Reset value of text box and still have user input as well.

Hi,
I currently have a PDF form that helps users print of labels depending what is entered into the first page and one of the boxes has an 'Additional Info' box that puts unto 10 characters onto one of the labels.
This was made because a customer wanted something defining on the boxes so I included it on the box label now I have found another use for it.
If a customer asks we can make a custom size curtain but only so many can fit in a box as we show on the label how many fits in the box depending on the size via icons and I have decided to use this extra info to define how many are in this box if the customer asks for a custom size and I have managed to be able to have a dialogue box that the user enters how many will be in the box and it will enter that into the extra info box but I have found no way of clearing it when we start using standard size again except from event.value = " " unfortunately this stops the user from being able to edit anything within the box as it clears as any calculation is run through again.
I have tried using
if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value == 'BE'){
event.value = this.getField("csn").value + " IN A BOX"
} else {
event.value.defaultValue;
but it will not clear the box but allows the user to clear it and be able to put any other information in it if required.
is there anyway of having the box cleared after "SizeDrop" is changed from 'BE'?
Thanks,
Bruce

Hi - Thanks for your time; I was trying to make it work without using the operator pattern MATCH within the prompt definition; i dont want to show the answers report to the user with the words like contains any, pattern match so i was trying to use the operator equal to/is in within the prompt definition which does not work

  • Is there a way to have 2 or more text boxes and not have them cancel each other out?

    In the past you could overlap text boxes, but now when I place a text box to close to another it will completely make the other disappear.  Is there something I need to change in my pages setting to allow this function, or do I just need to use the iWork 09?

    ANSWER: 
    -click "Format" (the paint brush on the top right hand side of the window)
    -click "Arrange" (3rd box on the top right hand side of the window)
    -Under "Text Wrap" you will see a drop down menu that defaults to "Automatic"
    -click "Automatic" and select "None"
    You will have to do this for each text box.  Once thats done you can move the boxes as close as you want.

  • How do I insert additional pages inside a footnoted document with accompanying text boxes and still keep pages below syncronized?

    Is there a way to insert additional pages into a lengthy document containing continuous footnotes at the bottom of each page and accompanying text boxes on most pages without losing the syncronization of text and text box information on the pages below?

    Footnotes do not work for text in textboxes, and you can keep on adding text after existing text so I am not sure what you are asking for.

  • Locking down a text box, but still editable???

    is there a way to lock in or anchor a text box and still be able to type/edit text? maybe i'm missing something simple... thanks in advance!

    The point is to establish a layout, and then fill it.
    I had a regular monthly project of a 4 pp A3 set of newspapers in 12 languages. Each issue I would design the layout and create all necessary links in QuarkXpress. The sections would have non-printing labels and be largely prestyled.
    Then when it was approved, I'd "pour" the contents into it like plaster into a mould. Once I got going I could do each version in 8 minutes with a bit of individual typographic tweaking and styling.
    What made this possible is what is missing in Pages. Pages is amazingly obstructive and unco-operative for "easy to use" software. Potentially it could be different, if it wasn't for the design decisions of the programmers and the muddled way a lot of it is implemented.

    Well, it appears that your backup is corrupt, thus causing your issue. So, you'll have to restore as a new device, & not from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone:

    So basically if a iphone has a fault after the 1 year warranty period is over, there is nothing the consumer can do but purchase a new phone??
    Pretty much. Except that Apple will replace it for a fixed fee that is far less than the cost of a new phone. In the US the replacement cost for an iPhone 4 is $149. It is comparable in the UK. Unless you can prove that the fault was present at the time of purchase. A switch wearing out would probably be considered normal wear and tear, not a "fault".

