Muse and Forms issues

Muse and forms issue
Good morning all, I have an issue that I thought I would ask the greater group to see if anyone has a workaround or fix for what is happening.
Here is what I have:
1. I have a customer that I am redesiging their site and they have this current form on their site that they want me to reuse ( http://www.selectpos.com/rma.htm )
- note at the bottom the buttons look great they look like buttons and operate like buttons.
2. Now I have pulled the code from their old site,and added to the new site with Muse insert HTML were I needed it. It operates great, but note the buttons they no longer look like buttons or act like buttons. ( http://www.selectpos.com/temp/rma.html )
3. That same code just put into a text file and placed in a html file. the buttons come back and is fine. this again is all the same code no changes from the current to redesign and to the simple html file ( http://www.selectpos.com/temp/test01.html )
Not sure what to do, it all work fine in the new site, but I just don't like the buttons at the bottom nor des the client. I need to reuse this code as their customers are familiar with the GUI of the form and are happy with the way it is. their invoice system is tied to the number that is generated. The page is hosted on Godaddy so I can't take it to Adobe Business Catalyst and redo the form there. Note I have tested this on multiple system and browers. it works fine on IPhone and Ipad, but IE 8 and 9, chrome, and firefox nothing.
Any help or direction is greatly appreciate, thank you all in advace for taking a look at this issue and I look forward to your replys and suggestions.

It appears you have now updated the button code to use an image instead.
The issue you are facing is happening due to CSS that Muse uses in order to style input elements. To get the plain default look for a button in Muse, you would need to update the CSS in /css/site_global.css. The easiest option would be to remove the first two instances of "input," (including the comma) from the file and thus the properties affecting the default look of the input element won't apply sitewide.
However, we do not generally recommend editing files generated by Muse as any manual changes you make to files generated by Muse would be overwritten the next time you export/publish a site through Muse. Though this condition does not always apply to common CSS/JS files during subsequent exports at the same location but it does when your Muse installation upgrades to the current latest version where it exports/publishes all files in order to take into affect any improvements/optimization to code made since the prior version.
You might want to test this locally or by directly inspecting the element in a browser if you are comfortable with it.
Thanks,
Vinayak

Process and Forms - Issue with Method which Uses Imported Form Values

We are doing a project to implement ESS and MSS. Using Adobe Process and Forms we generated a process with form and workflow.
The workflow's first step uses a version of TS17900110 task to move the form to the workflow container.
Binding:
export:
&FORM_STANDARD& @0E\QAssign Value@ @9T\QGets data for...@ &FORM&
'USER_ID' @0E\QAssign Value@ @9T\QGets data for...@ &FORM_FIELD_NAME_1&
'PERNR' @0E\QAssign Value@ @9T\QGets data for...@ &FORM_FIELD_NAME_2&
'AWART' @0E\QAssign Value@ @9T\QGets data for...@ &FORM_FIELD_NAME_3&
Binding
import:
&EMPL_USERID.OBJID& @9S\QReceives data from...@ @0D\QAssign Value@ &FORM_FIELD_VALUE_1&
&PERNR& @9S\QReceives data from...@ @0D\QAssign Value@ &FORM_FIELD_VALUE_2&
&AWART& @9S\QReceives data from...@ @0D\QAssign Value@ &FORM_FIELD_VALUE_3&
The workflow is bringing values for: EMPL_USERID, PERNR, AWART.
We need to write these field values to a table using a method. We are using a custom task to do this.
The task triggers a method which calls a FM which makes the update to the table.
The step with the custom task is a foreground step which the workflow stops for so we can test execute it.
When we execute there is a breakpoint in the ABAP code which stopps us at the point where the values are being read.
We are trying to read values: 'USER_ID', 'PERNR', and 'AWART' but the debugger is not showing any values being brought in.
The binding we currently have for the step we feel is the problem:
This is all we have in there so far - NEED suggestions/advice:
Binding export:
&ZABSREQ&     @0E\QAssign Value@     @9T\QGets data for...@     &_WI_OBJECT_ID&
(&ZABSREQ& - This is a BOR)
Any information is appreciated.

