I am new to ChronoForms but find them very helpful. I plan on getting a license if all goes well. I have a few questions.

First is how do you make a checkbox automatically insert a specific number into a textbox.
My application is that I am using this for a paypal donation. I have gotten things to complete the paypal process. But it doensn't send me a email with the proper amount. For everything is done in On Submit After email.

I have a check box with 3 selections, One Time, Automatic Monthly, Day Sponsor. If they select Day Sponsor I want it to automatically insert 20.00 into text_16. For the other selections they will be able to enter an amount.

I am posting my paypal code for those of you wanting to either allow a one time donation or a subscription donation. I am not a pro at PHP as you can see but it works, I just want it to change the amount before email so that I get the proper email. It would even be great to have a text box appear only if they select One Time or Automatic Monthly. If my PHP can be changed for speedier use then please assist.

<?php
if($_POST['check1']=="One Time")
{
$type = "_xclick";
$amt = "amount";
$dsamt = ($_POST["text_16"]);
}
elseif ($_POST['check1']=="Day Sponsor")
{
$type = "_xclick";
$amt = "amount";
$dsamt = "20.00";
}
else
{
$type = "_xclick-subscriptions";
$amt = "a3";
$dsamt = ($_POST["text_16"]);
}
?>

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="<?php echo $type; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="email@email.org">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="<?php echo $_POST["check1"]; ?> Donation - <?php echo $_POST["text_0"]; ?> <?php echo $_POST["text_1"]; ?>">

Are they a manual on the use of the validation section?

Thanks for all your help in advance. I have searched the Forums.

Hi sthostetler,

you have <form tags in the code and this may make troubles with Chronoforms!

you can publish the field with some data using JS,use this code in the field tag of your checkbox:

onChange="$('text_16').value = '20.00';"

Cheers
