Need Help: Submit form through email

[_Nith_]

I need to submit my form to an email address on single click of a button.

The submit type can be either XML or PDF. But i should neither get any warning nor it should open the Email Client.

And everything should happen within Adobe Reader 9.

Is this possible?

Thanks in Advance,

Nope ....you must interact with the mail dialog now ....stops the ability to have a PDF become a spam generator. Your other option is to submit to a server and have a server program do the email on your behalf.

Thanks Paul,

In my case, it is not necessary to send email; rather I just want to capture the data from the form and save it in database. So if I could submit the form to a server program which is sufficient. But even for this I should not get any warnings.. is this possible?

Thanks & Regards,

For a submission there will be no warnings assuming that you have no validations or mandatory fields.

This works without any issue.

But now, i don't want the user to submit the same form again and again. Any way to prevent this?

I tried to set a flag in a hidden text field. But the data din't get saved.

Then i tried to Reader Extend the form, but still i could not.

Any way to do this Paul?

You coudl disable the submit button on the post submit event.

Hi Nith,

I saw this question and was interested in what sort of database setup you've got etc. Im a bit new and was just starting to explore how or if you could establish a database to take and store  the information directly from the forms

I know this is a bit off topic.... but any pointers would be appreciated. I have CS4 master suite (no other livecycle products or budget for them though) and Office 2007.  

I had been using a custom xml parser to pull the info and put it into target files but this has no storage/reuse potential and is getting real "clunky" so im keen to learn about databases and livecycle.  

cheers

Once if form is closed and re-opened again, the submit button is restored to enable state.

This is where I got stuck.

Thanks & Regards,

hi legallogic,

It works for me without livecycle suite, but we need a LivceCycle Designer to design the form.

In my case, i have designed a user acceptance form which will be sent to a customer for feedback. The customer can fill the form and click submit.

The form will be posted to a .net web page (as url encoded data).

The c# code fetchs the information from the Requester object and save them in a SQL Server 2005 database.

Thanks,

Nith
