Multipage HTML forms

Hi,
I would like to design a dynamic form that will be rendered into HTML using LC forms. And also the output HTML is expected to be multipage. I have found some information in Livedocs but it would be helpful if you provide an example form design:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/acrobat_designer/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp .htm?context=Adobe_LiveCycle_Designer_Help&file=000989.html

Hi,
What is your problem about rendering?

Rendering multipage HTML form - error on pageDown()

I have a multi-page form redered as HTML. I followed the guidelines and placed on each subform the button with click event javascript containing xfa.host.pageDown(). It works fine in PDF, but when HTML is rendered, it does not work.
It causes " 'this._peer' is null or not an object" error in the browser, when button is clicked.
The HTML rendered by Form Service looks like:
<input class="fsc4 fsc10 fsc11 fsc2" id="NButton1_0" name="Button1[0]" onclick="return this._peer._clickfunc(\nxfa.host.pageDown();)" style="overflow: hidden; position: absolute; top: 101.6mm; left: 104.78mm; width: 28.57mm; height: 6mm; white-space: pre-wrap; " tabindex="203" type="button" value="Next" />
Is there any workaround for this behaviour?
Thanks
Alex

Make sure your Content Root URI is set to repository://
Make sure to add /Applications infront of your path.
The full path ContentRootURI + Form URL should have the following format:
repository:///Applications/ApplicationName/Version/FolderName/FormName.
In your case
repository:///Applications/ABCD POC/1.0/Forms/form_1.xdp.

Uploading an image to a servlet with out html form

Hello,
I had a look around the forum and could not find an answer to my question.
I am trying to unload an image that is in a byte array to a servlet. the image is on the mobile phone. the mobile phone does not have html form to upload the picture.
Is there any other way of uploading instead of using html form to invoke the servlet. It is just the connection bit that is confusing me. When the servlet is invoked then it can open an inputstream and take in the image.
I hope this is clear and that some one else has done it.
thanks
martin

search here and/or search google for "send byte array to servlet"
it's certainly easy to find as far as i can tell
first google result:

How can an applet retrieve the values of a HTML form shown in a JEditorPane

Hi,
I'm doing an applet that contains a JTree and a JEditorPane
among other components. Each node of the JTree represents some
information that is stored in a database, and whenever a JTree
node is selected, this information is recovered and shown in
the JEditorPane with a html form. To make the html form,
the applet calls a servlet, which retrieves the information of
the node selected from the database. This information is stored
like a XML string, and using XSLT, the servlet sends the html
form to the applet, which shows it in the JEditorPane.
My problem is that I don't know how I can recover new values
that a user of the application can introduce in the input fields
of the html form. I need to recover this new values and send them
to another servlet which store the information in the database.
If someone could help me I'd be very pleased.

How can i get the value from a HTML Form

hi,
I am using HTML form (logfrm). there are userId field,password field, submit button,reset button, and a link.
when i click on the link, it should fetch the value of userid.
How it is possible?
AE

use jsp:
which lets you embed java statments in your html -so you when you click on the link you can use request.getParameter("userID") to get the userid.
Ideally with html forms use a combination of jsp and java beans, where the fields in the form are also fields in your java bean, which you can access through setters and getters.
google for some jsp tutorials.

How to retrieve input data from a HTML form in the UTF-8 cha

I encountered the following problem with a JWeb Application:
I tried to write a JWeb-Application for OAS 4.0, that retrieves
input data from a HTML form and writes it into an Oracle
database.
All processing should be done in the UTF-8 character set.
The problem is, that the form data retrieved by getURLParameter
are always encoded in a non-unicode character set and I found no
way to change this.
Can anybody tell me what I should do to get the form data in the
UTF-8 character set?

Hi
Try set in the JWEB application's Java environment such
SYSTEM_PROPERTY: file.encoding=UTF8.

Pete:
Remove the name attributes from all input elements defined by the pl/sql process. For example
<input name="company" type="Text" size="30"/> should be replaced by <input type="Text" size="30"/> or <input name="f01" type="Text" size="30"/>
The APEX accept process recognises a predefined set of HTML form input names. Any input with a name not from this set will cause the accept process to fail. f01 through f50 are valid names for the accept procedure.

How to submit a html form using java

hi friends,
i have a html form with some input fields, when ever a user submit the form the user information is stored in the database. is it possible to pass the user information in the url(url rewriting) and submit it by a java program so that the data will be stored in the database, as like as, user submit it manually.
for eg:
/*sample.html*/
<form action="store.jsp" method="post">
User Data:<input type="text" name="userdata">
<input type="submit">
</form>
in my java is it possible to store the record as below:
URL url=new URL("http://localhost:7001/webapp/store.jsp?userdata=AutomaticDatasave");
URLConnection con=url.openConnection();
int i=0;
while((i=con.getInputStream().read())!=-1)
System.out.print(i);/*it has to print the data that store.jsp is returned like information stored or error storing data(what ever)*/

hi Drclap,
Thanks for your reply, which is helpful to me....
tried what you said, what i did is modified the code like below
con.setDoOutput(true);
BufferedWriter br=new BufferedWriter(new InputStreamWriter(con.getOutputStream()));
String str="userdata=AutomateDataSave\n";
br.write(str,0,str.length());
br.flush()But

How to retrieve data from the HTML form in the JEditorPane?

I could quite easily use JEditorPane to render and display a simple HTML file.
My HTML looks like this:
<html>
<head>
<title> simple form</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="cccccc">
<center><h1>SURVEY THING</h1>
</center>
<form id="survey">
<p>1.Type something in.</p>
<textarea cols=25 rows=8>
</textarea>
<BR>
<p>2.Pick ONLY one.</p>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="0" Checked> NO choice <BR>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="1"> First choice <BR>
<input type="radio" name="thing" value="2"> Second choice
<BR>
<p>3.Pick all you like.</p>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="A"> A <BR>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="B"> B <BR>
<input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="C"> C <BR>
<input type="submit" value="give data">
<input type="reset" value="do clensing">
</form>
</body>
</html>
It gets diplayed fine and I can type in text, select radio buttons (they behave mutualy-exclusive,
as they should) and check checkboxes.
The problem I have is with retrieving the values which were entered into the form.
If I, after editing, try to write the html to the file using HTMLWriter,
it records the changes I made into the textarea, however all the radio and checkbox selections are lost.
Maybe the problem is that when I enter the values I do not use any methods like
insertBeforeStart and so on, but I believe I shouldn't need to use them to populate a form.
Especially I never change the structure of the HTML.
Also, when I try to traverse the Element tree and see the input elements attributes,
I can never see a change in the entered values. However it is probably b/c I am traversing through
the model and the changes are in the view (just a guess.)
Anyway, if anybody could direct me onto the right path: how to retrieve the values typed in the form,
or if it is possible at all in the JEditorPane, I would greatly appreciate.
thanks

PS. I have seen the answer to a similar question posted some time last year. However, I am trying
to find a soultion which allows forms/surveys to be built by people who have no java and only basic
html knwledge. And Axualize way is probably a little bit too "high-tech."

Maybe helpful for u.

Can Java be used to save content of HTML form to a file?

We have an application that saves a pdf file to a location on our webserver. The file displays on the users machine in a browser window. I have created a link in the links bar of the browser window which launches a simple HTML page. This page allows the user to enter a number of fields and click 'SAVE'. This is where I am having the problem. I need the save button to firstly create a csv file on the webserver containing the details input by the user. I then need the pdf file saved to the web server with a new name and in the same location as the csv file. is there anyway to achieve this using Java or can anyone please point me in the right direction?
Thanks

<<Click on the SAVE button in an HTML <form> and the browser will perform an HTTP POST of the data to a URL. Make that URL point to a Java servlet and it can take that form data
<<and write it to the webserver file system in any format you wish, including csv and pdf.
agree with duffy. You can also use JSP and call a class method to handle whatever data you specify.

Is there a way to create reusable HTML Forms that can be used on multiple pages?

