Email Address: {youremail} Why is this happening?

rowby 17 Dec, 2008
I've created a form (using HTML and pasting it into the new 3.0 form code section.

I have a field called EmailAddress But when the form is submitted, here is what is sent to us on the submitted email form:

Email Address:* {youremail}

Why is it showing {youremail} instead of the email the visitor entered in the field? I want the email address to be the email address so my client can contact them customer at their email address. What am I doing wrong here.

I am also having a similar problem with a multilined text box field

The name of the field is called "YourComments" but when the form is submitted it says:

Comments including nature of your inquiry: {message}
I want the form results to include the multi line comments that the visitor entered in the field.

What am I doing wrong?🙂


Thanks
