How do I set a "force-fill" to a drop-down box?

How do I require the drop-down boxes to be filled prior to submitting?  I already have the "required" box checked.  I'm guessing that maybe why the required is not working is due to the blank I have at the top of the list.  I did that so upon opening the document the boxes appear blank & need a selection entered.  This is what it looks like when I remove the blank.

Thanks for replying.  Although, I may need a “dumbed” down version of your response…Let me see if I understand correctly.  I cannot require a recipient to select an option in a drop down box.  Or is that only the case if I have a blank within the list?  I’m fairly new to the Adobe Forms (read: no formal training…just bumbling along on my own), so I have no idea what setting the property to true means or how to do custom scripting.

  • How do i change the backgrond color of a drop down box.

    I'm creating a form which has a colored background and a drop down box with 5 choices.  The problem is the font color in the drop down box is white and so is the background color of the drop down box so the selections are not visible unless you scroll over them.  I would like the background of the drop down box to match the background of the form. 
    Also, can the font size of a selection in a drop down box be different then what is displayed.  The font is set to 35 so it's huge when displayed in the drop down box.  It would be nice if the selections were displayed in the drop down box in size 10 font but displayed on the form once selected as size 35.
    Thanks!
    Mike

    You can set the background colour with (in formcalc):
    $.fillColor = "5,5,5" // obviously changing the numbers to the RGB colour you want
    or if it is not going to change just set it in Border tab under Background fill.
    For the size of the font - set the dropdown box to size 10 font and then in the exit event of the dropdown list put (in formcalc):
    $.font.size = "35pt"

  • How to get my usernames to appear from the drop down box then password automatically put in?

    =( ugh...
    I used to have my settings where it remembered my user name from the drop down box - so I would just type the first letter of my user name and a drop down box would appear and I could just click on my user name for that particular site and my password would automatically fill in...
    I changed something the other night and can't remember what the heck I did... now it won't remember ANY user name OR password or like on face book it has my user name and password there automatically when I open up the log in face book page.
    So I would like to know if anyone knows what needs to be clicked and unclicked to make it so:
    I start typing my user name and the drop down box appears with user names and then my password automatically fills.. I DO NOT want all my user names and passwords already IN the forms when I first open the website... but for me to actually type in a letter and then it fills it... like it used to =(
    /cry
    why do I touch stuff?
    Anyway I hope someone can help me because I am going nuts trying to figure it out and think I'm goofing things up even more =/
    I have firefix 3.6.10

    Does this help?

  • How to set up rules/conditions on a drop down box to ensure its been filled if a value in a text box is selected.

    Hi, I am in midst of creating a form in infopath. I have a text box field in which the user will enter the number of issues he has. if the user has entered the number of issues he has, then he will need to select the type of issues from a multi selection
    box. Thus i need to know how to set up rules/conditions to ensure that the user has to complete the multi selection box if he enters a value in text box for the number of issues. 

    I assume what you are asking is to make multi selection box as mandatory. If not please explain with a example
    Try below:

  • How to get ALL values as default for  a drop down box in JSF

    Hi,
    I have a drop down box in JSF page which retrieves values from LOVCache.java. I have values like Company, Client, User, ALL in the drop down box.
    By default blank value is selected for the drop down box. I want to make ALL(which retrieves data for all the values) as default value for the drop down box.
    Could any body help me? Any help must be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Aseet

    Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
    I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
    I mean to say can I write
    unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
    where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.

  • How to insert drop-down box into the already set-up table ?

    if i have a table already set up, and i do want to add the drop-down box into each column like in the excel. how would i do that ? this drop-down box would allows me to specifically select the data as shown on the screen.

    Hi Bondwaan,
    I am not sure wht you are asking but I suspect it has to do with a popup menu. If that is the case, a popup menu is a formatting choice.
    If you need more info, you will need to ask a more specific question.

    Hi Ratnakar,
    If u r using Dropdown By Key, u can use the method that Armin suggested.
    If u r using Dropdown By Index, then do the following
    Let ur View Name be 'MyView'
    1. In ur View Context,Create a Node(Say Root) of Cardinality 0..N
    2. Create a value attribute(Say Name) in 'Root'.
    3. In wdDoInit(), add the following code
    IPrivateMyView.IRootNode rNode=wdContext.nodeRoot();
    IPrivateMyView.IRootElement rEl=rNode.createRootElement();     
    rNode.addElement(rEl);
    rEl.setName("HIGH");
    rEl=rNode.createRootElement();
    rNode.addElement(rEl);
    rEl.setName("MEDIUM");     
    rEl=rNode.createRootElement();
    rNode.addElement(rEl);
    rEl.setName("LOW");     
    Hope this be Helpful

  • How to Change a Default Value from Drop Down Box displayed in Web Dynpro?

    Hi,
    How to Change a Default Value from 'High' to 'Low'  in a Drop Down Box for RANGE field displayed in Standard Web Dynpro Component.  I saw a Default Value set for a RANGE field  in View Context When I select that field and click on Display. I am seeing Default Value set it to 'HI'. Please let me know how to change from HIgh to Low.
    I appreciate your help!
    Thanks,

    hi,
    use the set_attribute( ) method now to set the attribute with a particular key eg HIGH in ur case
    // u can use the code wizard( control +f7) this code will be auto generated when u select the
    //radio button to read the context node
    DATA lo_nd_cn_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
      DATA lo_el_cn_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
      DATA ls_cn_node TYPE wd_this->element_cn_node.
    * navigate from <CONTEXT> to <CN_NODE> via lead selection
      lo_nd_cn_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_cn_node ).
    * get element via lead selection
      lo_el_cn_node = lo_nd_cn_node->get_element(  ).
    * set single attribute
      lo_el_cn_node->set_attribute(
          name =  `ATTribute name.`
          value = 'LOW' ).
    it will solve ur query ..
    also refer to this component

    you can create a method to populate the context attribute that you are using to map to your dropdown box.
    DATA: node_info TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node_info.
    DATA: it_table TYPE wdr_context_attr_value_list.
    ** select your dropdown data into it_table and pass it to your context attribute.
    ** here, mine is call PROJ_TYPE - the values should appear in your dropdown.
      node_info->set_attribute_value_set(
         name      = 'PROJ_TYPE'
         value_set = it_table ).
