEdit' regular expression exactly matchs TextEdit, except that it DOES NOT match a ps line that has '[T]extEdit'. So I can get rid of one grep command because it will never match the grep command in the ps output.
NOTE 6: I moved the open and osascript commands outside the if structure, as I assumed you wanted osascript to bring TextEdit to the foreground regardless of whether it was already running or not, and the open command was identical for both halfs of the if structure. If this is a bad assumption, feel free do put it back inside the if structure.

I need help writing an apple script

earlier I made an application with automater saying that when it opens it would add something to my todo list, for example, the subject being english and priority being very high. Then I made an apple script telling it to open the application I made. Then I made a mail rule telling it that if i text my computer and the text includes english and very important (english is subject and very important is the priority) it would open the apple script that tells the application i made to open and put english in my todo list. Can someone tell me how I can make a script in which it puts whatever I text my computer in my todo list, so if i text my computer anything random it would put it in my todo list

Well after a bit of head scratching I have done it! And it was simpler than I expected although I'm sure the script can be improved, it does what I want it to do. Any suggestions on improvements would be welcome.
Andy E
The script...
set artistName to text returned of (display dialog “Enter artists name:” default answer “”)
set artistSortName to text returned of (display dialog “Enter artists sort name:” default answer “”)
if artistName is “” then
set tempVer to display dialog “No artist name specified!” buttons {“OK”}
return
end if
if artistSortName is “” then
set tempVer to display dialog “No artist sort name specified!” buttons {“OK”}
return
end if
tell application “iTunes”
activate
set theLibrary to library playlist “Library”
set searchList to search theLibrary for artistName

Need Help Writing a Calculation Script Using a Checkbox

Hello,
I am new to Adobe X Standard and Javascript. I have all other parts of my fillable change order form completed except the tax calculation. I have the following fields:
Text Field = SUBTOTAL
Text Field = TAX
Checkbox = Exempt
I would like the calculation in the TAX field to be as follows:
If the checkbox = false then SUBTOTAL * .05, else SUBTOTAL = 0.
It really doesn't seem that complex but learning javascript on the fly is apparently above my skill level. I would greatly appreciate someone's help in getting this initial calculation working. I greatly appreciate your time. Thank you.

Your description is a bit confusing to me. Do you want to calculate the value of the TAX field? In the last bit of pseudocode, you seem to be setting SUBTOTAL to 0. Do you want the tax to be the SUBTOTAL value times 0.05 if not exempt and 0 if exempt? If so, the custom calculate script of the TAX field can be:
event.value = getField("Exempt").value === "Off" ? +getField("SUBTOTAL").value * 0.05 : 0;
This is equivalent to:
if (getField("Exempt").value === "Off") {
event.value = +getField("SUBTOTAL").value * 0.05;
} else {
event.value = 0;

Help needed in Java Script

HI all,
can anyone tell me what is the meaning of following code ? Please !!
Code
<script language="JavaScript">
function enable_button()
     document.form1.SelectBut.disabled =false;
<td><font size=4 color="Blue">Please Select the .CSV file to e-mail</font></td><input type=FILE Accept="csv/*" size=30 name="acsvfile" title="Find a vaild .CSV file and Click SEND_EMAIL button" onclick="onChange=enable_button()"></tr>
</table>
Thanx in advance.
Regards,
Ashvini

The form has a file input button (acsvfile) and a submit button (SelectBut). The SelectBut is initially disabled until the user clicks on the acsvfile button to select a file for upload.
However I don't believe that it works the way that it i intended. The enable_button function gets called on the onClick event and the SelectBut will always be enabled even if the user cancels the file selection.
You may want to remove the onClick and use :
function enable_button()
    if (document.x.acsvfile.value == "") {
         document.x.SelectBut.disabled =true;
    } else {
        document.x.SelectBut.disabled =false;
<td><font size=4 color="Blue">Please Select the .CSV file to e-mail</font></td><input type=FILE Accept="csv/*" size=30 name="acsvfile" title="Find a vaild .CSV file and Click SEND_EMAIL button" onChange="enable_button()" onKeyDown="blur();"   ></tr> This will only enable the SelectBut if the user selects a file but will not allow the user to manually enter a file. You may want to be nice and add a clear button tp remove any files they have selected.

Need help writing and Apple Script

I've never written an apple script before so I need the entire tutorial for dummies. Basically, I am annoyed with the fact that Microsoft Word 08 keeps opening a new document at 100% zoom when I want it to open at "page width." How do I write a script for that?

You don't need an Applescript. Open the New Document template, resize as you like then save the template.
To learn Applescript start here. You will also find support at the Applescript site for developers. Your local book store or Amazon.com have dozens of books on Applescript programming.
Here's the main site for obtaining Applescripts.

Need help with Java Script to perform a calculation in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 form

I have a form (test) that I am creating in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
I need help creating custom Java Script so I can get the desired answer.
1) There are several questions in each group that require a numerical answer between 0-4
2) There is a total field set up to sum the answers from all above questions
3) The final "score" takes the answer from Step 2 above and divides by the total possible answer
Any help on what Java Script I need to complete this would be greatly appreciated!
I've attached a "spreadsheet" that shows it in more detail as well as what formulas I used in Excel to get the desired end result.
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried the "The field is the average of:"?
