Returned (mailed) form expands fields again?

Hi
Sorry for the very basic question but I have an irritating problem
I created some LC forms which have the functionality that if you select a certain country some fields appear/dissapear depending of the choice of the country.
I also attached a 'send form' button so that the filled form is mailed back in PDF to a central point. This all seems to work perfectly.
The problem now is that the returned pdf always shows all fields regardless of the choice of the country made. Where I hoped it would send back the PDF as saved and thus only showing the fields that are needed for that specific country.
Is there a way to change this so that it matches my expectations?
Thanks

The issue is that you are changing the state of the form by hiding and showing content based on selections. This information is not being saved by the form when you send it. In Designer, if you go to File/Form Properties/Defaults and under the Scripting area make sure the Preserve Scripting Changes to Form is set to Automatically and not Manually and try it again.

My wife has left me for four weeks, favouring to be with our son who lives 4,000 km away. I now have to cook for myself and the steaks taste horrible. What am I doing wrong?
If you do not know what I have (not) done to make the steak taste horrible, my question is as hard to answer as your question above.
Please give us more info like giving us the code that sends the page to the homepage rather than to the previous page.

Adope Acrobat 9 Standard - Form text field expand

I have created a form with fili-in text fields. Some of the fields as they are being completed may require the text field to expand. In Acrobat 9 standard is it possible to have the text field in a form expand? Any help wpuld be greatly appreciated. I have been searching for the answer for some time and I come accross the suggestion of a " dynamic Form " .
Do I need to aquire a new version or a different program. These are simple registration forms I create and sometimes a person completing the form needs additonal space.

Bernd has given the answer, but just to add a bit you can still type in a text field without expanding and the info will just scroll. In that sense, all of the info is still there. It all depends on your intent. If it is to get the info into a database, then you would simply use the distribute option (if available in Std) and that will provide a summary of form data submitted on receipt. That info can be sent to a spreadsheet or database from the summary file. Again, this distribute option may not be available in Std. For the more dynamic fields that change size, you have to move to Pro and use Designer for the forms. More info on Designer can be asked in the LiveCycle forum.

Error when generating mail form, no data in field PLANSTART_IO

Hi,
I have added the structure CRM_MKTPL_CAMPAIGN_TASK to my scenario in customizing. But when I try to test my new mail form, then there is no data in the field Planned_start from my campaign element, PLANSTART_IO.
How do I make data available in my marketing form from my marketing element?
Kind Regards

Multiple Page flowed form with expandable field, causing a blank page

I have a 3 page form with an expandable field on page 1. I've set the pages up as flowable with positioned subforms and everything is working well, until you type a lot of info into the expandable field and it moves everything else in page 1 down to page 2, the problem appears after the text is moved, there is a huge blank space after the text that was moved. Basically the rest of the information is moved to page 3 and then there is a page 4. Hope this makes sense.
Original - Page 1, Page 2, Page 3
Expanded past the page - Page 1&2 (then big blank space), Page 3, Page 4
I'd just like the pages to flow together so if the expanded box moves to the next page the sections just continue to follow without a huge blank space on page 2.

It sounds as if some of your content is set to not allow page breaks within it. Have you checked all containing sub forms for the option below?

How to make expandable field in pdf forms?

Does anyone here know how to make expandable field in a PDF form?
I want the field, originally appear to be a 1-liner, to expands when you put in more text and everything that is underneath the expandable field shifts or moves down.
pls help.
Thanks!

No, LiveCycle Designer is not included in Creative Cloud and is available only for Windows. It was included with the Windows version of Acrobat Pro before Acrobat 11 but is now a separate program and about $300.

Fetching Form Data... does not return form's field list to edit

I have a Portal Form based on a view. It works fine if I run it.
Suddenly I am unable to edit the form field properties:
1) In the application list, I do not get run option for the form.
2) If I go to manage and edit, "Fetching Form Data..." does not return the list of fields, so I am unable to change field properties.
3) I can still run the form.
Please help, I need to fix this within hours.
Thanks in advance.

I think I know what causes the error. Whenever I use HTML tags inside the Display Options/label text box I get this error.
I have tried <p align="right">xyz</p> and <h4 align="right">xyz</h4>. In both cases I can run the form the first time and the label appears right justified, but when you try to edit the form, bottom left shows "error on page" and field data does not show up.
To fix this I had to go to the version before I added the HTML tags to the label.
Thank you for your help.

