Hi i am new to this. I am using chronoforms. I have created a form and below is a sample code. How do i retreive the value entered by the user and store it in variables so as to later insert into my database. Can anyone please help

This is part of the form code

<div class="form_item">
  <div class="form_element cf_textbox">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 150px;">Question</label>
    <input class="cf_inputbox" maxlength="150" size="30" title="" id="text_1" name="question" type="text" />
  
  </div>
  <div class="cfclear"> </div>
</div>

<div class="form_item">
  <div class="form_element cf_textbox">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 150px;">a</label>
    <input class="cf_inputbox" maxlength="150" size="30" title="" id="text_2" name="option1" type="text" />
  
  </div>
  <div class="cfclear"> </div>
</div>

<div class="form_item">
  <div class="form_element cf_textbox">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 150px;">b</label>
    <input class="cf_inputbox" maxlength="150" size="30" title="" id="text_4" name="option2" type="text" />

Hi,

do you have a table to save the data to ? if yes then how did you create it ? if you created it using the "Create table" icon in the forms manager then you should not worry, if its your table then make sure your table column names matches the forms fields names!

then enable the DB connection under the DB connection tab and select your table from the tables list!
