Suggestions: Mulitple Check Boxes in form

Hi there.
CS3, php & mySql.
I'm busy doing a form for a real estate agent where they can
add
properties up for sale.
My dilemma is that some fields have a possibility of up to 7
checks for
one question. the problem is that DW only recognises the last
checkbox
and not all.
How would you have done this? I will really appreciate some
help.
You can take a look at the form at:

Thank you so long.

Gary, thanx for your help & time.
I'll try again to explain ...
Question:
The maid is available on:
Answer: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
Saturday, Sunday.
The person then selects the appropriate days; example:
Monday, Tuesday, Friday. (More than 1 answer.)
How is this done? With the [], all that goes into the
database, is Array
and without, only the last selected day.
I'm sure it must be doable?
Thanx again.

Hope this helps.

I am new to using flash and need to know how to add check boxes and forms

I have been going mad trying to figure this out as well as searching until exhaustion.
So I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Okay here is what I am trying to accomplish.
I have laid out my design as a psd and brought it into adobe flash pro cs5.
I have menu items such as toppings that I want to put check boxes next to each and then once someone goes thru the page and places their choices,I want to be either be emailed what they have chosen from the form... This seems like it might be the easier of the ways to capture data, Or if there is a better way in flash to capture this data, I would take that as well.
SO here is as far as I can get.
Imported the psd and added one checkbox in front of the first item and labeled it strawberries. Now I really don't want the word strawberries to show up at all on the page,just the checkbox. But I am not sure if the label for the checkbox actually passes on the value of the checkbox.
I admit I am lost.
I did also slice and export this same image into dreamweaver and then I made a separate apDiv for each checkbox, and added into a form. It emails the results,but it is not outputting it in a very readable way.
Oh I also brought this int Flash Catalyst and added the checkboxes, but I don't know where to go from there.
So if anyone can let me know the proper way to do this or point me to some videos or tutorials or even a sample file that I can alter....
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks

Check box & PHP form in AS2

Hi all,
I'm currently using this PHP script below for a form in a flash site.
http://www.flashadvisor.com/tutorial/Beginners/Custom_PHP_Email_Form-5.html
I wanted to add either a check box or radial box for an RSVP form that I'm creating where the person can check something like "are you attending, yes or no". How can I modify the script above to include that?
Thanks

you'll need to extract the data from your checkbox (use the selected property), assign it to a _level0 variable and add code to the php file to parse that variable.
but what you should do is look for a tutorial the uses loadvars to send and receive data to and from php.

Can't use LOV with item type "check box" in form

I have created a LOV that I want to use with a form application in 3.0.9. I need to be able to do multiple choices in this LOV (check box style) in the same query (only queries - users won't be able to update this field)
When I choose Check box as the item type in the form wizard I am not able to choose the LOV. I have to use combo box, popup or radio group for the LOV choices to appear, but then the query can only query for one value in the LOV at a time.
Is there a solution to this?

Hi,
This feature is not supported as of now. You cannot have multi select LOV for a form field and hence a checkbox cannot have a LOV.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Crystal Reports - check boxes on forms

Does anyone know if it is possible to embed check boxes ( ticked or crossed based on True / False values) in Crystal Reports?
I have a large number of forms to develop which use Yes / No values in UDF's and I want to display tick or cross in check boxes based on these values!
Thanks

Somewhat 1 year ago I issued a iTar on that,
is a known bug that is apparently not worsewhile to fix.

I have a requirement to create a new check box in AP form using form personalization.

Pl see ML Doc 420518.1(Limitations of Forms Personalization) for a list of things you cannot do with personalization - among them is creating new form objects such as checkboxes.

Mandatory check box before form submission

I want users to accept my 'Terms & Conditions' statement on an application form before they are allowed to submit it by the e-mail button.
I want to place a required check box which produces an error message and prevents form submission until it is checked.
I have read hordes of the postings but none of the solutions seem to do quite what I want.
Any advice would be gratefully received

Hi,
I used the script you provided in the above post, and it worked perfectly, but my situation is a little different: I have two checkboxes, but I only want the message to appear if one of them isn't selected. If the other checkbox is selected, I need the fake submit button to go ahead and generate the email to send the form. I'm new to LiveCycle Designer, and I'm unsure of how to correctly use the "if" and "else" javascript. I need the message to appear when clicking the WebExYes checkbox, but I don't want it to appear when the user clicks the IntercallCheckBox.
Here's what my script looks like so far:
if
(form1.subForm1.WebEx.WebExYes.rawValue != "1"){ xfa.host.messageBox("You must read the FHEG WebEx Usage Standards and select the Yes checkbox before submitting.");
else
{ SubmitButton.execEvent("click");
if
(form1.subForm1.AccountRequest.IntercallCheckBox.rawValue != "1")
else
{SubmitButton.execEvent ("click");
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong or if I can even make this happen?
Thank you,
Hannah

Creating check boxes in form

How is this done in LifeCycle? I am unable to get them to work??
I am using Adobe Professional and creating the lifecycle form in there.
Thanks!!

No need to drag it down. On the left hand side, in the Hierarchy, try to arrange the checkbox items in the order you want.
The one that is in the top will be displayed first. This will be effective and will not disturb other objects when we want to rearrange objects.

Uncheck a "Checked Box on Form"

I need to uncheck a form field? Can someone explain to me how
I do this?
Thanks

Make sure you have created a checkbox and not a radio button.
Radio buttons are "either or" and can not be unchecked.

Can you grey out/lock a certain part of a form you created after a check box has been selected?

In Acrobat Pro 9 can I set up the form that I created to allow customers to select a check box and after they have selected the check box, the form will grey out/lock all of the information that they don't need to fill out and keep the rest of the information that needs to be filled out open?

You can do this through scripting (if you are a JavaScripter). Check out this article by Thom Parker on Conditional Execution: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/conditional-execution

There were problems with IE9 on it's initial release and that may be what you are seeing if that is the browser (you did not indicate the browser and that may be a key). If you have a different browser you might try that one with the same pages to see if it browser related.
By saying garbled it sounds like the fonts did not make it or you have selected "Use Local Fonts" in Acrobat. Try checking the latter first. Then check if the fonts are embedded in the PDF by checking the document properties (ctrl-D). If they are not, go back to the browser and select the press or print job options before printing and see if they get embedded and if your problem is resolved.

Exporting PDF from InDesign with check boxes & name fields

We are a high production print shop and do most of our proofing via PDF. We email the customer a PDF and they print it out, show it to their customer, mark changes, and fax it back to us. We'd like to start letting the customers email their proofs back to us with a check box marked for either OK or Changes Needed, as well as a place for a name and date.
It appears that InDesign will not do this natively. I can make Acrobat do this, no problem. What I tried to do was to take a PDF of the "Proof OK" box with the check boxes and form fields and drop it into InDesign in hopes that the embedded PDF would hold it's interactive capabilities. It does not.
Is there a way to make this work like I need without a bunch of scripting in a language I don't know well? Taking the hundred or so proofs each day and manually making them interactive PDFs is not really an option for obvious time reasons.
Thanks,
Mike

This can't be done in ID, but I'd bet they can help you on the Acrobat Scripting forum. It shouldn't be too hard to do a script that only adds approval checkboxes and sets the document for commenting.
