Submit button issue

I created a static form in LiveCycle. Then, in order enable the reader rights and allow users to add attachments in the comments, I opened it in Acrobat Pro and enabled the rights and distributed it. But, when it's posted on the intranet, the user sees an Internet Explorer pop-up asking if they want to open or save the file. If they open it, it opens in the IE browser and they can't add attachments or submit the form.

Some here may have an answer. However, you might find a useful answer in the LiveCycle forum that is directed to the use of Designer.

Submit button issue in Acrobat 8 Professional/LifeCycle Designer

I am using Acrobat 8 Professional and LifeCycle Designer 8.0 on a PC with XP Pro. I first made forms using the default email submit button and had an XML data file submitted.
I'm now making the forms to submit as a pdf file rather than an XML file. I selected a regular button rather than the email submit button provided and made it a submit button to be submitted as a pdf.
The forms are being sent as pdf files attached to emails using Outlook. The issue is that every computer has a different "reaction" to this submit button. My computer (PC), when I tested the forms,everything was fine - Outlook opened and I was able to submit the file. On another PC in my office, when she clicked the submit button, nothing happened at all. On a PC at home, I got an error message "this operation is not permitted." And someone on a Macintosh did not even get a submit button showing up on the pdf.
We need to be able to send these files out so that everyone can complete them easily. I would appreciate any ideas on how to make the submit button so that it works on all platforms and computers.
Thank you so much,
Marcy

Thank you to you both for your suggestions.
Actually, Bill, this will not be a controlled environment at all. We want to be able to email forms to all of the 80 parents in the school, and have the parents complete them as pdf's and submit the information back to us as a complete pdf form. This opens up the potential for 80 different computers/ISPs/environments. And of course, my supervisor wants it seamless and easy with no glitches for all 80!! So as you can see, I have my challenge with this project.

Email submit button issue

Hi Guys,
I have designed few forms recently and i am fairly new to livecyle, I have actually 2 issues, bit odd and i have tried to be as much discriptive as i can.
email submit button on all my forms works but it sends email to one perticular address and not to one that i programmed it to.
I.e. Form 1 - email to [email protected] - when i press submit button it will send email to [email protected]
Form 2 - email to [email protected] - when i press submit button it will send email to [email protected]
Form 3 - email to [email protected] - when submit button is pressed it sends email to [email protected]
Now when i use this button on actual form it sends email to right addresse but it is obviously in XML format and wouldnt work for us, when i use button on distributed copy of the form (created via distribute form button) it sends email to wrong addresse in PDF formate (which is the formate we like).
Also whatever i put in Email Subject box - it will always put "submitting completed form" in the email subject line.
Not sure if it makes any different but we use outlook and i have tried this from several pcs.
I think i have cheked and rechecked everything and can't fix it, any help would be great.
Process i use to create this button is - Insert >standard>email submit, i will then put desired email address and email subject in relevant fields under Object pellette.
Thanks,
H

There are two ways to set the adress in LiveCycle I know:
1st is with the button itself, second is with Javascript/Formcalc.
If I got you right and you have 3 different forms you could search for the [email protected] adress in the xml's and exchange it there or check out where the form gains the mail adress from. It's the easiest method to get rid of something you are not that sure where it is located in the form but know what it does ;D . (I had some similar problem since I overtook forms of someone else.)
Did you check this thread out? http://forums.adobe.com/thread/462681?tstart=0
Paul gave an example there how to deal with the various things on mail buttons.
Edit: PS: On which event did you script it? Normally you can't script on the mail button itself so you need a fake button like Paul said.
I'm also not good with Reader Extensions, since I can't experiment with those sry

Email Submit button issue after distrbution

I am trying to distribute and collect forms at work using the email submit button. I am able to successfully submit the form when in preview mode, however something happens when I use the distribute function. I distributed the email to my office as a test and when they click Submit they get a Check Names window that says: Microsoft Outlook does not recognize "1. Double-click the attachment."
I also attempted to use my home computer (where I do not have Outlook) to submit the email and had no problems submitting (using gmail).
What is going on, and how do I fix it?

I didn't so much resolve the issue, as found a way around it. Since the problem only arose when using the email distribute button, I just didn't use it and emailed the survey as an attachment through outlook.
I suspect the problem comes from upgrading Adobe Acrobat, but no one seems to know.

