I have a subform where I use "TAG.instanceManager.addInstance(1);" to create a new instance of the subfrom, but I also want to have a button that creates a new instance that copies the values of the current instance. (See Below Image, have also provided hierarchy if that helps) Is there a way to have the values copy to the new instance? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I am new to using 'LiveCycle' and have two problems.
1. I cannot get the a drop down list to use an xml data source. I create the data connection, select the appropriate field to bind to but when I test it absolutely no data is displayed. The xml file has 8 fields, all are text and the number of rows modest (78). If I type the items into the list for the drop down then I get a functioning drop down list. However I need to be able to attach and xml data list to the final version.
What I am doing wrong?
2. Having populated that field mentioned above I need to use its value to lookup the other 7 fields from the above mention xml file and display them in text fields to allow the user to edit them.
I have this situation where in I have a data binding from an xml. The xml has an element which is a string and it is bound to a PDF checkbox. However the Checkbox need to be turned on if the xml element has one of 2 values. For all other values it should be turned off.
Below is the xml and the element is GameName
<Game>
<GameName>Soccer</GameName>
<Game>
if GameName = 'Soccer' or 'FieldHockey' the checkbox should be turned "on", otherwise it should be turned "off"
Appreciate your help in advance.
I have created a dynamic form using livecycle 8 and i have added a table so the user can add and delete rows, and the problem i now have is that it will not jump to a new page so i tried to check the Allow Page Breaks Within Content box (which is visable) however it will not let me check the box.
I thought it might be the form however i created a new blank form and created a new table and i have the same problem.
My form would be finiched if i can get this resolved, does anyone have a clue what i can do?
Thanks
Adobe Acrobat XI randomly freezes when filling out form fields in a specific PDF designed by myself in LiveCycle Designer 11.
The Windows Event Log sometimes records the following:
| Error | 11/8/2013 4:09:00 PM | Application Error | 1000 | (100) | "Faulting application name: Acrobat.exe, version: 11.0.4.63, time stamp: 0x52288928 |
Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x98006f09

