Need to create a contest entry form with a survey

I have a client that would like me to create contest entry from with a survey, I know that I can easliy do this using the Web Form builder and have the data captured into the database, the prolem that I have is that my client only wants the customer to be able to enter the contest once. Is there a way to set this up using a Web Apps or other code so that if a person with the email address tries to enter more than once they get a message that says that they already entered?
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks,
Barry

Hi Barry,
Here's a posible solution...
1- Extend the CRM Database with a unique ID field
2- Add this 'hidden' CRM field to the sign up form so every member has an automatically generated unique ID ( see http://forums.adobe.com/message/4520873#4520873 )
3- Create an appropriate web app field and pre-populate it with this ID- lets call this field xyz (hide this field too)
Now, as long as the web app input form is on the web app detail view page, all you'd have to do is compare these two 'strings' i.e {module_cutomerfield,****,*******} and {tag_xyz}
see http://jsfiddle.net/Webmosphere/Wqvcj/2/
var alreadyPosted = "{module_cutomerfield,****,*******}";
if (alreadyPosted == {tag_xyz})
$('.removeMe').remove();
In this example, the element with a class 'removeMe' is removed from the DOM...what you could add under the same if statement is a function to display another element that perhaps
displays a message such as 'already replied'.
If the form is not on the web app detail view page, you could still ajax in {tag_xyz}....
I hope this helps or at the least sends you in the right direction.

Build multi-product contest entry form with payment

I have a client that wants to build a contest entry form that allows the user to enter multiple products with details and totals the amount for payment in one form. Each product that will be entered into the contest will have the same price of $60.
First of all, is this possible without setting up products in the eCommerce module?
My idea was to have the users go through a multi-step form to enter the contest. EX: Step 1. Contact Information | Step 2. Company Details | Step 3. Product registration | Step 4. Payment | Step 5. Confirmation/Packing Slip.
Step 3. Product registration - I was hoping the user can click a button for each item which will give him the option to enter a product and detail information for the submission. If he wanted to enter more than one product, he could click an "add more" button to generate another entry area for submission.
Step 4. Payment - The user will be given the total amount to pay depending on how many products he has submitted into the contest.
If anyone has a suggestion or idea on how to implement this type of entry form, I would love to hear your comments.
Thank You

Mario, IF he uses the eCommerce you can not change the amount field on the registration buy form.
If he goes with a seamless payment gateway and a custom form for this and web apps he can go to town with your suggestions and more

Can I Create A Data Entry Form with iWeb?

I want members of my club to be able to make data entry selections each week directly to my web site via a data entry form, and have those entries stored for my retrieval and later posting. Can this configuration be set up in iWeb? Thank you in advance for pointing me in the right direction.

Creating a Data Entry Form combining 2 or more tables like a Master Detail

I have a client requirement to create a data entry form which shows fields from 3 different tables joined by linking key. The data entry form should allow the user to enter a new record details. This should populate into 1 or more tables.
Example: User table with userid,username. userRoles with userid,roleid. The user can have one or more roles. There are 4 roles and possibility of expanding. The data entry form should show userid, username and all the possible roles fetching from a look-up table roles_lookup which has role_id, role_description. When a new user is created with 4 roles selected the system should create one user record and r userRoles records.
What is the best approach.
Thanks in advance.
Satya

I found the solution. We can create a database routine to which we pass all the values and in the routine we create two different insert statements. Based on the number of roles selected we can control the loop to create number of records in role table.

We want to create an online contract form with different options which will determine different prices as they make their choices. We will also require a legally binding e-signature. Is Acrobat the best product or even an option for this?

You need to use form fields. See the Acrobat help section and this site: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/
However, that last part (receiving an automatic response when a form is submitted) has nothing to do with Acrobat, or even with the PDF file. This is something you'll need to set up on your web (or email) server.