  • How to get value from option box and submit accordingly

    Sorry for posting my question. I have been trying to edit message and repost it and not successful. Hence I am reposting my question. Please let me know.
    I am right now exploring JSF for presentation layer. I am designing a form with <h:outputLabel..> and <h:inputText...> for the user to input his value. I also have a radio button as below. <h:outputLabel..>
    <h:inputText...>
    <h:selectOneRadio id="libraryList" >
                                <f:selectItems value="#{libraryList}"/>
                            </h:selectOneRadio>And I have included the following piece of code in faces-config.xml as below.
    <managed-bean>
            <managed-bean-name>libraryList</managed-bean-name>
            <managed-bean-class>java.util.HashMap</managed-bean-class>
            <managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
            <map-entries>
                <map-entry>
                    <key>Pass</key>
                    <value>Pass</value>
                </map-entry>
                <map-entry>
                    <key>Fail</key>
                    <value>Fail</value>
                </map-entry>
            </map-entries>
        </managed-bean>Hence I get two option box as Pass and Fail.
    I am also bit aware of navigation rules of JSF. Now I want the user to take to the step 2 if he chooses the option Pass and if the user chooses Fail, then I want to reset the values of the above form and display the same form.
    I have not done any Java part of the application yet as I am a newbee and hence started doing JSP pages and config-faces.xml part. Please let me know how to proceed further.

    Create a bean, bind the value to the bean, let the action method return that value and add navigation-case entries for those outcomes.

  • How to pupup the calendar value into text box ?

    Hi
    I want to use the calendar for my text field .
    The calendar will popup when I click a button /image. This image will appear next to text box . when click the calendar. The values should come to into text box.
    Please give me any idea how to write a code in jsp for handling the value from calendar.
    Thanks
    Merlin Roshina

    I am assuming u have popupcalendar.js and stylesheets.
    Include the javascript in your jsp.
    <script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/popcalendar.js"/>
    and call the method popUpCalendar on some event like onclick as shown below.
    <img border="1" src="images/calendaricon.jpg" title="Open calendar" onClick="popUpCalendar(this,<object to be populated>,'mm/dd/yyyy')" alt="Calendar"/>
    <object to be populated> u can give it like this for your text box. U can define an id attribute for your text box and call document.getElementById("<id name>")
    and rest the javascript will take care.

  • Infopath - Show All values in Text box From PeoplePicker control (Display Name)

    I have One People Picker Control and one Text box.I set Value of Text box to "Display Name" and problem is that it show only First Value.so is there a way to show all values of "Display Name" in Text box ?
    Thanks

    Thanks
    the link that you provied , didnt help me but i dig into "http://www.infopathdev.com/forums/t/19623.aspx" and found solution.
    here is my solution :
    1- Create one Picker control (i changed name of control to Member ) and one Text Box
    2- Set Value of Text box to xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId, ";")'), "..")
    3- if you changed name's picker control just Replace "../my:Member/pc:Person" with name's People Picker control on your Form.
    Edit 1 : I found out Why the formula in that Blog didn't work.it Because of copy/Paste
    Dont Copy/Paste Formula because maybe you get Error . how ? here :
    if you copy this formula :
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:AccountId,
    result will be in Field :
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, ‘concat(pc:AccountId,
    Look carefully, you see “..” instead ".." , this why you get Error Because of “
    Edit 2 : if you want to show only Display name you can Replace
    "pc:AccountId" to "pc:DisplayName".Here is Formula
    xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../my:Member/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:DisplayName, ";")'), "..")

  • Text Boxes and Lines on Full Screen Images?

    In iBooks Author I'm trying to create images with text boxes and lines overlayed on top of the images (I don't like the interactive image widget, I want just text with no gray box and a single line of text, no need for title and description, also don't need the zoom capability on each label).  I can do this fine in a basic, two column layout but when I tap on an image within a figure to see it full screen on the iPad I want the text and lines to also come full screen.  Any ideas?  I seemed to have a solution by enabling placeholder text authoring but that's proven inconsistent.

    Sound like a 'group'.
    Whatever works
    Good luck

    Reader doesn’t create pdf files. You can use Acrobat (ask in that forum) to create pdfs. You can subscribe to the Adobe PDF Pack which has a create pdf functionality (please ask in that forum), or you can use a third party utility such as ghostscript, cutepdf, or Microsoft’s own PDF creation capability. For third party pdf creation you will need to ask in a forum dedicated to that software as fellow users of Reader are unlikely to have the knowledge to help.

