How do you create a new page when user checks a box?

I guess it would be a check box.  I'm looking for a way to have the user select create a new page when the user runs out of space in the text box that is given.  So if its possible is there a way to create a new page with a continuing text box when the user has selected the create a new page check box.  Thanks.

Hi,
You can achieve this by just making some changes to the textfield (and the page layout).
First, select the textfield and then in the Layout palette, tick 'expand' height to fit'. When you preview the form, you will see that as you type information into the field, a scroll bar will appear. When you exit the field, it will expand automatically to display the full contents.
Now the problem will be that the textfield will expand over objects that are positioned below it - not good!
So what you need to do is set up your form for a flowed layout. First select all of the objects that do not grow in size and wrap them inside a 'positioned subform'. When you select the subform you can see this setting in the Object > Subform palette. You should name the subforms in the hierarchy. So you will end up with a positioned subform above your textfield and a positioned subform beneath your textfield (if you have objects beneath it).
Then select page1 in the hierarchy and in the Object > Subform palette, change the content to 'flowed'. Hopefully the layout won't change too much (because you will have most of your objects in their positioned subform).
Last step is to select the textfield and in the Object > Field palette tick 'Allow page breaks within content'. This tells Acrobat/Reader to split the object if it overflows onto a new page.
Now save the form as a Dynamic XML Form in the save as dialog and previewed it. Now when the textfield expands it will push objects beneath it down. Also when it gets to the bottom of the page, it will start a new page automatically and continue the content on the new page.
Here is an example:

Paul Guerette is giving an online tech talk on dynamic forms on the 30 November, which I would recommend. Details here:

Hope that helps,

  • How do you create a new page which does not appear on the navigation bar?

    I am creating a website and have designed the top pages. Some of these pages have sub pages but I can't work out how to create them. Please could someone advise me?
    Many thanks.

    Welcome to the discussions. You can find answers to such questions by searching here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search
    Entering: iWeb navigation
    ...in the first search bar comes up with these documents in the list:
    _Preventing a webpage from appearing in the navigation menu_
    Hiding the navigation menu
    Note that iWeb can't produce sub-pages +per se+ — i.e. ones that drop down from an item (page) in the navigation bar.

  • How can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    how can I create a new page in pages, without creating a new section?

    Good morning graywright,
    It sounds as if what you are wanting to do in the Pages application is to insert a Page Break. Follow the steps in this article -
    Pages '09: Inserting a Page Break
    In a word processing document, click where you want the break to occur, and then choose Insert > Page Break. 
    To remove a page break, click at the beginning of the line that follows the break and press the Delete key.
    In a page layout document, to insert a new page in your document, click Pages in the toolbar and choose from the template page options available.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How Do I Create A New Page To Edit Visually?

    I am trying to create a java program with a main. I can get Studio Creator 2 to create the code for a new main that is empty, but I can't seem to get it to create a page that I can add buttons to visually. I know how to add components using code, but I would really like to be able to add them using the Visual Editor. It seems that the only time I can get the Visual Editor to work is when I open code that came with Java Studio Creator. Is there some code I need to add to my java document that will allow a Visual Editing Mode? Or maybe I have some preference not set correctly? Any information regarding this topic would be greatly appreciated.

    Nothing needs to be added, but by the sound of it you are trying to add components in java mode and not in "Design" mode. In fact, it sounds like you are trying to modify java files that may not even be tied to jsp and jsf fronts.

  • How do you create a new account for a family member?

    My daughter and I both have Ipods, and want to setup SEPARATE accounts. Itunes 7 worked great, but now when we 'upgraded' to 8, it MERGED all our files. So I thought I had a separate account, but it turns out when I load a new song, it goes into HER Itunes files. She deleted all my info, and I REALLY want a separate account (that sticks).
    My songs are still in my directory under "Mikes Itunes", but when I reloaded them into what I thought was a fresh entry, it turns out it went into my daughter's Itunes file too! What is up with Itunes 8? and how can you create a TRUE separate account so I have control over MY songs!?

    First, let's make it easier to swap between accounts. In the Accounts pane of System Preferences click on the Login Options (after unlocking the pane). Enable fast user switching. This will put a new menu in the top right of the screen. You can then swap to the other account without having to log out of the current one.
    Log into the original account. Select the folder you want access from the other account and choose Get Info from the file menu. There is a section called Sharing & Permissions. You will need to click on the padlock to make changes. Click on the + to add permissions for the other user account by selecting the user account from list that appears. Set the permission for that account to read only. Once you have it listed then choose the "Apply to enclosed items" from the gear menu below the list. This should give you access from the other account to that folder and any folders contained in it.
    For iTunes you will want to do this to the Music folder, giving you access to the files below. From within iTunes you can select Add to Library from the file menu, and then select the music from the other account to that account's iTunes library. Once you have set up the new library whoever's library is the original can clean up the library to remove any music they don't want (now that it's in the new account).

  • Indesign CS5.5 audio control creating a new page when exporting to epub.

    I am trying to publish an ebook with embeded audio and when I export to epub the audio contol appears on a seperate page.  Any ideas how to keep this from happening?  I have tried articles and anchored objects.

    How are you creating the Audio control? Is it set for play on Page Load?
    What audio format are you using? The best format is MP3.
    I've played with video (MP4) in EPUB on a iOS device but haven't done audio. If the audio isn't working, you might make an MP4 movie without an image (sound only) which would give you a controller.