User entry form with submit facility

Hi,
I want to create and user entry form, which users can fill there information and submit it. The information i want to insert in table in oracle db and not in webcenter site db.
I am looking in developer guide on page 217 with topic "Code entry form", there they have created a form and inserted data in Employee_info table. I think they have created table somewhere in catalogManager.
Please can anyone tell me, how i can directly connect to my oracle db and proceed with form submit?
Can i create jsp and java file , in the same way we create in our normal application?
Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
You can use most Java code inside a jsp-type CSElement to save the form data in a way that you're familiar with. I'd suggest doing one of the following:
a) Create a separate connection pool on the WebCenter Sites appserver for the oracle database, and use your own code to access this connection pool and store data in the table
or
b) post the form to your "normal application" and have that process the form and store the data, assuming that's where you'll be using the data.
You could also create a non-managed jsp inside the WebCenter Sites appserver, but this could be hard to maintain.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Stephan.

How to save a completed form that was created as a dynamic form, with expandable files?

I have created a dynamic PDF form with expandable fields etc. As this is to be accessible for customers to completed, how can they save a completed copy on their own PC?
I tried it myself and I receive an error msg stating that I can only save a Blank Copy of this Form: Data typed into this form will not be saved. Adobe Reader can only save a blank copy of this form.
How can I create a dynamic form (with expandable fields/flowable layout etc) that allows the applicant to not only complete the form but also, to save a completed copy?

Thanks! That worked , however I now have an additional issue.
While the form works in Internet Explorer (I'm using IE11), in that it's viewable, it opens and allows me to save etc) it doesn't work in Google Chrome and I'm getting the below error message:
Any ideas on why it doesn't display in Chrome and does in IE (I'm using the same PC and I'm using Adobe Reader XI)!
there are other PDF forms on site that are not dynamic but are fillable, and these are opening!
Thanks

Can I create a data entry form?

I have inherited a large Excel spreadsheet and would like to create a data entry form to input/view data without continually scrolling horizontally. Is this possioble please?
Many thanks,
Gary

Data entry forms and other alternate views of data are best made in a database application. Spreadsheets like Excel or Numbers show data in rows and columns and that's it. If there are two many rows or columns to fit on a page, scrolling is unavoidable. Ditto for tables in Word or Pages.
A database can create displays that put all related data on a single screen or page.
Mac databases include Filemaker and Bento (by the same company). I'm sure there are others, I've just never heard of them.
Good luck,
Terry

Creating a Fillable PDF form with adobe pro XI

Hi,
I am creating a fillalbe PDF form using Form central with Adobe Pro XI and I am using the new "add help text" feature in it, but when i save the form as PDF the add help text disaapars. I am also unalbe to find a form reset button to add to my form. How can I create a from with these features. The form I want to make it fillable PDf to emailed to customers.
thanks.

Hi;
Re: Help Icon - The PDF does not display the "?" like the web form. In the PDF when you mouse over the field and hover for 1-2 seconds the help text is shown in a tooltip.
Re: Form Reset button (Clear Form) - FormsCentral does not provide a clear form button but you can add it in Acrobat. You will want to open the PDF in Acrobat and then follow these two tutorials:
In order to Edit the FormsCentral PDF in Acrobat you will need to read this FAQ: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3661
This tutorial shows you how to add the "Clear" button to the form: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/acrobat-x-tips-tricks/quick-tip-how-to-add-a-reset-button-to-a-f orm/
Are you planning save the form as a "Submission Enabled PDF" and collect responses using FormsCentral? If you are not, and simply want the responses or PDF emailed back to you on submission you can see this tutorial: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7dd6.w .html

Need to create a user policy form

Can anyone help?
I need to create a policy form in Dreamweaver CS4 that a user needs to accept, or not, before proceeding further to another page in my site? After they accept the form the functionality needs to take the individual to another page where they are able to make charitable contributions using credit cards that would be sent directly to the organizations bank. They are trying to avoid using PayPal.
This is my first time using this concept and I'm getting lost.
Thanks
Swany

