How to prevent an automatic fill in of the current date into a Date/Time Field

hi,
maybe i checked out a strange behaviour of the adobe designer. when i put a "normal" data/time field (with no data pattern, display pattern, etc.) on a form and then change (on the pdf preview tab) to the newly designed date field,i have to stay about 2 minutes on this field not filling it out.
after these minutes the current date is filled in automatically in the date/time field.
what can i do preventing that? any hints?
thanks in advance.

I don't have any info on timelines, all I can say is check back in future versions of Acrobat :(

How can I make the current date/time be sent when emailing as XML?

I'm creating a form for a customer to use for submitting print jobs. This customer will be emailing the XML form data, which will in turn be converted into a production order. I'd like to make the PDF form capture my customer's system time, so that I know when they filled out the form. I COULD just leave that up up the customer and use required current date and time fields, but that provides the ability for the customer to falsify that information.
Is there any good way to capture the current date/time in the XML data, so that the customer doesn't need to nor has the ability to?
Any suggestions would be great!

You can use the following methods getHours(),getMinutes(), and getSeconds() from the date object to obtain the values for hour,minute,and second.

How to get sqlplus to print the current date/time

From a unix command line I can type:
prompt> date; <any_Cmd>; date
This will result in a timestamp being output before and after the command you inserted. Is there a way to make sqlplus print the current date/time after it is done executing an sql statment. This would be useful for me to know how long it took to execute and sql statement without watching it.
Something like:
SQL> select * from table; date;

u cld set the following statements in sql*plus :
sql>set time on
sql>set timing on
hope this solves ur problem.

How to sort news articles from Oldest(from the current date) to newest?

I have a list of news announcements from the month of "Jan 2015" to "Dec 2015". For example each month having a one event, so totally 12 events. But I need to display the latest news articles from current date of latest upcoming news at the top(i.e. May 2015) to farthest at the bottom(i.e. Dec 2015)

Try with sort!
{module_announcement sort="datereverse"} or {module_announcement sortType="datereverse"}. I'm not sure what syntax we use with the new render engine.
With the old syntax it would be {module_announcement,filter,id,noTemplate,effect,targetFrame,reserved,reserved,reserved,r eserved,sort}

Newbie: how to create a dynamic select list of the current date + 5 years

Hi - I'm a JSP newbie (coming from a PHP background), and am trying to create a select list that contains the current year, plus 5 years. So, the list when generated (today), would display:
2007
2008
2009
2010
2011
2012
Obviously, the code would need to generate inside the option tags, as well as in the value property of the option tag.

function addit(){
          var val = 2012; //you can take this from js date object and strip it off
          for (var i=2007; i <= val;++i){
               addOption(document.getElementById("mycombo"), i, i);
function addOption(selectbox,text,value)
     var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
     optn.text = text;
     optn.value = value;
     selectbox.options.add(optn);
}without hardcoding:
function addit(){
          var dd = new Date();
          var yearnow = dd.getFullYear();
          for (var i=yearnow; i <= yearnow + 5 ;++i){
               addOption(document.getElementById("mycombo"), i, i);
function addOption(selectbox,text,value)
     var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
     optn.text = text;
     optn.value = value;
     selectbox.options.add(optn);
in your jsp:
<body onload="addit();">
<form>
<select name="mycombo">
<option> Select year</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>

How can I avoid automatical quantity confirmation of the items?

At our case, production is done on sales sales order for some of the materials. When all of the materials at the order are producedi I want to triger the availability check but availability check triggered autpmatically when for the first time the order is created. I don't want the system to make the confirmation automatically. How can I avoid automatical quantity confirmation of the items?
Thanks in advance for the answers....

Hi Yasar
This can be done 2 ways
1.if you want individual material stocks to be checked for avialbility and deliver them independently then check whether you are using requirement type KSV.
2. If you want to send the group of materials together and do not want to send a material which is part of group individually ,you can use delivery group with Sales Bill of material concept . the header material may be a fantom assembly .
The delivery group is set at the item category level ,so u can set it for the item categories u want to go together.
for example all text package inserts ,extra spares and a material must go together, they will be part of delivery group.
I hope this helps
Regards

How to prevent user to enter data in "Date/Time Field"?

Hi folks,
     Back after long time to the forums, where I get answers which are helpful in making me good at utilizing designer.
     I am trying to validate the "Date/Time Field" using JavaScript but couldn't get a proper RegEx expression for various invalid user input formats. If anyone can help me out in finding a proper script that would Great.
     My script grown bigger and bigger to accepting invalid dates, but felt like hardcoding. So, instead I decided why can't we prevent a user to enter data into "Date/Time Field" and use only calendar dropdown. Is there is a way to do this?
find my sample testing docment

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Rajesh,
I don't think there is a way of stopping the user from using the keyboard to enter a date. You can use the following script in the change event to stop them typing a date but they will still be able to paste a date in.
if (xfa.event.change.length === 1)
xfa.event.change = "";
This code works because if the date is selected from the calendar dropdown then the date xfa.event.change value will be the whole date and therefore longer than one character.
I couldn't access your sample but if you were to set an display picture for the date field to something other than date{YYYY-MM-DD} then a valid date will have a formattedValue that is different than the rawValue.

