How to make a pdf that can send a form to e-mail selected in a drop-down list box?

I'm trying to be able to create a user of a pdf file I created, select an e-mail from a drop-down list box and then hit send and have it send to this email address that has been selected.

Thanks for the help!

Hello

I don't think (maybe wrong) you can do this in InDesign. At the very least, you could draw the shape in InDesign, but I guess that the interactivity between the selection of the list and the action of mail should be done with Scripting Acrobat or LiveCycle Designer if you have.

FWIW,

Loïc

  • Set point problem selected in the drop-down list box that is the XML data provider

    HI - new to Flex, experienced Java dev., hoping someone can help me see the light of what should be easy but...

    I have a Flex 3 MXML application form that contains a ComboBox as follows:
    < mx:ComboBox id = "physRegion" editable = dataProvider = "{regionRequest.lastResult.region 'false'}" / > "

    The combo box is filled by the provider of data like:
    MX:HTTPService id = "regionRequest" url = "flexDAOServlet" resultFormat = "e4x" method = "POST" >
    < / mx:HTTPService >

    and the underlying XML code looks like this:
    <>region
    Northland < label > < / label >
    < value > 1 < / value >
    < / region >
    <>region
    Auckland < label > < / label >
    < value > 2 < / value >
    < / region >
    ...

    Drop-down list box loads the XML code very well. the user can select an item and the appropriate value is submitted to the server without problem. My problem is when I want to "recharge" the form with previous values.
    I can reload the text without problem fields.

    But I can't work in my ActionScript function, how to set the combo box so that it displays "Auckland" for example, the element with the value = 2. I'll be back this server id, even if I could get the XML code or label if that would help me solve this problem.

    I tried physRegion.selectedItem = "Auckland" - nope. "
    I tried physRegion.selectedItem = 2 - nope.
    I tried
    var XML = myXML:XML ("< region > < label > Auckland < /label > < value_2 > < value > < / region >");
    physRegion.selectedItem = myXML;
    and - nope.

    I know that I'm a new style user here error (and thank you for reading this far! your patience is appreciated) but I can't for the life of me see what it is. Can anyone help?

    Many thanks in advance for clues. Apart from that, I'm loving Flex.
    Kind regards

    Two things to note. The only problem with the function that has provided ChiefRocka00 is that it is based on the identifier of the data, which means your always limited to have that be the identifier of your value. Personally, I'll be back queries a lot of times where the labelFIeld and dataField aren't labels / data pairs a suggestion would be to add a third parameter and have it checked for this identifier instead of the data. The other thing to note is that it is more common to use selectedIndex instead of selectedItem. If you do not want to do something more like physRegion.selectedIndex = selectCboIndexByData ("physRegion, ' Auckland", label) by using the update function of

    public void selectCboIndexByData(theCbo,_theDataValue,_identifier:String):Number {}
    for (var i: Number = 0; i< thecbo.dataprovider.length;="">
    If (theCbo.DataProvider.getItemAt (i) [ID] == theDataValue) {}
    Return i;
    }
    }
    return 0;
    }

  • Forms - selection drop-down list box makes other fields appear

    I am building a form in InDesign that I export to PDF format with several fields (text, drop-down list, radio, checkboxes). Some fields are defined to trigger the visibility of other fields and that works very well. What I want to do and what I can barely reach, is to have a selection for a combo box, make 3 other visible fields. I'm just a beginner when it comes to buttons in InDesign and the forms of the suggestions would be appreciated.

    If it is easier to achieve in Acrobat I try too.

    In case someone sees this in the future, I found a site with a solution which works perfectly and it's so EASY!

    How can I make a visible field on a selection in the drop-down list box? (PDF Forms)

  • How to clear a drop-down list box

    OK, been awhile, here goes:

    I have a combobox non-Edition and 3 radio buttons.

    When I select a radio button, I have reset the items in the list and run:
        category.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
         category.setValue(null);
    The intent is a new list, nothing pre-selected and invited him to display in the text box (?). And it seems to work at first.

    However, when I select the original square, the first list is restored, and the drop-down list box shows my original selection!

