• Drop-down list data connection - several text fields-

  Hello to you all, guru out there. I'm new on Adobe LiveCycle, but I have some experience coding in other languages, but not of JavaScript and XML. Trying to get a user to select a client and then based on this selection, I want to return several address fields, a Contact name at the customer's location and a phone number. The data connection is an ODBC connection to our CRM software, and information are stored in a table. The user of the form will be our Service technicians, and the rest of the form will be a place to type notes about the service call. We just try to facilitate the choice of the customer for our Service technicians to rather than having to type all the information. I've searched the forums and the solutions that I keep coming across are values defined by the user in the drop-down list, I have not found an example that illustrates this with a data connection. I work from a return address field to a text field (using the command .rawValue), but I need to fill in some more information. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanking you in advance,

  SSCLadam

  THW way I did is to use two data connections. 1st one to fill the DDlist with a list of customers. In this one, I use simple bind to do the job. Then a 2nd connection that will extract the folder of figurines based on the selection of the DDlist. This requires the code a SQL DB to retrieve the appropriate record. To implement this data connection, I can use the provided column headers to bind columns in the fields in my form. Then when this data connection is open (I put to delayed opening) and it returns the file in question are bound fields get automagically populated!

  I've included a sample I created... .you won't have the Pb, but you can at least see what I did. The code is on the change event of the DDlist

  Hope that helps

• By selecting an option in a drop-down list displays a hidden text box and checkbox

  Being fairly new to the creation of pdf form I would be grateful for some assistance.

  I'm looking to have a number of choices in a drop-down list (dropdown1) show a hidden textbox (textbox1) and the box (checkbox1)

  The selections that would show are:

  iPad only

  Or

  Laptop and iPad

  I'm sure it's rather easy.

  Thanks in advance

  You can use this code as the custom for the drop-down list field validation script:

  var f1 = this.getField("textbox1");
  var f2 = this.getField("checkbox1");
  
  if (event.value=="iPad Only" || event.value=="Laptop and iPad") {
      f1.display = display.visible;
      f2.display = display.visible;
  } else {
      f1.display = display.hidden;
      f2.display = display.hidden;
  }

  The problem is, it does not take the value that the user selects in the drop-down list and the text field. It takes the default value as "January" and the year is '2013' as these two values are given as selectedIndex:0 and editContents: "2013". I compared the coding with a few other scripts work as well, but it does not work. I added several alert boxes to check the value we get.

  In addition, search for it and change also does not work. Please help me on this. Thank you.

• Value of the drop-down list instead of the text

  I want a drop-down list that includes complete definitions for the user to watch but when they choose the item they want only the abbreviation indicating on the form. For example, in my items list is said 'Illinois', but when they select "Illinois" she fills the field with the bind value of 'IT '. Is this possible?

  See the attached file... If it helps...

  I place a TextField on the top of the drop-down list and setting the rawValue selected the TextField... In the case of exit of the combo I hide list drop-down and display of the textfield object. Similarly, in the event you enter in the text field, I am displaying the drop-down list field and hide the text field.

  This way I can show 'IT' If you choose "Illinois" in the menu dropdown.

• Is shipping drop-down list - possible to rename this box?

  To add shipping options I know to add {tag_shippingoptions} - but this then dsiplays "Choose shipping Option" above a drop... can it be renamed - say 'Please select the mode of delivery? "

  In e-commerce, you can not manipulate the final price, since this is a feature to protect this manipulation.

  According to the text of delivery is under a span with ID - shippingSpan CSS off screen, you can position the text and apply a background image for the text you want. Or Javascript, but that would need to be reactivated whenever there are interactions that update the cart by BC scripts.

• Need help to fill in a text box in a drop-down list.

  I think I have most of the code and correct settings, but I need help.

  I have a drop down list that is populated with 3 States. When a certain State is selected in the drop-down list, I need a text box to fill with tax information for each State. I list them set up variables that define the drop-down list data and the data that I want to appear in the text box. I also code basic javascript in place - but it is not perfect.

  The problems I'm having with the dynamic .pdf file include:

  1. where a State is selected in the drop-down list, the user must first click the text box so that the appropriate text appears in the box.

  2. when a State is selected in the drop-down list and the user clicks on the text box to display the text of tax info, tax info text does not change as it should if a user selects a different State in the drop-down list.

  3. the tax information in the text box will appear for 2 States (what is because the variable list that I put in place for these States has too many characters of text? Is there a way to bypass this limitation?)

  Can someone help me change the javascript code and settings that I use to make the text field to fill in correctly? It is the first project of livecycle that I tried and my first experience with javascript.

  Here's the file I'm working on:

• Show / hide the text box drop-down list database

  Hi all

  First time post here - wahoo!  :-)  Brand new user of LiveCycle, and so far I'm loving - very cool app!  I am a bit puzzled, however, and hoping someone can help...

  I am using LiveCycle version 8.05 and try to build a form that has a drop-down list with departments in our Organization.  If the user selects the elements 1-5 on my list, I want two other fields at autopopulated (one for the Admin Assistant) and one for Dept Head.  If however the user selects 'Other', I want a text box (it will be hidden the rest of the time) where the person will be able to type in the Department they work for.  For now, I'm only interested on getting the box 'Other' to appear; I'll worry about the other stuff later.

  Elsewhere in my form, I have a functioning drop-down list that displays a text based on the selection field; However, for some reason this logic does not work with the situation described above.

