How to distribute a form with multiple submit buttons?

I have a form that has multiple submit buttons depending on the information that is being entered and then who the information should go to. When I try to disbribute the form, I get an error message stating the following, "Acrobat is unable to distribute this form because it contains multiple submit buttons with different formats or return URLs." Is anyone able to let me know how I can distribute the form?

Sounds as if you need your own web script to process submissions - written by an experienced web programmer (I very strongly recommend someone familiar with all the latest security weaknesses, and not a project for anyone else). Your needs are (it seems to me) too complex for Adobe's automatic system.

Using JavaScript to submit a form with multiple submit buttons

I am a newbie to JavaScript, so hopefully someone can answer
this for me.
On my user registration form, I have two buttons that submit
the form, 'check_availability' (to check if the username is
available) and 'register'. In my PHP script, I check which button
was pushed by checking which POST value is set,
$_POST['check_availability'] or $_POST['register'].
If I set the 'register' button to a JavaScript function that
validates the form and then submits it, how do I get my PHP script
to think 'register' was pushed?

Sorry I used my old captcha script there.
[php]
<?
session_start();
if(isset($_POST['button_name'])){
//DO SOMETHING HERE
} else {
//Add the page data
?>
[/php]

How to design a form with multiple lang(Arabic and Eng) in a page

Hi All,
Could you pls help me how to design a form with multiple languages. when I set the form proprties-->Form Locale as Arabic. English text is comming in reverse and when set the FormLocale as English, Arabic text is comming in revese.
Pls help me how to design
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Jayakar

I am not sure how you can have two different languages inside the same PDF.
Alternatively, if you want to place only the static labels, you can convert all the static label in one language to images and set the form language setting to other. And place the images inside the form using Image field. For example, you can keep the form language as English and then convert all the arabic language labels/ Static text to images.
Anotherway,
Have same sections in both the languages and hide and unhide based on the user selection of the language..
if your user chooses Arabic, then you can unhide the Arabic sections and change the form language properties programmatically..
Thanks

How to build a form with multiple tables in oracle application express

Hi everyone,

Thank you

Sans,
I am no Apex expert, but with a situation as "complex" as yours, have you thought about creating a VIEW that joins these 7/8 tables, placing an INSTEAD OF trigger on that view to do all the business logic in the database, and base your application on the view?
This is the "thick-database" approach that has been gaining momentum of late. The idea is to put your business logic in the database wherever possible, and let the application (Form, Apex, J2EE, whatever) concentrate on UI issues,

Is it possible to set up a form with a submit button where the data in the fields gets added to an existing excel file, just like 'collect response' but without connecting to the internet?

I have a form that I want to use to collect peoples information with a submit button. I am trying to get the data that gets inserted to be added to an existing excel doc when the submit button gets hit, the form then resets and someone else can fill in the same form, hit submit and his data gets added to the existing data in the same excel doc. It is basically the same as the 'collecting response' option but without having to be online. The form is going to be used at a boat-show and I am going to get people to fill it out on an iPad. Does anybody know if this is possible?

You could connect a bunch of 3700s to each computer and do this .
Or...since you're the one who monitors the monthly limit, you could restrict an individual's internet access once you see that you guys are coming too close to the cap.
I don't work for Cisco. I'm just here to help.

Submitting multiple forms with one Submit button?

I'm working to create a web app for the iphone and am using
an apple developed css within an html page. In doing so I have
created three forms within the single page and would like to submit
them simultaneously with one submit. I've looked and tried a few
javascripts but nothing has worked thus far. All three forms call
the same action (php).
Is this possible using js or another function?

Make it a single form.

PDF form with one submit button that prints form and sanves PDF with data with a unique file name

We have a long medical form that patients can fill out at kiosks as they wait to see a doctor. We want one button so that the patient can print out the form with one click (and finish filling it out by hand if it's not finished already) and the same button click will save the form with a unique file name (using last name, first name, date, and/or email address so that the identity of the person who filled out the form will be readily apparent to anyone who wants to grab the user's responses later). Is Acrobat capable of doing something like this? LiveCycle Designer maybe? And if we continue with the PDF form and add a submit button, is there a way to program the button click to print and to save?
Thank you in advance of any suggestions that might accomplish this task.

I am not sure about the print, but it can probably be done -- possibly with a bit of JavaScript. As to the saving of the form, that is not reasonable at a kiosk. You would want the data submitted to a server (particularly with patient data), no e-mail or accessible drive. You can collect the data and put it in a database or import it to the form for printing yourself.

Multiple Submit buttons in Adobe form !

