Hello, Im trying to use ChronoForms V2.3.9 on a 1.0.12 Joomla Version. I read all the threads about this issue and not even the simplest form works. Now I have no clue where else to look to solve this.

Any hints where I could find the cause of the problem?

Thanks!

Hi craude,

Have you left the <form> and/or </form> tags in your form html? If so please remove them.

Hi Bob, thanks for the hint, but my simple test code looks loke that:

<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="" size="30" />

<input name="submit" value="send" type="submit">


... and no JScript, no email, ...

... and the websites' source code looks like this:

<form name="ChronoContact_test" id="ChronoContact_test" method="post" action="index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=test" >
...

Hi craude,

The code looks OK. If the site is on-line and it's OK with you please PM or email me a SuperAdmin logon and I'll take a look.

Hi craude,

I'm baffled at the moment. I have no idea what is happening. The error message is triggered when the $_POST array with the form results is empty to stop problems with users going to the 'onsubmit' url. When a form is submitted the results are held in the $_POST array and so there should always be some value - if only that of the submit button.

I've added a line of code to check and the $_POST array is empty when the ChronoForms code executes. You can see yourself by submitting the form - the $_GET & $_COOKIE data is there but nothing is in $_POST.

I have no idea why this should happen - it's not something that ChronoForms does and I can't see any other setting that would interfere. (I've set sh404DEF to skip Chronoforms URLs).

If I have any more thoughts I'll go back and check.

Bob

PS I installed Joomal Explorer to access the ChronoForms code.
