Read Only

[Edward Mcallister]

I am a little stuck on a problem. I have a repeatable table using the addInstance and when the form is completed it needs to be saved. In that save button I also want to change the repeatable table to be read only. This works for the first table but all subsequent additions are open access. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Ed

hey Ed. so for saving form just reader extend it for save rights. you can use a script on button click that can lock the fields. i can send you the button code and sample later.

Thanks Adam,

I do extend it as I also have Acrobat Pro and I use .access="readOnly" to lock the fields, but it only locks the first set, not the additions. Looking forward to seeing the script.

Thanks

Ed

Hey Ed,

Make the containing subform read only and all of its children will also be read only.

Ed, use the below script on the click event on a button (in LiveCycle - Javascript) and it should do the trick. sorry it took a while to get back to you, very busy with work. Let me know if it works!

function lockFields(oNode) {  
     if (oNode.className === "field" || oNode.className === "subform") {  
          if (oNode.access != "protected") {  
               oNode.access = "protected";  
            }  
          if (oNode.className === "field" && oNode.ui) {  
               if (oNode.ui.oneOfChild.className === "button") {  
                    oNode.presence = "invisible";  
               }  
          }  
     }  
     for (var i = 0; i < oNode.nodes.length; i += 1) {  
         lockFields(oNode.nodes.item(i));  
     }  
  };  
   
lockFields(xfa.form);