Help with field verification mail form

Could someone help me please? I have a flash and php based mail form that needs to have the fields verified. So when a user does not insert info in the text fields, an error clip will play. The form works fine without the verification of fields, but I want to prevent from receiving blank emails.
The form is created in 2 parts or tutorials since I'm trying to add field verification or error message. Here are the links of the tutorials.
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/play?id=50 and the next link is for the field verification.
http://www.macromediahelp.com/flash/php_flash_contact_form//
I'm using CS3 with AS1 and 2. Here is my original AS without the verification.
stop();
var senderLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var receiveLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
submit2.onRelease = function() {
senderLoad.name2 = name2.text;
senderLoad.email2 = email2.text;
senderLoad.address2 = address2.text;
senderLoad.phone2 = phone2.text;
senderLoad.sendAndLoad("http://www.agdeal.com/flash/sendmike2.php",receiveLoad);
receiveLoad.onLoad = function() {
if(this.sentOK) {
_root.gotoAndStop("success");
        else {
_root.gotoAndStop("failed");
Any help is MUCH Appreciated Thanks.

I'm not quite sure that will work. I seem to be using a whole different kind of actionscript. As you can see in my first post, i'm using 2 frames for success and failed to let the user know what's going on. I have done some modifications since then, adding an "error" mc. It seems to work, but now it won't go to the success frame if all is correct.
I don't really care if I have to use a movie clip or just make it go to another frame. As long as the user knows what's happening. I'm not very good with actionscripting, and as I mentioned in my first post... I used 2 different tutorials for the form. It's like having to match another tutorial that works with what I have already. 1st tutorial was for the form itself. But then I found that I need to have fields validated so that's what the second link is. Below is my modified AS. I would upload my form document but it appears I can't upload a zip file let alone a .fla. Otherwise my email is [email protected] if anyone needs to see my source files if that could help.
stop();
submit2.onRelease = function() {
    if (name2.text == "" || email2.text == "" || address2.text == "" || phone2.text == "")
        error_clip.gotoAndPlay(2);
    else
        error_clip.gotoAndStop(1);
var senderLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var receiveLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
        senderLoad.name2 = name2.text;
        senderLoad.email2 = email2.text;
        senderLoad.address2 = address2.text;
        senderLoad.phone2 = phone2.text;
        senderLoad.sendAndLoad("http://www.agdeal.com/flash/sendm2.php",receiveLoad);
receiveLoad.onLoad = function() {
if(this.sentOK) {
_root.gotoAndStop("success");
        else {
_root.gotoAndStop("failed");

We have a saying in the Netherlands; "Not being abled to see the tree's trough the forest"
Well i dont see it anymore...
I managed to get it in the code but it doesnt work.
I hope someone can help me out!

@Nancy O.
Thanks for your support i appreciate it that you helped me out a many times.
However i have read all of the topics you posted.
I know in the mail form i can disable the "sort of Captcha". I wanted to disable it and insert reCaptcha instead.
I will re-make the form because like you said (and i already figured it out myself) ;
"b) Don't modify forms until you get a very basic form working on your server."
And youre right, im taking too much work at once.
@CowboyInAZ
Im a hobbyist that learns really really fast.
Before March 23 i never used CSS, Javascript and XHTML. And never combined them all together with PHP. (never ever created a php based file from scratch)
The reason why i use other persons code is because i learn faster with examples, and because i dont need to reinvent the wheel if someone already invented it. The only thing i do with it is learn the workings, customise it and at last, rewrite the code when i understand it.
If you look at my current site: http://www.wientjesvoegwerk.nl/
You will notice that the site is validated by W3C with no errors and warnings.
I think it was Nancy O. that gave me the link to the validator. Thats how i discovered the service.
You need to know that in 1 day (from 63 errors and 12 warnings) i removed all errors. And i didnt knew much about it, and why errors happend while the site looks fine.
So im just curious how things work and thats why i "steal" codes and adjust them to learn myself.
I also want a education like you spoke of, but im interested in a different media.
I want to be abled to create my dream project wich involves new ways for game studios to earn money.
This is just a simple start, im also taking tutorials in C#, C++.

BDC and ERMS fact based attributes in Mail forms

Hello,
We are running CRM 7.0 ( no Ehp's yet)
I am trying to create a mail form with some information from the currently opened "Complaint" ( transaction number, description) , so I can 'insert" them in my email reply.
I created new BDC attributes in SPRO configuration,
SPRO->CRM->IC WEBCLIENT->Additional Functions->intent Driven action->add BDC attributes
But only the attributes from Business Partner (ERMS automated process) are populated dynamically in the mail form. Other attributes from categories (ERMS Fact based attributes, BDC attributes, Additional fields) not returning any value, though I add them in mail form design.
I've applied the following notes without any success..
1660306 ,1666332, 1645600
I wonder if I am missing configuration.
any pointers much appreciated.