  My code for the working text field is (in JavaScript)

  var
  
  (sNewSel)
  case "1": 
  switch
  {
  
       TextField6.rawValue = "My text is in here";
  break;
  case "2":
  
  
  
  = "My second text is in here ";
  
  
  break;
  "3":
  
  case 
  
  = "My third text is in here.";
  break;
  TextField6.rawValue
  
  default:
  }
  break;
  
  
  TextField6.rawValue 
  
  
  sNewSel = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
  

  After many fruitless hours yesterday, I got only to the extent where the code below; This was more or less copied right out of a post here.  When I click on the drop-down list, select 'Other', the text field is displayed.  I tried the definition of the text field to the times 'Hidden' and 'Visible' through properties of the object, but no luck.  I tried to use IF statements, subforms and anything else I could think of but am getting nowhere.

  var nSubLength = Subform1.nodes.length;
  var 
  sSelectField 
  for
  
  {if
  {switch (xfa.event.newText) 
  (case "6":
  Subform1.nodes.item(nCount).presence
  break
  default:
  Subform1.nodes.item(nCount).presence
  break
  }
  }
  }
  ;
  = "invisible";;= "visible";((Subform1.nodes.item(nCount).className == 
  "field") &(Subform1.nodes.item(nCount).name== sSelectField)) 
  (var nCount = 0; 
  nCount < nSubLength; 
  nCount++) sSelectField = fieldList.rawValue;
  = sSelectField.replace(' ', '');

  Any ideas?  This is very new to me, but I am familiar with other programming languages, and something this simple should not be difficult which leads me to think I'm missing something.

  Thanks in advance

• fill a list based on a value from the drop-down list box

  Well, I know a way around it but its quite long with what I know. I worked on a better solution for a day now. So maybe (or likely) someone knows better. I'm trying to fill a drop drop down based on a user selection figure in a list of check boxes. I know I could create several drop-down lists and hide away them until the user changes the value of binding. But the dropdowns would consume a lot of space in my form design in liveCycle. So is there another way or I'm stuck he made a long journey. I also need to assign values to these elements, since they change because the values are used as item numbers later that fill a text/number field later in form as a list of materials.

  Tell me if I'm wrong, please (I'm new to all this)

  in the box in the click event

  If (this.) RawValue == 1)

  {

  dropDownList1.addItem ("item # 1", "value1111");

  dropDownList1.addItem ("item # 2", "value2222");

  }

  on the other

  {

  dropDownList1.rawValue = "null";

  }

  I'm sure that null is not good and I don't know that I have to set the drop-down menu to clear items on preOpen. Or maybe not. And there is a way to add items without the addition of a new right of the line? I'm on the right track?

  Hello

  Rather than having the script in each of the boxes, you can have the script in the event preOpen the drop-down list that leans on the boxes.

  I downloaded an example here: https://acrobat.com/#d=VwREjsMgvqXpVqPu54kSNw

  Take a look at the preOpen the dropdown event.

  // clear the dropdown displayed value and items
  this.rawValue = null;
  this.clearItems(); 
  
  // repopulate the items based on the checkboxes
  if(fruit.rawValue == 1)
  {
       this.addItem("Apples", "fruit_001");
       this.addItem("Pears", "fruit_002");
       this.addItem("Oranges", "fruit_003");
       this.addItem("Bananas", "fruit_004");
       this.addItem("Grapes", "fruit_005");
  }
  
  if(cars.rawValue == 1)
  {
       this.addItem("Volvo", "car_001");
       this.addItem("Ford", "car_002");
       this.addItem("Opel", "car_003");
       this.addItem("Toyota", "car_004");
       this.addItem("Nissan", "car_005");
  }
  
  if(counties.rawValue == 1)
  {
       this.addItem("Co. Tipperary", "county_001");
       this.addItem("Co. Cork", "county_002");
       this.addItem("Co. Dublin", "county_003");
       this.addItem("Co. Clare", "county_004");

• Select the string table drop-down list box.

  Hi all

  I want to select the combo box list based on a string in the entry, I don't know how to do this. I have a drop-down list box and the value comes from a database, what I want to do is I want to change the value of the selected box based on the existing value in the database drop-down list. for example, A, B, C D I strings in the drop-down list box, and then in my database, I have a field with the string C, I want to change the C to A. I can't enter the value of C in a string format, but I don't know how to be the first position of the drop-down list box in so the order of channels combo box will be C, A, B, d., the value of C

  Thank you

  Then just write a new array of strings, with the elements of the new agenda, to the "[] strings" - property.

  Either you must code something that allows you to create an array of strings with the elements in the order that you want them to be. If there is a reorganization only, you could do something like:

  -Get the array of strings [] from the drop-down list using a property node box.

  -Find the position of the element you want to place first and use "delete from table", which returns the new array and the element removed.

  -Build a new table 1 d of the deleted item and table remaining. Move to the second combobox Strings [] property of a node property.

• Hide several pages unless the drop-down list is selected

  Hello

  I have a 4-page form that I need to be able to hide 3 of 4 pages until a selection is made from a drop-down list on the first page box. So I have, for example, the pages marked:

  Page 1

  Page 2

  Page 3

  Page 4

  I have a drop down list which has

  Page 2

  Page 3

  Page 4

  for options and if no selection is made only Page 1, will be visible. If the selection is Page 2, I wish that all pages except page 2 to be hidden and only see page 2, did not 4 pages show and only show Page 2 fields.

  Does anyone know how to do this?

  Thanks in advance for any idea!

  The only downside to the activation of your condition is that the first page of the form can not be deleted. If you set page 1 "Hidden" will be hidden objects on the page, but the page itself will remain in the form that is displayed as a blank page.

  Attached shows a form with page 0-4 (5 pages). A drop down menu on page 0 and it controls the rendering of pages 1-4.