Email submit Button issues on form

I am having an issue with attempting to generate email with a button in my form. I had created one some time ago (using Acrobat PRO 9-Live Cycle) and the button generating email to a specific person seemed to be functioning properly. I now had a person tell me that the usual person was not receiving his email. When taking a closer look (I am now using Acrobat X) at the same form, the email function worked appropriately for me and went to the appropriate person.
Now, however, when I took that same form into designer to make some additions and continue looking at the button, I wrote out a new version of the form and the very same button does not function the same way. Previously, a pop-up would appear and you could choose your normal e-mail or internet email and then, when choosing your normal method of email, a new email message would appear(which you could edit) and it would be directed to the person that was specified on your button properties SUBMIT tab as the SUBMIT TO URL.
Now when I look at my new form at the same button(generated from the original), I can't even locate a SUBMIT tab for the same exact button. What happens when I click it is a pop-up that says it is sending the form to a totally different e-mail address (that I experimented with at some time in the past. When I look at all the event scripts associated with that button, I now see a java script associated with it that refers to this other email. Even when I change this email inside the code, the button still comes up with a pop-up that announces it will be sent to the original address (which I changed in the script).
I tried to creat a brand new "email submit" button using that new object type, but it is still defaulting to that erroneous address and I am not seeing where to change it?
I know there must be some behnd the scenes goings on that I just am not familiar with.......Would this email be stored elsewhere?....have the tabs changed for buttons, but then why can I still see that property on my original form?.......is there a better approach?.......help?!!!
May or not be related.....I also added a print button and that does not function either, but no pop-up or warning there. I did not have one on this form previously.
Thanks in advance!

I discovered George Johnson's post on changing identity at EDIT->PREF->ID->EMAIL ADDRESS which answered one of my questions, but I still not sure about the other behaviours that I mentioned.

Submit Button Issues

I have created a form in InfoPath and am using SharePoint as the method of users entering their inquiries.
Whenever I click the "submit" button, nothing occurs. I have to click it again for the data connections to run. For some reason, the submit button only works when clicked twice.
I am using a standard button with no conditions, so the actions run as soon as the button is clicked.
I have the following actions being run upon click:
1- Submit using a data connection (Main data connection)
2- Switch view to E-mail (a view I created)
3- Submit using a data connection (E-mail)
4- Close this form: no prompt
There are no validation or formatting rules on this button. I am not sure why it has to be clicked twice. Does anybody have any ideas? I have searched google a bit and haven't found much.
Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the submit button only works when clicked twice.
If the form has the rich text box control, you need to go to the rich text box properties | browser forms tab | and change the post back settings to Never.

Windows 7 / Email Submit Buttons Issues

Since Windows 7 has been released, none of my previous forms with Email Submit Buttons work. Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions?

Hi Pete,
you can buy Snow Leopard for about USD 29 but you don't have to install OSX Snow Leopard in order to install the updated BootCamp Drivers from it.
Since the BootCamp Drivers are on a seperate 'partition' on the OSX DVD (better said the OSX DVD is an OSX/Windows-hybrid disc) you can just install the BootCamp Drivers from it.

ADF table submit button issue

Hi,
Im using adf 11g R1. I have a standard crud page.. with a read-only table and a form..
I have a long query on the VO which contains sub-selects
when I edit a record.. then hit the Submit button.. the edited field will obviously update on the table..
however, I have a field/attribute that is a sub-select, when I edit that field in the form and hit the Submit button.. It doesnt update its field on the table.. rather I have to hit the Commit button and refresh the table so that I can view what I change from the table..
ex.
-Name: John
-change to > Name: JohnP
-press submit
-the field is still John on the table
-press commit
-refresh table
-the field is now JohnP on the table
Thanks!

Hi,
the problem is that the form updates the underlying entity, which means that the change is kept local in ADF BC (or whatever persistence layer you use). Since a read only query always hits teh database, it cannot see what hasn't been committed to it. So what you see is what you build, or in other words: works as designed by you. If you like to change this, then you need to use a VO that is based on an entity and that is used for the form and the table

Infopath submit button only works for the first row in a repeating table‏

Hi, I have a InfoPath Email submit button issue I could not figure out. I have a master/detail repeating table in my form, and one of fields is "EmailAddress" which shows customer's email address. I created a submit button and put the "EmailAddress"
field to "TO" object. When I tested it, the submit button only would return the first row of emailaddress from the repeating table, but not the rest of it..
What I want is when I highlighted a customer, and click the submit button, the current customer's email address would show up in "TO" list. I did some research and saw some suggestions about using current() function. So I put current() in the front,
like this:
current()/dfs:dataFields/d:vw_HZLeadLists/@EmailAddress
Still not working..Just return the first record of emailaddress from master repeating table... Does anyone know what's going on here? Thanks a lot!

