I remember reading about this somewhere; but I took no interest in it, as it didn't seem to me to be a capability that would survive. The complete description of it eludes me now, after several Google searches. Anyway, if this was the "hack" to which you referred, please accept my apology for misinterpreting your response above in the previous reply. Surely, we can agree that PDF files can include a "submit" action without said action being considered a "hack". AFAIK, Acrobat and Adobe Reader support "submit" actions in versions 7 and 8. Even though the data formats continue to evolve, the ability to "submit" the form data is a fundamental capability of a PDF form.
