Problem creating Interactive PDF in InDesign

I'm trying to create Interactive PDF using InDesign, but I'm running into couple of issues.

When I'm exporting this design  file as Interactive PDF, I'm not able to see this table in the exported PDF. I checked the layers panel and everything looks okay (even asked perplexity for help). 


I've attached all relevant screenshots. Can someone please help me understand what I'm doing wrong?

You need to show us the resultant PDF, not just a screenshot.

 

But that's a text field. Are you expecting people to fill out three choices in one field? Finally, where you looking at this? In Acrobat? A third party PDF Reader?

I'm checking it in the Acrobat. Its a 3 different text field and I expect people to add the information.

I don't think so I understood it clearly, as I just started learning InDesign, but I'll check out some YT videos. However, thank you for your help


I am telling you, it's the only explanation. I tried it myself before posting that.

Be careful with the Youtube stuff. There's a lot of absolute rubbish out there.
