LiveCycle refuses to link web-based Xml as datasource?

Hello All,
I have an issue with populating my dropdown list through xml. Here's what I have done:
1) Wrote a .xsd file
2) Wrote a .xml file
2) Set up the Xml Data Connection to target my xsd, embed the Xsd
3) Went to "Form Properties > Preview > Data File", set link there as http://exampleHost/exampleXml.xml (It wont work)
The objective is get the Pdf dropdown field to: Target a global xml - Which can be updated when needed.
It seems that it would only accept a Local XML datalist - Which defeats the purpose of this project.
*I cant use the OLEDB connection due to functional requirements.
*I have tried WSDL but it's really too complex for my profession - I work as a graphic designer (Don't ask why I'm coding this Pdf.. lol)
XML Source:
<?templateDesigner DefaultPreviewDataFileName ..\product_list.xml?>
Does anyone know a tag; To make it grab my product_list.xml off a webserver instead of local?
I have Googled/Readup/Researched as much as possible and I am at my wits end trying to solve this issue.
Deadline is today and I have been banging my head against the dryer in the toilet.
ANY help would be appreciated please. :/
Thanks!
(Ps: Here's a nice link with some form tuitorials - Doesnt solve my problem but may help others - http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/enterprise-modeling/dynamic-dropdown-lists-in-adobe-livecycle- designer-32393#sectionB)

Good Day Srini,
Thank you for your reply and your PDF - It is a big relief in some ways.
Your statement provides the idea and supports what I have thought out too. Thanks again! (:
I downloaded the file, opened it in LiveCycle Designer - Looked at the way you made your XML data connection.
Eg:
1) Under preivew data, you have set a connection to http://www.w3schools.com/XML/note.xml
2) Inside the Xml Source, I noticed another set data connection to the same url.
3) Saw your bindings
4) Saw your Xml version
5) Saw Pdf version and static/dynamic type
It all makes sense - However, when I load your PDF in Designer - It still keeps returning "Sample data file could not be found".
I tested in Acrobat Reader and Acrobat Pro - The drop down field has no data either.
So I was thinking it may be my Network's issue since you can get it working.
I ran a test at home and at the office. The test results at both places were still negative.
What do you think? I feel as though I have missed out a hidden key point.
Thank you!

Web Based Messageboard (JSP, XML, XSLT) - Just Looking For Advice Please!

I have a general question - I am not looking for any code, just some advice if possible. I am studying on a Masters course and I have been given an assignment to do which I am having difficult getting started. I have worked a lot with Java up until now, however this is the first time I have had to JSP on my course.
My current assignment is that I am required to create a simple web based message board, using JSP and XML, which allows users to post messages to the board, and also to reply to messages. The content of the message board is stored in an XML file, and there is no database involved. The message data needs to be formatted for viewing in a browser using XSL transformations.
I am stuck as to how to go about starting the project, and this is all I am asking for advice in. I have created the basic XML file which has some preliminary data stored within it, and I have created an XSL stylesheet to transform this data, however I am stuck with the JSP. Do I need to create a seperate JSP page for each page of the website? How does this link in with the XSLT?
I would welcome and really appreciate any advice, but I stress that I am not looking for anyone to give me any code or anything like that.
Thanks.

You can use XSLT to convert XML to HTML. Then include this HTML in your JSP. Further on you've a plain HTML form with an input field for a message which you submit to a servlet. In the servlet validate/convert/whatever this message and add it to the XML file and then forward/redirect the request back to the JSP.

Convert LiveCycle Designer Filleable Form to Web-based Form??

I have a fillable form that was created from scratch using LiveCycle Designer, and I'd like to convert it to a web-based form which I can then post on my website and email the link to others. Is it possible to convert a fillable form to a web-based form?

No, you would have to recreate it in FormsCentral.

How do I get "mailto:" links to work with my web based email?