We were very anxious to solve this issue.
While I was posting my counterpart realized that we did not have target containers setup to receive the values from the workflow.
Once those were set the values were able to be read from the FM.
Here's the binding updated to:
&EMPL_NUM&     @0E\QAssign Value@     @9T\QGets data for...@     &EMPL_NUM&
&SUBTYPE&     @0E\QAssign Value@     @9T\QGets data for...@     &SUBTYPE&
Still gave you some points for helping - Thank you.

Facet and Form issue.

Hi All,
I have a switcher which has two facet.each facet has a ADF form in that.
The create and other buttons are working fine in 1st facet but its not working in 2ndFacet.whenever i click the create or anyother button in 2nd facet its redirecting to the 1stfacet as it is default one in switcher.i had tried by giving partial submit as true and partialtrigger but its not showing any change in the page.
Is that we cant have multiple panellayoutform in single page?.
I need to have create button when we click that i need to clear all the fields and create empty fields for the user to add new record.
Regards
Suresh kuamar

Hi,
you need to make sure the af:switcher "FacetName" property is set to the name of the current visible facet. If do this e.g from a managed bean in request scope, then pressing the command button clears this information and the default facet is shown. The reason it works for the other button only seems to be because its the default.

Recaptcha and Muse form issue

I am trying to add Google recaptcha to a contact form in Muse and have added my keys, but I keep getting "The server encountered an error" upon form submission every time.
Is there more I need to do than simply add the keys?
- I added my domain to Google recaptcha; which shows me a site key and secret key
- I added site key to public field in recaptcha form and secret key to private key in recaptcha form in Muse form widget
- I uploaded my exported html to my web server and tested

SQL Verification Problem / Muse Form Issue (Server uses MySQL muse uses SQLite) I'm in desperate need of help

 Alright well here is my issue... I have been trying to fix it on my own for the past week non stop and I have finally came to a solid conclusion as to the cause of the issue.
 I always get the error "The server has encountered an error..." in red text when anyone tries to submit a form and also when I try and test it myself. This led me to test the server / site for compatibility or issues by using the test:
mydomain.com /scripts/form_check.php
I got the first two checks green (pass) and the third test threw a red check meaning I was having an issue with SQL verification. This then led me to days of trying to work with my hosting provider (one.com) trying to solve the problem and I was told that they use mySQL on their servers and that they couldn't do anything on their end to solve the issue. I read alot that we are recommended in this case to try and get our host to add the SQLite database to their server or whatever it is they would do, long story short I guess many people are able to ask their host to make SQLite work and most accept and add SQLite functionality to their servers but unfortunately my hosting provider doesn't want to do this and they said they were sorry and that I would need to either switch the script to work with mySQL or figure something else out...
 I took a lot of time building my site and I dont want to take the form out. I absolutely need it... I know many post on here saying "forms dont work, oh poop " or "adobe sucks I dont want to use business catalyst grrr" but I tried to find the source of the problem and I've successfully came to the conclusion that my issue is that my script wants to use SQLite but in order for my sites forms to work the server needs to have SQLite as well... My idea is that if I can configure the script and the site itself to use mySQL instead of SQLite the SQL verification will then not be an issue and my websites forms will function with no issues. I am curious if a member of the staff with adobe has experience with this particular issue and can help me out? or if a member of the adobe community has solved this problem? If not I am hoping that with the description I provided that someone with knowledge of mysql, sqlite or code in general could help me modify the script or write a new script that will allow the forms to work properly. I know its a long shot, I say that because this discussion is full of people who used muse in favor of dreamweaver because just like a large number of people in the muse discussion area, I'm a graphic designer, with plenty of computer experience, art and design skill and I am extremely familiar with photoshop. Muse is perfect in so many ways. In fact, like I mentioned above, I don't even have a complaint at this time about muse. I understand the form issue in this case, and I imagine in thousands of other users situations, is all just a matter of scripts and compatibility.. Its just a little issue between the SQLite scripts we are all given when we export our muse website and the SQL version our various hosting service may be using on their servers.
 Just incase I missed anything, to provide just a bit more info on the topic and myself for anyone who may be able to help:
I can alter the text inside of the scripts easily if anyone happens to know any lines of code that easily solve this issue (making the muse contact forms, which are native to SQLite, functional on a server using mySQL)
I was told one way I could make the forms work on a server using mySQL (or any version other than SQLite) If I were to make changes to adobe muses SQL version by converting the SQLite db to mySQL db (db = database)
I am computer literate and I can take any directions necessary, I really just need to get this done, I really appreciate any help I can get!!
Thank you in advance,
Roy

