    Need jump start in creating editable PDF

    Hi, I am trying to figure out how to make a simple editable PDF but think I may be overcomplicating it? I really don't need to create a "form" per se, I am trying to create a card or stationery item in PDF format, so people can enter their own information in, then print out. I have been using...

    Getting metadata through DBI

    I sent this to the DBI mailing list: -------------------------------------------------- "I've just gone through the program shown in the O'Reilly DBI on page 149, or, the $dbh->table_info() query. What that doesn't grab, but I would really like to capture, is the kind of "Type&quot...

    MSIE only prints/print-previews the first page ...

    Has anyone ever seen this effect? Something about our site's web pages causes MSIE to correctly print, and print-preview, the first page. But the remainder comes up blank. I've put the (admittedly complicated) page through NetMechanic, DreamWeaver, etc., to see if I can't get it more to MSIE's...

    Where can I learn more about DATE and TIME functions??

    I'm new to mySQL and trying to convert a fairly complex program to it. Most of my tables have an unofficial key which is a timestamp stored as DATETIME, to keep it static. I would like to take some of my longer, more elaborate perl time-handling functions and use the mySQL built-in ones...

    Pop-up possible from onSubmit?

    I have one more question I may as well add now. Assuming I *can* somehow call a pop-up window this way, is it then possible to make the child window force the parent window to "refresh" or "reload" through the window.opener syntax? What would be a typical way to approach...

    Pop-up possible from onSubmit?

    I'm trying to do something simple(?) -- make a CGI response screen appear in a pop-up window when I submit a particular form. My fumbling attempts to do this through onSubmit have gone nowhere. Is it possible to code a form so that your CGI's reply appears in a pop-up? Or should I scrap the...

    pages from template won't accept titles

    I'm using DreamWeaver 3.0 on NT. Every tip or guide I can find says that page titles should be editable, even when you create your page from templates. However, mine are not. No matter how I attempt to change them (in the source, or from Page Properties), they revert to Untitled as soon as I...

    Dynamically assigned var to control a form element?

    Hi, all -- in my bumbling way, I seem to have figured out the problem ... but I'm still interested in whether O'Reilly is considered the best JS reference book.<br><br>Thanks!<br>- blake

    Dynamically assigned var to control a form element?

    Hey, guess what? I'm stuck again! My script works beautifully in MSIE now, and I only just noticed that Netscape rejects it. Does anyone know why? This is the header script:<br><br>====================================================<br>&lt;SCRIPT...

    Dynamically assigned var to control a form element?

    Hi, all -- I program in perl but never warmed up to Javascript. Therefore, I'm stumped about:<br><br>How do I control a form element when I'm naming the element dynamically? My page has eleven separate, similar forms. One, for example, is Engineering. I want to tell Javascript to call function...
