Rename fields with the same name

Hello

I ended up creating a form with several boxes of hundreds.  In order to create, I create a few check boxes and then cut and paste to generate the rest of the form.  Unfortunately, this means that all the fields have the same name and face to the same value.  Can I write a script that will change the name of each field?  My boxes are "Yes #0", ' Yes #1 "," #2 yes ", etc.."  I want them to be 'yes0', 'yes1', "YES2", etc.  But, when I try to 'this.getField("yes#0"), we just return null.  Y at - it a syntax that I can use with getField to go individually to each box?

I don't really want to open the properties on the + 400 boxes Editor...

Thank you.

You cannot rename fields with JavaScript. But you can create as many times as you need in a loop by using the doc.addField method. So could copy properties (rect, etc.) of your current fields and recreate each using the name you want. You can access instances of fields (widgets) using the getField as method:

Get the rect of the first 'yes' field

var Rect = getField("yes.0").rect;

For more information, see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.679.html

When you are finished adding new fields, you can remove the old with the doc.removeField method.

  • Update database with several form fields with the same name

    If I've made good progress on my CF photo album project, but now I meet a problem.  Once I downloaded a collection of photos and them inserted in my database, I bring up a page that is actually an array containing the thumbnail of each image, some info on it and the description of the photo.

    The table is inside a < form > tag, and the description is a < textarea > tag.  I have many text boxes that I have pictures, so there may be any number (within reasonable limits).  I'd like to be able to type a description for each picture in each text box rather than having to do one at a time, and then click the button submit to update my file.

    Each text box has the same name, so I had the idea of adding a hidden form field that held the photo ID, then on the processing page, I might have a < cfloop >.  My problem is that I can not understand how to associate each photo with the corresponding description ID, especially if we consider that some of the descriptions may be empty.

    Is there a good way to do this?

    As you probably understand, giving all your textareas eponymous means that when the form is submitted, you get a value that is a list of the contents of each text box comma-delimited.  If none of the commas are typed in the text box, you have a problem.

    My preferred method is to include some sort of identifier as part of the name of the form field.  Since you have ID photo available, I would use those.  This would give your names textareas as description_111, description_112, etc.

    When the form is submitted, I loop through the form.fieldnames list.  If the first 12 characters are 'description_111', I can remore 12 characters to get the id.  I also have the content of the text box using the array notation.

  • Renaming of files exe with the same name

    I have

    just installed a game on steam.  The package ended up being buggy, so it did not work.  But I found a solution on the Forum and he told me to rename these two files exe under the same name.  Its the only way to fix the game.  Others did and cela worked.  When I try to rename the file an error pops up telling me that I can't have two files with the same name.  In summary, this is what is happening.

    two files are: prince of persia.exe and princeofpersia_launcher.exe .

    Need to rename it to princeofpersia_launcher.exe to the prince of persia.exe

    An error pops up saying ERROR RENAME FILE or FOLDER: cannot rename princeofpersia_launcher: a file with the specified name already exists.  Specify a different file name.

    The problem is that these two exe files MUST have the name of prince of Persia: work.  Is it possible that I could do?

    It is not possible to have two files with the same name in the same folder.  Something is wrong with the instructions that you try to follow.  What do say exactly?  Can you give us a link for them?

  • Attributes with the same name - ADF BC Validation Messages

    Hi all

    I have two entities and associated views. Each of them have attributes with the same name. In my particular case, they are two dates - StartDate and EndDate. EndDate on both entities have validations (Expression of Script). The validations to check that the end Date is later than the Date of departure - "return newValue > StartDate. Is this a valid validation groovy script for dates?

    I have a unique creation page that contains these two entities. What is happening now, is that if the validation fails even one of the entities, fields of both entities are reported. In some cases, I can even see two validation error messages is displayed.

    Needless to say, rename the attribute on one of the entity (and the corresponding view object) seems to work.

    I have a simple repro case (contains Jdev project and SQL script) here - http://dox.bijesh.info/reproValidationMsg.zip and a screenshot here - http://dox.bijesh.info/ReproADFBCValidation.jpg

    Would be very happy if someone could either point out what I'm doing wrong or confirm that it is a bug.

    FWIW, I've changed the validation script for "return false" on an entity and "return true" on the other. This leads to the same question as well.

    This seems to be a bug.

    However, using a validator compares as stated earlier is the right way to accomplish what you're trying to do.

  • several devices on the network with the same name

    I want to install Windows 7 OS computers on a domain with Small Business SERVER 2003.  Curiously, I see all the computers on the network, where I should be able to, but one of them WK02011, is not accessible from all Windows 7 systems because there are multiple devices with the same name on the network according to a diagnosticn check.  WK02011 is visible and accessible from other systems on the network that are runjning XP OS.  There is only one device named WK02011 on the network.  I don't have this problem with any other XP system - that is - I can see and access all of the other XP machines on the network with the exception of WK02011.  I can't access WK2011 from the server and the server indicates that it is multiple devices with the same ID.  Rename the XP would be complicated because of having to re - set up the service to the customer and then turn around and install 7 OS in the workstation in the coming days.

  • Mix records with the same name of the internal and external space (clip +)

    Hello

    I have a question regarding the reading of 'File': if having a folder on the inside and external space microsd, both are named "graphics". Is it possible to shuffel these 2 files with the same name? There are also a few other folders I want to be included, so I just couldn't use the "play all" option. I don't want to use replay by id3tag because mines are always screwed up and would be a lot of work to mark all the appropriate files in the.

