How to make a selection in a drop-down list to open a specific pdf document?

• How to make the fields from the drop-down list required to make a selection before you save a PDF file

  I have a PDF form where I entered a JAVA script in some areas by using the option ON BLUR under 'Actions' and it works very well to prevent users to go to another site if they leave the field with the empty JAVA Script in place.

  My question is that I have other form fields that have a drop down menu where they can choose several options. I would also like to make these fields to where they can't move forward on the form unless they choose an option in the list. However, because with the option in the list "choose a ' is a default option entered into the field (field is not empty), script JAVA of BLUR ON option I used in my empty fields does not work to block the user to move beyond the matter without selecting an option. They are able to save the form with all the drop down menus staying to 'pick '.

  I made the field "Required fields" then they are highlighted with the red area around, but is there another tool to force them to choose an option for each in the drop down menus before you save the form, instead of being able to save with leaving the 'choose One' in the field by default?

  The best way to do this without knowing the default value of the field is to compare the value of the field to the default value of the field... You must make sure that your default value is not part of the possible acceptable answer. It works with most of the field types that a user can fill.

  If (event.value! = event.defaultValue) {}

  do something;

  App.Alert ("required field not completed. \nField name: "+ event.target.name, 1, 0);

• How to set a repeating subform based on a value selected in a drop down list?

  Please forgive me if this is somewhere, but I spent a few hours searching and have not led to what.

  I have a drop-down list that allows the user to select the number of teams in you listing (1-5). Then I have a subform with all the necessary information for each team. I wish that the subform to repeat automatically based on the number selected in the drop-down list, because I need this information for each of the two teams by registering.

  Thank you!

  In the case of exit of the drop-down list, in formcalc, put something like:

• Populate a drop-down list based on selected in a drop-down list in a separate table

  Good day all.

  This may seem a simple question for most, but... He had me frustrated trying to figure out.

  I'm trying to fill in a drop-down list that is based on what is selected in another drop-down list.

  Let me explain what I've done so far.

  Life cycle of Designer 8.05.2

  When I got the two drop-down lists in the same table, I've not had a problem. The code I used is

  The table name is "table1".

  if (directorate.rawValue == '1')

  {

  division.clearItems ();

  division.addItem ("select" "")

  }

  I was asked to move things and now 'division' is located in 'Table2 '.

  I know that I need the "Table1" reference, but I'm running into a syntax error. I tried the following code;

  if (Table1 Row1 directorate.rawValue == '1')

  {

  division.clearItems ();

  division.addItem ("make a choice")

  }

  if (Table1.Row1.directorate.rawValue == '1')

  {

  division.clearItems ();

  division.addItem ("make a choice")

  }

  Any help would be appreciated

  You are missing a semicolon at the end of the line, addItem, and the second code example, you have no periods in the SOM (Table1 Row1 direction) reference.

  The best way to get the path to another field is to ctrl-click on the ground while you are in the script editor.

• 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

  everything.

  Before even that I chose something there are 10 in the box.

  I am a newbie to Adobe scripting Total used VB/A .NET etc ' 1980

  However.

  Can you do any debugging in code?

  Initialize the sum

  var sum = 0;

  Make a loop on the drop-down list boxes and add the cost of the invoice sum

  for (var i = 1; i)< 6;="" i="" +="1)">

  Sum += getField("Week1Day"_+_i).value == 'just milk? 0.50: 2,00;

  }

  Set this field to the amount

  Event.Value = sum;

• Select from the drop-down list and populate a list in another menu drop down

  I have a drop down list with 10 items in the list. If possible, would like for a selection in the drop-down list to populate a drop-down list with another list of selections. Each of the 10 points in the first list each will have a list of different options in the second drop-down list. I don't know how to build this solution.

  Thank you

  Hello

  It was because of the clear rawValue script that I put in the output from the drop-down list event businessFunction.

  I fixed it:

  // clear the current selection in the department dropdown
  dept0.rawValue = null;
  dept0.execEvent("exit");

• Subforms making visible depending on what is selected in the drop-down list

  Good day to all;

  Looks like I'm '0' batting today. For some reason I'm not able to get a number of things working today... Maybe I should just write off that day as a loss... ; >)

  Another way; I'm trying, unsuccessfully, to get forms to become visible depending on what is selected from a drop-down list. I tried to use "switch" (see below), but I end up getting the famous error "syntax".

  I also tried an 'if' statement (see below), but that doesn't seem to work either.

  What I would like to ask you is when a user selects 1 of 2 choices 1 2 forms sub becomes visible.