Returned pdfs show blank fields, but data is there

After searching the forums, I've found this issue several times, but never saw a resolution...
I have an pdf form - Enabled - created with Adobe 9 Pro.
Often when a client returns the form to me, the fields appear blank. When I click on the field, the data is there and does appear, but then disappears again when I click away. When I print the returned form, it prints blank.
I orginially thought the common thread was that the client was using a mac, but I think this does happen occasionally with a pc user.
Attached is a live example of the issue, this one definitely submitted by a mac user.
Anxious to find a solution...
Thanks!

I have seen this happen when the user fills in the form on the Mac OS using Preview instead of Adobe Reader. The answer is to get them to use Reader.

Export target group by using mail form?

Hi Gurus,
we have a requirements to export the target group to a file but with the attributes we defined in Mailform. If I chose the export to a file then I need to enhance a BADI to define all these attributes again.
Is it possible to export target group to a file by leverage the mail forms?
We are working on CRM7.0
Thanks,
Wu

Hi Hongfa,
Export target group to file
You use this function to export the business partner data for target group members to a file, so that you can process this data further at a later date, or simply for storage purposes.
You can choose which business partner fields the export file will contain. You use the BAdI CRM_MKTTG_SEG_MEM_EX to define the fields you require.
The name of the file you create is freely definable. The file name you specify is saved in the logical file path MARKETING_FILES, which you define in Customizing (see Prerequisites). The data is written to two files: a data file that contains the actual data, and a meta file that contains the description of the data (for example, field types and field descriptions). In the standard system, MARKETING_FILES refers to the DIR_GLOBAL directory (transaction AL11). There is no restriction on the number of business partners.
Thanks & Regards,
Srini

1000's of Returned Mail messages every day!

Hi All,
I am receiving thousands of Returned Mail and Undeliverable Mail messages every day in my Mail application.
Here is the problem description:
I used to have a MobileMe (.mac) account and a corresponding email address. I did not renew my MobileMe account this year. Now, whenever Mail receives any valid message to my existing RoadRunner email address, that same message is being automatically resent to the defunct .mac email address and since it is no longer a valid address, it is being returned to my inbox as Undeliverable or Returned. The same message is being resent apparently many many times for each valid message I receive in my inbox. The result is literally thousands of undeliverable email messages clogging my account. Each time it is resent, it copies all the headers and the original message so by the time the same message is received over and over again the message sizes are well over 2 MB in size! It is an endless repeating cycle.
What I have done so far:
Called RoadRunner - they said to delete and reinstall Mail
Deleted Mail and reinstalled
Deleted Mail preferences
Turned off all iSync functions
Searched for and deleted all references to the invalid .mac email address on my computer
Turned off all notifications from iCal
Upgraded OS from 10.5.x to 10.6.7
None of this has stopped the torrents of messages…PLEASE HELP.
Would not like to have to erase the hard drive and reinstall the OS from scratch if possible.

THANK YOU FOR READING AND HELPING IF YOU CAN.

Are the returned messages showing all different recipients? If so, it's possible someone has hacked into your MobileMe account and is using it to send out spam.
A brute force spamming will result in thousands of failed return messages. That happens when a spammer sends out mail to a know mail server, such as Hot Mail. They'll send the same message to [email protected], [email protected], etc. Do this for thousands of addresses and many will be returned by the receiving server as undeliverable because there is no user on their system by [email protected], and any other address with no match.
Or, your address is simply being spoofed by a prolific spammer. They picked up your email address as a valid address and are spoofing it in the From field. Doesn't matter that the thousands of emails that went out from them with your name as the sender didn't come from you, the receiving server just assumes it did and you get the bounce messages.
For the first, go in and change your password and see if that stops the flow. For the latter, there's really nothing you can do. Spammers will only use someone's address for a short while. Otherwise, the "from" address gets blacklisted automatically by mail servers, which would cut off the spammer's ability to send out more crap in your name. Then it's someone else who has to put up with it for a few days.

