InfoPath Dev

Sorry if this is the wrong forum but my desperation has driven me to here! Is it possible to trap the save event in a web browser form? It doesn't look like it is. All I want to do is automatically set the filename (and preferably not show the save dialog!) I've been looking for the last few days but it seems to be impossible. I ...

Yes that's what I found. I got this answer too in a different Forum. it is a known bug with the Rich Text Box control. On older versions of IE and on WebKit (Chrome/Safari), the JavaScript that saves the content for the Rich Text Control to the underlying control that SharePoint retrieves its data from on submit doesn't trigger until you ...

Hi Jim, Thanks much for letting me know. I will try out your suggest and shall see what it does. Thanks much for helping - Reema

Hi Hilary, Thanks much for responding. Yes, I have tried on the SharePoint Configuration, Administration and programming forums but I will also try on SharePoint Stack Exchange. Thanks much for the suggestion Best Regards, Reema

Anson! thanks for the interesting approach. i actually managed to do something like you told me.. ended up like this concat(xdMath:Eval(xdMath:Eval(../../../my:Participants/pc:Person, 'concat(pc:DisplayName, "; ")'), ".."), "New Person Name")  it ended up adding the people i needed it to add so it does ...

Hi there, Unfortunately I don't believe there is an easy way of doing this.  If Form A is going to be in multiple forms I would recommend that you make that into a Template Part, but you would have to create that from scratch I believe.  Perhaps someone else out there has a better idea?  Sorry couldn't be more help :(

Hi there, I think what you are trying to do will be pretty difficult to do out of the box because of the way people picker schema works.  Each person is stored in a separate instance of a repeating field. So if you want to add another person you would have to add another node to that repeating field which you cannot do in InfoPath without ...

Hi there, Sounds like you want to populate a dropdown control from some secondary data source?  If so, here is an article/video that may help you get started:  http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/infopath-help/demo-populate-a-drop-down-list-box-from-a-sharepoint-list-HA010254912.aspx Good luck!

Hi there, I believe there are some known issues with Chrome and Safari with the rich text box control.  Chrome was fairly new at the time 2010 came out, so there may be issues there.  And IE 6 is not supported in 2010.  I believe the main issue lies within the ribbon.  A workaround you can try is to remove the ribbon from your ...

InfoPath will produce an error like that if you try to add an XML node to the main data source that is not defined in the schema.  This has nothing to do with xsi:nil. If you're looking to set and retrieve metadata properties to arbitrary fields, perhaps the SetNamedNodeProperty/GetNamedNodeProperty API is the way to ...
