Hi,
I have a project where I need to create an online application system, where the user has to fill in a form where the results have to be saved into a database.
I wanted to create a html based form, but then someone told me PDF can also do cool things, so I’m researching that road.
I already managed to create a simple form and submitting it to a web service (java servlet in my case) and that works pretty nicely.
I'm new to the whole PDF form creating and I’m wondering if certain things are possible. So I’m trying the experts in this form for a yes/no answer.
Are the following things possible with PDF forms:
1) validation: number & date checks, eg, a number should be higher than 4, or be a valid number/date
2) If I answer A at question 1, I should skip Question 2 and go directly to Question 3. Is it possible to hide Question 2, depending on what I answered at Question 1?
3) Is it possible to attach files to the form, like a photo? And also upload it to the web service.
4) After I submit the form, is it possible to lock the form so that no other changes can be made? In other words, you may only submit once.
5) Possible to activate the print button after the form has been submitted?
6) Can a drop-down lists be dynamic? Instead of hard coding the list, calling a web service to fill the values?
Thanks in advance for any insight,
Kind regards
Ido
