Hi,



We are getting an issue when submitting a pdf form where the fields and values are all concatentated and sent as one variable. It is impossible to parse this.



While looking for a form i came across this blog entry and his test does the same thing!

e.g Raw POST Body



96 bytes:



TextField1=test1TextField2=tet2RichTextField=test%20multiLis

tBox1=Second%20ItemRadioButtonList=1



Any ideas?

Wow what an overwhelming response, i guess adobe only answer such basic questions if you cough up the cash for a support contract. Either that or the fact even though their own bloggers can't get it to work says to me it's just a broken product. Weak sauce.

So it looks like this is a bug in acrobat 8, as it works fine in acrobat 7.

For what it's worth, I'm having the same problem. Like you said, the POST data is impossible to parse! If I can't get this resolved quickly, I'm going to have to re-create two very complex forms in HTML.



PDF is a nightmare.
