Search Forms by Checkbox or Radio Button state ?
I use and store Acrobat forms which we index (Catalog) and can search by text to retrieve a particular form. Several forms use checkboxes to convey some of the required information and it would be useful to search (or narrow a search) by particular checkbox state. Anyone done this successfully? (eg by adding a script to a checkbox action that would insert hidden but searchable text relating to the checkbox.... or is there a better way.... or a better way with LiveCycle forms?
Thanks.
Thanks for the response Michael.
You are right of course, but the problem is what we might call 'the usual':- Acrobat and Reader are excellent for deploying the forms and collecting the responses, everyone is familiar with the search interface (though it could be much better) and we don't generally deploy database software within the organisation, so very few people are familiar either with constructing or using. I will explore for my own use though.

How to realize Checkbox and Radio Buttons based on Attributes in JHeadstart
Hy@ all,
I try to redevelop the Summit Forms Demo in ADF.
The module "ORDER" contains, among other things, a checkbox and radio buttons based on database columns(VARCHAR2).
The column(checkbox) named PAYMENT_TYPE contains the values CASH and CREDIT and the column(radio button) called ORDER_FILLED contains the values Y and N.
After creating the business components, I set in JHeadstarts Application Definition the Display Type of these two attributes to checkBox and radio-horizontal.
I created a dymanic domain for the radio-horizontal and a static domain for the checkBox.
The radio-horizontal within the dymanic domain works nearly correct.
I set the Data Collection in this dynamic domain to the required Group and the Value and Meaning Attribute to the necessary Attribute.
Within the JSF- Page the values are shown right but unfortunately there are too many radio buttons available. Instead of displaying the two radio buttons CASH and CREDIT were many CASH and CREDIT radio buttons shown.
I can´t find any solution for this case.
The problem with the checkBox is that therfore a static domain is required but I want to show the value of the checkBox based on the described attribute, like the handling of the radio horizontal.
But I don´t know how to implement this, if it is possible.
I´m using JHeadstart v10.1.3.2 and I´m pleased about any reply or solution.
Best regards
ChrisChris,
If you run the application module tester, and query the view object usage underlying your dynamic domain, how many rows does it return? It should return only two rows, one for CASH and one for CREDIT. If more than two rows are returned, your query is wrong.
What is the problem with using a static domain for the checkbox?

Preserving radio button state between frames
Is there a way in CS3 to preserve radio button state (selected or not) from frame to frame?
I have a multi-frame app where users select either yes or no (radio buttons) to an array of questions; as they complete these questions they click a forward button to move on to the next frame (set of questions). But I am wanting to add a back button that allows them to go back and change their answers...how I can preserve the state of radio buttons clicked on previous frames, so that when they go back to a previous frame (or frames) those radio buttons they selected are still selected?If the design is timeline based you will need to configure some form of memory (such as an array) to retain selection data so that when you enter a frame you use what is stored to set things up.

Tree structure with checkboxes and radio buttons
Hi,
I am using SNODETEXT as tree structure. On the child node, I need to have checkboxes and radio buttons. Is this possible?Hi
Muse does not currently have dropdown lists, radio buttons, or checkboxes as part of the forms. You may want to check out using Adobe FormsCentral, Jotform, or Wufoo and inserting them via Object > Insert HTML as an alternative from the Muse forms, as those forms will have the lists, buttons, and checkboxes you're looking for.
Another way if you are publishing your site to Business Catalyst, then you can create forms in BC admin section and copy the form html in Muse page which will render the from that you have created in BC in your Muse site page.