Hello Experts,
Scenario :
Form has Material number as input field and Material description should get automatically populated( maybe as a script or button , dont know yet ). Then the form is to be submitted at the backend.
I have created an Adobe interactive form with Multiple Submit buttons( one is Submit toSAP) button , other is a normal pushbutton( for Material desc to be populated ) . I have been able to Submit data at backend.
But problem is there is only one event on the Interactive form UI element properties.
Please suggest how to achieve the above ? via script or sm code in web dynpro ?
System Config : WAS 6.4 / SP12 .
Need a quick resolution. Generous points for help.
Regards,
Sonika

Hi Sonika,
control_param structure is used in case of ISR forms, but I dont think your form is related to the ISR.
Use a context attribute, and set its value to get the Material description from backend.
Like you can define an attribute in context, "GETDESCRIPTION", and set its value at the exit event of Inputfield to "GET".
$.parent.GETDESCRIPTION.rawvalue = "GET"
app.eval("event.target.SAPSubmit();");
And at the click event of the button you can write:
$.parent.GETDESCRIPTION.rawvalue = "SET"
app.eval("event.target.SAPSubmit();");
And in the backend, read the value of this attribute and perform the desired action.
Hope this helps,
Amit

Can't submit form with multiple signatures

I have a form with multiple signatures. I've enabled Reader Rights. After the first signature signs, the user must save the document. When the document is saved, then the user cannot submit the form to the next signer. Is there a way to change how this is working?
Thanks,
MDawn

MDawn
Did you design the form with Adobe Designer? Assuming you did, when you add a signature field, there is a property enabled by default that "Locks all fields" after signing. A submit button is also considered a field so it will be locked after the first signature is applied.
You need to either disable this property (I would not recommend this) or create field collections that are assigned to specific signature fields. A field collection controls which fields are locked by each signature field when signed.

How do I create multiple TEBs with one submit button on one page in Captivate 7

I've read other posts on this topic (which refer primarily to earlier versions of Captivate) and am still at a loss as to how to put multiple text entry boxes on a page with one submit button. Here's my scenario:
I am creating test questions.
Each test question has multiple text entry boxes (for numbers only).
Student should be able to enter numbers into the textboxes in any order.
Then there is one Submit button that should initiate validating all the text entries, and move to a scoring page (so I can test it). (What would be best is if this button not only did the above, but also submitted scores to the LMS. But that is not my question at this time.)
I'd like this question to be set up as a template so that I can duplicate it, be able to add or delete text boxes and change the values required in the text boxes.
Here is an image of a sample question page with multiple TEBs. The yellow boxes tell the student where they need to enter text:
Any help or direction to help is appreciated!!

I think the problem here is that Arlhoolie wants all of the different TEBs to behave as if they were part of a single interaction that submits only ONE result to the quiz. Using multiple TEBs in Captivate means that you have multiple scored objects and therefore multiple results being submitted to the quiz.
If you want a single Success or Failure result submitted to the quiz based on the results from multiple interactive objects then there really is no simple way to do it. But you could try using the Infosemantics Interactive Master widget to combine all the TEBs as slave objects that report to the Master Widget, which then reports a single score to the quiz based on the results from the slave objects.
You can learn more about the Master widget here:

You can download a free trial version of the widget here:

One caveat you should be aware of is that this widget is not HTML5 compatible.

Regardless of whether this bar is displayed or not, you should be able to access what is in the "Favourites" folder in a few ways.
Firstly via the Bookmarks link in Safari. This is the first icon directly to the right of the address bar. Pressing this will open your Bookmarks menu. If you see the word Bookmarks in blue select this and it will take you to the main bookmarks page, and the word Bookmarks will appear in black bold text. If you see Bookmarks in black bold text when first clicking Bookmarks you are where you need to be. The first link on here will be Favourites and have a star icon right next to it, click on Favourites and you will see what has been added to your Favourites folder - if anything. Also there is an Edit button in the bottom right of this screen, if you aren't going where you expected when selecting a URL in here press Edit, press the > arrow to the right of the favourite name, is the URL correct? If not change it, and click DONE on the keyboard - appears where Return key normally shows on the right-hand side.
If you are opening Safari and have no tabs already open or have already closed pages so none are open you will see icons that represent the contents of your Favourites folder displayed at the top of the page.
Also with a page loaded if you click in to the URL field then you will see these icons appear again, together with the keyboard at the bottom of the page.
Hope this helps.

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. How can I fix this?

I have created a PDF form with multiple drop downs, all with the same drop down values. When I select a value from 1 of the drop down fields, it replicates in all of the others - which I do not want. Can I fix this?

I'm fairly new to this, but I think it has to do with the way you have the drop downs named. Did you copy one then keep pasting it in each field? If so, that is the problem. You should rename each one with a different number: Dropdown1, Dropdown2, etc. I think that might solve the issue.

Best Solution for Creating an Onlne Purchase order form with multiple calculation fields

I am a bit confused. Our school has a Forms Central account which works great for our registration forms but I need to find a solution for creating an online purchase form with multiple calculation fields - I know that forms central does not support calculation fields (too bad) but I know that Acrobat Pro does... soooo...
Can you create the forms in Acrobat and then somehow integrate the advanced features into forms central? Do they talk to each other? Is this easy to do? .... I guess another way to putting it is can you create the forms in Acrobat including all of the advanced features for payment calculation and then host it online using Forms Central to manage and collect the data? (I guess that really is my question)
Thanks (how does this compare to a solution like Formstack?)

Hi, thanks.
The naming convention was the consistant up until a point when I read that you need a '.' syntax (?!) - does anyone know if this is true?
Attached is a version with Bernd Alheit's suggestion and with all the naming of the fields being consistant. It's still not working for me though after doing this and I'm stuck as to why, because I think it should work. I've also tried writing the calcualting line of code in the same manner that Bernd Alheit suggests before I came on here, and it wouldn't work then.
As with any coding, it must be something to which I have done, but I can't see it anywhere
Any ideas? Thanks for helping me
Cheers
