Selecting correct state in the drop-down list.

Here is my delima. I have a form that gets repopulate when users come back to update their contact information. Name, address, etc. of the State. What I am having a problem with performs their State to be selected from a drop-down list. For example, if I'm from Ohio, so I want Ohio selected in the drop-down list. I don't want the user to have to select again the State if the information has not changed. Here's an example of how it is formatted.

< select tabIndex = "5" name = "State" >
< option value = "" selected = "selected" > < / option > "
< option value = 'AL' > Alabama < / option >
< option value = "AK" > Alaska < / option >
< option value = "AZ" > Arizona < / option >
< option value = "AR" > Arkansas < / option >
< option value = "CA" > California < / option >
< option value = "CO" > Colorado < / option >

Of course, the two-letter abbreviation is written and retrieved from the database.
Everyone works with this before?
Any help/information is appreciated.

    Hello
    I created a drop-down list. After you have selected a value from him, I can get a value in the box of text below according to updon one sql query. but the problem is that I HAV to select Page Action when the changed value parameter to the set value and redirect.

    Thank you

    You can create A dynamic Action to set the value while changing the value in the Select list (drop-down list).

    Event: change
    Selection type: item (s)
    Article (s): choose your selection list item
    Action: Execute the PL/SQL Code
    PL/SQL code:

    begin
    select colum_name into :Px_text_item_name from table where column_name=:px_select_list_name;
    end;
    

    Page elements to send: px_select_list_name
    Page referred to return: Px_text_item_name

    Its work for me without refreshing the page. Assume that, if you want to pass this value to the element in another page, then use the branch for redirection and assign the value to the element on the page of another.

  • If/Else statement with the drop-down list

    Hello!

    So I try to get the value of a hidden field in a form (which will be the basis for further calculations in the form) based on what is selected in a drop-down list. If "signed" is selected in the list, then value = the value entered in the field "TimeAddedToDate". If "unsigned" is selected, then the value = 0.

    Hi Jose

    In your links, select your list. Then in the Inspector properties at the end, you will see something like optionList (don't remember the name), but you'll know when you see it. Select the index instead of the object.

  • Fill a textfield with the drop-down list selection

    Day of goo,

    I have a menu drop down and a textfield in a table with one line and an Add button.

    The line is repeatable, now, when I select a value in the drop-down list, say "23" and it fills the textfield say with "Jordan".

    Then I click the addButton to add a new line, now I select '7' in the new drop-down list and its supposed to fill the new textfield with "David Villa,"

    Instead, he replaces what was on the original textfield("Jordan") with David Villa, leaving the new empty textfield.

    Can someone help me please.

    Another thing, I have to select two times for the drop-down list to the fire, why is this?

    Hello

    First thing: I suspect that you have the script to the change event, but use .rawValue for the test. With the drop-down menus, I tend to use the exit and .rawValue event.

    With respect to the textfield, you probably use a too full reference, like "Row1.usersName". If you just use "usersName, for example the name of your textfield, then Acrobat/Reader uses the particular instance of the textfield in the same line as the drop-down list.

    Hope that helps,

  • Adding a selection "in white" for the drop down menus under the list items.

    A lot of people on this form are accidentally selecting items which should not be selected and should be able to change the drop-down menu return empty, if they made a mistake and selected a bad point menu drop-down in the wrong area.

    Help, please

    Thank you!

    See if this example helps... To test, select any value from the drop-down list and click the button "Reset".

    https://Acrobat.com/#d=nniRxwkhF * WzNou2QLAm6A

    You cannot add a white as an item in the drop-down list. So I put a space using the space bar while adding items to the drop-down list.

  • How to pre-select an item in a drop-down list

    Hello

    I need to pre-select an item in a drop-down list, but I don't see how to achieve this using the current or existing methods.  I know that if I set the rawValue then it works, but later when I try to retrieve the data in the selected drop-down list the order of the day list, I get an 'empty' which does not help.  What he needs, is the value, the pair of label to work properly. When I manually select an item in the drop-down list, it works perfectly. But not when I try programtically set. So now I wonder if it is possible to set the index for the drop-down menu, so that he believes have a selected item, when I survey I get the correct value.

    Hope you can help.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    You can use the selectedIndex property to set the desired value.

    And to retrieve a value, I recommend you to use *.getDisplayItem (*.selectedIndex);

    I hope this will help you!

  • Criterion from the drop-down list value null | " "

    I wrote a script to sign before testing a value in a drop-down list before allowing the signing of the document. However, I want to test a null plus a space aka "". "" I added a value in the drop-down list of "" as well as the choice of names for users could erase an accidental in this list selection before they were ready. However when I place the operator (|) in the case or statement of the script, the script does not work. If I remove the | "" declaration the script works as it is supposed to. " How to test for this value of "" as well as the test null so I don't have to write a further statement?

  • Acrobat Pro XI - import Pdf when you use the drop-down list

    Hello Adobe community,

    WARNING: Newbie here

    I am trying to import an existing pdf, after that the user has selected an item in the drop-down list. For example; I have a form with a menu drop-down and three points on the list (caustic diesel, heavy and hydrocarbons). Each item in the list has its own PDF which must to be imported into the document if selected. Once the user has selected in the list, I need to import a pdf file into the existing document. I did some basic research, but can find no chance.

    Any tips or tutorials that I can search will be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Again, it is delicate. You can show/hide entire pages to convert them into models and by changing the value of their hidden property, but this only works in Acrobat. In Reader, you will need to convert the model pages, hide them and then use a script to spawn them when you want to show them and then delete them when you want to hide once more. Possible, but not easy to implement.

  • Is this possible? Subforms appeal based on the drop-down list associated with the database

    I'm hoping to make a dynamic shape and I wonder if it's possible.

    I have a database with about 300 entries - pieces of agricultural goods and a few little bits of info on each of these properties. I want to create a form where users can choose the piece there rather than the property in a drop-down list. Based on the property they select, another menu drop down to fill with the cultures associated with this property. Then based on the selection made in this drop-down list, a specific form will be brought upward.

    For example, a person selects property #102 in the drop-down list. In the database, property #102 is associated with wheat, barley and corn, so the next drop would be complete with these three cultures. The user selects the wheat in the drop-down list and the form of wheat would be called. 

    I hope I explained that well enough.

    Is this possible? And if it's possible, how complicated to do? Assuming that I already have the database and subforms, it would be a long process from weeks to the script, or it would be simple enough?

    Yes, this could be done, here is an example that should help: Drop dependent dropdown (specimen attached)

    On the basis of selection (change event of the second menu drop-down), you can show or hide a subform.

  • Show/hide fields based on the drop-down list

    Hello

    I'm trying to show/hide subforms with a drop-down list selection. I found a lot of information on the subject and ended up with what my script:

     form1.Page1.Division::exit - (JavaScript, client)
    
    switch (Page1.Division.rawValue)
    {
       case "1":
       SubformZZI.presence = "visible";
       SubformZZR.presence = "hidden";   
          break;
     
       case "2":
       SubformZZI.presence = "hidden";
       SubformZZR.presence = "visible";       
          break;
    }
    
    

    However, it does nothing when a selection is made in the drop-down list. I have the "SubformZZI" initially defined as 'Visible' and the 'SubformZZR', originally defined as "hidden".

    Any suggestions?

    Kind regards

    ZeroZone

    Check if the form is saved in dynamic form. File-> save as and choose dynamic for the type of shape...

    Other that that, you should check if you have given the values for the selection of the drop-down list as '1' and '2' in the tab of the control's binding.
