What is it called when a field box only generates when another field box has text entered?
Hi:
I am using LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and am in the process of creating a form. I want to create a field that only will generate if a previous field has text in it. Kinda like: if this is entered, then this will happen. Any thoughts?
Hi,
There is a lot of potential for creating dynamic forms with LC. The help file in LC and the guides on the Adobe web site give a lot of direction.
In your first field you can write javascript against an event, in this case the exit event is probably best:
if (this.rawValue == "" || this.rawValue == null) // this is a test if the first field is empty
textField2.presence = "invisible";
else
textField2.presence = "visible";
When testing you use double "=="; when assigning values you use a single "=". TextField2 is there, just hidden from the user.
Good luck,
Niall

I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
Thanks!After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList. Changing it to List resolved the problem.
I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid. And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger. Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me. -
Fill in fields based on response in another field.
Is there a way to use one field to automatically fill in another field? For example, I have two fields (Project Name & Project Address). Project Name is a pull down menu. Can I have Project Address automatically fill in based on their choice of Project Name?
Thanks,

Check box only visible when data is entered in two other fields
My form has a table in which one column's cells are check boxes. I would like the check boxes to be only visible when both the quantity and unit price cells are filled out.
If I use the following script to hide the checkbox, it becomes my Amount??? which is the column right next to it.
taxable.presence = "hidden";
I am putting the script in the initialize event of the table.The initialize event only fires once the form is opend, not afterwards when the fields values are changed.
You need another event such as layoutReady.
this.presence = !Quantity.isNull && !UnitPrice.isNull ? "visible" : "hidden"; -

How to set field checkbox values based on another field
I'm trying to provide the user with the ability to check one box "Check All" which would then set the check boxes for a section to the same value as shown in the example. Anyone know how I can accomplish this?
Thank you.
Example
General Category A [ ] Check All
[ ] Item 1
[ ] Item 2
[ ] Item 3
[ ] Item 4
If user selects "Check All", all the Items in the list for "General Category A" are then checked automatically.You can create a document level function to check a series of check fiels as long as they all have the same checked value.
// document level function that can be used for many sections
function CheckAll(aFields, sChecked) {
// test to see Check All box for being checked
// and if checked set to aFields to checked value
// otherwise clear fields
if(this.getField(event.target.name).value == 'Off') {
// field unchecked
this.resetForm(aFields); // clear the fields
// end box not checked
} else {
// check all box has been checked
// loop through the fields to check
for (i = 0; i < aFields.length; i++) {
// all fields are assumed to have a value of 'Yes' when selected
var f = this.getField(aFields[i]); // get field for element i
f.value = sChecked; // set to checked value
} // end loop to check
// end checked
} // end unchecked
} // end CheckAll function
// end document level function
You can then add a mouse up aciton for the check all check box:
// mouse up action for check all check box
// define array of check box fields to process
var aSecFields = new Array('Item 1', 'Item 2', 'Item 3', 'Item 4');
// call CheckAll function
// passing the array list of field names and checked value
CheckAll(aSecFields, 'Yes');
or you can use 1 line of executable code:
// mouse up action for check all check box
// call CheckAll function
// passing the array list of field names and checked value
CheckAll(['Item 1', 'Item 2', 'Item 3', 'Item 4'], 'Yes'); -
Change value in a field and reflect value of another field
Hi all,
I have a situation here where in the Single Customer View, under the Completed Task. When I changed the value of a field name called Status to "Completed" in the Edit screen and I save it, another field that is in the same screen called "Completed Date" will auto populate the current date as value. may I know how do I achieve this?
Thanks and appreciate for help
Regards,
AnsonHi !
You've got to create a workflow rule on Activity with the event trigger Before modified record saved.
The condition will be like this :
*[<Status>]=LookupValue("EVENT_STATUS", "Completed") AND [<Status>]<>PRE('<Status>')*
Then the action of this rule will update the field *"Completed Date"* with the value Today().
But you don't have to do it for the completed date field, because it's already filled automatically when you change the status to completed.
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

10.1.3--Disable a field according to values of another field.
Hi,
I am trying to set a filed on the JSP to be disalbed according to values of another field.
eg. When the value in "ID" field is NOT 10 or 20, the "Bill" field should be disabled.
I have tried using only one condition which is when "ID" != 10 or "ID" != 20. They work fine. But when I try to combine two conditions together using "&&" sign, I got a syntax error. The JSP does not display at all. I asked an expert about it, the answer is:
#{(bindings.Deptno.inputValue.value !=10) &&(bindings.Comm.inputValue.value > 1000)}. I tried this on my application and got the same syntax error.
Has anybody had a similar situation? Any idea what could be wrong? Thanks in advance.
AnnieHi bsalvador,
I've had a simular situation once where I needed to make items disabled or required depending on a workflow step and on depending on other page items. Basically the disabling of items is done by javscript, keep in mind that readonly is not the same as disabled. When you use readonly, the item can still be manipulated with javascript. When you disable an item, the item is not even submitted to the database, so you have to make sure that your submit process can hadle that.
There are two different situations:
First you have the page load / page submit, there you can use PL/SQL to check which items should be submitted, hand them a javascript class or make them readonly/disabled straight away.
Second you have a situation where you want to disable certain items depending on the value of other items. This is done 'on the fly' and should be handled with a javascript function.
Keep in mind however that javascript runs client side and isn't a secure way to handle data integrity, so you would need a database process to validate which items need to be submitted as well.

