• Reading a field readonly/people with disabilities gives null pointer exception

  Hello
  
  I have an advanced table and when the user selects the employee number field, is filling another field number. But the user wanted the employee name field to be readonly. As a custom page, I put the employee field name readonly true. But when the user click on the button Add a line, I need to display the employee number line and employee name values above in the newly created row. I use rowAtRangeindex and get the values of the previous line. But when I read the employee of the name row.getAttribute("EmployeeName").toString () gives a null pointer exception. When the readonly is set to false, it works well. Can someone suggest me how can I fix. Make the employee name field readonly and at the same time, I should be able to read the value and set the value of the following line.
  
  Thank you
  HC

  I don't know how it can fail because you have found the value of the attribute of the line. Anyway, to create a value of the form, attach the attribute of VO employee name and try the row.getAttribute method and see if it works.

  Thank you

• Password-protect and hide a form field

  Hello

  I was looking through old discussions in the forum looking for an answer to my question.  A code of George Johnson was really helpful, but there is a function more that I have to add to it and am struggling to figure out on my own.

  I created a PDF with form fields.  Different departments within the Organization will review this PDF and pass it back.  The Admin dept needs a text field called 'internal comments' that they can protect the password.  They would like to add text, then password - protect only one field so it is hidden for other departments that examine this PDF file.  Admin must copy either visible to them when they enter their password.

  The script that I found works really well (see below).  I created a button to hide the script, and when you click it, it locks and unlocks the "Internal comments" text field with the password.  However, I can't figure out how to HIDE the 'internal comments' field after someone in the Admin entered their information.   I tried setting up a field to show/hide action, but I can't make it work.  And I'm not enough common sense to know how to change the Javascript code.

  How can I specify that the 'internal comments' field remains HIDDEN when a user enters his password to 'disable this field' and VISIBLE when they enter a password to "activate this field? '

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

• The readOnly property of shape after it is been unsuccessful.

  Hi all

  I had a form I created in Acrobat and adds some features using LiveCycle. By pressing a button on the form it was readOnly.

  By saving in Acrobat with appropriate rights, in drive, I was able to fill out the form, make it readOnly and save.

  It was working fine until I decided to do some editing in LiveCycle. I did this and still once saved in Acrobat with the appropriate rights.

  Now in the drive, I am able to fill it, make it readOnly and save it but the next time I open the form in the Player, it is read-only no longer.

  As you can see, it has been possible first and then broke. I have no idea why the form does not record the access of readOnly property.

  He becomes readOnly when I press the button and stays like that until I close, however.

  Any help would be much appreciated,

  See you soon,.

• Blocking of form fields before you send it by e-mail

  
  

  I created a form with fields and the button to send it by e-mail. This button should send the form with the information filled in PDF format, before being sent, some of the form fields to read only so no one else can change the contents of the fields.

  To achieve this end, I used the following script:

  1. F.Page_1.Button1::full - (JavaScript, client)
  2. F.Page_1.FIELD_ONE.access = "readOnly";

  ..

  1. F.Page_1.FIELD_TWO.access = "readOnly";
  2. app.execMenuItem ('Save');

  However, when the file is sent to the fields are not locked (ReadOnly), they can always be changed.

  Thanks for the tips!

  It is because you are using a Submit button. Thise buttons cannot be programmed. I suggest you add a second button (it is a regular button) and then the click event will be active. Add your code to this button and at the end of your code you can programmatically click the button submit like this your_button_name.execEvent ("click"). After that you can make your invisible submit button so that the user sees only a single button click.

  HOEP that helps

• Using the information in form field for e-mail address in the mailto function

  Hello

  I encountered a problem for which I seem not to be able to find an answer, even after several hours spent browsing the web:

  Basically, I have created a form that I want to distribute to my customers who are supposed to use for their clients. This is to ensure that all processes are standardized.

  My client fills part of the form with their contact information, including their contact email address in a separate field. The end-user (client my client) fills in the rest of the form. After completing the form, the end user is supposed to then click on a button that needs to send the entire pdf form by e-mail.

  I know how to set an email address recipient using the mailto: int; However, as I have many clients that the form will be distributed in the first place, I can't determine before the target of the mailto: command. So I was wondering if it is possible to set the target of the mailto: function to use the information that my client is entered in the contact email address field, so that, once this particular form field is filled, the e-mail address is imported into the functionality of the button and ensuring that the button send is very individualized.

