Single Form with a button for two seperate form versions.

Is it possible to create an option to select between two seperate Form Versions. For example. I have a Transfer Form. But there is an internation version and a domestic version. Both have some simple javascript. I would like to combine these two forms into one document. When the end user opens the form, i would like to have a button for either domestic or internation. Depending on what the end user selects, it loads that version of the form. I have played around for a while and havent gotten anywhere, and i would like to know if there is even a way to acomplish this, or does it have to be two seperate document forms completely?

With Acrobat or Reader XI one can show or hide a template page. You need Acrobat to create a template page.
If your users will be using older versions of Reader, then you would need to hide or unhide form fields.

I was online earlier this week and liked the forms with submit buttons and the Adobe site directed me to upgrade to Adobe PRO XI in order to use forms so I bought five licenses. Just had it installed today and it is now asking me to sign up for forms Central in order to use this feature. What gives? The Adobe site gave me the impression that I would have this feature after purchasing the new upgrade. I would not have purchased the upgrade, let alone five of them had I know this. Am I missing something?

Acrobat XI comes with the Fromscentral AIR application and the ability to create PDF forms authored in Formscentral. To have more than the free (1 form with 50 responses) level account you need to sign up for a Formscentral subscription.

How can I create a custom button for opening a form?

I have a parent form having child forms. In my main form I want to create custom buttons for opening child forms. I want to use master-detail form but there are more than one child forms, and in master-detail form I can only create one detail form. So I will create a form based on a table and in that form I will call the child forms by custom buttons. Can I do that?
Thanx,
Gulsah.

This can be easily done. First open up two instances of your Portal. In one window, you will need to go into your component you wish to link FROM. In the other window you will need to go into your component you wish to link TO. In the component you wish to link TO there will be a moduleid. Note this somewhere. Then, you will see an area that says: "Call Interface: Show". Click on this. (In the window you are linking to.). In this window, you will see a bunch of stuff. At the bottom you will see a URL call. This is the call you need to use. At the top, it explains each piece of the URL call. Just subsitute YOUR appropriate information into the URL call. In the form you wish to link FROM, create a button. Once you create this button, it will appear at the bottom, click on it and you will see an area to insert a Javascript. Click the onClick and insert:
//this is the variable you want to pass from one form to the other
get_field_name = getField(this.form,'COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE');
//this is so you can open the "child" form
window.open('/pls/cc_prod/DAD_NAME.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=MOD_ID_HERE&p_arg_names=_sessionid&p_arg_values=&p_arg_names=COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE&p_arg values='+GETFIELD_NAME+'&p_arg_names=_COLUMN_NAME_IN_DATABASE_cond&p_arg_values=%3D');
In the fourth tab, where it says, "....before displaying form" insert the following: (This will tell the form how to handle the getField function.)
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript1.3">
< !--
function getField(form,fieldName)
var objName = "";
var tmp = "";
var dAction = "";
var sel_idx = 0;
var cnt = 0;
var instance = 0;
var slicedName;
var fillData = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < form.length; i++)
slicedName = form.elements.name.split(".");
tmp = slicedName[2];
instance = parseInt(slicedName[3],10);
if (!tmp)
continue;
objName = tmp;
if (objName == fieldName)
return form.elements[i].value;
//-->
</script>');
I hope this helps.

Use the same form with different button turned on in different calls

Can I use the same form with different buttons turned on in different calls?
Thanks!

This is to avoid piracy. What could happen is, people could buy music, and give it away for free online. Usually it is then you buy a complete album off iTunes that it will only be available on one device. It is tied to that account, and the device must be registered to that account to listen to it.

I want to build a form with radio buttons to limited clients ticking every option.

I want to build a form with radio buttons to limited clients ticking every option. I have a range of products and in order to quote accurately I want to get specific information.

If I get this , you want to show form options to specific clients not to all site viewers ?
You would need to create a secure zone for this where permitted viewers can login and view the form with all options , in form itself we cannot setup this as few customers will view other options and others will view a different one.
This can be done from your hosting end. Or if you are using Adobe server for hosting then you can create some profiles for customers and then setup a separate form altogether to achieve this.
Thanks,

How to use same DFF for two different forms with :BLOCK.field reference

Hi,
Can anyone suggest how to use the same dff in two different forms by using :BLOCK.field reference.
Scenario is the same DFF is referenced by two forms, viz. Form-1 & Form-2.
Form-1 Reference Field is :BLOCK.field name, but the same block is not available in Form-2, which throws an error while opening it.
Any pointers please.
Thanks,

In the environment I currently have access to do not have similar setup.
Let say you setup the DFF1 default value to $HEADER.customer_name, the name of the DFF is CUSTOMER_NAME, description can be anything.
In DFF2, default value should be a SQL, where you can reference the DFF1. For example, SELECT DECODE($FLEX.CUSTOMER_NAME, 'ABC', 1, 'DEF', 2, NULL) FROM dual
In this case, you can reference the DFF1.

Submit button for online PDF form doesn't work for some users

Two online forms I've created in LiveCycle Designer 8.2 work fine for me. But when some of my site's users click on the Submit button in either form, it simply flashes and then does nothing. It's a standard Submit button with a Mailto link. The documents are PDF Version 1.7, and I'm using Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 and Reader 9.4. Any suggestions on troubleshooting would be great.

Has this form been enabled with Form Rights for Reader. If the entire PDF is submitted, then the PDF must be Reader enabled to operate on Reader.
Another issue is that an email submit is entirely dependant on the user's system. There must be a local email client installed and registered with the system. Internet email will not work. This is the most likely issue. Althougth there are other things that could be wrong. You might want to consider using the Acrobat.com to distribute your forms. This method gets around the email issue for most users.
Other issues that could cause this problem are the users' version of Acrobat/Reader as well as any kind of funky system/security setup.

Working with multiple buttons on a jsp form....!

Hi guys...!
I have a jsp form, which has 3 buttons (submit, update, cancel), and I also have a java Servlet that processes that form.
In my java Servlet, i have a method called submitData(). I also want to have a method called updateData(), which will be called when the user clicks on the update button.
These are the codes in my jsp form:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
               function submitFunction (i) {
                    if (i==1) {
                         document.theForm.action="/MyWebApp/FormServlet";
                    if (i==2) {
                         document.theForm.action="/MyBugWebApp/FormServlet";
                    if (i==3) {
                         document.theForm.action="/MyWebApp/DisplayForm.jsp";
                    document.theForm.submit()
          </SCRIPT>
<form name="theForm">
<input type="button" value="Submit" onClick="submitFunction(1)"></input>
<input type="reset" value="Reset"></input>
<input type="button" value="Cancel" onClick="submitFunction(3)"></input>
<input type="button" value="Update" onClick="sumbitFunction(2)"></input>
</form>
As u can see, both the submit and the update button use the same java servlet file. But inside that java servlet file, I want to have methods that will be called inside my doPost() method when the user clicks on update or submit.
I've tried to pass a value through the httpRequest but it doesn't work... This is what I did.
In my javaScript, I added this value in the action attribute:
document.theForm.action="/MyWebApp/FormServlet?id=submit";
document.theForm.action="/MyWebApp/FormServlet?id=update";
I did that because I wanted to be able to retrieve the value of the "id" in my servlet and check which type of action was sent and then call the appropriate function in my servlet.
But, it doesn't work. It returns "null" as the value for "id"
Does anyone know how to do this task??...or what am I doing wrong in my code???
Thanks...

So there are really two solutions to this:
1) Use <input type="submit" instead of buttons. Give all three buttons the same name but different values. Then the button used to submit will be added to the list of parameters.
2) Add a hidden input to the form, and when the form determines which button was pushed, set a different value for the hidden input field. For example of both, take a look at this code:
<html>
<head>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      function formSubmit(i)
        var toSubmit = document.getElementById("myForm")
        if (i == 1) toSubmit.doThis.value="one"
        if (i == 2) toSubmit.doThis.value="two"
        if (i == 3) toSubmit.doThis.value="three"
        toSubmit.submit()
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="myForm" action="" method="get">
      <input type="hidden" name="doThis" /><br />
      <input type="submit" name="whatToDo" onclick="formSubmit(1)" value="Submit" />
      <input type="submit" name="whatToDo" onclick="formSubmit(2)" value="Cancel" />
      <input type="submit" name="whatToDo" onclick="formSubmit(3)" value="Update" />
    </form>
</body>
</html>For method one, if the servlet did:
String whatToDo = request.getParameter("whatToDo");
if ("Submit".equals(whatToDo)) {
//doSubmit();
} else if ("Update".equals(whatToDo)) {
//doUpdate();
} else if ("Cancel".equals(whatToDo)) {
//doCancel();
} else if ("Reset".equals(whatToDo)) {
/doReset();
} else {
//error situation
}Or you could instead look at the hidden value:
String doThis = request.getParameter("doThis");
if ("1".equals(doThis)) { ... }I personally like the submit button with the same names and different values, since the second method breaks if the user has javascript disabled.

Submiting multiple forms with one button

I have a form that has a cfform within it. The cfform has a
cfloop in it that includes an id and a dropdown list box that
includes a new id. I want to transfer one id to another. I want the
user to be able to click on one button that would update all the
rows in the table with the new id.
If there are 3 rows in the query, the user would select an
entry in a dropdown for each row and upon clicking on the submit
button all three rows would be updated with the id selected from
the dropdown.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help!

There isn't a way to set this up using the Paypal payment integrated into FormsCentral using seperate forms for each child, you can set up one form so they can register additional children and then pay in one session, but if you need each child to be a unique form submission it can not be set up to pay for multiple at once.
Thanks,
Josh

Fillable forms with radio buttons (Using Adobe Reader X)

I have two questions: First question, I have a fillable form with "yes" and "no" radio buttons. Currently the radio defaults to answer "yes", but I would like both the "yes" and "no" fields to be empty, which would allow the user to select an answer on his or her own. Second question, is there a way to make an answer required before moving on to the next question?
(Using Adobe Reader X)
Message was edited by: mp2athome

You need to check and make sure that the options for each radio button do not have the "Button is checked by default" selected.
You can make all the following answer radio buttons "read only" and only after one of the choices for the preceding question has been answered are the radio buttons for the next question are write enabled.
You will need Acrobat to create the form.

Need help with required fields for my online form

Hi, I've been mucking around with my online form for a while
and I just can't see what the problem is in the code.
I am trying to make all but two of the form items to be
required upon form validation. However, it doesn't work, nothing is
required now.
I'm using these two ways of doing it (natemail.php is my form
handler).
<form action="../NateMail.php" method="post"
enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" id="Man Meets Woman
Long Form Opt-in"
onsubmit="MM_validateFormMM_validateForm("date","first_name","last_name","alias","address ","city","prov_state","postal","country","phone","email","birthdate","Sex","marital_status ","other_forums","methods_known","want_learn","coaching","invite_friends","about_myself"," terms_conditions");return
document.MM_returnValue">
...is one way and the other is:
<input name="require" type="hidden" id="require"
value="date,first_name,last_name,alias,address,city,prov_state,postal,country,phone,email ,birthdate,Sex,marital_status,other_forums,methods_known,want_learn,coaching,invite_friend s,about_myself,terms_conditions"
/>
The page is
http://www.vancouversocialboard.com/register.html
Can anyone tell me my error and tell me the proper way to do
this?
Thank you!

> (never did figure out what the 'MM_validateForm code was
supposed to be)
It's a call to a Dreamweaver javascript function that
validates your form.
The function definition should be in the head of the page.
