My script worked fine when I tested it with Adobe Pro. It is only in Adobe Reader X that it crashes and closes the app.
In LiveCycle ES version 8.2, I added JavaScript to do the following in the preSubmit event of a hidden Submit button:
var currentDoc = event.target;
var path = currentDoc.path;
execMenuItem("SaveAs",currentDoc);
var newPath = currentDoc.path;
if (path != newPath){
//re-open the original document (blank form)
app.openDoc({cPath:path});
}
//stop the submit event
xfa.event.cancelAction = true;
//close the current document (completed form)
if (currentDoc.disclosed = true){
currentDoc.closeDoc();
}
From the JavaScript API documentation, I learned that the document has to have the disclosed property set to true to be available to other open documents. I am doing this by calling a document-level function in the form1.docReady event, which I have verified is running when the document opens. The original document is being opened, the saved document is being closed, but when the "Submit Cancelled" dialog box appears and I click "OK", I get this error:
The instruction at "0xsomething" references memory at "0x00000010". The instruction could not be "read".
And whether I hit "Cancel" or "OK", the reader closes. If I comment out the cancelAction, the same thing happens, only without the Submit Cancelled dialog. So it must be the Doc.closeDoc that is doing it. I have also tried putting the code in the postSubmit and setting a timeout, but in those cases the close never happened at all.
