Adobe form - javascript 'error opening url"

I am getting this error in Adobe after struggling with a 'submit'
button on an acrobat form that is in production and all the other
appdev people in the office are NOT having a problem with. It submits
the form to the web successfully for them, for me the button just
clicks and does nothing. So we turned on my javascript debug in Adobe
and are getting this?

Acrobat EScript Built-in Functions Version 6.0
Acrobat Annotations / Collaboration Built-in Functions Version 6.0
Acrobat Database Connectivity Built-in Functions Version 6.0
Acrobat Multimedia Version 6.0

RaiseError: Error opening URL to submit this form
Global.submitFo rm:59:Field Submit:Mouse Up
===Error opening URL to submit this form

(repeated 4 times)

Any ideas? We've tried everything short of cramming a cold pancake
into the CD drive. Internet security settings, reloading Adobe
Professional, etc. Thanks!

Here she be. This thing seems to work for everybody in the world
except me so there must be a glitch on my machine somewhere, we also
tried uninstalling all Java software on my machine and reinstalling
latest Java IE platform from java.com and we still get the same error,
though now at least the error reporting is slightly better. I'm
supposed to be the web developer here (that's a laugh!) but mine is the
only machine having the problem.
It's telling me It's blowing on the this.submitForm . thanks!

if ( this.getField(" LastName").valu e == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your Last Name.");
this.getField(" LastName").setF ocus();
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" FirstName").val ue == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your First Name.");
this.getField(" FirstName").set Focus();
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" SSN").value == "" &&
this.getField(" casenum").value == "" )
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Either Your Social Security Number
or a Case Number.");
this.getField(" SSN").setFocus( );
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" address").value == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your Address.");
this.getField(" address").setFo cus();
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" city").value == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your City.");
this.getField(" city").setFocus ();
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" state").value == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your State.");
this.getField(" state").setFocu s();
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" zip").value == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter Your 5 Digit Zip
Code.");
this.getField(" zip").setFocus( );
}
else
{
if ( this.getField(" txtdesc").value == "")
{
app.alert("Plea se Enter a Explanation
or Description of your Inquiry/Dispute Concerns.");
this.getField(" txtdesc").setFo cus();
}
else
{
this.submitForm ("/Programs/Forms/modIDS_form_PDF .asp?flashdone= 1",false);
this.resetForm( );
getURL("/Programs/Forms/forms.asp?mod=1 &flashdone=1 ", false);
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}

Also I downloaded Firefox, and the script runs fine using that. Just
not in IE (IE6).
thanks

Hello, I have bumped upon this problem: I do some client-side form processing with JavaScript, and for this I loop over all the forms in the document. In order to identify them, I read their "name" property (which sources from "name" HTML attribue). The problem is, that if the form contains form control named "name", it overwrites the form name property. In fact, I'm quite surprised that it's so easy to spoil any of the form object...

Hi, I have a custom object called gridWidget. I am consistantly getting an error in FireFox when I click on an href, which calls a function defined on the object. The generated link looks similar to: javascript:gridWidget.editColumn(3, 3, 'PDDSectionForm', 'pdd_link', ..) The above works fine in IE.
