George Johnson Mar 9, 2012 7:05 AM (in response to VickiTuch)It should work fine with Acrobat 10, but the toolbar buttons will appear in the custom tools panel instead of the toolbar area until you drag them to the Quick Tools area.

The installation instructions are given on the page you downloaded the zip file from. If you still have trouble, let us know what OS and version of Acrobat you're using.

Tricia Ho Jan 28, 2013 5:04 PM (in response to George Johnson)Hi George,
Thanks for your response. I should have been clearer. I'm using Acrobat X on Mac 10.7.5.
According to the website, Acrobat X isn't supported. However, VickiTuch mentioned that it's possible to install on Acrobat X and I would like to know what steps were taken because I can't seem to find the Javascripts folder.
Cheers,
Trish

George Johnson Jan 28, 2013 5:17 PM (in response to Tricia Ho)It should work fine with Acrobat 10, you just have to copy the .js file to the correct location, which is explained on that page:
On Mac open Applications> Adobe Acrobat 9> [Then right click on] Adobe Acrobat.app and select "Show Package Contents". In Contents> MacOS> JavaScripts
But substitute "9" for whatever it is for 10.

Tricia Ho Jan 28, 2013 5:36 PM (in response to George Johnson)Hi George,
That's where I got stumped as there isn't a folder called "Javascripts" in the Mac OS folder. There's only Preferences and Updater. I'm not sure where to place the .js file.
Any suggestions?

Phillip Jones Jan 28, 2013 6:07 PM (in response to Tricia Ho)You mis \read his instructions
Hold down the Control key and Click on the Acrobat Application
Now choose open package contents.
Now carefully Locate javascript folder don't touch anything else.
Now follow his instruction
Its not in the OS Folder. Its within the actual Acrobat application.
Here is a Movie with basic steps I've edited to cut out unnecessary stuff.
http://www.screencast.com/t/UGWdujPaw
I want to caution anyone messing with Package contenst to duplicate the application. do the changes on the duplicate. Then movie the original to a temporay foler. The substitue and rename (remove the word Copy) The open and see if it works. one little misstep and you can screw up the application big time. So you need to back up the original in case things go bump. messing with package contents is not for the faint of heart. You have to have steady nerves and a good heart.

Tricia Ho Jan 28, 2013 6:16 PM (in response to Phillip Jones)Hi Phillip,
Thank you so much! That's exactly what I needed. I know I need to be very careful when accessing the package contents, which is why I came to the forums looking for advice when I couldn't see the "Javascript" folder.

14. Re: Javascript pop up calendar
jagsmith Nov 6, 2014 4:32 AM (in response to VickiTuch)Has anyone noticed the form router pop up calendar doesn't have a 31st August?! It then skips a day on September, so it catches up with itself... I can't find a way to fix this. Frustrating!

15. Re: Javascript pop up calendar
GKaiseril Nov 6, 2014 11:18 AM (in response to jagsmith)That is because the number of days for August in the script is wrong.
For a form one needs to edit the document level script "FRCalendarClass" and change the code about line 313 from:
case 8: //"August":
numDays = 30;
break;
to:
case 8: //"August":
numDays = 31;
break;
A similar change to the folder level script need to be made so any new uses of this tool will provide the correct data for August.
