JavaScript Button in PDF to attach form in draft email.

[borin_southernr24415334]

I have the following code but it is not creating a draft when you click on it. What is wrong?

var subject= getField("Part Number").value + (" \ ") + getField("Material Number").value + getField("Priority").value

this.mailDoc({

cTo: "email1@email.com",

cCC: "Email@email.com",

cSubject: subject,

cMsg: "This is a DORF Request please provide a response in a timely fashion."

});

Change the name of the "subject" variable to something else, like

"mySubject". "subject" is one of the document's built-in properties, so you

might be accidentally trying to write to it.

This is what it looks like but It is now leaving subject line blank.

var Mysubject= getField("Part Number").value + (" \ ") + getField("Material Number").value + getField("Priority").value

this.mailDoc({

cTo: "email1@email.com",

cCC: "Email@email.com",

cSubject: Mysubject,

cMsg: "This is a DORF Request please provide a response in a timely fashion."

});

Are there any error messages in the JS Console?

If you want to include a back-slash in the text you need to escape it. So change this:

(" \ ")

To:

"\\"

There's no need to use parentheses.

Now the subject is only showing (in the Draft):  \\

Script look like this:

var Mysubject= getField("Priority").value + "\\" + getField("Material Number").value + "\\" + getField("Part Number").value

this.mailDoc({

cTo: "email1@email.com",

cCC: "Email@email.com",

cSubject: Mysubject,

cMsg: "This is a DORF Request please provide a response in a timely fashion."

});

I'll need to see the file itself to be able to help you further.

You can share it via Dropbox, Google Drive, etc., or if you want you can send it to me via email (try6767 at gmail.com).
