Coded a Button Properties>Actions>Mouse UP>Run A Javascript>
var g = this.getField("ipaddr").value;
app.launchURL("http://"+g+"/prop.htm", true);
which works but not when executing in Acro Reader. Getting a NotAllowedError: error. I have tried to code app.trustedFunction but do not know the proper coding syntax. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try enabling usage rights in Adobe Reader in the authored PDF document. Click the Advanced option on the Menu bar and you'll find it there.
