Text Field Overlaying Footer

I'm working on a Dynamic Form and most of my text fields need to be expandable. I have to have a footer on all my pages but my expandable text fields expand overlaying my footer. What can I do so my text field stops at my footer and goes to a new page?

Remove text field from Array via for loop

Hi,
i have a problem to remove text fields added via for loop.
That im doing is, via for loop im dynamically creating menu with 10 buttons.
Each button contain, dynamically created, background (shape) and text field.
And everything is fine.
But when im try to remove text fields then i got this error:
- Im using button to remove text fields - lang_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller.

In the script bellow marked with red is what should remove text fields from an Array, instead giving me error.
Here is my script
// Create for loop
for (var i:int = 0; i < 10; i++)
          for each (xml in listItems)
                    if (i == xml.attribute("Id"))
                              // Add MovieClip to stage to hold the data

                                                  //remove the text field array from the display
                                   removeChild(pushUsTFintoArray[rNr_us]);
                                        //clear the array

                                        pushEgTFintoArray = [];
          btCount++;

it looks like those tf's are children of lmButtonsMCArray[i], not the current scope. use:
if (footer.lang_btn.langState == "EG")
                                        for (var rNr_us:Number = 0; rNr_us < pushUsTFintoArray.length; rNr_us++)
                                                  //remove the text field array from the display
                                    lmButtonsMCArray[rNr_us].removeChild(pushUsTFintoArray[rNr_us]);
                                        //clear the array
                                        pushUsTFintoArray = [];
                              else
                                        for (var rNr_eg:Number = 0; rNr_eg < pushEgTFintoArray.length; rNr_eg++)
                                                  //remove the text field array from the display
                                    lmButtonsMCArray[rNr_eg].removeChild(pushEgTFintoArray[rNr_eg]);
                                        //clear the array

Expanding text field & page numbers

Got a form with an expanding text field. Also have page # of # on the form. When the text field expands to multiple pages, it overlays (?) the page # of #.
Any idea on how I can not have the text field expand to cover it up ??

The colors can be adjusted ....if its blue on your machine that is OK.
Can you share the form with me so I can see what is happening?
Can you send it to [email protected] and I will have a look. Please include a description of the issue in your email.

Text Fields Not Showing in Design or Live View

Hello Everyone,
I have run into a problem trying to create a simple contact form through Dreamweaver CS6. I have two text fields for Name & Email, and 1 text area for Comments. The issue I am running into is that the text fields are not showing in Design or Live view. I have set-up all variables required for the server for the form to work... but that should not have any effect on the text field showing... I tried uploading my contact page with the same result of no text fields showing...
What is really laughable is that the "text area" I placed in my form for Comments shows up in Design & Live view just fine. I am thinking that I am missing something, but just do not know what exactly. The form is styled through CSS.
Here is the form code:
     <div id="CRDForm">
       <form action="http://www.sweetformimi.com/formmail/formmail.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" name="contact" target="_self" id="contact">
    <input type="hidden" name="env_report" value="REMOTE_HOST,REMOTE_ADDR,HTTP_USER_AGENT,AUTH_TYPE,REMOTE_USER">
    <input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="[email protected]" />
    <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Contact Form" />
         <label><p>Your Full Name
           <input name="Name" type="text" id="Name" size="40" /></p>
         </label>
         <label><p>Email
         <input name="email" type="text" accesskey="2" tabindex="2" title="Email" value="Email"></p>
         </label>
         <label>Comments<br />
         <textarea name="comments" cols="40" rows="10" accesskey="3" tabindex="3" title="Comments"></textarea>
         </label>
         <input name="submit" type="submit" accesskey="4" tabindex="4" title="submit" value="submit">
       </form>
    </div>
Are there other variables I should be thinking about in the rest of my site? I am using a fluid grid layout. I have CSS for desktop, tablet, and phone devices. I also have a primary CSS file that imports all three. The sites structure was done by using <header>, <article>, <footer>, and of course <div> tags.
Has anyone ever experienced the "text fields" not showing up before? Is it a simple fix as reinstalling Dreamweaver CS6? Finally, another thing I should mention is that I did have a previous version of Dreamweaver on my comp, which was CS3. I did not uninstall that before installing the newer version. I assumed (and I could be wrong here) that it would automatically replace the older version.
I apoligize for it being long winded, but I am looking for some help on this issue...
Thank You

Hey thank you osgood for the reply!
When I look at code for long hours it sort of blurs together, and I miss things... I think that happens to the most of us
Ya I found what was blocking my text fields in my desktop.css
I primarily work through code view, and currently working on quite a few projects kind of makes your eyes miss the small errors.
Thanks again!

