Posting 'rich text' on 'HTTP Post' from PDF Form.

[naren_k]

Hi,

I have requirement where we genarate the PDF FORM from LS FormsService, present this to user where user edits the FORM and clicks subimit.The form will be submitted to a servlet on HTTP Post where the data is processed as http params and OutPutService will be called to flatten this document and store in ECM later.

Now the problem with this is we are not able to post rich text on HTTP Submit from PDF form. When rich text box is filled with formatted text and posted, only the plain text is reaching the servlet.

Can somebody pls help on this if there is a way post rich text from PDF form to a servlet with out lossing the format? many Thankz.

That makes no sense .....the rich text field will submit xhtml that has the text and the formatting in it. Can you trace the LC process and see what the inbound data looks like and validate that there is no xhtml in those fields? You can also save the data locally before submitting so you can see what it looks like from the form. This will also tell us whether we are recieving everything as it was expected.
