Save pdf file to folder on click submit button

[Former Member]

Hi,

Does anyone knows how to save a currently open pdf file to a specific directory folder when the submit button is clicked? Is it possible to be done using javascript or formcalc?

Thanks,

Cindy

Hi Cindy,

Do you mean saving the file on the server or on the client machine?

On the server it's pretty easy with Java to save the context element that represents the PDF file.

I doubt it can be done locally, having Javascript able to write to a client machine would obviously be a security issue.

You can supply a link with a FileDownload UI element bound to the PDF context if that helps.
