How to make formfield to clear after user submits data

We created a form where a staff person responsible for hiring can enter a new employee's information and then distribute the information to colleagues who need to prepare various info for the new person's arrival. Sending out the same form to multiple colleagues allows us to cut down on emailing info back and for and sharing information with everyone once.
The form resides on our common drive so when it is filled it can be submitted by email. How can we make the form not keep the data that was entered? For example once it is submitted by email the form fields would become empty and the form coud not be saved by the person who entered the data.
Currently if the form is submitted the employee can save the form which results in the next person opening the form seeing all the data that was entered by the previous person and thus have to delete them before new data can be entered. 
Is there any trick to this?
Thank you in advance for any info on this.

Uh oh.... I am not a developer ... technically pretty savy and can figure out easy things but this is a bit over my head....
so what is JS? Java Script?  how do I code clear?
where is the xfa code?
I didn't set up the form originally - but was asked to fix it :-)  so. the person who set up the "email submit" used a simple button that is coded to submit to a URL. Apparently 4-5 email addresses can be entered here where as the email submit button supports only 1 email (?)  Yet to try that out.
Can this affect tha fact that the form doesn't clear out for the next person?
What if I use the 'reset form' button? Does that help? It's an extra button on the form but maybe helps for now.
What would be ideal if the user couldn;t save the form but that is another work all together.
Sorry for not being more technical here...

        font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
        font-size: 18px;

  • How to make a reading implausible in user define validations?

    Hi all,
    Can any1 tell me how to make a reading implausible
    in user define validations.
    Regards,
    Darshana.

    I don't have an example at hand right now, but I've done this in the past.
    If my memory doesn't fail me, one of the return parameters of the user-exit in which you have to make your validations has a parameter that let's you define (im)plausibility.
    Edit: the user exit has:
    EXCEPTIONS
           PLAUSI_ERROR
    So, raise this exception to get an implausible reading.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to make an before and after effects?

    So, I want to make a video that show the audience this is before and after the edit. And i want to make it look like this YouTube Rewind 2014: Behind the Scenes - YouTube
    How to make it?
    Thanks:)

    Really? You take footage of you shooting the video with another camera then you edit it together with shots of the finished project. If you want to show before and after shots of an effect you just put the original footage on top and animate a mask or opacity to reveal the rendered effect below.
    If you can't figure out how to make a before and after then you will have a very difficult time doing any effects using AE because there is absolutely nothing in this before and after but very basic editing and masking.

  • How to make Flash to wait for user input

    Hi,
    I found this PHP script, then I made some changes to make it
    FEED the Flash user interface with online user input.
    The main concept of this script is WAITING for user input, so
    it shows the messages and then go to next line and so on.
    The user input go to directly to TEXT file which writes in
    lines, each line has a unique id = (mag_id).
    There "get_msge.php" which works as the middleware between
    FLASH and messages text file.
    The problem, its doesn’t show any data while there are
    data in the text file.
    Help here please, best regards.
    This is the link of
    problem illustartion
    AS is:
    // create an object to store the variables
    varReceiver = new LoadVars();
    // load the variables from the text file
    varReceiver.load("get_msg.php?file_id=1&msg_id=1",
    "POST");
    // trigger something - when the variables finish loading
    varReceiver.onLoad = function(){
    //the variables have finished loading
    if (this.msg_id == 1) {
    _root.xmsg1_swf.text = this.msg;
    _root.xmsg1_ch.text = this.msg;
    gotoAndPlay("line2");
    } else {WAIT }
    PHP is:
    <?php
    //get these values from the FLASH
    $file_id_swf = $_POST ['file_id'];
    $file_name = "messages/messages".$file_id_swf.".txt";
    $msg_id_swf = $_POST ['msg_id'];
    // [0] ."||".[1] ."||".[2] ."||". [3] ."||".[4]."||". [5].
    //$msg_id."||".date."||".time."||".$from."||".$to."||".$msg.
    $fp = fopen ($file_name, 'rb');
    while (!feof ($fp))
    $msg_txt = fgets ($fp, 1024);
    $line = explode ("||", $msg_txt);
    $msg_id = $line[0];
    $from = $line[3];
    $to = $line[4];
    $msg = utf8_encode ($line[5]);
    if ($msg_id == $msg_id_swf)
    echo
    "msg_id=".$msg_id."&from=".$from."&to=".$to."&msg=".$msg;
    }//while
    fclose ($fp);
    ?>

    Well, given the things that you've written, I don't think it
    could. There technically isn't any code in flash that lets it
    "wait." In order to "wait," you must run the script over again
    until some condition is met.
    However, your code does look accurate. Why do you need to
    wait? The onLoad function will be invoked WHEN something is loaded.
    So, I don't see the reason for the "waiting."
    In addition to that, I would like to say that using text
    files isn't that great with flash. I have done this before and
    noticed several problems with using text files. The biggest problem
    is that the text files are cached after being loaded. Every time
    you re-load it again, you will get what you got the first time
    until you reset your cache (ie. close your browser). I suggest
    using MySQL. (Just my thought.)

  • How to make the document dirty after updating the links?

    How do I make the document dirty after updating the resources?

  • How to make default personalization options for users

    Hi all,
    How can I make default personalization options for users, so that those will the default options when the user opens the portal BSP applications. Those will be the standard, at later point of time if they want they can personlalize some other fields, but earlier fields will be the default fields and user cant be able to change them.
    Thanks
    Murthy

    Hi Murthy,
    If you use IMG (crmc_blueprint_c) to customize PCUI appl than you can use the personalization feature. If you select 'Not in List' in the IMG for the field in the fieldgroup structure, than this field by default will not be viewable in the List View and will not be checked as 'Visible' in the Personilzation link. So by not selecting 'Not in List' you are giving that field to be viewable and all other fields are available for users to personalize by default.
    If you have maintained the 'List View' using the CRM Designer, than most likely you would lose the above feature, as SAP Standard code considers the CRM Designer as high level of customization.
    Thanks

    By default, all Applications are installed in /Applications. Those are available to all users. If you choose to install in your home Applications folder, they are only available to that user.
    You can also control app usage with Parental Controls. If that is on, that my be why some cannot use certain apps.

  • How to make bookmarks appear in all user accounts w/out importing and exporting everytime.

    Hello, all. I'm imaging a couple of laptops to be sent out. I want the bookmarks on the admin user account to be applied to the network domain user accounts or roaming profile is you will. Is there a way to this without have to import/export?

    I am trying to do the same thing. I also cant get it to work. I am
    thinking it may have something to do with the concept of ScopedResponse, but
    I am not sure. There is very little documentation and more importantly
    examples of how to make sense of the getOuterResponse() method. Dev2Dev and
    Google are of no help.
    Anyone care to explain this to us?

    Hi,
    Normally we use feedback as an explanation by an approver to the previous approver about his action on the doc( reject/approve).
    I think you want ur users to view the doc and then give suggestions to make it better and these comments should be approved and then made visible.
    I replied on one such thread earlier too.
    Please have a look at this [thread|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=816692]
