More information regarding HTTP Submit button

Hello All ,
I am trying to learn the fucntionalities of a HTTP Submit button . I have designed a simple form which contains only one text field which will be used to enter the UserID .After entering the User ID the user has to click on the submit button . In the URL I have given the address of the server which is on another system . I have created a simple table in MySQL 5 which contains only one column as the UserID.I have no IIS installed in my system . So after clicking the submit button the data is not upadted in the table . And some weird results are shown . I have not used any data binding here . I am totally confused . What should I do ?? Any suggestions ??
Thanks .

Well, if you can surf to http://localhost, it means you already have a webserver running. Otherwise, you will have to install one. There's a variety of options besides IIS: Apache and Lighthttp are both free and open-source.

HTTP Submit Button vs event.target.submitForm

Dear All,
I have a problem that looks like I would need some expert help to resove.
I have designed a small Form with Acrobat LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2
The plan is people to fill out the form and submit it to a script on a web page.
Here is the problem.
When I insert a regular HTTPSubmit button. Everithing is working just fine. All th fields are submited, and I can process them from there with my script.
However, when I try to make a regular button and add javascript to the click event.
event.target.submitForm({cURL: "http://mysite/myscript.php", cSubmitAs:"HTML", cCharSet:"utf-8"});
The form is submited but non of the fields are.
As an example output from REQUEST array in PHP.
With the regular HTTP Submit button I get:
Array
    [familyname] => 1
    [SubjectNumber] => 2
    [Site] => 3
While with the above javascript I get:
Array
    [form1] => Array
            [0] =>
Looks like with the Javascript I somehow cannot submit the actuall fields.
Finally, let me tell you the reason why I even want to use Javascript instead of the regular HTTP Submit button.
My plan is so people can actually change the location where to submit the form.
From what I read if I use a regluar submit button, the URL must be hardcoded and cannot be changed (selected, by the user dinamically)
While if I use javascript then I can easily have a text field where people can enter the site where they want to submit the form and use it.
Thank you very much for your help
Please let me know if you need any further information

Hey gays, thanks for answering.
However, looks like I still have problems.
When I insert a regluar HTTP submit button, it asks for the URL or it will give error.
Anyhow, if I leave the URL setting blank, and try to execute the code u mentioned, I get a messege, "submit canceled" and nothing is happening,
And if I enter something in the URL, looks like it still overites the code and submits the form the the hard coeded url.
In addition, the regular submit button does not even allow me to enter code in the click even, so I did enterend in the mose in even,
as to execute the code before the button is clicked.
In addition I also tried to enter the even in a text field exit which I was hoping to use so the user can enter their own url.
In other words.
could please be more specific.
On which even shown I enter the code.
p.s.
Finaly,
in Form Calc
If I enter this on the mouse enter of the button:
form1.SCOPA_p2.HTTPSubmitButton1.event__click.#submit.#target = form1.SCOPA_p2.HTTPSubmitButton1_txt.rawValue;
I get error accessor form1.SCOPA_p2.HTTPSubmitButton1.event__click.#submit.#target is unknown
Any other thoughts
Thanks

URL for configuration in HTTP SUBMIT button --urgent

Hi All,
I am in development of a urgent interactive form and I am new this. My aim is to build a interactive form ( SFP) and then place a HTTP Submit button and post the data back .
I went through the documentation and understood that W can send data in XML format back and in the server end we need to write the program to read it .. Writing progaram is ok for me . but I need to know What is the URL I in the HTTP button ( is it IP of the server ) or some other details .. how will this trigger my custom code ...
Regards
Abhilash

Hi Abhilash,
URL is url of your page, for example http://www.mydomain.com/mypage.htm. You can read more in Adobe LiveCycle Designer Help. Nevertheless the control Button from group Standard is better. Set property Control Type in tab Field to Submit and then fill new tab Submit.
If you use WebDynpro for online scenario you needn't this buttons. In such case use a button Submit from the group Web Dynpro ActiveX (if you use xACF layout) or a button Submit from the group Web Dynpro Native (if you use ZCI layout).

HTTP Submit Button - How to post data to an IIS Server

Hello,
I have created a simple form in LiveCycle designer. The form only has some check boxes, radio buttons and text fields for users to fill out. Everyone in my office is on webmail so the Email Submit button is not a smooth option for getting the xml data back to me.
I would like to use the HTTP Submit button to allow users to submit their form data back to me but I am having trouble. I would like the xml files to end up in a directory on the web server.
I set up an IIS 6 server and granted the Write right to the anonymous web user account. When I fill out the PDF form and click the HTTP Submit button it doesn't seem to work. Are there any special configuration changes I need to make to my IIS server to allow this data to be posted?
Should this plan work? Should I be able to have users use the HTTP Submit button to post their data right to my IIS web server or is there some Adobe server I need to buy for this simple form? Also, I noticed that when I configure a standard button and set the Control Type to "Submit", there is an option on the Submit Tab to change the Submit As setting to "PDF". Does this mean that my users can fill out my form with Acrobat Reader and HTTP Submit the form to my web server as a PDF complete with their data? If not that's fine, I would be sufficiently happy if the users could post their XML files to the web server so I can open them in the form with Acrobat Professional.
I am lost and would appreciate any good feedback.
Thanks,
Steve

I think the problem may be missing what "submit" means. Submitting a
PDF form, like submitting an HTML form, sends information to a web
program or script, like an ASP, a CGI or a PHP. It does not just "save
to the server", which seems to be what you are trying to do.
Do you have the LiveCycle Form Manager product? If not I recommend the
LiveCycle Designer forum: more folk there to help.

