Drop down list text value in Livecycle Designer

Posted by Theo van der Sluijs on 13 Nov 2009 in Adobe Interactive Forms | 5 comments

Last week I had to get the chosen item from a drop down list in a PDF Livecycle Designer Form. Easy enough you should think.

But it did not work as I thought it would work.

As you would think the : $.rawValue would get you the item you want. But I did not want to have the item value but the text value.

LAX is a very very sad Airport

Well, today I am going home. Almost 10 days of LA (with Adobe MAX at the beginning) and I saw a lot of Los Angeles, San Diego (well only SeaWord) and Santa Monica.

Now I am at the Los Angeles International Airport and what I see is so sad !

Adobe Max, Last day

Posted by Theo van der Sluijs on 7 Oct 2009 in General | 0 comments

So what have I seen and learned so far ?

Well let’s first talk a bit more about the last day at the Adobe Max converence.

Yep, it was great again ! I have seen stuff that you would like to have right away. Great new Flex features. The AFCS Collaboration in the Cloud system (which are great if you want to write great collaboration tools)

I have seen that Flex Builder…. oh oh… I mean Flash Builder is not due to arrive at your desktop Q1 2010.

I also learned that is is really really very easy to create a PhP datadriven Flex App.

But….. wait there is more !
