It works or at least I managed to type some text into the text box.  I made a 
couple of changes to the text which I think makes it a bit more idiomatic in 
English (see attached.  I hope you don't mind.

I spent what seemed like forever installing the blasted  insdljs.sty and it 
worked.  

For those having the same problem in Ubuntu  I 
1) created a texmf folder at root level following these directions 
http://nmv.stat.cmu.edu/2012/06/14/managing-latex-packages-manually-in-ubuntu-12-04/

and then following instructions from 
http://www.latex-community.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8886

2. cd'd to the texmf/tex/latex/acrotex directory 
3. ran sudo texhash 
4 ran  latex acrotex.ins
Reconfigured LyX and everything ran nicely.

Subject: Creating pdf forms template
 

 
Hello Lyxers!
 
In the lasts days I was learning how to create PDF 
forms using LyX. But this process require a few javascript knowledge. I´ve 
tried 
my best to translate to english the attached template (an improvement of 
previous in spanish) in which you will see that objects are actually created 
but 
the scripts doesn´t behave as I expect. Someone please help me to set this 
to work.
 
I think this is a first step to make a good 
template and if we manage to obtain an impresive one and people starts using it 
then it should be a feature request to support form creation natively in LyX, 
hopely as a new toolbox. What do you think about this?
 
Please don´t feel offended by my (bad) english, I 
really make my best effort to translate it.
 
Regards
 
Alex
