I need a simple script to submit 1 textfield only instead of e-mailing the whole pdf.
I just want a textfield named example: Comments
the text to be submitted to a e-mail address.
how to do this?

tnx for the code.
only he submits the whole formfields from the pdf as xml.
so only 1 field that i want be submitted is not working...
mayb the afields:["Comments"] need to be phrased differently?
i just want the comments text field to be submitted.
hmm how to change the script to make it really work?

Thom made a typo, it should be:
You can also use the FDF format, but not XML. See that Acrobat JavaScript reference for more information.

this.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:<span class="spamspan"><span class="u">me</span> [at] <span class="d">my [dot] com</span></span>", aFields:["Comments"], cSubmitAs:"XFDF"});You can also use the FDF format, but not XML. See that Acrobat JavaScript reference for more information.

The "submitForm()" function submits formatted data. But if all you want is to email a single value then you could send a simple email.