I use the web based email from godaddy.com called workspace. I can't get the mailto: links to work with firefox. I did find a code that makes the correct compose window to open up but it doesn't input the email address.
Also, a related problem with my email is that you can't copy an email address and then paste the email address into the email. Pasting is not allowed with firefox but works ok with Internet Explorer

How to link folio to web-based app builder?

Hello,
I'm building a native Android app through the web-based App Builder (on Windows machine). That part went well. But how can i link my folio from within InDesign CC to that app? I expected the App Builder to ask me where to find it, but it didn't. So now, i created just an empty app ... Anybody?

In the General tab, you specify the Application account and password, as described in the Building native Android apps help article.
Application Account / Password. Select the Application account (also referred to as a "Title ID") used to publish the folios that will appear in the app library.
Have you used the Account Administration tool to configure and Adobe ID with an Application role? And have you used Folio Producer to publish one or more folios in that account as Public? If so, those published folios will appear in your native Android app when you download it and add it to a device.
You can also download the Android version of the Adobe Content Viewer from the Google Play Store to test folios in your account. Keep in mind that the native viewer is still catching up to the iOS viewer's feature set. Again, these limitations are described in that article.

Authentication between Single Sign-On and Web based applications

Hi everyone,
I need to create a way in Portal 10g (10.1.2.0.2) that allow me to do the following:
Once the user is logged on Portal (against Single Sign-On - SSO) he doesn't need to retype his username/password when he access a web based application throught the portal, in my case, an ASP application (not .NET, just ASP).
I made a test creating a External Application in SSO and after publishing this portlet (external application) inside portal.
It worked, BUT I was prompted to inform username/password to log on the aplication.
So, the user end up entering his password twice.
Does anybody know a way to acomplish this task?
The documentation I'm researching is:
Oracle Application Server Single Sign-On
Administrator's Guide
10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
B14078-02
Oracle Application Server Single Sign-On
Security Guide
10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
B13999-03
Thank you very much,
Diogo Santos.

have figured out how to secure any HTML, ASP, PHP, CFM, etc. web page again Portal / OID using the PDK toolkit.
Using AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) and one Oracle Stored Procedure just adding a simple Javascript call to any HTML, ASP, PHP, etc. web page can secure it via Oracle SSO (OID). Access to any secured web page will require that it to be linked from an authenticated Portal session or a page opened in an authenticated Portal session.
This process can be easily modified to add in group security etc. This is just my starting point.
1) Create a stored procedure
# Make sure it has access to portal.wwctx_api.is_logged_on
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE login_ajax_check (
display_error IN number default NULL) AS
BEGIN NULL;
If portal.wwctx_api.is_logged_on = false then
htp.prn('DENY');
ELSE
htp.prn('ALLOW');
END IF;
Exception when others then htp.p('DENY');
END;
2) Use this Javascript in any page you wish to secure.
<-- Begin Paste Here -->
<script>
var allowgo=2
function ajaxCallRemotePage(url)
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
// Non-IE browsers
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.onreadystatechange = processStateChange;
req.open("GET", url, false);
req.setRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since", "Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT");
req.send(null);
else if (window.ActiveXObject)
// IE
req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
req.onreadystatechange = processStateChange;
req.open("GET", url, false);
req.setRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since", "Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT");
req.send();
else
return; // Navigateur non compatible
// process the return of the "ajaxCallRemotePage"
function CheckPortal()
ajaxCallRemotePage('[Your page calling the procedure from above]');
function processStateChange()
if (req.readyState == 4)
if (req.status == 200)
if (req.responseText.substring(0,4) == 'ALLO')
allowgo = 0;
else
allowgo = 1;
function doPage()
if (allowgo==1)
window.location='[Your login or error page]';
CheckPortal();
doPage();

That's it!!! Super easy. It works great too.

Embed Web based reviews into PDF

We are using the ESM solution accelerator which initiates web-based reviews. The comment files created by Acrobat are stored as RSS feeds. At the end of a stage, I need to deliver a self-contained PDF with all the comments. I'm looking for DDX or the process to do that. I have the logic to get at all the supporting files (PDF, comment files) but, I can't seem to figure out how to "import" the RSS feeds as annotations into the source PDF.
Thanks,
Charles

The comments are stored in xml in the review zone provider.
You can use a DDX to import the comments in the PDF.

