Hi, I'm using CF 2.5 J1.5 RC3.1 and I'm having difficulty with the email following form submission.

Everything works fine as far as sending the email but when I check the results at my email it does not show the correct template that I pasted into the Email template field under the form code tab. It is a rather large template of a table that has about 34 rows and 6 columns. I noticed that when I paste the template and save the form then click back into editing the form and check to make sure the correct template is there it is the older template that was there previously. It seems like it is refusing to save the larger template and reverting it back to the older one and that's the one that gets emailed.

Is there a limit to how much code you can paste into the email template box? thanks

Hi Bullfn33,

No there is no limit, but try something shorter and see ?

Max

Yes, it seems to work for a less amount of code, up to at least 2/3 of what I need. Then when I try the whole thing again the form will save to the amount it could hold previously and that is what gets sent to the email.

mmmm, can you open phpmyadmin and check the emailtemplate field type ? if its "TEXT" make it "LONGTEXT"

Hi Max,

Its a LONGTEXT on my installation :-(

Something else is going on here I think - maybe unquoted text??

I went into phpmyadmin and checked to make sure the field was set to LONGTEXT and it was so then I just decided to try pasting the email template code back there and it worked. Pretty strange but that's all I needed.

thanks for the help guys

Hi Bob, Bullfn,

I think Bob is correct and it has something to do with quotes or so, its V2.5 so this gets a very high probability! glad you solved it anyway!
