Hey,

Fairly new to Joomla! and chronoforms and I've encounterd a problem.

I've created a form for the playground I'm volunteering in (Joomla 1.5). On submit the e-mails are send out without a problem and the page you get to see afterwards is nice (also in the joomla template and CSS).

BUT! When I want to save the data Icreated the DBconnection as in the manual (creating table, setting data storage to yes and selecting the right table), on submit I get a page with just the text and some Â's throughout the text. Moreover the data doesn't end up in the database.

I checked everything but don't know what to do... hopefully someone can help me out!

thanks a lot!!
Koen

Hi Koen,

Your Email input has name='E-Mail' - the dashin there is probably causing the problem. Remove the dash here and rename the database column to match and see if that works.

The 'A' characters are probably caused by a character set mismatch somewhere - search the forums here on 'Danish' for one possible fix.

it works! Thank you so very much!!