Fat Client-Web based architecture design help ?????

Hellow experts
i have recently joined a java project
which is a fat client-web based application.
clients can work from any location or place using the internet
they will connect to the web server which will be provide the data
to the clients application
i am working on the improvement of architecture n design of the project
pls help me in deciding the best and the fastest way to develop this application further.
i am designing a framework based on my experience and
am also doing some research on whats latest which can accelerate
and improve the development process.
here's what i have and want to know what u think abt it.
pls suggest some new good frameworks if you are aware of.
Technologies to be used
Fat client front end : Java Swings
Web server : Tomcat,Struts
Database : Mysql
FrameWorks
Client side
XXXView.Java(is the GUI layer) (where xxx is any module specific name)
|
XXXWebHandle.java(this java file will have the code to
connect to the webserver using the apache httpclient)
it will call a struts action file specifically
the data collected from the gui components will be transformed
into xml and sent to the struts action file.
Server Side
xxxaction.java(this file will parse the xml data from client side
and save it to the datbase using jdbc statements
it will also retrive data and metadata from database using jdbc queries
and convert it into xml and send it back as http response to the XXXwebhandle.java
which then parses back the xml data and puts it on the GUI components of XXXview.java files.
THe Problems
1) the conversion of database query resultset to xml at server and the xml back to fields data
takes a lot of time and is cumbersome to code as we need code the xml
defination pattern for every data exchange between server and client.
we need to remove XML .................is it possible????
can we send data back to client as java objects and if yes then how??.
2) right now we are making JDBC calls to mysql database using a common Utility class file
created for handling all kinds of sql statements and return the data via a hashtable object.
We need to use a ORM tool here............dont know which to use and how to use.
heard of hibernate and EJB.pls suggest which one to use
Overall i would appreciate if someone can suggest me good architecture.
is there any framework readily available for developing these kinda apps
pls guide or give me links where i can get info abt this.
thanks

Okay. As an aside, you can 'fatten' up a standard web page with technologies such as Pushlets or Ajax.

IMO, you should take a look at Eclipse's SWT in addition to Java's Swing. SWT has outstanding performance and looks native. Struts is not a web server. Place that entry instead down in 'frameworks'. MySQL is a good database, but I prefer Postgres, which is also free and implements more of ANSI SQL.
FrameWorks
Place Struts here. Also consider using Spring on your server side. BTW, what is Struts doing other than acting as a Controller? Presumably your fat client is the View. No?
Client side
XXXView.Java(is the GUI layer) (where xxx is any
module specific name)
|
XXXWebHandle.java(this java file will have the code
to
connect to the webserver using the apache
httpclient)
it will call a struts action file specifically
the data collected from the gui components will be
transformed
into xml and sent to the struts action file.
Any thoughts of using either RMI, SOAP or JAXB since you will have Java objects on both ends of client and server?
Server Side
xxxaction.java(this file will parse the xml data from
client side
and save it to the datbase using jdbc statements
it will also retrive data and metadata from database
using jdbc queries
and convert it into xml and send it back as http
response to the XXXwebhandle.java
which then parses back the xml data and puts it on
the GUI components of XXXview.java files.
So, a database exists. Fairly normal stuff there.
THe Problems
1) the conversion of database query resultset to xml
at server and the xml back to fields data
takes a lot of time and is cumbersome to code as we
need code the xml
defination pattern for every data exchange between
server and client.
Again, take a look at JAXB, SOAP and/or XMLBeans.
we need to remove XML .................is it
possible???? Yes
can we send data back to client as java objects and
if yes then how??.RMI + Java Serialization or JAXB/SOAP/XMLBeans.
2) right now we are making JDBC calls to mysql
database using a common Utility class file
created for handling all kinds of sql statements and
return the data via a hashtable object.
No, no no. Hashtable (and all Maps) have no type-safety. You can introduce lots of programming errors casting from Object to another type. It is far better to create an actual Java object that will hold the data. It seems to take more time, but you will have far fewer runtime errors in your application during development, which IMO, actually speeds up the process overall.
We need to use a ORM tool here............dont know
which to use and how to use.

