Hi to all CF community.
I need to be able to do following:
Save two different parts of the form data separately -
1) First part needs to be be saved always;
2) Second part will be filled in and saved only when user needs it and will be performed by pressing a button.
My thoughts of how to accomlish this:
FIRST OPTION:
1) load a form (Form1) to fill in the data;
2) load other form (Form2) inside the form to fill another data; press Submit button
3) save the data filled in Form2,
4) return to Form1,
5) save data filled in Form1;
SECOND OPTION:
Ther are 2 submit buttons with 2 different submit events:
1) 1st Submit button saves 1st part of the data;
2) 2nd Submit button saves 2nd part of the data of the form.
THIRD OPTION:
create a switch/if/php function to separate two parts of the form to save them separately.
Unfortunately I cannot figure out eithr of this. Could anybody give me the direction where to digg?
1) is it possible to load other form inside a form? If yes, how? - create a [ button OR link OR html] to open a form? - where to put the form alias? What would be the syntax?
2) how to return to the first form not loosing the data that was entered in Form1 before Form2 was opened - link? event?
3) how to create SECOND submit button with different event to save part of the form data in DB?
Thank you in advance -
Elita
(I would really appreciate the solution for CF6 and CF7 if they differ)
