Follow up tutorial to Master Page Basics demonstrating more advanced features such as: custom page sizes, header objects that reference form data, and form flow to specific master pages.

Code placed in the ready :  layout event of “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtCustomer” & “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtSSN” fields of Master Page 2:
this.rawValue = FORM.Main.txtCustomer.rawValue;

Modified code used in the “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtSSN” field to carry over the SSN formatting from the Main page:
this.rawValue = FORM.Main.txtSSN.formattedValue;

This tutorial demonstrates my method of avoiding the use of JavaScript popups in LiveCycle forms when the form requires special user input that a popup window would normally be used.

This method arose out of my frustration with the “Warning: JavaScript Window” message that Adobe doesn’t allow to be removed from popups called using the xfa.host.messageBox method.

In this tutorial I seek to bring together many of the ideas presented in other “Basic” tutorials.  The goal being to show how all of these simple elements can be brought together to create a rich user experience in your Forms.

This tutorial covers the basics of the LiveCycle script editor.

This video is a response to a question I received from a YouTube subscriber.