Hibernate and, to a lesser extent, JDO are popular now.
Overall i would appreciate if someone can suggest me

Rapidly? Hard to say. I would steer clear of full blown J2EE with EJB's or MDB's if you want to speed up development. Ruby on Rails also generates some press for rapidly putting sites together.

Conversion of forms5.0 to web based application

dear folks,
i have an existing application which runs on forms 5.0. i want to
convert it to a web based application. i do not want to rewrite
the scripts.if some of you could tell me the details about how to
go about it.

I am not sure if there is any tool to do that.
You can delete WebSphere specific xml files from ear/jar and open it in Weblogic's builder tool. Weblogic Builder is a GUI tool. Helps you assign values for deployment parameters, Transaction attributes, JNDI names and so on. Then you can generate deployment descriptors. Subsequently you can modify the descriptors as and when you want.

How can I distribute my web-based app properly?

I created a web-based application that contain CWGraph3D.ocx and CWAnalysis.ocx. My ComponentWork's version is 6.0. During development and compilcation, there is no problem (I developed my app. in VB6sp5). After that I use Package and Development Wizard of VB to create HTML page and its cab file. During this operation, I got the message mentioned that my CWAnalysis.ocx (only this ocx) doesn't match with the register in the registry. I just clicked on 'No' to accept this. Finally, I create LPK file to include in my html page file. My LPK file includes runtime licenses of CWArray, CWMatrix, CWComplex, CWDSP, and CWGraph3D. After I uploaded my app to web site, the other computers can load my web page, but it is the bla
nk page because something wrongs in the components. There is no any nofication or error from Internet Explorer. So I tried to test something to find out the problem. I remove CWAnalysis and redo all processes, it doesn't work. I remove CWGraph3D and redo again, it works! So I moved back CWAnalsysis, and redo it again, it doesn't work. I assume that there are some problems in ComponentWorks. But I don't know how to solve this problem.
Thank you.

So the error message basically says that CWanalysis control does not match with the information in the registry. Did a re-install help any? Is this the only development machine causing the problem. One thing to try is re-installing the control, by uninstalling Measurement Studio, unregister the cwanalysis.ocx ( using regsvr32), delete the ocx file, reboot and then re-install Measurement Studio. This would make sure that the controls get installed correctly.
Also, check out this link for dealing with issues of the Package and Deployment wizard.
I hope this helps

I use a web based PO system for work. It should let me see an image of scanned Invoice attached, but I can't seem to be able to from my home PC (e-Finance).

HI,
I use E-Finance as a web based application for managing company purchase orders.
It allows to drill into our Finance system and view Invoice documents that have been previously scanned.
I can do this using Internet explorer, but I don't seem to be able to in Firefox. I believe it to be linked to the Internet Security settings on the PC, but I cannot find in FIrefox similar options to those in the Advanced tab in Internet explorer.

It seems no one here is familiar with this application.
Which IE settings need to be changed? While Firefox doesn't have the same approach to security (e.g., by "zone") there may be some parallels.
In case the problem is the built-in PDF viewer introduced in Firefox 19, try the steps in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
Does that make any difference?

Looking for a web based filemanager (or similar).