I'm trying to understand the recommended approach to managing 10 HTML forms that will be reused on many different pages. I want to be able to modify the form definition once and have the change propogate.

Is your requirement that authors be able to change the form definition, or should form definition be controlled by developers?
In the case of authors being able to change the form definition then I would say best practice would be to create a page that holds the form definition (using whatever components work for you - either the out of the box form components or something custom). Then use the reference component to point the definition in all the other locations you want the form to appear. One thing to note is if you are using dispatcher for caching you need to make sure you strategy for cache flushing accomadates this approach.
In the case of developers controlling the form definition you could crate a component for each form, and then simly drag that component onto the pages that require the form. In this case your would control all the form label and description elements in the localization file.

How can I change the order of html form data submitted to me via email?

I am having customers contact me via an html form posted on my website using the "sendtoemail" command. When I receive the data in an e-mail it is not presented in the order it appears on the web page and I can't seem to find out what dictates the order the data is presented in or how I can change it.
Anyone have any ideas on how I can make HTML form data elements appear in the order I want?
Thanks,
Andy

The URL http:///sap/bc/webdynpro/form_ap/ (Path of ABAP webdynpro application) was not called due to an error.
Note
The following error text was processed in the system DRD : Error in Web Dynpro Runtime System
The error occurred on the application server DRD_06 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE
The ABAP call stack was:
Method: GET_REQUEST_INPLUG_PARAMETERS of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_APPLICATION=====CP
Method: INIT of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_APPLICATION=====CP
Method: IF_WDR_RUNTIME~CREATE of program CL_WDR_MAIN_TASK==============CP
Method: HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_WDR_CLIENT_ABSTRACT_HTTP===CP
Method: IF_HTTP_EXTENSION~HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_WDR_MAIN_TASK==============CP
Method: EXECUTE_REQUEST_FROM_MEMORY of program CL_HTTP_SERVER================CP
Function: HTTP_DISPATCH_REQUEST of program SAPLHTTP_RUNTIME
Module: %_HTTP_START of program SAPMHTTP
What can I do?
If the termination type was RABAX_STATE, then you can find more information on the cause of the termination in the system DRD in transaction ST22.
If the termination type was ABORT_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can find more information on the cause of the termination on the application server DRD_06 in transaction SM21.
If the termination type was ERROR_MESSAGE_STATE, then you can search for more information in the trace file for the work process 0 in transaction ST11 on the application server DRD_06 . In some situations, you may also need to analyze the trace files of other work processes.
If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.

Error when using a HTML form along with a servlet

Hi All,
I am using Sun Studio 4 to create a HTML form that takes in 4 inputs and then
passes them on to a servlet to be processed.
In my HTML form i have the form heading.. <form method = post action="processServlet">
my directory structure is as follows:
/home/cosmo/projects/testservlet/processServlet ... processServlet being the servlet underneath the testservlet directory.
inputForm.html is also under the same testservlet directory. I am running TOMCAT.. and under the run time tab under tomcat --> Internal --> it has localhost:8081 and under that the default context is /home/cosmo/projects/testservlet
NOW, when i execute my HTML page the URL on top says "http://localhost:8081/inputForm.html
which seems correct. I get my form correctly. When i input the data,and i hit the submit button, the URL says "http://localhost:8081/processServlet" which i think is also correct, but i get a "404 Error and the error description says " The requested resource( /processServlet)
is not available." I have coded the servlet to give me just a few lines of output, but instead, the above error shows up.
Why would this be happening? Do i have my directory structure messed up? Do i have the wrong type of template? I used a web module to do this. I also compiled my Servlet from Sun Studio without any errors.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Kal.

You can't post directly to a servlet the way you can to an HTML or JSP page. You must map your requests to specific servlets for the request to get directed there. There are entries in the web.xml for this.
You need to map the request for "processServlet" to "edu.xxx.yyy.processServlet", or the servlet engine won't know what to do with that request.
Often times, an app will route all requests for a particular extension to a router servlet, which then figures out which class to actually send the request to. This keeps you from having to map all servlets in the web.xml file.