    Thanks for help

    m.

    I've not played with playlists much.

    If ID3 tags are all screwed up, I would use the MP3tag utility to change the label of the kind in "Charts" on internal and external memory, then you access the kind-> just Charts and play at all.  It is probably not an option if your labels are blank and you don't want to ruin you, but it's really quick & easy to do with MP3tag.

    I think that even Windows Explorer (XP/Vista) can change the field type in the batch (select all 'charts' music files, click right properties, summary (Advanced) tab change the field of its kind in "Charts", OK).  I keep the ID3tags 'good' on my PC, but edit on my player according to the needs.

    Just another idea which is really easy if you're not afraid of screwing the ID3 tags.

  • CF8 cfquery multiple table join with the same names of columns - default

    This seems to be a defect in the CF8 cfquery object. I'm at a loss as to a solution or a good work around. With regard to the substance, this query is generated dynamically on the fly based on what is happening in it a user. This isn't the most elegent SQL but work and return all columns. The app itself is a data viewer to look at the logs. Here is an example of a query being generated.

    Select *.

    of web_trans, web_info_trans, web_res_trans

    where (web_info_trans.trans_dte > = '' 2008-12-1)

    and web_info_trans.trans_dte < '' 2008-12-2)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_dte = web_trans.trans_dte)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_num = 5060345)

    and (web_info_trans.trans_num = web_trans.trans_num)

    and (web_res_trans.trans_num = 5060345)

    and (web_res_trans.trans_num = web_trans.trans_num)

    and (web_trans.web_trans_cde = "NTUI")

    and (web_trans.web_status_cde = 'P')

    and (web_trans. TRANS_NUM < 5060347)

    order of web_trans. TRANS_NUM / / desc

    These three tables contain a similar column called ZIP_CDE. They contain different values, and when this query is executed in Microsoft Query Analyzer results are displayed correctly. Run this same query SQL with CFQUERY and the value of one of the other tables (web_trans) will eventually replace the value for the other columns called ZIP_CDE. The exact amount columns are retruned only values some how get corrupted.

    This is a defect of cf8 is a book autour or an update that resolves this problem that I may have missed?

    Thank you for the ideas.

    Thus it seems still as a default since CF is essentially where, except for the return value play. Other query tools return results correctly so for me, it turns out be CF bug at a certain level.

    Actually I'm swinging to agree with you here, but not for the same reason.  CF actually * is * get all the columns back (as you say), it just doesn't expose a way to tell the difference between a column called 'x' and an another column called 'x', because the way to access the data in columns is simple queryname [columnName] [rowNumber] (or a Variant fo this, but all the amount of variations to that or abbrev. it).  This code shows how he has all four columns of the original two queries (being a stand-in for tables, in this case):


    Q1 = queryNew("");
    Q2 = queryNew("");
       
    queryAddColumn (q1, 'id', [1,2,3,4]);
    queryAddColumn (q1, "data", ["one", "two", "three", "four"]);
    queryAddColumn (q2, 'id', [1,2,3,4]);
    queryAddColumn (q2, "data", ["tahi", "rua", "toru", "wha"]); It's Maori, in case you are interested


    SELECT *.
    Q1, q2
    WHERE q1.id = q2.id

    So CF knows there are four columns (a call getMetadata (q3) get also demonstrates this), but it does not expose a way to approach the second (or even greater) column of the same name.  This is the bug/shortfall.

    However, relying on an underlying coldfusion.sql.QueryTable method, you can rename the columns, so:

    Then you're OK.

    I would be normally reluctant to recommend doing this, because these methods change from version to version of CF, but it's your call whether this approach will help you.

    To be honest, I'm with Owain who, even in SQL one generally doesn't work with columns with the same name, an alias them qualified with a table name/alias. As the table columns from of is not returned by SQL with the result set, it must be evidence against this by folding the columns in the first place.

    Also, I wonder at the bottom of the extraction of data, you don't really know the structure, that is to say, do SELECT *.  How can you know not even that is ours as the first column, second column, etc.?  I don't think that SQL applies in fact a contract that, t - it?  (I don't know).

    What are you actually do here?

    Hi Akush, when you install 7 - zip, make itself the default application to open .zip and .rar files. So if you double click on the .rar file, it should open in 7 - zip. If you prefer to decompress immediately, right click the file and look for new 7 - zip items in the menu. I can't think of a way to do this automatically, however.

  • Problem in creating several attributes XML with the same name of the attribute

    I am trying without success trying to create several attributes XML with the same name, as shown here in a Microsoft example configuration file:



      
         
         
         
      

    I'm calling the NewDocument GetRootElement functions and then "newelement" (appSetting), "newelement" (add)

    Then I call AddAttribute with add, key & Key0, then with add, value & 0.  This seems to work fine but when I try to add the second pair of key & Key1 and value attributes & 1 for item "Add" replaces ""and I find myself with"" only.

I don't know how to retrieve these values, the program always consider that the first tag and not others, I tried to remove each tag after obtaining its values, that he did not.

    Does anyone have an idea to solve the problem?

    As you can read in my last post, you must read and throw 'x' lines:

    OpenFile)

    Skip lines

    for (i = 0; i< x;="" i++)="" readline="">

    Start reading the useful lines

    ReadLine () / / read a line

    ... / / Interpret the line

    Don't forget to add a control during i/o operations of robust error and to check the end of the file.