Hello,
I have a small server at home hosting all my files and I am looking for a simple setup to be able to access these files from pretty much every where.
Usually I'm using ssh or sftp but the thought of being able to access the files through a web interface is really sounding good. So, I have been searching for a web based file manager and found a few, but none that really made me go wow.
The best so far is probably Ajaxplorer. One thing that I'm looking for though is a PAM authentication feature which Ajaxplorer doesn't have. Are there any web based file managers around that supports this?
Or... maybe I'm looking for the wrong things. Are there other nifty solutions available for accessing files on a remote folder through a web interface?

zenlord wrote:
If PAM authentication is all you're missing, why don't you setup http_auth?
THX for the suggestion, I was looking for something like this myself and the next version should have LDAP_auth - alrighty then!
Zl.
http_auth... do you have any nice links on how to use it? I've never heard of it
Ajaxplorer is quite nice after all and setting up repositories isn't all that bad. Looks like I'm sticking to it while I continue my search for another app.

I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
            "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
- I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
- in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.
If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.

WRT54G V6.0 Web Based Interface Issue

I'm trying to setup a WRT54G. I ran the SetupWizard which didn't work.
I can access the Web Based Interface at 192.168.1.1 , but when it appears (after putting in the admin password), the page doesn't properly load. The colors and some text comes up, but all of the tabs, buttons and links are missing (including the Save Settings button). I can't get to Administration page to restore the factory defaults or upgrade the firmware.
I've tried the pressing the reset button for 30 seconds about 100 times so far, and nothing has worked. I've tried this on 3 different computers, and my other 2 WRT54G's run properly on all of these computers.
I bought the router about 2 years ago and I just opened the box today.
What fixes are available?
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you are not able to see any Tab on your router setup page, If you have any Firewall or Antivirus installed on your computer you may disable it and then try to Login to your Router Setup page and check if you are able to see any Tabs on Routers GUI. If still not then Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable.
If you still face the same problem, Connect your other computer to the Router and try to access the router setup page and check if you are able to see any tabs on the router setup page. If stil the same problem on the 2nd computer then you need to Upgrade the firmware of your Router using TFTP tool.
First you need to Download 1.67 MB the Latest Firmware of your router.
TFTP tool which you can Download 44.3 KB (It will be named as BEFW11S4-v2_SetupWizard)
Double click the tftp.exe file and click run :
For Server- Enter the IP Address of the router that you assigned. By default, the router is 192.168.1.1...
For Password- Enter the password you assigned the router. By default, the router’s password is “admin”.
For File- Click the triple “…” button and browse for the .bin firmware file...
Click Upgrade button to start upgrading. A progress bar should show up to show the progress.
Once the Upgrade is done press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now Check if you are able to Login to your Routers GUI and able to see the Tabs on it.

2 player web-based Flash game problem

I have a two player web-based Flash game. The Flash calls a
JavaScript function on the webpage to get and store the user's IP.
Then an XML file with user's game data is loaded and parsed. The IP
address is used to identify which player is player 1 and which is
player 2 according to the XML file. There is a Java applet to send
and receive messages between the players.
The first player loads everything just fine. All the first
player's messages regarding the progress in loading different parts
of the code sent by the game for debugging are displayed in the
Java applet's text box, but none of the second player's messages
sent by the game for debugging are displayed.
The problem is that the second player's ActionScript code
appears not to be executing except that I do get a message in the
game that the XML file attempted to load but was not successful.
The IP address call is not made and no messages can be sent to the
other player. The second player's Java applet displays only the
messages for debugging that came from the first player's game and
any chat messages sent by the first player.
This problem always happens to the second player, never to
the first player. Both player's are always using IE6 or IE7.
Does anyone have some idea(s) what could cause only the
second player's ActionScript code not to execute and/or not to load
an XML file correctly?
This is just a general question, so any general answers would
be appreciated. Code specific answers are hopefully not required.
Thank You in advance.

Hi,
I am not very familiar with the multiplayer Game development. For multiplayer games, you'll need to set up a matchmaking server and have the clients connect to it. It can then pair them off and facilitate communications. If the clients have publicly available
network addresses then it can introduce them and they can talk directly to each other.There isn't anything built in for this so you'll need to either build your own or find a third party implementation. If you are using Unity3d then check out
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Components/net-MasterServer.html
Also, you can use Xbox services, and I find an article below:
