  • There is a very simple way to pass info to a server script.  Add it to a query string in the URL.  Use JavaScript on the submit button in the PDF to grab the email from a form field and then paste it onto the end of the URL.  The submitted data is in the Body of the HTTPRequest, a query string doesn...

  • The "listen" property is a good find.  I didn't know that one. Seems like it could be a solution.   And yes, I did mean the ES2 Macros.  Seems that if you need to add a feature to a lot of fields at once, then this would be a good way to do it.Thom Parker The source for PDF Scripting Info pdfscripti...

  • Unfortunately the XFA event structure is mostly fixed.  Events can't be added at runtime like it's done in many other JavaScript models.  That's not to say that you can't dynamically create the event structure in the Form model using the XFA node operations. You can.  It's just that the model won't ...

  • Manually placing 2500 fields must be a pain in the butt as well.  I have a suggestion that will make things easier.  Create one field with all the code you need for navigating.  Then place this field in repeatable subforms in such a way that the 50x50 array is automatically built.  The code would of...

  • Actually I've already done that in my previous posts.  I know that there are some scripts floating around out there for doing this sort of thing, but they probably aren't exactly what you want and are mostly for developers who can modify them for their own use.  I also pointed you to a form data ser...

  • Actually, I believe that this was the point of my post, that you could write a server side script to mail off the submitted data.  And the server side script doesn't have to do any parsing, it can be very simple.  All it needs to do is to write all the bytes in the body of the HTTPRequest into a fil...

  • LiveCycle forms and PDF documents are very different things.  The clock example is a native PDF document.  Importing it into LiveCycle will basically destroy it.  Both use Core JavaScript as the scripting language but each has it's own Document Object Model, or SDK.  And they use completely differen...

  • Acrobat submits forms to a server as a standard HTTPRequest.  The data is stored in the body of the request in the format specified by the submit action on the PDF.  If you can write any kind of server side script, then you can probably write a script to package up the contents of the HTTPRequest in...

  • Unfortunately you are looking at an old version of the license dialog example.  The newer version does not show the highlighted text.  The problem is that the text box containing the license text is the first selectable element in the dialog object definition, so by default it is selected on dialog ...