  So, if the user has selected in the drop-down list of the bad and they choose now to select the right pair, I want the form incorrect sub to again become invisible.

  I'd appreciate any help

  switch (this.rawValue)

  {

  case "2" :

  staffing_inter. Presence = 'visible'

  on the other

  staffing_inter. Presence = 'hidden';

  breaking ;

  }

  IF statement

  if (this.rawValue = 2)

  {

  staffing_inter. Presence = 'visible'

  }

  else {

  staffing_inter. Presence = 'hidden';

  }

  Number of things...

  What statements do not use "else". You must specify each value. But you can nest another code in a statement that.

  Using a drop down you need to get the new value when the selection is made.

  Thus (guess what you did 'Specify the item values' liaison for the DDL tab):

  var newValue = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
  switch(newValue){
       case "1":
            //code
       break;
       case "2":
            //code
       break;
       //etc.
  }
  

  Or with your statement:

  var newValue = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
  
  if(newValue = 2){
      staffing_inter.presence = "visible"
  }
  else{
       staffing_inter.presence = "hidden";
  }
  

• Filling of a numeric field by selecting from a drop-down list

  Hello all;

  I went through the 38 pages on the form now to try to understand it myself. I must have missed something or this day becomes medium long.

  I am filling a numeric field that is based on what is selected in a drop-down list box.

  For the test, I use only 2 fields

  DropDownList1 and digital Field1

  I If (DropDownList1.rawValue == 1) { }

  NumericField1.rawValue = 25;

  }

  On the other;

  (DropDownList1.rawValue == 2) { }

  NumericField1.rawValue = 35;

  }

  That worked. I am now getting the error "missing; before the statement

  "6:xfa: form1 [0]: #subform [0]: DropDownList [0]: output"

  Specify the value of points is checked in the tab links for DropDownList1.

  I said this with a single selection, who worked

  if (DropDownList1.rawValue == 1) { }

  NumericField1.rawValue = 25;

  }

  Thank you all

  Chomp

  If it's a copy/paste of your script, you have a semicolon after the "else" and "else" should be lowercase.

  And for nested IFS, you need an "else if", so:

  If (DropDownList1.rawValue == 1) {}

  NumericField1.rawValue = 25;

  }

  Else if (DropDownList1.rawValue == 2) {}

  NumericField1.rawValue = 35;

  }

  ElseIf...

  If you have a lot of statements, you might want to look at using a statement that may be easier to read.

  {Switch (DropDownList1.RawValue)}

  case '1 ':

  NumericField1.rawValue = 25;

  break;

  case '2 ':

  NumericField1.rawValue = 35;

  break;

  etc.

• 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,

• selection in the drop-down list makes the visible field

  I have two drop down fields, select from the first drop down field provides a list of the items contained in the second drop-down list. When an item in the second drop-down list is selected, I want a hidden field to become visible.

  I don't know how to write the script on the second menu drop-down to make the visible area. Here is the script that I have, which does not work:

  If (this.rawValue == 'ACD');

  {

  agentID.presence = 'visible';

  }

  If (this.rawValue is 'Agent');

  {

  agentID.presence = 'hidden';

  }

  Thank you

  HI Margaret,.

  Here is the corrected form https://acrobat.com/#d=D3yZytcriTw0pMp4S232Wg.

  You had semi colon after the if statement (which was throw). Also, I've shortened the reference to the agentID object:

  if (this.rawValue == "ACD") {
      agentID.presence = "visible";
  }
  else if (this.rawValue == "Agents") {
      agentID.presence = "hidden";
  }

• How to use Javascript to populate a text field based on a selection in a drop-down list?

  Greetings,

  I have virtually no experience with JavaScript and I'm trying to find a way to add some functionality to basic Automation to a form of Adobe.  I have a drop down box called "Hospital_Name" which will contain about 7 possible selections.  When the user makes a selection, I would like to have the field of text (called "Hospital_Address") under the drop-down list fill with the corresponding address to the selection.  I have the "Hospital_Address" text field set up for multiple lines and want the address to have a line break between the address and the city/province/postal code.

  For example, if the user has selected "Hospital 1", the text field would display:

  123 main St

  Anytown, CA 12345

  Help or you can provide examples would be greatly appreciated.

• Make the field visible if 'Other' selected in the drop-down list

  If you use ColdFusion requiredattribute, I don't know how to change this dynamic. But if you do validtion aside client with javascript - or double check it after you submit with ColdFusion, it is easy in principle.