I'd also be happy if this could work with Apache; it doesn't need to be IIS. I guess my main issue is that I don't know how to get either web werver to accept data in an HTTP post and save it as a file.
Also, I noticed that when I configure a standard button and set the Control Type to "Submit", there is an option on the Submit Tab to change the Submit As setting to "PDF".

HTTP Submit Button (beginner question)

I have been working with livecycle for a week or so now and got most of the program down. I have a simple form that uses about 10 text box fields that I want to have on a website say www.thisismysite.com/info.pdf now some where on that pdf there is a submit button that links to a url. Is there a way to have the form be submitted via e-mail through http or have it dump onto a database somewhere on my iis server? That way I would be able to compile all the data from xml form into the appropriate pdf and populate all the fields? Similar to an aspx submit form that submits via e-mail.. Any help would be greatly appreciated.. (I dont want it to be email submit button because the person who submits would have to have an email client such as outlook and thats how we currently do it.)

Welcome the LiveCycle! There is under the "Standard" section of the Object Library a HTTP Submit Button that you can place, with this you would be able to point the document towards a URL (the database location on your server) where you would like the form to be sent upon submission.

HTTP submit button

Hi all,
I am new to designer and am working to change our static PDF files to interactive ones. The goal would be for a user to fill out the form then submit it to our website, which would place it in a database. I am running IIS 5.0 and have used ASP, but am not sure what form the PDF information will take or how to make use of it. Any suggestions or hints would be very appriciated.

Hi folks,
I seem to be having a similar problem... I'm using Adobe Designer 7 to create a form and submit it to a script on my web server, where I will capture the POSTed data. I'm experimenting with target scripts written in ColdFusion MX and PHP 5.
I too get POST data in an "annoying format," and had to dump it out as a lump to figure out what was going on. Normally, I'd have access to form field values by referencing them like so, in ColdFusion and PHP respectively:
#form.myfieldname#
$_POST["myfieldname"]
The fieldnames I get from the Acrobat form looks like this:
FORM1[0].MYFORMNAME[0].MYFIELDNAME[0]
ColdFusion will allow me to get at the field value by using this as a key, but PHP chokes--it seems to interpret the POST data as an array with a single, apparently empty element.
I've made sure that the Acrobat form's submit button is configured to send POST data, and I've tried every manipulation I can think of to get it to send differently. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to clean this up?
TIA,
Nick.

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes, and now my mail won't open. It displays this message now-You have Mail version 5.3 (1283/1278). It can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.7.4 (Build 11E53). For more information, click the Help button. Strange.

STRANGE, RIGHT?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
They are different problems because I doubt that iTunes has been able to modify Mail, that has nothing to do with iTunes.
As you are running 10.7.4, download and install OS X 10.7.5, the most recent Lion version > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1582 After installing the update, you should be able to run Mail

How to get more information regarding a service call

So are all of your services working now?

Here are the gory details. This is how I described the problem when I called for service: 'I am a u-verse customer. I have TV, internet and phone. There was an outage of all services for 15 hours. Voice and TV returned. But not my broadband internet connection.' Tech arrived. Used his i-pad and says internet is 'working'. I tell him my computer, tablet, etc etc will not connect. He says he is writing down that internet works. My devices not his concern he says. Well OK I say forget my devices but I want ALL the TV channels that are part of my u-verse package to work before you leave. He says 'but TV is working'. I say no, this is not true unless ALL the channels I pay for are working, --please check this channel (interactive Country Deep--530 in my channel lineup). He says oh that channel is probably not part of your package. Excuse me I say. I pay over $200 a month for my services and U300 is my package and it most certainly includes the Country Deep channel which is not working (it is spinning, spinning) and which I do watch. I know from the user perspective that there is a difference between the Country Deep channel which loads data before it plays and the 'normal' channels. He looks at me like I have two heads. However I felt quite certain that if he took care of the problem with that interactive channel then I would be able to get all my devices to work. He threatened to depart because I was not listening to him. However he was not listening to me either. He would not 'own' that there was any u-verse problem. Since this did not make sense to me and I had already invested at least eight hours of my life attempting to get help I was frustrated and I will certainly confess to not 'listening' to him very well. Unfortunately I then had to leave and go to work. He left no information about what was done and no information with the person I left in charge but it took over 4 hours and apparently a number phone calls to other people. And I do know he swapped out my DVR because I lost all recordings but that is all I know. I tried to look online at the workorder but no further information was available.
