That was a problem with Designer forms and there's no solution. It will work correctly with acro forms, though.

Hello all ... I was unable to find any activity on this issue for almost a year (the last post was from July 2007), so I apologize if there is a solution to this. Could someone please reply with a pointer to it if there is? I am working to create a website that allows users to fill in a PDF form and submit it for printing as part of a larger printing order. My task flow is like this: * User selects a "kit" which includes some number of PDF forms. * User selects each form which needs to be filled out. I pull each from a repository, add a "Submit" button, and present to the user. * User fills out the form, and clicks the submit button. - Behind the scenes, the submitted parameter map is stored for later processing. * Once everything is filled out, the entire order gets submitted for printing and mailing. - Prior to submission for printing, the keyed data is merged back into the blank form pulled from the repository and the resulting PDF is flattened. All of this works perfectly. The problem is that the user needs to be able to go back into a previously completed form to change, add, or remove data, prior to final submission. This is where the problem comes in. On any form that contains Radio buttons, the ugly "Expected a name object" appears unless all of the radio buttons are touched before clicking "submit". No radio buttons, no problem. I have no control over the creation of the PDFs stored in the repository. The process is designed, in theory, to not care about the specific details of each PDF. As long as each has a blank space where the process can put its Submit button, no other knowledge (at least on the surface) should be necessary to make this happen. Any assistance is greatly appreciated! Steve Weber ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
