Adobe Experience Manager Forms

I'm having an issue with checking if any the instances of a field within a table are empty. If any are empty I need a message box to appear. There's one header row and one body row with several text fields. The body row is set to repeat and there are buttons to add and remove body rows.I have had success in checking if any fields are empty in the initial row by using the following code:if ((this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField1").rawValue == null || this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField1").rawValue == "") || (this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField2").rawValue == null || this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField2").rawValue == "") || (this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField3").rawValue == null || this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField3").rawValue == "") || (this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField4").rawValue == null || this.resolveNode("Page1.Table1.Row3.TextField4").rawValue == "")) {xfa.host.messageBox("Please complete the Evaluation/Impl

Hi -I have created a multi-field pdf form that includes a button that generates an email.  The email body contains content of specified fields.  All this is working fine.  The issue is that in one of the fields, a network path is entered.  When the email is generated that information is included in the body of the email and often the resulting link is broken, because the path often contains spaces in the path name.  It seems that i can fix this issue if the empty spaces in the path are replaced by %, for example, prior to having users generate the email.How do I create a javascript event that looks at the raw value of the field where the network path is stored and replace any blank spaces with a % sign?Thank you so much in advance for your help!!!!

!I have created several PDF Forms for our technicians at our company using LiveCycle Designer. For some reason, when our administrative personnel open some of the files, they get the error above.This is critical for our business. Can someone please help?

I have a script that "walks" through all the records in an Access database table to find the largest file ID number. This script has been working correctly. Now I need to add a prefix to all the ID numbers. This requires me to modify my script so it ignores the one character prefix (prefix is either a "T" or a "Y"). I was trying to use the Substr function to accomplish this.This is the original script that works:while(!oDB.isEOF()){ if(xfa.record.DataConnection1.FileName.value > nMaxID)  nMaxID = Number(xfa.record.DataConnection1.FileName.value); oDB.next();}Below is how I tried to modify the script above to ignore the prefix but I get an error that says Substr is not defined. What have I got wrong?while(!oDB.isEOF()){ if(xfa.record.DataConnection1.FileName.value > nMaxID)  nMaxID = Number(Substr(xfa.record.DataConnection1.FileName.value,2,12); oDB.next();}

Dear all,We try to hide only the caption of a field if the field content is empty. a) The following code will hide the entire raw (entire field including caption). What should we change to the code to only hide the caption?-------------------------------------------------------if(this.rawValue == null){  this.presence ="hidden"}-------------------------------------------------------b) Another option would be to use conditional formatting -> change caption text to white colored text,  if the field content is empty to make it invisible on the printout.Is there any options in ALD available or which code should be used to realize one of the above options?Thank you in advance!Kind regards,Roy

Hello, I am new to Adobe LiveCycle Designer. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro X installed and it comes with LiveCycle Designer ES2. My question is that I created a fillable form in LiveCycle Designer and posted to the web. I then founded out that my PDF form can be opendded in IE 11 when clicking on the form link, but got error when opening in Safari, Firefox and Chrome. I did some search and got to know that LiveCycle Designer form is not compatible with the built-in PDF viewers in certain browsers. End users will have to change their browser settings, which I don't like.I also noticed that the federal government’s PDF forms are also created in LiveCycle Designer when you download and see its ‘File Properties’,  those PDF forms can be opened in all browsers, like Safari, Firefox, Chrome, does anybody know how could they do that? Anything I should do with my form so it can be opened in all browsers ? Below are the PDF forms on IRS and USCIS websites:http://www.irs.gov/Forms-&-Pubshttp://ww

I have a requisition form that consists of three major sections - a header, a details table, and a footer. The details table must be able to expand to fit, which means the form must be able to flow onto a second page. All the fields in the header must repeat on the second page. The footer should only appear at the bottom of the details table, once, not repeated on every page.After much tinkering with flowed and positioned subforms, I've got this working with the details table inside a flowed subform, with a positioned subform within the header and footer rows of the table. I suspect this is not the 'correct' way, but it's the only way I've been able to get working. So my header happily repeats on the second page, but the values typed into the fields in the first page header do not show up on the second page. The user must be able to edit the header on any page and have all the pages headers update. Can anyone please point me to a tutorial or give me an idea of what code would achieve t

I'm trying to put a couple of line breaks in between strMessage2 and strMessage3 in the automatic e-mail button in the following document.  What am I missing?  Thanks!https://acrobat.com/#d=hSatmYfM4gqdX1cb-XRVMgWin 7, LC ES2 9.0

