Hello,
having a tough time getting my form to work fully from the client side. I
am using LiveCycle Designer 8.0 on an existing pdf.
The way the form is supposed to work is when the user enters a dollar amount (i.e. wages) into separate form fields, The amounts are totaled and placed in to a numeric field. I used the FormCalc Event (calculate) to achieve the results.
After the results are placed in the numeric field, I then created a button to transfer the results from the numeic field and attempted to place each number in an individual text field. The code that I used was (javascript):
var toConvert = nfield3[0];
var chars = new String(toConvert.rawValue);
var combFields = xfa.resolveNodes("comb[*]");
for (var i = 0; i < combFields.length; i++) {
combFields.item(i).rawValue = "";
}
if (toConvert.rawValue != null {
for (var i = 0; i < chars.length; i++) {
combFields.item(i).rawValue = chars.charAt;
}
}
The problem that I'm having is that although, The results will calculate correctly in the numeric fields, I cannot get the results to post in the individual fields when the button is clicked.
I read somewhere in the documentation that process and interactive events only work on the server side. Is that correct. Thanks in advance.
