How to Debug Java Script in Adobe Form

I have used an alert for empty fields . I have used Check button control for this.
But the button click is very inconsistent. Some times it triggers the event sometimes it doesnt. Is there anyway to debug the java script. I have installed Script editor for IE but I am unable to use it for Adobe Forms.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vasu

Hi Vasu,
i think that maybe is the check sequence is not very correct.. and maybe you can try to code it one check for empty fields at a time..
example
Name.
Address.
Tel.
Hp.
Email.
so u can try to code for one item at a time then slow try to debug it... as last time i use to insert the javascript inside each component then after it i implement into a button and slowly check for the check sequence which one need to be 1st and etc.
hope it help you. if not maybe u can give more information. maybe i can help you out at myside.
Regard,
Ng Jia Jun

Condition verification in java script on Adobe form.

Hello Experts,
I am using a interactive forma text element on my view. (java web dynpro)
It's a simple application. I am trying to figure out how it works with java script.
I have a text field. which displays employ is sales or production dept
the values in the data view and its the output element of a BAPI which returns XF,TF,HF and XK,JK,HK
(record.dept)
if its XF, TF, HF on the text field in the adobe form should print sales else production.
I have never used java script on adobe form.
I figured the strip above the form in adobe designer is used for java script.
can any one, let me know how I can manipulate. the record value
Here is what I am trying record.dept = XF |TF|JF . but i dont know how to run the java script or its syntax.
Your help is highly appreciated.

James,
xfa.host.messageBox should show you an alert dialog box to check data you are getting.
And yes you are right. You can set the value of textfield using code you mentioned.
if(record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("XF")
             || record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("TF")
                      record.dept.equalsIgnoreCase("JF"))
   xfa.host.messageBox("The value is Sales");
   <Text-field id>.value = "Sales";
else
   xfa.host.messageBox("The value is Production");
<Text-field id>.value = "Production";
You can even set the texfields to be readOnly, hide some of them etc. But for that I would suggest you going thru the LiveDesigner help. It would solve most of your doubts :-).

How to use Java Script in Oracle Forms 10g

Hello,
Appreciate if anyone could help me using Java Script in Oracle Forms 10g?
Thanks
GM

Thank you for your reply. I was reading on the metalink that we could use the to call the java script from oracle Forms 10g (Doc ID 265863.1)
Example:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('javascript:void(window.open("http://www.oracle.com","","location=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,status=no,"));self.close()','_blank');
I tried it but it did not open the any window as it claims. Am I missing anything? Is there any IE related setting which I need to modify for the above to work?

Regarding usage of java script in adobe forms

Hello experts,
Please any body help me out with what events i should use in java script / formcalc .
send links for java scripting and formcalc.
Thanxs,
adi.

The reference for Formcalc is available inside you designer installation directory.
Like this one C:\Program Files\Adobe\Designer 7.1\Documentation\EN\FormCalc.pdf
There you can also find general LifeCycle Designer Documentation (Designer.chm)
In this file goto Creating Calculations and Scripts -> Events -> List of events
As for JavaScript - reference is not in the package, so you have to search a bit. Something is available:
Like this one: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/tips/CalcScripts.pdf
Hope this helps!

How to print page numbers in adobe form

Hi,
Can anybody tell me how to print page numbers in adobe form.
Thanks in advance
Chaitanya

Hi,
Yes the field page n of m is used normally for printing page numbers. But it won't display the current page of total pages by itself. You have to set the run time property to n (current page ) and m (Total number of pages). Carefully select the # (current page ) and ## (Total number of pages). Hope this works for you.
My requirement is to have the user control on current page. For Example:
Example for a Invoice with 5 PO items (stands on 2 pages) :
1st page is the letter : no page number
2nd page is the 1st page of the 1st copy of the invoice : we should read u201C1 / 2u201D
3rd page is the 2nd page of the 1st copy of the invoice : we should read u201C2 / 2u201D
4th page is the 1st page of the 2nd copy of the invoice : we should read u201C1 / 2u201D
5th page is the 2nd page of the 2nd copy of the invoice : we should read u201C2 / 2u201D
Presently i cam getting the current page number for page 4th as 3 / 2 and for 5th page 4 / 2. I could able to control the total number of pages from print program. But when i am printing the second copy (4th and 5th pages), I couldn't able to control the current page number. I need to initialize the Current page count (4th page ) as 1.
I have used the follwing java scripting:
this.rawValue = wv_pages - xfa.layout.page(this)
where wv_pages is total no of pages calculated from print program.
Please help me in this regard with some formcal or java scripting conditions.
Thank You,
Regards,
Naresh.

Can't add java script to Adobe 7.0 PDF document

Hi, ran into a small problem using Adobe Pro 7.0. Created a interactive form in Adobe Designer 7.0. Want to add Java script to run when a user selects certain fields on the forms. However, when I try and use the advanced editing tools to gain access to the Java script properties for that object, the toolbar is greyed out. No document security has been configured. Can this be done? Should it be done in Adobe Prof or in Designer? Can't figure out how to add the java script to the forms.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Michael

Once a form is started in LiveCycle Designer, it has to be edited in LiveCycle Designer. There are very few Acrboat features that can be used.

Hi, SDN Expert.
I am working on research the use of Adobe Interactive Forms in the current processes of HCM ESS MSS.
We are on ECC5.0, EP7.0, and ESS MSS SP21. We are in the midst of upgrading to ECC6.0.
Do you know where Web Dynpro Java version of Adobe Forms are used in ESS MSS are used? OR are they all in Web DYnpro ABAP version in ECC6.0?
Thanks,
KC

FYI.

Debugging a script and smart form

Hi Can u explain me How to Debug a Script and Smart from in Real time

hi,
for smartforms
1. use transaction SMARTFORM_TRACE
2. in the SMARTFORMS, use utilities to show the function name. You can analyze this function in SE37 and set dynamic breakpoints as required. Lok at the SMARTFORM_TRACE to decide where to set break points.
3. BREAK-POINT can be used only in own program lines in smartform - not very helpful because it always stops until removed and generated again.
for scripts
from SE71 enter form name
from Menu Utilities->ACTIVATE DEBUGGER
then execute the script from the Application Transaction
it will stop in the script and check for the Values you need
or
Execute RSTXDBUG.

How to improve the performance of adobe forms

Hi,
Please give me some suggestions as to how to improve the performance of adobe form?
Right now when I' am doing user events it is working fine for first 6 or 7 user events. From the next
one it is hanging.
I read about Wizard form design approach, how to use the same here.
Thanks,
Aravind

Hi Otto,
The form is created using HCM forms and processes. I' am performing user events in the form.
User events will doa round trip, in which form data will be sent to backend SAP system. Processing will
happen on the ABAP side and result will appear on the form. First 6 or 7 user events works correctly,
the result is appearing on the form. Around 8 or 9th one, the wait symbol appears and the form is not
re-rendered. The form is of size 6 pages. The issue is not coming with form of size 1 page.
I was reading ways to improve performance during re-rendering given below.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/articles/DynamicInteractiveFormPerformance.pdf
It talks about wizard form design approach. But in SFP transaction, I am not seeing any kind of wizard.
Let me know if you need further details.
Thanks,
Aravind
