Pop-up when opening form

Hallo all,

How can I set an pop-up script to the opening of an pdf form?

greetings,

Hi Timo,  Good option is to use the docReady event, as this only fires once. You could use xfa.host.messagebox(), app.alert() or the response method. Check the help file for the syntax.   Niall

Hi Niall,

I have an book from J.P. Terry with some examples for messageboxes, but he doesn't tell me in witch event it must placed. So i asked is here.

Do you also now witch event i must use for show an pop-up before closing?

greetings Timo

Hi Timo,

JP Terry's book is excellent.

For the opening form popup I would use the docReady event of the root node.

When closing you could try the docClose event, but the form will have already closed when this event fires.

Okay,

I will try some boxes to get it nice.
