Input Field Special Characters Problem

Hi,

I have designed my name field to accept any of the characters except numbers. But Admin emails are not working properly.When we use " in the name field admins email is not working. I have htmlentities($name) like this in email template. I have used V2.5 J1.5 RC3.1.

Please help.

Hi ritatrita,

Please can you show me an example.

Thanks for your reply. if i entered test's son in the name field, there is no problem with the admin email. its works properly. if i use some of the special characters in the form like Mrs.sonia's Son"s, the admin is not coming.

HI ritarita,

I just tested and there doesn't seem to be any problem in including this text from a text input into the body of an email. Exaclty where are you using the Name value?

Hi

I have used the "Name" field value for "Fromname" email field. So that when we enter " value in the name field the admin email is not working. i am using chronoforms V2.5 J1.5 RC3.1.Where can i get the upgrade patch.

Thank you,

Hi ritarita,

You can download the latest version of ChronoForms from the downlaods area here. But there is no automatic upgrade from v 2.5 :-(

You might be able to use the " in the Email name field if you escape the value in the OnSubmit Before box.

PS I took a quick look at the Email specs and I'm not all sure that a single " will be valid in an email name though a quoted string "xxx" should be OK.