How do I create a form with text fields that can continue to multiple pages with out it over lapping

I have created a form in Livecycle and have made every object a sub field. But I am still having the same probably. The text field only continues on to a second page and overlaps the footer I have created at the bottom of the page. I am new to livecycle and have tried a lot of different things to fix this problem. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I've found this blog http://blogs.uoregon.edu/developments/2010/12/29/pdf-making-text-fields-grow-to-accommodat e-text/ and this example file : flowableTest.pdf? Is it close to what you search? I cannot go deeper into example now, but will.

Linking/Grouping Text Fields with a Check Box Field

Disclaimer: I know nothing about coding/scripting in Acrobat (or in any language, for that matter).
I have 4 sets of text fields, call them A, B, C, and D. All of the fields in set A will have a value entered. There are 10 fields in set A while sets B, C, and D may have as many as 104. Sets B, C, and D will always have a one-to-one-to-one correspondence with each other (B1 is associated with C1 and D1 only and so on). My dilemma/desire is two fold:
First:
I want to be able to group 3 to 4 of the fields in set C if I tick a check box/radio button/whatever field type works. When the fields are grouped, I want their values to be the same within the grouping. These fields should also be ungrouped when the marker field is unchecked/deactivated. No field will ever be in any more than one group.
Second:
I want values for set B to equal a value of set A if there is a value entered in that B's corresponding C field.
Please don't hesitate to point out where I can make any of this clearer.
Thank you in advance,
Joseph
P.S.
If one or both of these is not doable in Acrobat, would you please kindly point me to a program that can do this?

Steve,
Sorry, I referenced InDesign and this file was created in Illustrator. (I have been working with numerous files created in both InDesign and Illustrator, with numerous challenges). I do not have the native document nor Illustrator software, only Acrobat. When I previously loaded the InDesign-created pdf file(s) into Acrobat, I was unable to use the Text TouchUp Tool because I do not have the fonts on my system that were used to create the documents in InDesign, thus I am denied access to the text. With this file, created in Ilustrator; I assume because the text resides within the image created that encompasses the entire page, the Text TounchUp Tool and Object Tool have no response when I click on the page after activating the tools with a click, although the Tool Bar allows me to click on the icons to activate the functions.
I have read elsewhere that InDesign and Illustrator files are exported as images, thus requiring either Photoshop or Illustrator to fully edit outside of the originating software. However, I was hoping that I could create interactive forms by overlaying fields with Live Cycle Designer - I did not anticipate the default setting of the check box labels being unchangeable. Sounds like I am at a dead-end with this issue??

Need to add superscript for text field--HELP NEEDED.

Hi Friends,
Is there any way to implement superscript and subscript text in Crystal? For example, I would like to superscript the portion (1) of the following string:
"Buy(1) or Sell(1)"
The only way I have found to do this is to put the "235" in a separate text field that uses a smaller font size, and overlay it into the gap that I intentionally left in the larger text field. For display and printing purposes, this works OK, but if a report containing these strings is exported to Excel, the text fields are exported as separate cells, which makes the exported report look funny.
I can create this string in Word, then cut and paste it into a text field in Crystal (which initially seems to work), but as soon as I click off the field, all the characters in it are converted to the same font size.
If this can't be done in the current version of Crystal, are there any plans for it to be implemented in future versions?

hello all,
the text interpretation for html or rtf in fields will not render superscript or subscript. the basic rule is that whatever you can format directly in a crystal reports text object, that's what you can have interpreted.
look up "text interpretation html" in kbase for a full list.
one option is to turn html passthrough on the server in question if this is a huge deal for you...if you want instructions on how to turn html passthrough on, they are located in the webelements user guide at
http://diamond.businessobjects.com/node/255
after doing so, you'd drop the database field into a formula and any html in the database field would be interpreted.

