Javascript button code

Hello all, I am very new to the whole application express experience. I am finding it abit confusing in that I do not feel that I have total ownership of the code and scripting. I am trying to figure out how to create a button and when I click on the button I call a javascript function that will take the selected values from a listbox and add them to another field. I have seen what Carl did and it is exactly what I want, but I have no idea how to implement his source code.
Can some please explain to me at a low level how I can create a button and on clicking call a js function.
Thank-you all in advance.

For region buttons (as opposed to item buttons), go to the URL Redirect attribute on the Button definition page and enter the target as URL and put in the call to your Javascript function as javascript:foo(); to launch that function when the button is clicked. Define the function in the Page Header, Region header or anywhere else on the page.
For item buttons, this is not possible. Item buttons are meant to submit the page only, you cannot call your custom Javascript function before submitting the page.

Dreamweaver CS3- Add this button code help

Hi, I have a problem in Dreamweaver CS3. The problem is that when I insert my add this button code, in to the codeing area, it does not work.
When I open my page in chrome, it simply says 'more shraeing services'. I will copy the code, in to this discussion. I would be greaftful if someone
can help me resolve this problem, so I can get the add this button to work on my site. The final bits of code are as follows-

Javascript buttons and links no longer work in Firefox after latest update

Whenever I try to use a javascript button or link, nothing happens, I just get a message in the bottom bar such as: "javascript:window.close();" telling me what the command is, but when I click on it, nothing happens. I cannot close windows in social security or in any other program using javascript. This has happened since the last upgrade to Firefox 11. I even tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling (using the Mozilla instructions to '''completely''' remove Firefox) a fresh Firefox eleven, to no avail. I made sure javascript was completely enabled in tools/options/content

I have a similar problem like this. I dont know what the deal is but since some type of either add on upgrade or firefox upgrade i get notifications to install flash when i try to launch anything from google music. I did everything you can think of including uninstalling, reinstalling both the add on "No Script" Firefox itself, ran several diagnostic programs to ensure it wasnt any type of malware, reinstalled Adobe Flash 11, Verified Java version. I even tried to play music from google music in IE8 and that worked so its clearly Mozilla and its add ons. I disabled No Script and Google Music miraculously started working fine. This is pretty irritating considering I do everything in my power to ensure I dont get hit with any type of malware, virus, spyware, etc and No Script is definitely an Add on i like to use for that very reason since Firefox no longer supports the Norton Web Tracker add on. Any fix for this foolishness would be great, thanks!!

Paypal button code

Hello,
I have Paypal code that allows me to sell 3 books, listed on one menu, all for the s.ame price, $17
I need to add another book that costs $22.
Please, can someone help me with the code?
Thanks
Alida

If the block of code for the paypal button is basicly unreadable, then it is encrypted and you need create the button in the PayPal account. If you go to the account, you will see that it's all pretty intuitive. Then copy/paste the code PayPal generates into your web page in code view.
If the button code is readable, then you can create a new button just by changing the obvious values, such as
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="22.00"/> for the amount.
. . . or, you can also create a non-encrypted button in PayPal, just like an encrypted button, and paste the code into your page (in code view of course).

When will the 'disable javascript' button return?

The disable javascript button was in firefox 22.
It was disabled in 23, and still in 24. I am part or the user community who wants it back! I read on previous question/threads about it being disabled and not returning. :-(
Really sad :-( !!!!
It was simple and it worked.
Why do you deprive the community of a liked security feature?

Background information about why that pref was removed from options. <br />
http://limi.net/checkboxes-that-kill/
Just install an add-on or work through about:config to switch it on and off.

Adobe Javascript buttons does not work after deploying by ADS

Hi,
I have a dynamic PDF with adobe javascript " addInstance (1) ". In the preview of Adobe Lifecycle the PDF works like it should. However when I deploy the PDF in Developer studio the button is working anymore. It looks like the PDF isnt dynamic after deployment.
I have tried to add the following code , but it isnt working:
IWDInteractiveForm iForm1 = (IWDInteractiveForm)view.getElement("InteractiveForm1");
iForm1.setDynamicPDF(true);
Also, the properties of the PDF is set to Interactief Form, and XDP preview format is Dynamic PDF.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thank in advance.

//@@begin javadoc:wdDoModifyView
Hook method called to modify a view just before rendering.
This method conceptually belongs to the view itself, not to the

Exit button code not working in published captivate file

Hi,
I have created a elearning module in captivate 8. I have an exit button at the end of the module. The button has the inbuilt code ''on success - exit''. When I publish this file to swf or AICC format, this exit button doesnot work. Please help!

have you confirmed that this javascript code ( only
javascript code in html, no swf) works?
in some cases the window.close() statement works only for
popup windows. so make sure of it.

