Hi All,
I was able to invoke SOAP webservice from pdf but unable to invoke Restfull Webservice.
let me know if anybody have used this earlier.

And also Is there any difference between the JavaScript used in normal HTML and in PDF ?

Thanks

Ali

Hi Ali,

You can do GET, PUT and POST using FormCalc, so you can access a Google Calendar or a RSS feed. 

There is a example of accessing a RSS feed in this thread, http://forums.adobe.com/message/5695433#5695433

Hi,

Glad I could help.  Though, I don't know much about gateways and proxies.  I am not aware of any way of providing credentials to a proxy.  The only problem I have had (since Reader 9.0) is with a site that only allowed Internet Explorer, I think Reader must have appeared as a different browser to a proxy.

Versions of Reader before 9.0 didn't handle proxies at all well, but since then it just seemed to work.

Hi Ali,

Sorry, another one I know almost nothing about.  We have a 3rd party host our forms all I do is send an email.

Can only suggest starting a new thread.
