This is my first attempt to prepare a dynamic pdf form in livecycle designer es4. In this form, there is an option to add and view attachment. As I have little experience in javascript coding, I went to the adobe forum and found a very good example here. I have done some changes in original code to run in my form. I can attach file successfully with this code. But my problem is that when I want to open file attachment in Acrobat Pro XI, it is showing below error instead of opening the file. This error is showing independent of file attachment type (e.g. .doc, .jpg, .txt and .pdf file).error image. Here is screenshot of security of Acrobat Pro XIscreenshot 1 screenshot 2 and file linkhere.
Below code is written in the form-
//Code for add button
// Get Import Name
var cName = AttachName.rawValue;
// Test for empty value
if(!/^\s*$/.test(cName))
{// Do Import
try{
var bRtn = event.target.importDataObject(cName);
if(bRtn)
{
var cDesc = AttachDesc.rawValue;
if(!/^\s*$/.test(cName))
{
var oAtt = event.target.getDataObject(cName);
oAtt.description = cDesc;
}
app.alert("File Attachment Successfully Imported",3);
}
else
app.alert("Unable to import File Attachment",0);
}catch(e){
app.alert("An Error Occured while Importing the File Attachment:\n\n" + e);
}
}
else
app.alert("Attachment name must be non-empty");
//code for populating dropdown list
this.rawValue = null;
this.clearItems();
var a = event.target.dataObjects;
if (a !== null) {
for (var i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
this.addItem(a[i].name);
}
}
//code for open attachment button
var cName = AttachNameSel.rawValue;
//var nAction = ExportAction.rawValue;
try{
event.target.exportDataObject({cName:cName, nLaunch:2});
} catch(e) {
app.alert("An Error Occured while Exporting the File Attachment: " + cName + "\n\n" + e);
}
Any help from anyone in the community would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi I am developing one application in java-script. I have two pages default.aspx and addnewitem.aspx. there is one html table in default.aspx and one button. When i click on button i want to redirect to addnewitem.aspx page. I have some parameters to send in query string. I am able to redirect to addnewitem.aspx but page not found error i am getting. I am not sure why i am getting page not found error. I am trying as below.
function getValues() {
var Title = "dfd";
var PrimarySkills = "fdfd";
var SecondarySkills = "dfdf";
var url = "http://sites/APPSTEST/JobRequisitionApp/Pages/AddNewItem.aspx?Title=" + encodeURIComponent($(Title)) + "&PrimarySkills=" + encodeURIComponent($(PrimarySkills)) + "&SecondarySkills=" + encodeURIComponent($(SecondarySkills));
window.location.href = url;
}
I am checking querystring in addnewitem.aspx as below.
<script type="text/javascript">
var queryString = new Array();
$(function () {
if (queryString.length == 0) {
if (window.location.search.split('?').length > 1) {
var params = window.location.search.split('?')[1].split('&');
for (var i = 0; i < params.length; i++) {
var key = params[i].split('=')[0];
var value = decodeURIComponent(params[i].split('=')[1]);
queryString[key] = value;
}
}
}
if (queryString["Title"] != null && queryString["PrimarySkills"] != null) {
var data = "<u>Values from QueryString</u><br /><br />";
data += "<b>Title:</b> " + queryString["Title"] + " <b>PrimarySkills:</b> " + queryString["PrimarySkills"] + " <b>SecondarySkills:</b> " + queryString["SecondarySkills"];
$("#lblData").html(data);
alert(data);
}
});
</script>
"http://sites/APPSTEST/JobRequisitionApp/Pages/AddNewItem.aspx?Title=%5Bobject%20Object%5D&PrimarySkills=%5Bobject%20Object%5D&SecondarySkills=%5Bobject%20Object%5D"
I tried lot to fix this. May i know where i am doing wrong? Thanks for your help.
You should use the relative path in your url instead of hard coding the entire folder structure, which is probably incorrect since you are getting a 404. And you need to change the url every time you publish the site to the hosting enviroment when you hard code it like that.
So change
var url = "http://sites/APPSTEST/JobRequisitionApp/Pages/AddNewItem.aspx?Title=...
into
var url = "/AddNewItem.aspx?Title=...
if both the pages are in the same folder. Should AddNewItem.aspx be located in the Pages folder, you have to add that folder of course: var url = "/Pages/AddNewItem.aspx?Title=...
My current script uses the code below to download a CSV file to local drive,
function table2CSV() {
var dataURL = '',
fieldSeparator = ',',
textField = '"',
lineSeparator = '\n',
regExpTesto = /(")/g,
regExp = /[";]/;
$('table tr').each(function() {
var dataRow = '';
if ($('input:checkbox', this).is(':checked') || $(this).is(':first- child'))
{
$('td', this).not(':last').each(function() {
var value = $(this).text();
if (dataRow !== '') dataRow += fieldSeparator;
if (regExp.test(value)) {
value = textField + value.replace(regExpTesto, '$1$1') + textField;
}
dataRow += value;
});
if (dataURL !== '') dataURL += lineSeparator;
dataURL += dataRow;
}
});
window.location.href = 'data:text/csv;charset=utf-8;base64,' + btoa(dataURL);
}
The download is done bye this line as far as I can tell :
window.location.href = 'data:text/csv;charset=utf-8;base64,' + btoa(dataURL);
I would like to be able to have it download(upload/saved) to a shared google drive folder instead.
I have seen similar questions on the forum but can't seem to see how to point the download to a shared google-drive folder.
What must code must be added/changed in order to achieve this ?
