I am creating a PDF (Adobe Dynamic XML Form) using LiveCycle Designer ES2 that I will upload into my organization's web-based Electronic Health Records (EHR) software for use by our staff. I have been using Adobe Acrobat Pro to design forms, however I need to use LiveCycle Designer for the current form I am building.
I cannot figure out how to recreate the custom Save button that works in Acrobat-created forms, in LiveCycle. In other words, I simply need to copy a button from an Acrobat form into the LiveCycle form I am building.
As shown in the Acrobat screen shot above, the Save Form button runs a javascript when clicked. The javascript is:
var b = this.getField("p_url");
this.submitForm({
cURL: b.value,
bEmpty: true,
cSubmitAs: "HTML"});
To clarify, the above javascript works fine. Also, the "p_url" is a variable because the vendor sometimes changes the url, so it pulls the value from the hidden field labeled p_url (seen in the top-left corner of the screen shot above). The current working url is: https://apps.welligent.com/welligent/!pdf_util.process_eform_data?p_tablet_record_id=
I seem to be unable to recreate this button in LiveCycle. I have tried creating a button and playing around with the three types (Regular, Execute, and Submit) and popping in the url mentioned above in seemingly appropriate places. I have also tried creating a script object with the javascript function above and creating an action using the Action Builder where clicking the Save button calls the function.
I hope I have included enough information, and I appreciate any help someone can offer! This form will help make a lot of people's lives easier over here.

I'm not great on LC by any means but this looks to me like you could use the HTTP Submit Button and then use that URL that you've listed.
