i'm using form server and try to run some server-side scripting. For test purposes i simpy want to add an item to a list box using Javascript. Script is triggered with click-event of simple button. In Documentation it is mentioned e.g. that a click event triggers server side srcipt execution. Furthermore it is mentioned that Form Server merges the result with Form on client automatically.
What are you doing on the server side? I think you should just be doing a processFormSubmission() and then returning the output content to the browser.
is this processFormSubmission() an option for JavaScript? Do you have an example, even if it is in Java? Or maybe a hind where i can find mor information about that topic?
The problem is that the Form Developer of my company shouldn't have to code in Java. So i test wether it fits the conditions.
LiveCycle Forms is a server side J2EE application that provides an API for dynamically rendering PDF's and processing them after submission among other things.
If you don't have LC Forms, you can't run server side scripts in the PDF since there is no server component.
Thanks for your response. One more question, do you know whether LC Designer supports connecting to a Postgress db, and if so, any tips on getting it to connect?
