Button with JavaScript to add a template page works, but is GREYED out.

[#1]

I've created a button that uses JavaScript to add a template page to the end of our document. The button works, but it is greyed out. I titled the button "Additional Page", but the button is solid grey with no font. I've checked and the fill color is grey and the font color is black.

I'm not sure what to do!! I'm not familiar with JavaScript - found the code online, so detail is appreciated.

This is the code I'm using. var a = this.getTemplate("Page 5");a.spawn();

In Prepare Form Edit mode, the text shows up, but it doesn't in Preview mode.

It's not greyed out. It's just grey... the default color and you probably haven't added a label. Go into the properties again and set a label in the "Options" tab to set the text to be displayed on the button.

Also, do you actually have a template page named "Page 5"?

Oh gosh! Thank you!! I was looking in way too deep. Thank you!! I'll try this out in the am.

Yes, that's the name of my template, and that's what I put in the text box i added (not sure the purpose of the text box).

Based off instructions I found on someone's site:

- I inserted a new file to the end of my document.

- added a text box on the new page (I don't understand this importance of this step, but I did it)

- created a template from the new page, and hid it

- that's when I added the button to a different page that the user can click if they want to view the hidden page