Thank you
EDIT: Nevermind, just realised they say it does not support data URIs:
Data URIs and file:// URLs are not supported
I will keep this answer in case anyone else searches for non-data URI uploading
Having a quick look, I came upon Save to Drive
While this might not be exactly what you want, it looks like an easy way to add the ability to save the contents of any URI (hopefully a data URI too) to Google Drive, like so:
<script src="https://apis.google.com/js/platform.js" async defer></script>
<div class="g-savetodrive"
data-src="//example.com/path/to/myfile.pdf"
data-filename="My Statement.pdf"
data-sitename="My Company Name">
</div>
Is there a way to save the current webpage by using casperjs or phantomjs?
I tried to get the html and save it into a file. But the resulting file was a lot different from the screenshot of that time (with casper.capture). Is there a way to save the current webpage?
Andrey Borisko suggested to use the disk cache to retrieve the resources. My solution is not that efficient, but you don't need to decompress text files.
I use XMLHttpRequest to retrieve all resources after I registered them with the resource.received event handler. I then filter the resources into images, css and fonts. The current limitation is that remote resource paths that contain something like ../ or ./ are not handled correctly.
I retrieve the current page content with getHTML and iterate over all captured resources to replace the path used in the markup, that is identified by a portion of the complete resource URL, with a randomly generated file name. The file extension is created from the content type of the resource. It is converted using mimeType from this gist.
Since CSS files may contain background images or fonts, they have to be processed before saving to disk. The provided loadResource function loads the resource, but does not save it.
Since XMLHttpRequest to download the resources the script has to be invoked with the --web-security=false flag:
casperjs script.js --web-security=false
script.js
var casper = require("casper").create();
var utils = require('utils');
var fs = require('fs');
var mimetype = require('./mimetype'); // URL provided below
var cssResources = [];
var imgResources = [];
var fontResources = [];
var resourceDirectory = "resources";
var debug = false;
fs.removeTree(resourceDirectory);
casper.on("remote.message", function(msg){
this.echo("remote.msg: " + msg);
});
casper.on("resource.error", function(resourceError){
this.echo("res.err: " + JSON.stringify(resourceError));
});
casper.on("page.error", function(pageError){
this.echo("page.err: " + JSON.stringify(pageError));
});
casper.on("downloaded.file", function(targetPath){
if (debug) this.echo("dl.file: " + targetPath);
});
casper.on("resource.received", function(resource){
// don't try to download data:* URI and only use stage == "end"
if (resource.url.indexOf("data:") != 0 && resource.stage == "end") {
if (resource.contentType == "text/css") {
cssResources.push({obj: resource, file: false});
}
if (resource.contentType.indexOf("image/") == 0) {
imgResources.push({obj: resource, file: false});
}
if (resource.contentType.indexOf("application/x-font-") == 0) {
fontResources.push({obj: resource, file: false});
}
}
});
// based on http://docs.casperjs.org/en/latest/modules/casper.html#download
casper.loadResource = function loadResource(url, method, data) {
"use strict";
this.checkStarted();
var cu = require('clientutils').create(utils.mergeObjects({}, this.options));
return cu.decode(this.base64encode(url, method, data));

// TODO: remove all event handlers in html
var page = this.getHTML();

}
casper.start("http://www.themarysue.com/").wait(3000).then(capturePage).run(function(){
this.echo("DONE");
this.exit();
});
The magic happens in findAndReplace. capturePage is completely synchronous so it can be dropped anywhere without much head ache.
URL for mimetype.js
No, I don't think there is an easy way to do this as phantomjs doesn't support rendering pages in mht format (Render as a .mht file #10117). I believe that's what you wanted.
So, it needs some work to accomplish this. I did something similar, but i was doing it the other way around I had a rendered html code that I was rendering into image/pdf through phantomjs. I had to clean the file first and it worked fine for me.
So, what I think you need to do is:
strip all js calls, like script tags or onload attributes, etc..
if you have access from local to the resources like css, images and so on (and you don't need authentication to that domain where you grab the page) than you need to change relative paths of src attributes to absolute to load images/etc.
if you don't have access to the resources when you open the page then I think you need to implement similar script to download those resources at the time phantomjs loads the page and then redirect src attributes to that folder or maybe use data uri.
You might need to change links in css files as well.
This will bring up the images\fonts and styling you are missing currently.
I'm sure there are more points. I'll update the answer if you need more info, once I see my code.
I keep on having "ACCESS DENIED" after hitting my download button.
I already have full control on the specified folder.
I use this in jquery.
function DownloadFile(ProductNumber, File)
{
var windowSizeArray = ["width=400,height=400",
"width=500,height=600,scrollbars=yes"];
File = "C:/Documents and Settings/My PC/My Documents/" + File;
if (File != "")
{
var windowName = "popUp";
var windowSize = windowSizeArray[$(this).attr("rel")];
var exist = isExists(File);
if (exist)
{
window.open(File, windowName, windowSize);
}
else
{
ShowAlertMessage("The file for Product no. <a href='" + File + "' target='blank'>" + ProductNumber+ "</a> does not exist.");
}
}
else
{
ShowAlertMessage("No PDF file for Product no: " + ProductNumber+ ".");
}
}
You can't access local files like you do in your snippet.
You have to upload the file to the server and use PHP/another serverside language to do that. jQuery (or Javascript) only runs in the browser and does not have access to files outside it. Serverside web-languages only have access to files located on the server (or other servers using get_file_contents or cURL).
Your code looks like a C#/Java-source. They can access these local files.