Muse Contact form reply issues

Can anyone help with this issue.
Thank you for contacting Adobe.
A representative will be with you shortly.
Thank you for your patience.
While you wait, you can try our community forums where experts are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
You are now chatting with Sonam.
Vicky Quick: The contact form for Muse sites doesn't allow my clients to reply to the person who contacted them. It puts their address in the top requiring them to cut and paste the person requesting information. How can I change the reply to field in the contact form and is that even an option? If not do you offer a work around? I've put this question on the forum and no one has an answer. PLEASE HELP!
Sonam: Hi, welcome to Adobe
Sonam: Vicky, is your site hosted via BC, or a 3rd party hosting provider?
Vicky Quick: I have one on BC and one on godaddy both do not work
Vicky Quick: The contact form works, but the reply back doesn't
Vicky Quick: hello?
Sonam: Vicky, this feature is not available via Muse or BC. Kindly share the link to your forum post, I shall forward it to the product team and ask them to get back to you at the earliest.
Sonam: If there is a work around, or if it is possible with any customization, the product team shall help you with it.
Vicky Quick: I have put it on the forum as well as third party sites like muse-themes.com and they don't have answer either
Sonam: Kindly share the link to your forum post
Vicky Quick: How do I share the link?
Sonam: Copy and paste to this chat

As Anshul has suggested , this needs a Customer Case Management system , where your client can reply directly to submitters email.
With BC this is possible enabling CST( Customer Service Ticketing ) , you can define role responsible as which users should receive the submission emails and then reply to customers directly from email client used.
Level responses can be used such as First level with escalation level. Enabling this , form submission will create a case which will then get converted into a web case and will be triggered into role responsible mailboxes. Site users(your client) can directly reply to the customer from any email client used using this method.
In case you are using external server , you can use any third party ticketing system and setup on the email to which notifications are received.
Currently , with Muse when form is setup with email . Submitters form submission notification is received from that email and submitters email is included in subject line , which you can use manually to send email replies.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Can I create a form in muse and have it work with a different hosting service?

I contacted a hosting service that I need to upload the site I built in MUSE to. (Hosting has already been purchased). I asked OMNIS:
I want to create a form with Muse and then upload my site to OMNIS, not muse, the forms will display as I designed them, but they will not function. I have someone to help me who is experienced in working with code. I can use Muse to export my site and then open the files in an HTML editor. "Update the source code of the form to make it compatible with the form processing technology used by your hosting provider (OMNIS) before you upload the files to their server." Can you help me with this? Do I need to get a script or something from you?
OMNIS ASKED me:
What are MUSE's site requirements?
I will be building other sites and my clients may want to have the site hosted elsewhere. Can you give me the easiest way to deal with forms?

Thank you for getting back to me Morgan.
I read in another forum:
There's a handy piece of software from CoffeeCup Software called "Web Form Builder". It's pretty affordable and easy to use and it can be hosted on the server of your choice provided that server uses an up-to-date PHP script.
This is what I have been using....but I would rather not have to deal with a third party form builder at all.
Do you reccommend this?

Issue with FRD and Forms Trace in Oracle Apps Release 12.0.6 forms

Hi,
Morning..could someone please assist us with this issue..
We are trying to generate FRD and Forms Trace for a seeded Oracle Apps Forms in Release version 12.0.6
1. We have setup the below mentioned profile option at the user level : ICX: Forms Launcher
value : http://<host_name>:<port number>/OA_HTML/frmservlet?record=forms tracegroup=medium
tried with this value as well : http://<host_name>:<port number>/OA_HTML/frmservlet?record=forms tracegroup=0-97
and then log out and then tried the transaction steps again in Oracle Apps frontend
2. Then checked at the directory location named : $FORMS_TRACE_DIR and there we see a file generated like this :forms_19136694.trc
But in this file we could only see the generic seeded error messages...why are we not seeing all the message calls showing all the details regards form level trigger , data blocks , values etc for the form
We need to have the FRD & Forms trace generated urgently for an issue...
Could someone please help us as to how a complete FRD & Forms Trace be generated in Oracle Forms in Oracle Apps version R 12.0.6 & what exact steps need to be checked.

