HTML submit button in a folio won't generate an email.

I have an HTML page with a form and submit button that creates an email with the results of the form.
In Safari on the iPad the form and submit button work, but when the HTML link is viewed in a folio page the submit button will not work, even though all the fields are fillable and working. The code is following.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
          <title>mailto Example</title></head>
<body>
<form action="mailto:[email protected]" method="post" enctype="text/plain" >
  FirstName:
  <input type="text" name="FirstName">
Email:<input type="text" name="Email">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>

First, the page is down, I just get a generic page.  Second you may need to reach out to your web host.  I see that you are using hosting from Intuit.  Being that they have a proprietary setup, some custom scripts may not work.
Third, once that is confirmed, if you are making this script I would recommend changing the $_REQUEST text in the sendmail to $_POST.  $_REQUEST means that your form can get spammed because they can pass the data via GET or POST.  The $_POST is just the first step to ensure the data came from your form.

  • Calling a method with a html Submit button

    hi guys,
    is it possible to call a method from a JSP file using a HTML submit button. I know i can call another website easily doing it this way, is there a similar way available to call a method once the button is clicked?
    FYI
    The method is in a bean file named jdbc. The methods name is getUsername.
    Nice one.
    <form action = <%jdbc.getUsername()%> <input type="submit" value="Submit">

    Dear friend,
    you mentioned that u need to call a method when submit button is clicked. Is the method dynamically created. If not so, then you can include the method on the submit button html file itself.

  • HTML submit button within PHP

    Hello,
    The first section of code below returns a message that says "The topic 'x' has not been added." if a user enters a topic that is not in my database.  I would like to give the user the option to add "x" to the database by clicking on an HTML submit button.  So I guess my problem is that I don't know how to add an HTML submit button within PHP that would post $name=$find to tprocess.php and then trigger the code in tprocess.php.  How do I do that?
    Thanks,
    John
    $anymatches=mysql_num_rows($result);
    if ($anymatches == 0)
    print "<p class=\"topic2\">The topic \"$find\" has not been added.</p>\n";
    print "<p class=\"topic2\">Add the topic \"$find\".</p>\n";
    <form action="tprocess.php" method="post">;
    $name=$find;
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">";
    </form>;
    Below is what I have on tprocess.php.  It is code that adds a topic to my database:
    if (isset($_POST['name']) && !empty($_POST['name'])) {
    mysql_connect("mysqlv10", "username", "password") or
    die(mysql_error());
    mysql_select_db("database") or die(mysql_error());
    $table = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['name']);
    $query = "CREATE TABLE `$table` (id INT(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, site VARCHAR(150) NOT NULL, votes_up BIGINT(9) NOT NULL, votes_down BIGINT(9) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(id), UNIQUE (site))";
    $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

    Just add it to a hidden field in the form. Sorry I don't know php, but in ASP you would use something like this:
    <% If  MyTestCondition = 1 Then %>
    <form action="tprocess.php" method="post">
    <input name="Find type="hidden" id="Find" value=<%=Find%> >
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">"
    </form>
    <%End If%>
    So I'm sure you could do something similar with PHP.
    Now, unrelated to your question, I am curious about this:
    $query = "CREATE TABLE `$table` (id INT(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, site VARCHAR(150) NOT NULL, votes_up BIGINT(9) NOT NULL, votes_down BIGINT(9) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(id), UNIQUE (site))";
    Are you creating new tables for each new topic and the bigger question, why    ??

  • Change Submit button to img and use as link for email?

    I'm trying to create a form using a submit button. I don't want to use the email link because of spoofing problems. How can I make this happen?

    Your stated question and your subject are out of synch - what is it you want to do?
    * use an image as a submit button?  If so, just insert an image field.
    * submit the form to produce an email without using the mailto - type link?  Then you would have to understand how to process form submissions using a script.
    There are only two ways to process form data -
    1.  Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
    2.  Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the form's data, b)
    process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a database, c) formulate and
    send an email to one or more email recipients, and d) redirect the visitor
    to some ending page
    Method 1 is quite simple, and is also the least reliable.  It depends both
    on your visitor having an email client already installed on their computer -
    this eliminates public computers, or home users without email clients
    installed (more and more it seems) - and on the installed email client responding to
    the mailto call.  It is not possible to use this method *and* send the visitor to a
    thank you page as well.
    Method 2a is the preferred method, since it eliminates the problems of method
    1, but it means that you have to grapple with server-scripting somehow (ASP,
    CF, PHP, perl, etc.).
    Method 2b would be to use some third-party form processing, like
    http://www.bebosoft.com/products/formstogo/.
    You would have to decide which of these methods is best for your needs,
    but if it's Method 2a, then start by asking your host what they provide for form
    processing.  If it's 2b, then read their FAQ/instructions carefully.

