I have a java script that I use to submit a form to 2 different addresses depending on a certain field.
But when it send the form it sends as an FDF not a PDF; I need it sent as a PDF.
How do I ensure it is sent as a PDF not an FDF?
I am an absolute novice at java script so any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance

var addr= "";
if (this.getfield("DropDown1").value=="Yes")
{
addr="1stmaillist@whatever";
}
else
{
addr="2ndmaillist@whatever";
}
This.submitform("Mailto:" + addr);
No, do it like this:
this.submitForm({cURL: "mailto:" + addr, cSubmitAs: "PDF"});

Specify this with the parameter cSubmitAs. Look at the documentation of the method submitForm.

Thank you Bernd Alheit for the assistance. So do I change it to;
this.cSubmitAs(PDF,"Mailto:" + addr);
or something else??

Use this.submitForm with the parameter cSubmitAs.

You also have multiple other errors in your code related to lower/upper-case letters, so I assume you re-typed it instead of copying and pasting it, as the code you posted will not work at all.

Yes try67 I re-typed it (I am awful at spelling with a capital O). the original code worked but the attachment it created to mail was an FDF not a PDF. But thank you for your assistance