Unfortunately it's not perfect. With the other recommendation a user could simply go to the URL without viewing the policy page and thus not accepting the terms. For instance in the example anyone could just go to http://google.com without accepting the terms. Just view source code and see where GoTo URL directs upon accept. Also because there is no server side restriction to the page then the page is crawled by search engines so someone searching for your page online may go to your form page without first being redirected to the policy page.
With server side restriction the page is not crawled by search engines so the page will not come up in search results and users could not simply visit the URL because it would restrict access and redirect to the "login" AKA policy page first. Server side authentication is always the best method.
If you'd still like to go about doing it the recommended way let me know and I can walk you through the process. Basically just create a MySQL database table for the users username and password then user Dreamweaver Server behaviors to create the restrict access page and login page. It's pretty straight-forward to use the server behaviors in Dreamweaver once the database is setup. I walked someone through how to setup a database with GoDaddy recently and it's a similar process with other hosts.
If the other imperfect method that can be worked around works for you then that's great!

Need to create a multi line form

Hi All,
I have to create a Multi line form for which I have used the following:
1. Created an EO
2. Created a VO based on EO.
3. Created a Page that has two regions:
a. Main Region
b. Table Region
This Table region is of style Table. But when I run the page it shows that No Data has found. Even its not a search page.
Kindly suggest me that how can I make this page and this page should have 10 rows at a time available to insert.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Sandy

Hi Gaurav,
I have done in the same way as suggested by you but not got success. I am not getting why it shows always 'No Search Conducted' even its not a search page. I have created this page for insert data.
Following I have added in CO for processrequest:
public void processRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean)
super.processRequest(pageContext, webBean);
OATableBean table =
(OATableBean)webBean.findIndexedChildRecursive("SupTable");
OAApplicationModule am = pageContext.getApplicationModule(webBean);
am.invokeMethod("createSupEntry");
String buttonLabel =
pageContext.getMessage("AK", "FWK_TBX_T_ADD_ANOTHER_ITEM", null);
OAAddTableRowBean addRow = (OAAddTableRowBean)table.getColumnFooter();
addRow.setText("Add 10 Rows");
I have added the following code in AM:
public void createSupEntry()
SuppVOImpl vo = getSuppVO1();
System.out.println("AM Inside AM:: ");
// We need to do this on a VO that has not been queried before we insert
// our first row. We don't want to do it for subsequent inserts.
if (!vo.isPreparedForExecution())
// Complies with the view object initialization guidelines for a detail
// view object in a master-detail relationship.
vo.executeQuery();
System.out.println("AM Not prepared for execution:: ");
for(int j=0;j<10;j++)
Row row = vo.createRow();
System.out.println("AM Creating Row:: ");
vo.insertRowAtRangeIndex(vo.getCurrentRowIndex()+1,row);
// Required per OA Framework Model Coding Standard M69
row.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
} // end createSupEntry()
Thanks,
Sandy

I agree the leather look is horrible. It's just not a reflection of the cutting edge modern design we have all got to love over the years. If it has to be there at least give us a choice of looks.
There is a word for this (not that one) - skeuomorph. Wikipedia defines this as 'a derivative object that retains ornamental design cues to a structure that was necessary in the original. Skeuomorphs may be deliberately employed to make the new look comfortably old and familiar'.
Common examples are found in audio software with pictures of actual knobs that you turn, as here; and the leather-bound tear-off look of calendar and contacts on the iPad is the same principle: the intention is to make it familiar and friendly to people who might otherwise be frightened off by a modern look because they are not used to modern technology. The whole concept and look of the iOS operating system is being brought into use on Macs for the same reason, to encourage non-tech-savvy people not to be frightened of them.
This is all very well in its way, but in these two particular cases the result is unfortunate, particularly for experienced users, and it really ought to be possible to choose between the looks (as you can with the Mail layouts), even if the skeuomorph is the default.