How to make a text field wrap to next page

I've done my best to find the solution to my problem before coming here to post, so forgive me if I've missed a previously posted solution.
I am a .NET coder, using iText to manipulate PDF's. I need to create a template for a corporate invoice that will allow me to have header and footer content on a page, surrounding the invoice detail section and have the invoice detail wrap to the next page as necessary.
Criteria: All pages have the invoice header. All pages have the invoice footer with pagination (i.e. Page 1 of n). The number of pages is controlled by the number fo lines in the invoice detail text field.
For example, if the text field holds 30 lines and each line item takes up a single line. An invoice with 25 line items would only use one page. If the invoice has 35 line items, the content in the text area needs to flow to page 2 in the invoice detail area.
I have tried every combination I can dream up in Adobe LiveCycle Designer and I cannot get a document set up that will flow from page 1 to page 2.
For me to be able to access invoice detail field in code, it appears that it needs need to be a Text Field. I've been able to access the fields from my .NET code and fill them in without issue.
What I cannot get is a template that will allow me to put more content in the detail area than fits on page one and have it automatically create a second page and flow the content into the detail area.
Can anyone point me in the right direction, or provide a working sample PDF?
I.e.
PAGE 1:
MY COMPANY
ADDRESS
INVOICE #20
Line item #1
Lilne item #1 detail
Line item #2
Line item #2 detail <from here, detail must flow to the detail section of the next page>
Page 1 of 2
PAGE 2:
MY COMPANY
ADDRESS
INVOICE #20
Line item #3
Lilne item #3 detail
Line item #4
Line item #4 detail
Page 2 of 2

While I appreciate the direction to the samples, that is not resolving my issue. I had already seen the samples before I posted in this forum.
None of the samples have what I've requested assistance with above.
I need a static 3" header, a 5" content area and a 1" footer on every page in a document. I want to be able to put content in the content area and have it wrap to subsequent pages if the content is more than will fit in the area. Each subsequent page must also have the 3" header, 5" content area and 1" footer.
This will not be edited in Acrobat, it will be edited in .NET code without human intervention, so having click buttons to add another row to a table is not an option.
I could create the entire PDF programmatically, but I'm seeking to find if Adobe LiveCycle Designer can make the PDF form in an easy to use GUI.
If the details of my need above do not provide a clear requirement, feel free to point that out.

Text field with autocomplete is always NULL

Greetings,
I am new to Apex so I am sure I am missing something obvious. I am using Apex 4.0.1 What I have done is created a form on a table page and added a new text with autocomplete page item. This new text field does not correspond to a column in the table. What I am trying to do is allow the user to use the autocomplete item to make a selection. Then when the user submits the page, I want to use the substr function on the value in the autocomplete field and populate one of the table fields. I have tried using PL/SQL functions in validations and computations but I have found that the value of the autocomplete field is always NULL. I can access the other fields that are associated with a table column fine. It must be something simple. Thanks for your help.
Page Items
P2_F1 - text field with auto complete. Not associated with a table column
P2_F2 – Text field. Is associate with a table column
This is what I want to do:
Entered this in a validation
begin
if :P2_F1 is not null then
:P2_F2 := substr(:P2_F1,1,5);
end if;
end;Thanks again

hi,
The PL/SQL function can also work when you choose Computation point: After submit.
For reading You can refer APEX documentation

Adding a progress loader to a dynamic text field / scrollPane

I have a dynamic text field which is loading images from an external html. This text is named scrollPaneImage and is a child of a movieClip called scrollPaneContent. I then load scrollPaneContent into a scroll pane named scrollPane
When the user interacts with my swf different images are loaded into scrollPaneImage. Since some of the images take a few seconds to load, I'd like there to be a progress loader displayed in the scrollpane.
I have tried adding the progress event listner to the dynamic text, the movie clip and the scrollpane and cannot get it to respond or track the loading.
scrollPaneContent.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,reportProgress);
function reportProgress(e:ProgressEvent):void {
    trace(e.bytesLoaded + " loaded out of " + e.bytesTotal);
     trace("LOADED");
Can anyone suggest what I might be doing wrong or of another approach?
thanks in advance,
Josh

Is there a behavior that can swap a text field?