Radio button state on region load...
Is there a way to set the radio button state (click event) on a region load? The default value of 0 (read-only) works when clicked, but doesn't when the page initially loads, and it's like the button click event needs to take place at the region load time. The values are 1 and 0 set statically if that matters, and the hidden value does not get changed when the radio button with the value of 1 is selected.
The button makes the button visible when 'edit' is selected and the button disappears when 'read-only' is selected which is the expected behavior.
I do have a condition on the 'save' button for the value to not be zero which is based on the value from the radio button.
My gut says it'll be a region header attribute or Java Script sort of thing and I've not found anything so far, and I'm hoping there's an Apex guru out there that has a recommendation.
Thanks in advance!
MattI used some source I found on Denes' web site and added the call, but it didn't yield the result I was hoping for.
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
$s('P8_RADIO_BUTTON','0');
function f_showhideButtonRadio(pThis, pValue)
{ var show_or_hide = html_RadioValue(pValue);
if (show_or_hide == 0)
{html_HideElement(pThis);}
else
{html_ShowElement(pThis);}
function f_showhideButtonSelect(pThis, pValue)
{ var show_or_hide = $x(pValue).value;
if (show_or_hide == 0)
{html_HideElement(pThis);}
else
{html_ShowElement(pThis);}
</script>
I'm quite new to the Java Script in Apex, so if I hosed this up, please let me know. Also, does that set the click event on or does that just set the value? The reason I ask is with a 0 or 1 it yielded the same result.
Thanks!

Simplifyin​g Large Amount of Checkboxes or Radio Buttons
Hey everyone,
I am having an issue with handling a problem. I think part of is that I don't know how to approach the problem. Let me explain the problem and my idea for the solution(you'll see why it's difficult or tedious)
Problem: Our software records 145 channels. Sometimes we use all of these channels, but more often than not, we use a fraction of this. Due to the complexity of the acquisition code, which was written outside of the lab, we have decided to handle this issue by post processing data. We want to see a list of the channels, and select which ones we want to remove.
My solution: Create a front panel with all of the channels name(dynamic) and a checkbox or radio button next to each one. I have gotten the names, but the only way I can see to handle the check boxes is to make 145 of them, which means I'll have 145 controls in my block diagram and that can be a bit of a cluster(pun intended). I couldn't find anything that LabVIEW had built in or anything on the forums. I may have been looking for the wrong thing. I would appreciate any guidance or solutions.
If I just need to put my big boy pants on and deal with the high amount of controls, I will. I have always been under the impression that if it code looks too ugly, you're probably doing it wrong.
Thanks,
SethIt also depends if all these channels can be splitted into logical groups. In this case you can bundle them in clusters.
In the attached picture there is a cluster containing 16 smaller clusters. Note that in the actual application there is 2 other tabs with similar cluster of clusters. These 3 major clusters where also bundled into a master Signal Select cluster (this was developped in LV2009 so the cluster constant took an awful lot of block diagram space, I welcomed the cluster constat icon feature introduced in LV2010!).
In the lower right you can see how this unbundled.

Remembering the radio button state between jsp pages
How do i maintain the state of radio buttons when i move from one jsp page to another. Thank you for your help.
Hi
If the next JSP is a child window,you can take a JSP hidden variable and you can store radio button state in it and can get the same on child window thorugh window.opener.
And if its not a child window(JSP),then you can maintain the state in session and get it anywhere. -
Values of checkboxes and radio buttons not recognised
Hi folks,
I have a bit of a strange problem and I'm hoping you can help shed some light.
Basically I have a form with various elements in it, some of which seem to have a problem telling my pl/sql code what their values are. The culprits seem to be radio buttons and check boxes. Now those are individual items created with the wizard within a specific section if the outcome is different from sql created form elements in tables.
The radio buttons is one field, let's call it :P100_RADIO which returns either 'AB', 'CD' or 'EF'. The checkbox, let's call it :P100_CHECKBOX is just one checkbox returning the value 'Y' if it's checked.
after submit, I have a process which among other things checks the value returned by those two elements to set a variable v_paid either as 'Y' or 'N'
as a small summary of what I'm trying to do, here's a code snippet:
v_checkbox varchar2(1);
v_paid varchar2(1);
begin
v_checkbox := :P100_CHECKBOX;
if v_checkbox is not null AND :P100_RADIO = 'CD' THEN
v_paid := 'Y';
else
v_paid := 'N';
end if;
end;If I submit my form I get the error message
"ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error"If I change the condition to v_checkbox is not null only, I get the same error
If I change it to v_checkbox != '' I don't get an error but v_paid is set with 'N'
If I change it to v_checkbox = 'Y', I get the same error again
If I change it to *:P100_RADIO = 'CD'* only, I get the error as well.
I also mistakenly tried v_checkbox is null and it submitted fine, though the value of v_paid was still 'N'
I've tried changing the varchar2(1) to something greater, up to varchar2(4000) but that didn't make any difference.
So I seem to understand there's a discrepancy of types somewhere but I can't work out where or how to change that. In my code an insert is performed after the if statement and the value of :P100_RADIO is added to the table with the expected value.
After looking at the source of the page produced by Apex, I also tried to replace :P100_CHECKBOX with :P100_CHECKBOX_0 but that didn't make a difference either. It's possible Apex thinks :P100_RADIO and :P100_CHECKBOX are supposed to return some sort of arrays but just why it would just return a string in an sql statement beats me.
The worst thing is, I'm fairly certain the code worked the first time I implemented it. So if anyone has any idea of what's going on that would be quite helpful. As always, I have a nagging suspicion it's a silly tiny mistake somewhere I just can't see.
Thanks folks :)okay here's the code for the whole procedure. Some variable names have been changed but it's otherwise the same code:
DECLARE
v_total_cost NUMBER(10,2);
v_deposit NUMBER(10,2);
v_remaining NUMBER(10,2);
v_payment_type varchar2(2);
v_checkbox varchar2(4000);

