Forms Pagination - form incomplete in repository

Forms

Updated January 27, 2015

asked on January 26, 2015

I used the example from last year's Empower 2014 BPM251 course to implement pagination on my form and I have a late breaking issue.

First, when I submit the form it shows only the first tab even though all tabs are displayed when the user reaches the final page with the submit button.

Second, is it possible to recover the submitted form from my Forms server or will users that submitted information with the bugged java script have to resubmit?

Thanks!

I ran into this and several other problems with using Javascript to hide sections. I was shown a pretty quick solution which is to create a copy of the form, then remove all javascript from the copy. Then in your save to repository task switch to the copy of your form. All fields will contain the same information filled out on the original form since they are a copy of the same variables. To copy the form just click the button next to the trash can that looks like two pages.

Remember anyone who want's to edit the form in the future needs to know how to make a new copy and update the process though.

Thank you for the workaround Chad.

Is there a way to recover the missing image data from submissions made before I implemented the copy form workaround?

The history of submitted forms is under Manage, find the relevant process, click Results button. You can't resubmit from here, but at least you can see what the form looked like when the user clicked submit.
