Hello.
I have a form w/multiple fields. I want to validate all of these fields when user hit 'submit'. Below is my javascript, what do i have to do/change in order for this script to work in HTML DB? Please advise. Thank you very much.

function validation(form) {
var email = form.email.value.toUpperCase();
var email_length = form.email.value.length;
if (form.email.value == "") {
alert("Error!\nAll fields must be entered.");
form.email.focus();
return false;
if (form.cost_center.value == "") {
alert("Error!\nAll fields must be entered.");
form.cost_center.focus();
return false;
if (form.cost_center.value.length < 4) {
alert("Error!\nWrong cost center, cost center has to be at least 4 digits.");
form.cost_center.focus();
return false;
if (form.email.value.length <= 11) {
alert("Error!\nInvalid email format.\nValid example: [email protected]");
form.email.focus();
form.email.select();
return false;
else {
if ((email.substring(email_length -11, email_length)) != "@ORACLE.COM") {
alert("Error!\nInvalid email format.");
form.email.focus();
form.email.select();
return false;
form.cost_center.value = form.cost_center.value.toUpperCase();

  • Email form using JavaScript

    I would like to perform certain validations when user clicks the email button. However, I am unable to enter any JavaScript in the click event. This event is disabled.
    Is there a way to email a form using JavaScript (not through the Submit tab)? This way I can run the validations in the click event, before emailing the form.
    Any other suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks
    Aditya

    Aditya,
    A common solution is to use two buttons. Add a Email Submit Button object and define the presence as 'invisible'. Let's name the object 'EmailSubmitBtn'. Add a Button object and change the caption to 'Email'. Let's call the object 'EmailBtn'. One the 'EmailBtn' click event perform the required validations and then call the click event on the 'EmailSubmitBtn'. You call the 'EmailSubmitBtn' click event as follows:
    form1.subform1.EmailSubmitBtn.execEvent("click");

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
    To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”,  you can use the below code:
    <script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
    var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
    xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
    xml = xml + '</Entities>';
    EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
    function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
    return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
    function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
    var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var web = context.get_web();
    this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
    context.load(this._currentUser);
    context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
    Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
    function onSuccess(sender, args) {
    SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),
    this._currentUser.get_title());
    function onFaiure(sender, args) {
    alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
    ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField, "sp.js");
    </script>

  • Reset form using javascript

    Hello,
    I am using jdev 11.1.1.6
    I want to know how to reset the form using javascript.
    For instance...<af:resetActionListener/> does it in jsff
    I need similar implementation

    One solution could be calling a backing bean method from client and reset the form in the backing bean method.
    var customEvent = new AdfCustomEvent(evt.getSource(),"resetFormEvent",null, true);
    customEvent.preventUserInput();
    customEvent.queue(true);

  • Multiple recipient livecycle form using javascript in it to attach a pdf, external recipients get MIME formatted email.

    The livecycle designed form has javascript to send the form to 4 recipients.  The form worked fine until the mail domain was hosted by gmail (uses TLS, port 587).  Now recipients get a MIME email, not the attached PDF.  Old versions of the form pre-sept 29 work fine.  If we change the form or copy it, it does not work.  If we use a different smtp server to test, it works fine, all 4 recipients get the pdf.  Any advice is much appreciated!  I'd say gmail is the problem, but then why do old forms work fine still through gmail?
    the setup is Adobe Livecycle Designer ES4, Adobe Acrobat XI, Outlook 2007, gmail hosted company domain (ex. yourdomain.com), using SMTP port 587 TLS, javascript in the email to declare a PDF, and a button to run the javascript (not a submit button, the javascript does the submit action).
    problem looks like this:

    First of all, a drop-down menu doesn't allow for multiple item selection. You'll need a list-box field for that.
    Once you have that set up you can use the value(s) selected in this field as the recipients of the email.

  • How to set a pop up calendar control in pdf  form using javascript?

    I'd like to add a pop up calendar control in a PDF form using Adobe Javascript.
    The user should be able to select a date from the calendar control.

    Let's say I did provide you with a solution... Wouldn't that be a "third-party solution" as well?
    These tools are not compiled, you know. You have direct access to their source-code and can make sure they don't do anything else beside what they're supposed to do.

  • WL 8.1 BEA-101083 error when submitting a form using javascript (IE only)

    Hello,
    I have a JSP page that is submitting a form with javascript document.form.submit()
    after checking the validity of form element values, but I randomly get a BEA-101083
    error. The jsp page has worked fine for several year in IPlanet, and Sun One
    7 application server, but when ported over to WebLogic 8.1 SP2 the error manifests
    itself. Basically, when user submits the form, the next page is displayed with
    null values, and soon after the following stack trace appears in the server log.
    This error only occurs when the client browser is IE, Netscape works fine.