Hello,
Use double eval to get all rows values. See my reply for more information in below thread:
eval(eval(EmailAddress, 'concat(ToField, ";")'), "..")

Form Alignment issue in table: Custom submit button

Yesterday as I was putting together a "check availability"
form within a horizontal table, I ran into difficulties getting the
form to vertically align in the middle, it kept aligning to the
top. I was able to correct the problem using the following CSS:
<style>
form {
display:inline;
</style>
Now this morning I was switching the generic "submit" button
with a custom gif button using this code within the form:
<input type="image" name="submit" src="image.jpg"
width="110" height="20">
This worked fine, but every part of the form is aligning to
the middle correctly except the custom button which is sticking to
the top. I'm completely lost on how to resolve this issue. If
anyone has any information on how I can fix the button to align
with the rest of the form I would greatly appreciate your help. I
am a beginner at adjusting code.
Thank you so very much!

Hello Ram,

The current forum is for developers. That's why I'd recommend asking non-programming questions in the
Using SharePoint Designer, InfoPath and Other Customizations forum instead.

Submit Button and Email Ady issu

hi all .. i have an issue here.. I would like to insert two
email addresses that pop up your email app, and at the bottom of
message box i have a submit button as well.. i would like that to
goto to an email as well.. I am sucha noob at this its not even
funny. i tried flashvalue email button inflash tut but got nothing
out of it.. Can someone please get me walked through this with the
most basic instructions out there? thanks so much

to bring up the users email program use:
getURL('mail:[email protected]');
but if you're trying to use the 'submit' button to send a
message that was entered into a textfield on your site, you can't
pass info to the program, and you must use the LoadVars class, and
have a server-side script like php, that will process the info pass
in and send the email.

Spry validation issue with submit button

Hi,
I'm new to Spry but am having an issue getting it to work at all. I created a very simply form (i.e. table with Spry text field and submit button). I've read many articles and been to several forums, but I can't seem to find the issue I'm having. Basically, when I go to preview the page in a browser, the table with the Spy text field and submit button comes up fine, but when I hit the submit button, I see the page refresh and any values I had in the text field disappear, but nothing ever comes up saying "A value is required," which is what I'm looking for. This happens even if I don't have any values in the text field. Below are images of what I'm describing and also the code. I verified that the "Required" check box is checked in the SpryTextField and the submit button action is selected to "Submit Form." My setup is Win 7, DW6, & XAMPP. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Before Submit Button pressed:
Browser after button pressed: (same as above but no message saying "A value is required.")
Code:

Do yourself a big favor and don't waste time with Spry Validation. Most modern browsers support HTML5 forms with the required attribute.
If you must placate older browsers, use jQuery validate script. It's lightweight and works when HTML5 support is missing. You can see an example below. If you hit submit with empty form fields, the required fields pop-up with messages. View source in browser to see the code.

Issue with Submit button

Last October, I created a fillabe form via LiveCycle. I distributed the forms and they all worked initially on the receiver's end. The past couple of months, people have been informing me that the "submit" button has disappeared. Why would this happen? Even I have opened the form on my computer and the submit button is not there, even though it states in the purple bar at the top "to submit form by clicking submit".....Any ideas?

Hi,
this is the VBA code we are using.
The below sheet is the report where user manually writes values and then another input form is attached to this report where the entered values get multiplied by 1000 and then this data gets sent to database.
The values entered in the below report does not get submitted to database because, save button is grayed out. Only TIME dimension is active on this report to get the time period.
SUBMIT button is created on the report tab and input schedule is hidden.
Now the below screenshot is the migrated evdre input shedule where data from 1st report gets multiplied by 1000 and then submitted to database.
SUBMIT button is created on the report tab and input schedule is hidden.
On the above lines, we have 2 more reports and 2 more input schedules in the same Input schedule. That is to say, we have 3 report sheets and 3 input sheets in 1 single report.
SUBMIT button is configured on all the three report sheets and input schedule sheets are hidden.
To reiterate the issue again, when we click on submit button the screen flickers and goes through all the reports and when data is submitted the screen appears to the same report from where submit button is clicked.
Please let me know if you need more infromation.
Regards,
Ashwin.