  • Problem with action script 3 make input text box and button....

    Hi every one I am trying to make a family book using "Air for Android" with a simple search engin in the book
    air for android only work with AS3,
    the search function is to type a person's name and hit submit then go to a specific frame.
    have a problem making below code to work in AS3 and hopefully one of you guys can lead me in the right direction to fix the issue.
    Currently, I have an input text box and a button. When you type specific words into the input box and then hit the button it sends you to a specific frame.
    (it work find in AS2 but not in AS3,)
    Here is my current code that is placed on the main timeline, first frame:
    stop();
    onEnterFrame = function () {
        submit.onRelease = function() {
            switch (yourname.text) {
            case "name1" :
                gotoAndStop(2);
                break;
            case "name2" :
                gotoAndStop(3);
                break;
    My button that checks if the phrase is correct is called "submit" and my input box has an instance of "yourname".
    My phrases that will be accepted in the input box are "name1" and "name2" which bring me to two different frames.
    Basically, I'm having a problem with making this to work with AS3.

    you should use the default option in the switch statement
    that way yourname contains something not in one of the case statements it will go to the default bit and execute teh code there
    function onSubmit(e:MouseEvent):void
                                  switch (yourname.text)
                                            case "name1":
                                                      gotoAndStop(2);
                                                      break;
                                            case "name2":
                                                      gotoAndStop(3);
                                                      break;
                                            default:
                                                      goToAndStop(you frame you want);
                                            break;

  • Converting images that include text boxes and callouts in FM

    Hello,
    I'm on a new project (TCS 3.5, RH 9, FM 10) that requires me to include text boxes and lines (callouts) on top / in front of many of the images in FM. The reason they are not allowing me to add the text/callouts to the images themselves is because they want to keep the text boxes editable for translation.
    The problem: After importing into RH, these images have white borders on all sides that they didn't have previously and I can't figure out what's causing it.
    When I remove the text/callouts from over the images in question, then reimport, the problem resolves and the white borders disappear. When I view the original image files, there are no borders present. After I import, I view the image file in the RH folder and it does include the border. (So the border is on the image itself.)
    Presently, the Object Properties for the images are as follows:
    Offset From:
    Top: 0.0"
    Left: 0.0"
    Border Width: 0.015 (which is lowest FM allows me to set... I get an error message when I try to enter 0.0)
    Anchored Frame settings:
    Anchoring Position: Below Current Line
    Alignment: Left
    Cropped/Floating: both unchecked
    I've tried many different variations and tests; probably too many to list here. In short, the "border" appears when there is text/callouts on the image and it disappears when I delete the text/callouts. I was hoping that someone may have had a similar issue. Please let me know if you need more info to troubleshoot and thanks for reading.
    Best,
    Tom

    I had the same problem with callouts, but my solution was to add them directly to the image, so that doesn't help you.
    Another things you can try to is ensure that the edges of the image do not touch the edges of the anchored frame. Make sure there is a bit of white space. I don't know why, but when any of my images touch the anchored frame, the conversion looks awful.
    Also, my images appeared best in Robohelp when I set the properties for the image in Robohelp as follows:
    File > Project Settings
    Import tab
    Edit conversion settings for FrameMaker documents
    On the left side, select Image
    Set Width and Height to 0pt (this ensures that the image is not resized)

  • How to get the text boxes and select lists dynamically?

    Hi,
    I have a requirement such that I need to create the text boxes and select lists depending on the user input at the run time. It means that if the user requires four text boxes/select lists then I need to have 4 such thing. If the user need 6 then I need to have 6.
    The design may be such that initially only one text box/select list will be available when the page launches. Then as ad when the user asks for more those will be available to the user accordingly.
    regards,
    Dipankar.

    You can use Ajax to call textboxes and select list based on what user enters.
    Otherwise make those items conditional and based on what user enters you can display textbox or select list.
    You can call Single Textbox and Select List using Ajax for any number of conditions.
    Regards
    Chandra