I need help highlighting an expiration date on my Numbers '09 spreadsheet. I want the text/fill of a cell to change color when the expiration date of an item is within 180 days of the current date.

I need help highlighting cells on my Numbers '09 spreadsheet. I want the cell text/fill to change color when the date is 180 days or less from the current date. I already have a cell with the current date in it. I also know how to change the fill/text colors. All the cells have been formatted to show date only. I am having trouble with the formula. I can get to the Conditional Formatting menu and select "With Dates" but after that I am lost. Can anyone help?
Thank you for any assistance.

Set a Conditional Format rule as shown in the illustration below. The rule has been applied to all dates in column B of the table.

How do I insert the current date to hidden field?

I have a form for updating personal information. There is a field in the table called "dateupdated" that I would like to have on the form as a hiddent field that will automatically get the latest date (now).
Any idea's how I can set the hiddden field to current date?
Thanks, Dennis

You don't need a hidden field to do that. Depending on the database you're using, you can either use a TIMESTAMP column (in MySQL) that is automatically updated, or you can use a SQL function to insert the current date.
For example, in PHP, you can use NOW() like this in a SQL query:
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO date_test (created, message) VALUES (NOW(), %s)",
GetSQLValueString($_POST['message'], "text"));

How can I make iCal in Lion open to the current date?

I just updated from Snow Leopard to Lion and have had all of the frustrations with changes to iCal that are well-documented here and elsewhere. One issue I haven't seen addressed, however, is a new behavior after quitting and re-starting.
Previously, no matter what month/day/week I was viewing when I quit iCal, it would open the next time to the current (month/day/week). Now, it opens to whatever date(s) I was last viewing when I quit.
This is highly annoying - 99% of the time, if I quit iCal while looking at (some date 6 months into the future), that is NOT the date I'm looking for when I re-launch. It's much more consistent behavior to always re-open to the current date, in whatever view (month/day/week) I previously used. So if today I launch iCal and I'm thinking about adding an event a month in the future, I open iCal, change to month view if needed, and go forward one month. This is the way iCal always worked previously. Instead, the version in Lion might leave me on any random month, depending on what I was doing when I closed the program the last time, and so I have to figure out "what month/week am I looking at?" before I know how to navigate. Very irritating. (As is the move of the forward/back buttons away from the month/day/week buttons, necessitating that I move the cursor to two different areas of the screen in order to navigate. Whose idea was THAT?)
I haven't found a preference to resolve this bizarre behavior change. Can anyone help?

Hi,
I don't know of a preference, but have you used ⌘-T in iCal?
Best wishes

How do I create a new calendar for the current year, using last years calendar's birthday's/photos and comments from the lower pages?

Each year for the past 5 years I make a family calendar and send copies to all he family members around the globe. I hate that I have to recreate all the birthdays and special occasions from scratch, and re-drag all the photos onto these dates, in the lower half of the page of each month on the new calendar. How can I create a new calendar for the current year and port all of these photos/comments into the new calendar from last years calendar, to save having to redo all this work!! I am not talking about the upper half page of the photos only...I am referring to the calendar page of each month.
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Open iWeb so you see your original site in the left hand pane. Use the File->New Site menu option to create a new site. Give it the name you want.
Now select a page in your original site and type Command+D. That will duplicate the page. Drag the duplicate page down to the new site and rename it as needed. Do that for the other pages you need in the original site.

"Current browser"? When viewing anything, or just when using an APEX app?
Ans .. Just when using apex app....even if the apex app is minimised ..The current browser will be the one where I am using apex app...
What i am looking for some scheduler .. to check ..in the table every 5 minute for change if there is a change..then a popup alert be shown...
Split it into [at least] 2 components, database and browser. I'd expect someone calling themself a "DBA Architect" to have some ideas about the database side of things, even if not clued up on JavaScript and AJAX?
I dont think its a database isssue... When i say to check every 5 minutes ..it could be easily done via dbms_scheduler ...I am having issue in getting the popup alert message...
in apex... Dont know wether there is a plugin like modal window(available from skill builder) which shall help in this scenario,.Or might be have to use java scripting and ajax ..
and if it is that (Java scripting and Ajax) .....then shall have to be familiar with java scripting and Ajax...and this shall be a bit time consuming..
Had a feeling this could be accomplished via java scripting and ajax.. ...but still looking for some easy way..