                      <a href="thankyou.html" class="link" onclick="sendmail.php"><span>Send</span></a></div>
        </form>
    The sendmail.php is
    <?php
    $name = $_REQUEST['name'];
    $email = $_REQUEST['email'];
    $phone = $_REQUEST['phone'];
    $message = $_REQUEST['message'];

  • URL submit button for PDF

    Where is the URL input for the submit button.  I only see the option for Email and internal server.  Thanks
    Wesley

    Hi Wesley,
    There is no way to edit the html for the Submit button. The button only shows up on the form when you open the form on the web (Distribute), or when you upload a PDF and have it enabled for data collection, at which point FormsCentral adds a Submit button to your PDF form on the page and location you identify.
    I hope that helps... let me know if I missed your meaning,

  • Struts submit button focus

    Hello
    I have following prob:
    a form with three buttons
    a submit (normal html-button)
    a cancel (struts html:cancel button)
    and a reset (struts html:reset button)
    since I need javascript to run before submitting
    and after the result of the javascript function deciding if submiting or not I used a submit html-button (I cannot stop the struts html:submit button from submitting even if a put a javascript onClick after the javascript function comes the submition (is there a way to stop it?)).
    For the other two buttons the struts html tags.
    Now if the user press enter (regardless where the focus is in the form) the cancel action is being activated (the form cancelled)
    if I use javascript to put the focus on submit, as soon as the user click on a text field (or any other form component) the "button group focus" moves to the cancel button!
    (regardless where was the focus is in the form)
    How can I get the "enter key focus" staying on submit?
    I already tried the struts <html:form ... focus="submitButton"> and it works at page-load-time BUT as soon as the user click on a text field (or any other form component) the "button group focus" moves to the cancel button ! ! !
    Is there a kind of "enter key" focus which works independent from the fields focus?
    Thanks!

    The regular way to cancel a javascript action is to return false from the onclick event.
    I don't see any reason it wouldn't work with html:submit
    ie
    function checkSubmit(){
      if ( checkIsOk){
        return true;
      alert("You got it wrong moron!");
      return false;
    <input type="submit" onclick="return checkSubmit()">

  • My submit button on my PDF form is greyed out (will not work) after posting link to PDF on my WordPress website. It works in Acrobat Reader just fine.

    This is where you can see the form as clicked through to from the WordPress website page:
    http://pinetreeplayers.com/ptp_new/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/submit-a-play.pdf
    The PDF file was created in Acrobat 11, with a submit button. The submit button is actioned to send the form via email. It works perfectly by itself if the form is opened in Acrobat Reader, but once I upload the PDF to my WordPress site the submit button is greyed out, and will not complete the action to send on-click.
    How can I fix this please - can anyone offer advice?

    Yes. They need to download Reader and then disable Google Chrome's internal PDF viewer and enable Adobe Reader.
    FireFox should also be configured to use Adobe Reader and not the internal PDF viewer.
    The internal viewers are created to process PDF documents by not including the features and code to process PDF forms.

  • Once you create a printable form in Acrobat Pro 9, how do you add a submit button?

    I have created printable PDF forms, but don't know how to add a submit button so they can be filled out and emailed. Currently if the people filling them out only have Reader they can only be printed out. They cannot be saved, and they cannot be emailed. Can the submit functionality be added in Adobe Acrobat Pro, or do you have to do that with a third party software?

    Yes, you can use the Extend Features in Adobe Reader, shown here but grayed out since I don't have a form open.
    When you do that, the people filling out the form will be able to Save a copy of the form for themselves and to forward a copy of the PDF to you. You might want to make a copy of the form first if you might have to make changes in the future since the Extended form cannot be edited directly.

  • Submit button issue in Acrobat 9 Pro

  • Email Submit Button doesn't use default email software

    When I click the Email Submit button, the form does not use my default email program (Eudora). Instead it uses an old hotmail account which I don't even use anymore.
    All other web pages bring up Eudora when I click on a mail link.
    Only Live Cycle documents do not.
    I have the latest version of LiveCycle.
    Is there a fix for this?

    When you click the submit button, do you get a window that has the title "Select Email Client"and has the options of "Desktop Email Application" and "Internet Email"? If not, does anything at all happen?
    Note that Mac users must have Acrobat or Reader installed and be viewing the PDF in Acrobat or Reader for it to work. Many (most?) Mac users have the Preview Application as their default PDF viewer, and it does not support many interactive features such as form submissions. Although some third-party PDF viewers for Windows support form submissions, many do not.
    For those that do not use PDF viewers that support form submissions, they will have to manually attach the document to an email message.

  • Help with submit button, signatures and locking fields

    https://acrobat.com/#d=sCcToPsLqquP0uePmVL1pQhttp://https://acrobat.com/#d=ZsRL5CeME*4iV3VHnvUFXw
    Well here's a doozy for ya. I have no idea what I'm doing as you will be able to see when you look at my form.
    What I want to happen is to have the user fill out the form, choose the operations manager and select submit button associated with the drop down box. All other dropdown boxes and submit buttons should be hidden. I need the form to lock so there are no edits except the signature field, the next dropdown box and submit button. I'd like to customize the email with a specific subject line and specify the email address based on the person selected from the drop down box. I'd like this to repeat itself until there are no more signature fields left. It is very important that this document follow the order specified.
    I tried to use an example Niall put out there to use regular buttons as submit buttons with script. I changed a couple things and it worked to submit the form based on the person selected but I still do not know how to lock the fields. Long story short, I broke what did work and don't know how to do what I really want to do or fix what had once worked. I don't understand javascript so please, if you're willing to help teach me, be patient and spell it out like i'm speaking a foreign language.
    Oh boy, even I don't want to do this. What a mess!

    I believe that you should re-post this in either the Forms or the Designer forum.  You are more likely to get the right folks to look at it there.
    Generally this forum is for building custom Document Service Component (DSC) plugins that extend the LiveCycle ES server side product.