Form from hell (Flash Radio Buttons)
Does anyone have a bead out there on a behavior that you can
use with the native Flash radio button groups in Director MX 2004.
I am going freakin' bonkers trying to write a behavior for
these things.The Flash Components are not documented in Director, though
they are
documented in Flash. If you can parse the dense and difficult
to
understand Flash Help file (and yes, you would need to have
Flash to get
it), then you can see all the docs for those components.
Before I go much further, I should say that in my experience,
using
#flashComponents is a painful and tedious business. I do not
recommend
it. It will probably be MUCH easier on you in the long run if
you write
your own script from scratch.
But, for the sake or archival completeness, this is a script
that will
do what you want with the checkbox/radio button
#flashComponents:
1) Go into the Property Inspector and on the FlashComponent
tab for each
member, make sure that the eventPassMode is set to
#passAlways
2) Put this code onto the buttons:
on mouseUp me
if sprite(me.spriteNum).selected then
sendAllSprites(#deselect,me.spriteNum)
end if
end
on deselect me, vExcept
if me.spriteNum<>vExcept then
sprite(me.spriteNum).selected=0
end if

Automatic Graphics Switching: Checkbox vs Radio Buttons
In the Energy Saver preferences pane, there is a toggle for graphics switching on my rMBP. Sometimes this displays as two radio buttons for Better Performance or Longer Battery Life. Sometimes this appears as a checkbox for Automatic graphics switching. Why does it display one way or another; is there any difference between the radio buttons and the checkbox?
I thought it might be something like that, but I've seen both modes when I'm on battery power. I'm plugged in right now and it's giving me the radio buttons.
Interestingly, when the radio buttons are shown it defaults to Higher performance even though the current setting appears to be Better battery life (indicated by the You must log out…message, which disappears when I select Better battery life). This happens every time I see the radio buttons. -
Getting form field values for radio button
Hello to the forum.
I have a form in which I want to control the value selected in a radio buttons field on whether to allow access to another field.
I can't find info neither here nor in the examples.
Anybody know how to do?
Thank in advance.Hi,
You can use the change event of the radio button list.
Select the readio button list exclusion group, in script editor select the "change" event. As an example if we have two selections "aa" and "bb" which have values 1 and 2 respectively.
You can write this Javascript code to change event.
if(this.rawValue == 1)
xfa.host.messageBox("aa");
else if(this.rawValue == 2)
xfa.host.messageBox("bb");
Hope helps,

I am creating a form for a hospital. I have a form with Yes/No checkboxes. I want the results of these checkboxes to trigger the display of predefined texts in textboxes on the same document. For example, if it says: "Neck Pain? Y N" and they click "Y", I want a message to be entered in an "Instructions" box on the form. I've got the form made, I just need direction on the if/then for all the clicking. i.e., "if they click YES on this, type out THIS in this other field..."etc.
Use this as the mouse up script for the checkbox:
if (event.target.value!="No") { //If checkbox is ticked
this.getField("Textbox1").value = "Instructions for Neck Pain Go Here"; //Replace Textbox1 with the name of your field
else this.getField("Textbox1").value = ""; //Clear the text field if checkbox is not ticked -
I've tried css with selector input[type="checkbox"] but this has no effect.
You need to add <b>-moz-appearance:none!important;</b>