I have created a dynamic form in LiveCycle ES Designer. It has a dynamic table and a dynamic text field. The table has a single row with 6 cells. Inside of each cell I have created sub forms and then placed various boxes (text, drop downs, etc). I have created an add and remove button to replicate the table if another one is needed.In my table in the first cell I have a drop down field currently that goes from 1 to 75. When you click on the add row button and it replicates another row I would like for it to auto populate the field to indicate #2, #3, so on and so on as you add table rows. I realize that it can not be a drop down field and will most probably have to be a text or number field. What I do not know however is the java that will tell it to generate the next sequencial number when I add a new row. Can anyone help or point me in the right direction to find my answer? Thanks,Shane

How can add page numbers to my 10 page document I justcreated? Is there a way for me to add page numbers in the footer like you can in MicroSoft Word? The problem is, I already have created my form & can't re-arrange it any. If I could manually type the page number in that would be fine to...I just need it to be in the footer area..Can someone help?

Hi all -I've got an expanding table (rows can be added) and I'm trying to use the footer row of the column to compute the average of cells that don't have a value of 0.Form Calc is usually great, but in this instance, I need to divide the sum by the number of cells that are not zero and I'm not sure how to do that via Form Calc.Successfully used javascript to both identify the total number of instances and identify the number of instances that are zero, so the denominator part of the equation is fine. (# of instances - # of zeros = denominator.)Now it's just the numerator. It's got to be a loop, right? Table is called: table1Row is called: datacell is called: eValueAny thoughts? Or more efficient methods? Thanks so much.B

We recently purchased a second copy of LiveCycle so that I can aid in form development. I had a 60-day trial installed awhile ago (that has since been uninstalled) and everything worked fine. I could edit PDFs and then preview them right inside LiveCycle.So a few months since the trial go by and now we decide to actually purchase it. I get it installed and open up a form to get to work - then I notice the PDF Preview tab is gone and in the "View" menu, it is grayed out. F5 also does not work.So, after scouring the Internet, here's what I've tried so far that didn't do anything:Make sure Display PDF in Browser is checked. I don't have this option in Arobat Pro XI, but I installed Reader X and it was there and checked.Installed Acrobat before LiveCycle. Tried it, didn't work.Make sure the Adobe PDF Viewer is enabled in Internet Explorer. Done, was enabled when I checked.Reinstall all products. Uninstalled Acrobat XI, LiveCycle, and Reader. Reinstalled Acrobat XI, then LiveCycle. No luck.

Hello Adobe Forum,I'm an SAP user and am creating an Adobe form (my first). I posted this in an SAP forum, but have yet to receive any feedback whatsoever so I thought it may be better to go to the Adobe experts themselves. I've run into an Adobe issue and am just spinning and spinning trying different techniques to make it work. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.In my content area I have three subforms. The first subform is positioned, the fields have to be placed correctly. The second subform is fundamentally a table header for the third subform, which is the rows of the data. All three subforms are wrapped in another subform that is flowed.Why would I do it like this? Well, the table in the third subform has control levels so it merges like rows nicely in this way when the first column rows are the same...Source image file 4466 not availableSo the first page of my document would look like this...which is what I want. Source image file 4467 not availableH is repeated for every p

I'm new to Live Cycle Designer and trying to create a form where you can select a name of an image from a drop down list and that image will appear on the page to be printed.  The images would vary in size if that matters.I copy and pasted code using Microsoft Front Page and it works but not sure how to convert it to a .pdf.   Maybe it isn't even possible as I'm wondering where the images would reside??Here's my Front Page code:<html><head> <script type='text/javascript'>window.onload=function(){function setImage() {    var img = document.getElementById("image");    img.src = this.value;    return false;}document.getElementById("ImageList").onchange = setImage;}</script></head><body>  <select id="ImageList">     <option value="images/transimage.gif">Select Image</option>    <option value="images/image1.gif"> Image 1</option>    <option value="images/image2.jpg"> Image 2</option></select>    <p>&lt

I am doing a dynamic form which has drop down rows (click the + button, then a new row will be created, so the user can have as many rows they prefer, then there is a footer with E-signature in it (hopefully the footer can be shown at the last bottom page only) ). My issue now: So when I have 2 pages of forms in total, the bottom of the first and second page will both have the footer (Signature). However, if there are 3 pages of form in total: the bottom of the first and third page will both have the footer (Signature), but not the second page. What I want: How can I ONLY have the footer (signature) at the bottom of the last page, not on the first page, no matter how many rows and pages the user created  ? I can screen shot the form if needed. Please help. Many thanks

Hi,I'm used to Acrobat Pro but new to LiveCycle. I need to hide several pages on a form until a user activates a checkbox. ie/  user clicks on "[x] category one" and the page that contains category one content appears. If the user deselects the checkbox, the page is hidden. ie/ user clears [ ] category one and the page with the content disappears from the user's screen.\i think it's called 'reveal page' but am not sure. Can someone point me in the right direction, please?Thanks!
