Hi
I'm trying to get values of some specific form fields and then generate a XML file based on that data using JS actions when a user clicks a button. It's possible to get those values but I'm not sure how to generate that xml and provided to the user. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Try this attached file and the action wizard included (not possible to save the xml file from the button).

Script:

var spans=this.getField("text1").richValue;
var str=util.spansToXML(spans);
this.createDataObject("theFile.xml",str);
var spans=util.xmlToSpans(str);
this.getField("text2").richValue=spans;
this.getField("text3").value=str;
this.exportDataObject("theFile.xml");