  I would have thought that it is possible, as it is possible, for example, to use a part of the form to appear as the body of the text of an email, but since I was still very much a beginner/amateur regarding all things javascript/php, I've no idea what should look like the script.

  All thought and all help would be greatly appreciated.

  Greetings and thank you very much.

  Yes #3 is the right one.. .the email real option contains the property that has the e-mail address specified in it... then the false e-mail button to change this property before you send it. In your case instead of reference the DDlsi field, you must reference your field that contains the e-mail address.

  Make sense?

  If you're not used to the code, it can look daunting... . If you want to send your form to [email protected] I can code upwards for you so that you can see in your context.

• Remove the spaces and special characters to a form field

  Hello

  I am tragically new to all this, but I'm trying to create a form in Adobe Acrobat 9.  I am trying to use a custom script Format to make entries in a form field and automatically remove the spaces and special characters (hyphens specifically).  For example, if a user 'RAN - 99 06' entries I want to change it to "RAN9906."  I found this script that does not allow users to input special characters

  If (! event.willCommit) {}

  
  Event.change = event.change.replace (/ [------$# ~ %------*------*------^-------------(\)------+=------[\]------{\}; \ "\ <>\ \?"]) \ | \\\ !] /g, "");

  }

  And it's OK, but I can't understand how to prohibit the spaces.  In addition, the perference would be a script to allow users to enter data as they wish, but to clean after leaving the text field.

  Thanks in advance!

  Yes, there are a few changes during the passage of the code of the event in the sequence of keys to the Validate event.

  First of all, you need not try the willCommit. In fact, when the sequence of events of field reached the Validate event, the field is already committed. The Validate event does not therefore the property of willCommit.

  Secondly, in the Validate event, you work on the event.value and either event.change. Thus, you will replace accordingly.

  And who should actually do.

  I hope this can help.

• Master cfgrid - detail form fields

  I have a cfgrid that uses data binding to display data (summarized) masters. I want the user is able to select one of the rows in the datagrid control and not only have the summary data show in form fields in the grid (which works well so far), but I want to spend the keyfield hidden in a cfc in order to run a single record to the detail data query and show that both on the fly. I used a cfinvoke to pass the field key of a cfc, returning a recordset of the query and display detailed in the form fields. Everything works if I hardcode the keyfield (diadocumentkey) integer and me can even display the keyfield in the form below, but I have tried many variations trying to get the selected value record keyfield to be used in the cfinvoke the EFA without success. Isn't this possible? Is there another way? I tried what all the fields to the data grid, but given the number of possible records is very large, there is a decline in great performance. Some users will read and some will be able to edit and delete the record. My JavaScript is low, then perhaps there is a way to use it. Following are excerpts from the code:

  You need to do some research on the cfgrid controls

  The next attribute (pagesize = "" #intShowRows # "") means that only that the number of records returned.
  The number of columns does not really affect the performance.

  as there should be a way to transmit the selected grid item id to bring detail data just for the record chosen without clicking another button for details

  There see the following code excerpt, but in your case, there no need you for this

  Type = "xml".
  bind = "SWC:GridDataMessages.getMessageDetails(MessageID={messageform:messagegrid.ID})"
  XPath = "messages/message.

• stop filling of form field on android

  I am running Firefox 35.0 on a Tablet Asus Transformer TF701T. When I have online forms to fill out, Firefox starts a list of options to choose from to fill the field. An example of this is a name - Firefox displayed a list of names to choose from. I don't need ALL the names it lists. How can I remove the ones I don't want? I discovered how to make Firefox for the desktop, but not android. Please help because this is getting frustrating.

• How to allow the addition of attachments and more filled in form fields and signing existing signature field

  How do to allow the addition of attachments and more filled in form fields and signing of signature field when creating a secure pdf document?

  You must allow commenting as well. Reader users will be able to add attachments as comments. You can also use JavaScript with Player 11 and DC to automate the process somewhat.

  If you need users of Reader in order to add attachments as Acrobat can, you need to add the right of use of file attachments, but you can't do that with Acrobat.

  Hello.

  I guess that these areas use the option 'allow formatting of the rich text.

  Thus, it is not Properties: aspect which resulted in implementing in the form of text, thetext in the form field"' bar (CTRL-E or CMD-E).

  Uncheck the option 'Allow rich text formatting' to return to this behavior.

  Try adding the custom according to the text field validation script:

  This sets the ToolTip text of the value of the field.