I am creating a portfolio page for a client. It currently has a 9 block of thumbs and another area where the thumb images appear enlarged when rolled over. The client would also like to be able to add text beneath the large area telling about each project. Is there a way to change the content in the text field on thumb rollover as well or is my only option to make the text part of the larger image?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi
You could use a simple css rollover similar to -
HTML -
<div class="imagegallery">
<a class="thumbnail" href="#thumb"><img src="../images/rosesthumb.jpg" width="100" height="68" border="0" /><span><img src="../images/roses.jpg" /><br />Simply beautiful.</span></a>
CSS -
.imagegallery{
position: relative;
/*Add a height attribute and set to largest image's height to prevent overlaying*/
.thumbnail img{
border: 1px solid white;
margin: 0 5px 5px 0;
.thumbnail:hover{
background-color: transparent;
.thumbnail:hover img{
border: 1px solid blue;
.thumbnail span{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
position: absolute;
background-color: lightyellow;
padding: 5px;
left: -1000px;
border: 1px dashed gray;
visibility: hidden;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
.thumbnail span img{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
border-width: 0;
padding: 2px;
.thumbnail:hover span{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
visibility: visible;
top: 0;
left: 230px; /*position where enlarged image should offset horizontally */
z-index: 50;
Replace the items in red with your values.
If this is not the effect you wish, can you explain a little more.

Clearing text field

Hi,
I have a page where you scan a barcode into a text field submits when enter pressed. If the barcode exists a report appears showing that record. The barcode must stay in the text field.
My question is if I scan a barcode and the barcode does not exist and then I scan another barcode, the previous barcode stays and gets appended onto the new barcode. How do I clear the barcode data out of the text field when I scan in a new barcode?

Hi,
Add something like the following into the report region's Region Footer setting:
<script type="text/javascript">
if (#ROWS_FETCHED# == 0)
$x("P36_BARCODE").value = "";
</script>Replacing P36_BARCODE with the actual name of the barcode field.
#ROWS_FETCHED# is populated with the number of rows fetched on the page for the report. If this is 0 (zero), then the script will run, and the field will be cleared.

How to provide text formatting options to user from a text field

Hi,
My requirement is - in the interactive form, a comments field needs to be provided where user should be able to enter text with formatting options like
Headers
indentations
bold/italic
bullet points and numbers
Once user enters the formatted texts in a text field, data needs to be displayed/printed in the same format. Could you help me on how to provide these formatting options to the user for a particular text field?
I understand that once I define the text field with format XHTML (with RTF), user formatting can be captured and displayed in the same way. But I am not sure on how to provide the formatting options for the text field.
Thank you,
Madhu

Hi,
if you select a text field for Rich Text and the press Ctrl + E you'll get a bar for all available text formatting options in Acrobat/Reader.

Wrap a single word in a text field

Hello everyone!
I currently have a problem with text data that is displayed in a Flex text field <mx:Text>.
It's a narrow textfield (100px wide) in a animated ad banner that displays content from a database. There are some words that are too long for the available space, so flash wraps some letters to the next line. I have attached a screenshot that shows the actual problem.
The text is shown in a Java web-application as well, and since that Java app is displayed as a normale webpage, there is a lot more space for the text. I cannot put hyphens into the text because it would look weird in the normal web view.
Is there a way to make automatic hyphenation happening when Flash wraps a single word?
It would be perfect to get language-specific correct hyphenation, but a hyphen at the wrong spot is still better than no hyphen at all.
Thanks for your time and help!

I think your simplest bet would be to use mx:label and use the op
tion truncateToFit="true". Also adjust the width so that the text appears prope
rly. Hope this helps..!!
