Question

Have to click submit button multiple times on PDF

Not sure if this is the right group so I'll start here.

I have a PDF form I created in LiveCycle that I'm submitting as a PDF to a ColdFusion processing page. The PDF has a basic button that executes the submit. The problem is that when the PDF is rendered in a browswer window, you have to click the submit button multiple times before it actually submits. This happens both when the form is in an iframe and also when it takes up the entire browser window. Any ideas why this would be the case? If this should be posted in another forum please let me know.

Thanks...

    What is the indication you have that the form is not being submitted when you select the button just once?  Did you check your http log?

    Whenever a PDF is successfully submitted, you see the loading incidator in the browser. Other times, when it doesn't submit, you get nothing... Does this make sense?

    It makes sense, but it's not a reliable indicator.  This site is a good example.  It's slow, and doesn't always immediately display anything in the status bar.
