Hello all,
Recently, I am using the Adobe LiveCycle to create a form with a countdown. I keep receiving a error of "App is undefined" under the Log tab in report window.
Great if someone can give me some clue on this as my colleague has left a sample for me and it works well. I just copy his code to a new file to try to replicate the result but did not work.
Thanks,
Oli
The code is as below:
*************************************************
timer_test::ready:form - (JavaScript, client)
xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown.value = "90";
var second = 1000;
timer_test.page_01.timer_text.rawValue = xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown.value;
dummy = app.setInterval("xfa.form.timer_test.variables.timer.DoTimers()", second);
timer_test.#variables[0].timer - (JavaScript, client)
function ClockProc(nCurTime)
{
xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown = String(Number(xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown.value)-1);
if (Number(xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown.value) <= 0)
{
timer_test.page_01.timer_text.rawValue = "time out";
timer_test.page_01.timer_text.font.fill.color.value = "255,0,0";
}
else
{
timer_test.page_01.timer_text.rawValue = xfa.form.timer_test.variables.countdown.value;
}
}
function DoTimers()
{
ClockProc();
}

Thanks George,
Have tried and search the supporting doc. There is no setInterval property for the xfa.host object.
Much appreciate for your help.
The most interested thing is I actually have two files, one works (prepared by my colleague) and the other one not works. But the content inside is almost the same as what I can see from the designer view. Is there any way I can upload the file for comment?
May I missed something on the Form Properties setup.

Hi,
you really have to use app.setInterval for your purpose.
To reference the function in your script object, you have to give the whole expression of your script object to the setInterval function.
In XFA forms, it's a more verbose than in AcroForms.
It always starts with this.xfa.form followed by the names of the nodes top down in your forms hierarchy.