Using Javascript to show/unshow a field based on input in another field
I want to display/not display a field in a JSP depending on what is selected in another field.
I am using <div></div> element currently which is displayed/not displayed using a Javascript invoked by the first field.
the problem with div is that I have to put it inside a <tr><td> otherwise it doesn't work. This makes the field look aloof from the rest of the page, and is also not aligned with the other fields.
Is there anything other than <div> that can be used? or is there a way to correct the look of the field inside a div?
ThanksYou shouldn't have to put it inside a <tr><td> to get it to work. I've done what you are trying to do with <span></span> and it worked fine. I haven't tried it with a <div> but I can't image why that wouldn't work. Maybe you could post your code.

How to display f4 help for a field based on value of another field
Hello All,
I have 4 fields : Sales Org : VBAK-VKORG, Distrib Channel : RV50A-VTWEG, Div : RV50A-SPART, Sold-to-party : KUAGV-KUNNR.
The second field depends on the first one, the third on the second one and the fourth on the first field.
However, when each of the second third and fourth fields' f4 help is displayed, the values are independent of the previous fields. How do I set the f4 help to display values based on the respective fields?

Automatically fill in field from first letter of another field
Hi,
I have a situation where i would like to fill in a field automatically, dependant on the first letter entered in another field.
Here's some examples:
1. Field one - A6805B Field two - 'UHF' (As A = UHF)
2. Field one - E1234C Feild two - 'VHF' (As E = VHF)
3. Field one - S5673D Field two - 'Error - No Frequency' (As S doesn't have an equivalent)
Can anyone help?
Cheers
RobHi Rob,
You can do this by assigning the first letter to a variable and then testing that variable.
A sample is here: https://acrobat.com/#d=OoLUPLu1Qy1*8Uxz7*hG6Q
Hope that helps,

I do not want them named the same as I don't want the second one appearing until after it is entered into the first field.
Hi,
If the form fields have the same name then the data entered in one field will be auto populated in other with the same name. For example, if there is a form field named custom field 1 in one document and there is another field with the same name(custom field 1) in the other document and you upload them together into a single transaction and send the document, then the data entered in custom field 1 in one document will be auto populated in custom field 1 of other document as well. This also applies for one document only as well.
Does this help? -
Populate field based on selection from another field?
I'm using a Data Connection with a SQL query that returns two fields (StNameFull and ADDRKEY). I have a drop-down list called "Address" with the list items dynamically bound to StNameFull, so the user can select the address.
What I'm trying to do is populate the second field "Key" with the corresponding record, based on the selection made from the drop-down list.
Is it possible to script this so that when the Address is selected the Key will automatically fill in with the key that matches the address selcted?
I currently have "Key" as a text field bound to ADDRKEY, but not sure how to have it check what was selected in "Address"
Thanks so much,
- KevinYes it is possible but you will have to write some script to do it. You wil also have to ge the DataConenction to execute a SQL statement. There is a good blog on this topic at this location:

How do I validate one field's length based on another field's selection?
I am creating a form for our offices where I need to check one field for length of a serial number based on the answer to a previous field's selection. Depending on the product selection, the serial number has two different lengths. Both fields are marked as required, but I want to make sure that we receive the full serial number for our product. Previous forms were done on paper and instructions were for the last 4 digits only which now we want the full serial number. One product has a 12 digit number and the other is 6.
I'm guessing that I need a validation script in the serial number field, but I am not a JavaScript coder and haven't found the right thing when searching. Any help would be great!
Thanks!Never trust your users to follow what you expect them to do... That often leads to mistakes and problems later on.
I would reset the s/n field when a selection is made in the drop-down. To do so set the drop-down field to commit the selected value immediately and add code as its custom validation script:
this.getField("Serial Number").value = "";
To validate the s/n field you can use something like this as that field's custom validation script (of course, you'll need to adjust the field names and values to match the actual ones in your file):
event.rc = true;
if (event.value) {
var selection = this.getField("Dropdown1").valueAsString;
if (selection=="1" && event.value.length!=6) {
app.alert("Error! The s/n must be 6 digits long.");
event.rc = false;
if (selection=="2" && event.value.length!=12) {
app.alert("Error! The s/n must be 12 digits long.");
event.rc = false;