Query on email message via dreamweaver mail form

Hello All,
First time I've done a mail form so not sure if this is what is supposed to happen. When an email is received via the mail form it has 'submit submit' at the bottom of the message and I'd like to get rid of it if poss.
The code is:
<div id="form"><form id="contactform" name="contactform" method="post" action="FormToEmail.php">
      <label>Your Name:<br />
<input name="name" type="text" id="name" />
<br />
</label>
<br />
<label>Your Email Address:<br />
<input name="email" type="text" id="email" />
</label>
<br />
<br />
<label>Your Message:<br />
<textarea name="message" cols="50" rows="10" id="message"></textarea>
</label>
<br />
<br />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
And the php is:
$errors = array();
// Remove $_COOKIE elements from $_REQUEST.
if(count($_COOKIE)){foreach(array_keys($_COOKIE) as $value){unset($_REQUEST[$value]);}}
// Check all fields for an email header.
function recursive_array_check_header($element_value)
global $set;
if(!is_array($element_value)){if(preg_match("/(%0A|%0D|\n+|\r+)(content-type:|to:|cc:|bcc: )/i",$element_value)){$set = 1;}}
else
foreach($element_value as $value){if($set){break;} recursive_array_check_header($value);}
recursive_array_check_header($_REQUEST);
if($set){$errors[] = "You cannot send an email header";}
unset($set);
// Validate email field.
if(isset($_REQUEST['email']) && !empty($_REQUEST['email']))
if(preg_match("/(%0A|%0D|\n+|\r+|:)/i",$_REQUEST['email'])){$errors[] = "Email address may not contain a new line or a colon";}
$_REQUEST['email'] = trim($_REQUEST['email']);
if(substr_count($_REQUEST['email'],"@") != 1 || stristr($_REQUEST['email']," ")){$errors[] = "Email address is invalid";}else{$exploded_email = explode("@",$_REQUEST['email']);if(empty($exploded_email[0]) || strlen($exploded_email[0]) > 64 || empty($exploded_email[1])){$errors[] = "Email address is invalid";}else{if(substr_count($exploded_email[1],".") == 0){$errors[] = "Email address is invalid";}else{$exploded_domain = explode(".",$exploded_email[1]);if(in_array("",$exploded_domain)){$errors[] = "Email address is invalid";}else{foreach($exploded_domain as $value){if(strlen($value) > 63 || !preg_match('/^[a-z0-9-]+$/i',$value)){$errors[] = "Email address is invalid"; break;}}}}}}
// Check referrer is from same site.
if(!(isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) && !empty($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) && stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'],$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']))){$errors[] = "You must enable referrer logging to use the form";}
// Check for a blank form.
function recursive_array_check_blank($element_value)
global $set;
if(!is_array($element_value)){if(!empty($element_value)){$set = 1;}}
else
foreach($element_value as $value){if($set){break;} recursive_array_check_blank($value);}
recursive_array_check_blank($_REQUEST);
if(!$set){$errors[] = "You cannot send a blank form";}
unset($set);
// Display any errors and exit if errors exist.
if(count($errors)){foreach($errors as $value){print "$value<br>";} exit;}
if(!defined("PHP_EOL")){define("PHP_EOL", strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS,0,3) == "WIN") ? "\r\n" : "\n");}
// Build message.
function build_message($request_input){if(!isset($message_output)){$message_output ="";}if(!is_array($request_input)){$message_output = $request_input;}else{foreach($request_input as $key => $value){if(!empty($value)){if(!is_numeric($key)){$message_output .= str_replace("_"," ",ucfirst($key)).": ".build_message($value).PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL;}else{$message_output .= build_message($value).", ";}}}}return rtrim($message_output,", ");}
$message = build_message($_REQUEST);
$message = $message . PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL."-- ".PHP_EOL."";
$message = stripslashes($message);
$subject = "TOP FLOOR WEBSITE ENQUIRY";
$headers = "From: " . $_REQUEST['email'];
mail($my_email,$subject,$message,$headers);
?>
Thanks alot in advance

Wow. Not much defeats legibilty quite as well as avoiding line feeds and indention in recursive code! (and inserting multiple blank lines? Was that this online editor?)
Anyway, I did not test this, but try replacing your build_message function,
function build_message($request_input){if(!isset($message_output)){$message_output ="";}if(!is_array($request_input)){$message_output = $request_input;}else{foreach($request_input as $key => $value){if(!empty($value)){if(!is_numeric($key)){$message_output .= str_replace("_"," ",ucfirst($key)).": ".build_message($value).PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL;}else{$message_output .= build_message($value).", ";}}}}return rtrim($message_output,", ");}
With this:
function build_message($request_input) {
if(!isset($message_output)) {
    $message_output ="";
if(!is_array($request_input)) {
    $message_output = $request_input;
else{
    foreach($request_input as $key => $value) {
      if(!empty($value)) {
        if(!is_numeric($key)) {
          $message_output .= str_replace("_"," ",ucfirst($key)).": ".build_message($value).PHP_EOL.PHP_EOL;
        else {
          if ($key != strtolower('submit') {
            $message_output .= build_message($value).", ";
return rtrim($message_output,", ");
(Added condition for 'submit')
Also, I highly recommend replacing all those $_REQUEST with $_POST or $_GET, whichever is appropriate for your form.
