Email Submit button to one external address

[deanr91271723]

When I add an email Submit Button it only comes to me as the creator of the form.

I would like it to go to another external Sales email address only.

I have looked on line and have found some other scripts but they don't do exactly what I am looking for.

Script I have used goes to an external but also to me along with providing additional inputs.

I have tried to remove the additional inputs but then the script doesn't work.

Help on this issue would be appreciated.

Again, what you describe sounds like you are running this in Reader and not in Acrobat. Most of these error messages are about a validation event. I would recommend that you post a different question about these errors, they don't seem to have anything to do with your original email submission problem. This way, you may get some new eyes on your problem.

this is what I see when I Ctrl-J

Is this before or after you try to submit via email?

[deanr91271723]

This is what I see after pushing the Submit button several time.

TypeError: xfa.resolveNode("ClientEmail") is null

7:XFA:form1[0]:Data[0]:Button1[0]:click

TypeError: xfa.resolveNode("ClientEmail") is null

7:XFA:form1[0]:Data[0]:Button1[0]:click

TypeError: xfa.resolveNode("ClientEmail") is null

7:XFA:form1[0]:Data[0]:Button1[0]:click

This is what the Script looks like (email name changed):

// This is the form return e-mail. Its hardcoded

// so that the form is always returned to the same address

// Change address on your form

var cToAddr  = "sales123@123.com";

// First, get the client CC e-mail address

var cCCAddr = xfa.resolveNode("ClientEmail").rawValue;

1. console.println("Client: " + cCCAddr);

// Now get the beneficiary e-mail only if it is filled out

var cBenAddr = xfa.resolveNode("BennyEmail").rawValue;

1. console.println("Benny: " + cBenAddr);

if(cBenAddr != "")

    cCCAddr += ";" + cBenAddr;

// Set the subject and body text for the e-mail message

var pn = xfa.resolveNode("polisnummer").rawValue;

var cSubLine = "Form X-1 returned from client " + pn;

var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your form.\nSave the mail attachment for your own records";

// Send the form data as an PDF attachment on an e-mail

1. event.target.mailDoc({

      bUI: false,

      cTo: cToAddr,

      cCc: cCCAddr,

      cSubject: cSubLine,

      cMsg: cBody,

  });

This again is a problem that has nothing to do with the original question.

I wish I could spend more time on your problem, but I am in the midst of

racing agains a deadline. Your chances of getting somebody else to chime in

are much higher if you post a new question.

I believe the error in regards to the email is the only issue at hand but I do appreciate your time & help.

You have been very helpful

This error message indicates that the script has a problem getting the value of the field ClientEmail - this is not related to your overall email issue you had when you started this question.

Dean,

As I mentioned before, the error message points to the resolveNode() call returning null because it cannot find the field name you've specified. In XFA forms, it's important that you know where your fields are, relative to where you want to use them.

I would suggest that you let Designer figure out how it can "get to" the field in question. You can do this by using the following approach.

The line that is not working is as follows:

var cCCAddr = xfa.resolveNode("ClientEmail").rawValue;

Remove the "xfa.resolveNode("...") from the code and then place your cursor right before the ".rawValue;". Now hold down the Ctrl key and click on the "ClientEmail" field in the design view. Based on the form you're provided, Designer will change this line to

var cCCAddr = WindowInformation.ClientEmail.rawValue;

Do this will all the field references that are causing you problems. There are different ways you can get a reference to a field in an XFA form - xfa.resolveNode is one way, but for simple names, you can just use the field name (unless it contains special characters, or starts with a digit) - and this is what Designer does in this case.

Karl,

Thank you for that response.

I was able to work through each line and finally make it function correctly.