I'm triyng to create a website with Muse and first it seems to be easy.
I use a free template, and now I'm designing the page master but the problem is when I try to preview it appears like the picture I enclosed.
The target appearance is in the second file enclosed.

Can somebody help me please? It will save me...this is my first work project ever and I want to do it well !

Hi
As you are using a very wide page 2000+ , browser adds a scroll to view the page content.
Please try to scale down the page width and height which will solve the issue.
You can set width and height from page properties but if you add contents then page will stretch according to the page elements added.

Issues during reinstallation Oracle 10g express edition and Forms 6i

I've been racking my head over this issue for the past two three days. Exasperated, I tried searching in the forums but could not find a specific scenario like this.
I am facing issues while trying to get forms 6i to work with oracle 10g Express edition
i have windows XP home edition (installed service pack 2) and installed oracle 10g express edition as well as the oracle 10g express client and SQL developer on the same machine. The database started fine and I was able to use Enterprise manager.
After that I tried installing Forms 6i and whatever i try i am not able to connect to the database from Forms though I was able to connect easily from SQL developer. I used to get the error 12154 "TNS:could not resolve service name"
I dont know if Forms 6i expects the database connector string in some particular format. I searched on the net and found some people solved the issue by reinstalling the database software.
My machine name was complex so I changed it as well and reinstalled the software. Again the DB was fine and connections were fine but no way I could get forms to connect to the DB. All the time
I tried installing Forms to the same folder that Oracle express edition home in the hope that it might fix the problem. That only caused my database to crash. The oracle xe service shows as started but the Enterprise manager link does not work and it seems the database is down. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling client and server to no avail.
Has anyone gone through such a situation and solved this ? Appreciate your help.

The statement about XP Home is correct, but in this case I would say the initial problem (Forms and ORA-12154) is independent of that, it also happens in a supported environment. I think it's the old problem, a second Oracle home was installed, but tnsnames.ora containing the connect informations is located in the first home.
Either tnsnames.ora is copied from to <Second_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin or the environment variable TNS_ADMIN is set system-wide to <First_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin.
I think now it's necessary to create a clean machine (remove all Oracle components as explained in the database installation guide for Windows). Then repeat the installation , but XE and Forms 6i in different ORACLE_HOMEs.

HCM Process and Forms - Changes to Form Issue

We have a scenario within HCM processes and forms where the changes being made by an intermediate approval step is not being sent to the next level approver. For example, in a pay change the initiating manager sends the pay change to his/her boss for approval, then once approved the form is sent to HR for final approval and update into R/3.
In this scenario the initiating manager starts the process and makes appropriate updates to the form (including comments). This then routes to that manager's manager for updates/approval. When processing the form, the approving manager can see the information input by the initiating manager. The approving manager then has the opportunity to make appropriate changes within the form and add comments before it is approved and sent to HR for final approval.
Once the approving manager makes changes and sends this to HR, when HR processes the form they see the changes as if it was sent by initiating manager (HR does not see the changes made by the approving manager).
I appreciate any insight you may have on this issue.
Regards,
Brad

Sounds like you process is designed incorrectly and your are having problems with your process object integrity. You need to be careful with loops/branches when designing your process. Are you doing it all in the same Form Scenario and just using multiple steps? The form scenario will "share" the "data" hence you can have issues. You can split it to a differnt form scenario and pass the data over from the other FS to your FS. Then you know you will have your own data there. I often see people trying to do their whole process within one form scenario and use multiple steps without realizing the data integrity issues with that.
Hope this helps.

Publishing Site, what happens to temporary site and forms created with Muse?

Hello,
I want to publish my site, however I am wondering if the temporary .businesscatalyst.com site goes down immediately after I do this? Also, I created the forms with Muse and apparently they are connected to the URL, so will they no longer work? Or do I have to republish them? Also, do I have to pay for the published site if I am creativecloud member? Thanks any insight!

Hi,
The system url will still remain when pushing live and adding your own domain. The site will naturally reflect your added domain once added however you can always access the site uisng the system URLs.
The form will naturally reflect your added custom domain and will still work under the system URL.
Yes, you get up to 5 free webBasic sites under your cloud subscription. More details can be found in the FAQ page.