    I would like that the prompt as in other radio buttons. I can not even find where the initially select value is stored! It SEEMS that the selection is cleared, as the value, it's the control renderer displays always a selection, even if the previous list, he showed the guest
         templateToggle.selectedToggleProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Toggle>() {
                @Override
                public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Toggle> ov,
                        Toggle old_toggle, Toggle new_toggle) {
    
                    if (templateToggle.getSelectedToggle() != null) {
                        final String tmplType = ((RadioButton) templateToggle.getSelectedToggle()).getText();
                        Preferences.userNodeForPackage(Evidentia.class).put(Const.O_TMPL_TYPE,
                                tmplType);
    
                        Platform.runLater(new Runnable() {
                            @Override
                            public void run() {
                                category.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
                                category.setValue(null);
                                category.getEditor().setText("");  << was getting desparate
                                ListManager.getInstance().setTemplateCategoryList(TemplateDao.getInstance().findCategories(tmplType));   << template list is the list behind the combo
                            }
                        });
    
                    }
                }
            });
    Thoughts?

    This looks like a bug: you must file a JIRA for her.

    As you said, the State seems to be correctly updated: getSelectionModel () .getSelectedIndex () and getSelectionModel.getSelectedItem () return the correct value.

    The only solution I can find is to define an explicit Circus on the drop-down list box and call setText (null) on the circus to clear the displayed selection:

  • A drop-down list can do the calculation based on the value selected in a drop down list?

    Form Acrobat X Pro Adobe

    Can I have a drop down list create a calculation based on the value selected in the menu drop-down?

    We have a set lunch and want the user to choose to be "A lunch', 'Lunch B'"C Lunch"or"just the milk. "

    It is for each of the 5 days of the week. There are therefore 5 drop downs, which have all the same 4 above choice.

    If the user chooses among the 3 lunches and then put $2.00 in the total box at the end of the line. If 'Just the milk' may put 0.50 in the box.

    The total area at the end of the line must keep a record of all 5 days and give a total.

    So if someone chooses lunch A LUN, sea and Sun and just milk for Tuesday and Thursday and then the total for this week must be $7,00

    Is it possible by using code or something?

    I did it in Excel, but we need it is an Adobe pdf file.

    TIA

    OK the total box has a 10 all the time to make it look like $ 2.00 for

  • How to use the drop-down list box to fill in a text box

    I'm a beginner when it comes to Java Script.  I have seen a lot of different discussions, look at a lot of articles "helping" Acrobat 9 and Java Script, but only to be left confused and dazed.  I hope someone can tell me how to write a script that fills a text box that sits on my form with the value of exports of the selection in the combo box...

    Thank you

    If you want that the read-only text box, simply set with the following custom calculate script:

    Set this field to the value of the drop-down list box

    Event.Value = getField("combo1").value;

    but replace "combo1' with the actual name of the combo box field.

  • Slide to pause until that value is selected from a drop down list?

    Hi there everyone.

    I try to create a cover page of sorts for a simulation of system where the user is asked to enter his name and choose where they work in for a combo box (using the drop-down list box widget)

    I have the name entry part work and the drop-down list box is displayed, but I'm having some problems with it.

    First of all, as soon as a value is selected in the box is jumps to the next slide. I would have rather navigation controlled by a button that the user can make sure that they have chosen the correct value before continuing. Is there a way to do this?

    Hello

    This is the craziest question, but think I found the reason: Although the widget looks a lot smaller in edit mode, when opening it (preview or published) it falls above the button. When I have it away, seems to work. Can you confirm?

  • How to animate a drop-down list box?

    I have a combo box that get is filled from a web service. This can happen in the background, the user made other tasks.

    I would like the drop-down list box jiggle or bounce up and down when it gets its data. Can anyone offer ideas on how to do this?

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I found the rotation effect to work just great. Here is the code I used for anyone else who is interested:

    In my web service call that updates the drop-down list box, I declare the function jiggle on the result:

    cbxProjects.visible = true;
    jiggleStart.play ();
