Hello Johannes,

Moin Patrick, [...]

I ran the latest ConTeXt on your test document and looked at it with acrobat reader 5 on MacOS X and everything was fine.

How do you open your document in Acrobat Reader?

I type "acroread example.pdf" on the shell. [...]

What version of the reader are you using?

- Opening the document from Acrobat Reader doesn't make a difference.

- The mwidget-s.pdf document itself works fine.

Opening with Acrobat Reader 5.0 for Windows works fine. -- Johannes Hüsing There is something fascinating about science. One gets hannes@ruhrau.de such wholesale returns of conjecture from such a trifling investment of fact. Mark Twain

the JavaScript implementation differs from version to version. I don't have AR 4 here, so I can't test it. Hans has a good overview about JS and AR.

I don't know what openactions are default, but try these two:

\setupinteraction[state=start,openaction=] \setupinteraction[state=start,openaction=ResetForm]

in most cases i leave openaction empty (or sometimes something openaction=page(2) or so); the ResetForm is/was sometimes needed if you want to make sure that widgets are initialized (there is some fuzzy async initialization in acrobat, imagine that you access page 4 while acrobat in the background is still initializing form fields as well as the javascript engine while page 4 has some fields on it that are related to fields somewhere else in the document) Hans