Acrobat Javascript button not loading when PDF is opened in browser

We have a requirement to have a custom print button in Acrobat Reader 9.1.3. We've created this via a JavaScript file stored in the users application data Adobe javascript folder. The button appears when Acrobat is started up normally and works as expected. However when opening a pdf file via Internet Explorer 7 acrobat is loaded inside the browser but the button does not appear automatically. Instead we need to right click on the tool bar and select Add on tools for the button to appear. Once loaded it works as expected.
Now I was wondering is there a way to make the button to appear automatically when acrobat is launched from within IE as my users are getting a bit annoyed now. I've been searching all over the place and can't find a solution to this.
Am hoping someone here might have an idea as to what the problem might be. I've attached the code I'm using below.
Thanks in advance
app.addToolButton({
cName: "myToolButton",
cExec: "printGreen()",
cEnable: true,
cTooltext: "Print to Green",
cLabel: "Print to Green"
global.objDoc = this;
printGreen = app.trustedFunction (
function()
app.beginPriv();
var objPrintParams = this.getPrintParams();
objPrintParams.printerName = "\\\\burns\\prn-cash-copier";
objPrintParams.interactive = objPrintParams.constants.interactionLevel.automatic;
this.print(objPrintParams);
app.endPriv();

OK... I'm still puzzled. There seems to be something else that controls whether Acrobat JavaScript runs or not.
If I'm loading a pdf stream though a http GET, JavaScript in Acrobat is run even when the setting in Edit->Preferences is disabled.
<body>
<iframe height=600 width=400 src = "http://<some servlet that returns a pdf stream>" />
</body>
If I'm loading the pdf from a file...
<body>
<iframe height=600 width=400 src = "<pdf file path>" />
</body>
... the expected warning (that Adobe javascript is disabled) pops up
The http response in the first case is something like...

Back button- code

hi all , i created a custom page. on click of an url on seeded page i traverse the page to my custom page.
Now i need to place a button/link such that i must go to previous page.
How to do this using javascript in OAF. can any one send me the code for this.
i know that in destination URI we need to set this . But no idea of implementing this.
can any one send me this code...

rbojja,
the url param which you are talking about is to maintain in a session in CO file right.
No, i just gace u an option to utilise session, but as u are directing flow through personalization, u don't need this.What i am referring is different. i must pass this url through personalization to custom page as url param.
I didnt write any CO file.No custom code
>>>>>>
What Tapash and I m refrerring is that in the link in ur sedded page, which u have added through personilization i believe, add a url param say A and store the url of the seeded page in it. Now in ur custom page CO u can retrieve this url param A and use it in ur code logic.
I hope i m clear!

Anyone got a clue what’s happening? I was wondering

What I want to achieve is something very basic, done n times
on the web, but its strange that its not working on my machine. I
am getting popups through getURL function and on HTML links but not
from swf/javascript links. This includes linking both to the
webpages on the internet e.g. google and pages on my machine. I
have tried three different ways of achieving this and am attaching
thecode. Can someone look at the files please and see what’s
wrong/spot something I overlooked? I will be extremely grateful.
Here is the code in the fla's (and html in one case). No
facility to attach files else i would have done so. Though the
flas/swf/html files can be downloaded from:

Simple Button Code

I have a .fla movie with 4 frames containing a different
movie clip each - In my "Actions" pane I have a script written as
such:
home.services.enabled=false;
about.services.enabled=false;
contacts.services.enabled=false;
the "home" movie clip is located in frame 1
the "about" movie clip is located in frame 2
the "contacts" movie clip is located in frame 3
The home code works and disables the "services" button in the
movie clip / but the other two do not disable for some reason in
the other movie clips.
Can anyone shed some light on the problem - do I need to tell
the code to look in Frame 2 and 3 or . . . ?
Thanks In Advance!

execute the code on the frames where your movieclips are
instantiated or put your movieclips on frame 1 where your code
exists.

Correct, you need to encrypt then sign.

What's wrong with this button code

Dear All,
I am trying to set up a button handler for many buttons
rather just one. The
intention of this code is to say if I press Load1 to Load40
that button and
only that button's alpha should change to 50%. This code
makes them all 50%
alpha when the frame loads rather than on the onPress event.
Can someone please help me out with this one?
i = 0;
while (i<40) {
this["Load"+i].onPress = btnEvaluate(this["Load"+i]);
++i;
function btnEvaluate(target_btn:Button) {
target_btn._alpha = 50;
Thanks again.

Make sure that you do not block [[JavaScript]]
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")