Faulting module path: unknown
Report Id: fcca7abe-48b9-11e3-b2d4-bc305bfc853b"
This indicates a hard crash, but when I've seen the issue it's the Acrobat window becoming grayed out and unresponsive (in the typical Windows fashion).
The staff member who regularly uses the PDF form indicates he's constantly having to deal with this. I've confirmed the freeze once while shadowing him for the day.
In terms of the PDF itself there's not much special-- four (4) pages filled with a lot of text, drop down and checkboxes, and three buttons that contain short snippets of code that likely never run.
What gives? How does Acrobat crash on such a straightforward PDF?
I get the error below when I insert an image element and try to associate a picture to it by either double clicking it or using the browse button in the Draw palette.
I have looked in my install directory and the "FileSystemBrowser.dll" file is present as well as the "ImageFileBrowserIDL.dll" file, so what gives?
Running LiveCycle ES2 9.0.0.2.20120627.2.874785
Hiya,
I'm testing out Designer ES4 to build a simple form that's submitted via email.
Everything is working except for my text boxes... They are set up as required fields but because I've included default text with instructions, if you press submit without editing the fields they're not validating as empty and not throwing an error message.
I’ve been searching the forums all day for a fix, but I’m too new to understand where to put code etc. I’ve tried adding
'text{!=placeholder}' in the validation pattern box but that doesn’t work…
All I have is LiveCycle Designer and I’m on windows 7. Thanks for your help!
Ok, I am really new to JavaScript and need as much help as I can get.
Ok, here's what I have: I have 10 drop boxes labeled HAZ1-HAZ10. In each drop box the user can choose 1.1 - 1.6. I also have 10 numeric fields labeled NEW1T - NEW10T. These numeric fields multiply the sum of two other fields. I also have a "from" and "to" text fields labeled FROM1 - FROM10 and TO1 - TO10. In these text fields the user can input a building number.
I need to add the NEW fields if the HAZ fields = 1.1 into a "grandTotal 1.1" field and I also need it to tell me if it's going "to" or "from" a particularly building number.
I also need to do the same for 1.2-1.6. Can any one help?
I wonder if someone might be able to assist me with subforms within Adobe LiveCycle designer?
My scenario:
I am in the process of developing a new PDF document this is the first time i have used subforms which contain additional details. I have a pick list box which i have added some script to that says when a particular value is selected open subform however if its not a certain value keep the subform invisible.
for example:
If someone selects the code TXS it will open the subform
If someone selects TRD it will keep the subform invisible.
What I would like to be able to do is continue to add in my fields over the top of this subform so that if someone selects TRD the form continues to flow. However if someone selects TXS to open the additional questions it will move the other fields down a page.
Any help anyone can give would be great!!!
Hi,
I am trying to change the preferences using the Initial View tool in Acrobat. I want to set it to open with bookmarks visible. However, the entire initial view page is disabled for me. The PDF is one that I created myself using LiveCycle Designer ES2. I am using Acrobat Pro X. Why would this functionality be disabled?
Thanks,
Nicole
I'm new to LiveCycle and need help.
I want to create a form in Designer with a submit button that submits the form data back to my Servlet. I see an option on the Designer to enter my submit URL, but where can I specify a parameter to set before the submission? For example, before the submit is processed, I want to set a parameter called "mode" with a value of "pdftest".
If I was doing this on a JSP page, I would just add an onClick javascript event to the button and in the javascript method, I would do something like this:
function processAdobe(theForm) {
theForm['mode'].value = "pdftest";
theForm.submit();
}
Then in my servlet, I could extract this with a call to request.getParameter("mode");
What is the equivalent for setting this up in my .xdp form in Designer?
I want to have all entered text populated into specific text fields to automatically convert to upper case. I am working in LiveCycle Designer ES2.
Hi,
I have a form whith three segments and in which I have several text fileds and a single add button at the end of each segment. I also have a table that is supposed to hold the information of each field into the correspondent cell. User can use each of these segments and even use each of them several time during each request he /she sends and of course alternatively. in order to copy filled inofrmation in differnet cells and row of the table which solution should I use.
As an example the user wants to send request to register two new manager, a new organization unit and three personell transfer.
in the desigend form:
First segments is for new managers and includes it's name and family name and organization unit he wants to manage.
Second segment is for new organization and includes its name, and it's code.
third segment is for persoenll transfer and includes his current and future organization units and his name and family name.
The problem is that each user may act differnetly. one may first fill thh first manager information in the first segment and press add then go to the organization unit segment (2)and fill it and press add button in that segment and then enter three personal transfer in the third segment one by one and press the add butoon each time then he goes abck to the first segment to enter the second manager information.
each of these cases must enter in one row of the table(differnt cells). in this case first manager in first row, then the new org unit in secoond row and so on.
I thought of putting a counter in the form that adds by one each time any of these add buttons are clicked. The problem is then ( for example if we are on the new org unit step when the counter is 2 )how should I tell for examlpe copy the value of the org unit name field to Mth cell of the Nth row of the table ( N is the value of counter). If you can suggest any other solution let me know. By teh way, I don't have good knowledge in writing scripts so please give me clear answer with examples if possible.
Thanks in advance for help.

I have a document that was created using lifecycle es, the document was saved as a static pdf. I am responsible for making documents 508 compliant before being posted to the internet. When I access the document it comes up in adobe pro 9 (which is the version of pdf I have installed). I can run a full accessibility check. I receive an accessibility error that indicates there is no language specified for this document. I normally correct this problem by going to properties and simply selecting English. However with this document the language area, as well as everything else on the page, is grayed out and will not allow me to make the correction. When looking as the security summary "changes to this document" are not allowed. Also I cannot change the reading order in the order panel.
Can anyone tell me if there is anyway to change this or if this is true.
If I cannot update a lifecycle document on the pdf side how do I make the document compliant? My lifecycle is es2, I have seen that es4 has an accessibility checker which I assume would resolve my problem. Does anyone know if ES4 is bought as a separate product, right now I have adobe pro x 9 and it seems lifecylce was part of that package.
Sorry for so many questions but I'm in a real bind.
Thanks
Good morning all,
I have a project I'm working on for the HTML view and I want only one page to be visible, the rest hidden. I have a list of the pages on the side tied to button clicks so as the user clicks the page they want to visit only one is shown. For the first page it works perfectly, but when I click the second button it displays the master page first and then the page I selected right below it. I'm assuming it's some layout property I have to fix with the master page.
Ps my project works just fine in PDF view.
Any help is welcomed, thank you

Is it possible to edit the XML of the Submit button to take data from the filled form and put it into the message body of the email? Like if I had the following field / values:
firstName / John
lastName / Smith
DOB / 1/1/72
email / johnsmith@gmail.com
The message body of the email would look like this:
Name: John Smith
DOB: 1/1/72
Email Address: johnsmith@gmail.com