    Checkboxes only submit a value when they are "on"
    They submit nothing if they are not selected.
    The problem comes - do you interpret no checkbox values as "clear all values" or "leave the values alone"? Struts assumes the latter.
    Your form is probably being kept in session?
    Try implementing the reset() method of your action form and set its property to be equivalent to no checkboxes selected.

  • Acrobat X Form using Javascript problem

    I have a Acrobat Form which I originally created in Acrobat 7 Pro that has a button which executes many lines of javascript.  In the javascript there is a large if then else statement group that sets a variable.
    I have not worked on this form in many years and recently opened the form using Acrobat X Pro and edited all of the javascript code.  The problem is that when I save the document and click on the button it is still executing the previous javascript code for some reason.  I have looked everywhere I can think of to make sure there is no remnant of the old code left and cannot find any.  It seems like there is a cached copy of the old code somewhere that is being used.  I have looked in the properties of the button and in the all javascript area of the forms menu and cannot find any reference to the old code.
    Any Idea why this is happening?
    Nick B

    The Javascript code populates a field on the form and the If Then statement sets this value based on  the amount in another field.  I have changed all of the values in the If Then statement but the button is still using the old values.
    I have tried this on three different computers and it will not pick up the new values. 

  • Addition of fields in Adobe forms using JavaScript or FormCalc

    Hi All,
    I have a few amount fields in my Adobe form. I want to calculate their sum and show it in another textfield. Any ideas how this is done using JavaScript or FormCalc.???
    Thanks and Regards,
    Sameer

    Hi Sameer,
    you cant use JavaScript here in Web Dynpro. But if you want to calculate the sum through a button click that can be done through the Action Handler method.
    Suppose you have 2 fields to add whichare field1 and filed2 in the context tree and the sum will be shown in field3 of context tree - all of numeric data type - obviously. So you can do the following in the action handler method.
    int sum = wdContext.currentContextElement().getField1() +
              wdContext.currentContextElement().getField2();
    wdContext.currentContextElement().setFields3(sum);

  • Support for dynamic forms using javascript for android tablet

    I have some complex multipage pdf forms with javascript functions and calculations made in Acrobat X Standard, I can open and use parts of the form in ezyPDF android app, however the javascript is not fully supported, does anyone know of any plug ins or work arounds to view my forms on an android tablet, my forma have to be stand alone as internet access is not always available.
    Regards Mike

    Get to know CF's structure / array notation. This comes in
    very handy when dealing with queries and form fields.
    - Form.myFieldName can also be referenced by
    Form["myFieldName"]
    - MyQuery.myField can also be referenced by
    MyQuery["myField"][rowNumber]
    Anything in the above example surrounded by quotation makes
    can be made dynamic by just adding in a cf variable surrounded by
    pound signs:
    get_dealer_completion["level_#level_id#"][1]

  • Sum the values of a text field in a tabular form using JavaScript

    Hi Folks.
    OK, I put my hands up. I don't know Java script but I'm picking up the basics and I WANT to learn.
    Here's my situation.
    I have a tabular form which has lots of Standard Report Columns and ONE text field.
    I want to sum the values entered in the text field, real time, using Java Script without the need to have a round trip to the database.
    I'm guessing this will involve some kind of loop. Once I have that SUM figure I will store it in a hidden item and it will be used for validation when the user submits the form.
    If anyone can give me a simple Java Script to do this, or point me in the direction of one, I'd be very grateful.
    Many thanks.
    Dogfighter.

    Hi Arie.
    Thanks for the link.
    That's a great start,
    What I've got working so far is the following...
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function f_calculate_delta(p_this,p_rownum)
    var amt = $x(p_this).value;
    alert (amt);
    var display_item_to_set = 'f08_'+ p_rownum
    $x(display_item_to_set).innerHTML = amt
    </script>
    This is working fine.
    Where I'm stuck at the moment is how I can 'get' the value of another cell in the same row. They have all been set up using the APEX_ITEM API with their own unique IDs.
    I will continue looking but if you could give me a steer, that would be great.
    Many thanks
    Simon
    PS. APEX 3.1
    PPS. Trying to get the value of another row using...
    var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
    var expected_amt = $x(display_item_to_get).value
    PPPS. Also tried...
    var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
    var expected_amt = $v(display_item_to_get)
    and
    var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
    var expected_amt = $v(display_item_to_get).value
    None of which are working at the moment.

  • Multi block validation in a form using nested tables

    Hi,
    I have a tables that contains 3 nested tables plus some other varchar2 columns.
    I have created a form with 4 blocks, three of them based on views on the 3 nested tables, the forth containing the other columns from the table.
    I have created relationships between the 4th block and each of the first three.
    The records in the nested tables (multi record blocks) depend on some values outside them (from the 4th block) and viceversa.
    How can I perform the validation?
    Thanks,
    Leontin

    I always use child tables rather than nested tables so this might not be applicable, but I like to use a constraint on a materialzed view when I have to validate multiple records or complicated relationships between blocks.
    This example is for inserting ranges on separate records and ensuring the start and end values match up:
