redirect email defaults to before and other issues

Hi

I have a form that I need to redirect to PayPal, the form has four options for payment amounts and I have set it up as outlined in Greyhead's advice in viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16031&p=41539&hilit=redirct#p41539

The redirect needs to work after the email but no matter how many times I try to save it the default is always before email. This is the debug information that appears when I open the redirect plugin.

$params: JParameter Object ( [_raw] => debugging=0 target_url=http:// onsubmit=before_email [_xml] => [_elements] => Array ( ) [_elementPath] => Array ( [0] => /content/Hosting/c/a/cask-marque.co.uk/web/libraries/joomla/html/parameter/element ) [_defaultNameSpace] => _default [_registry] => Array ( [_default] => Array ( [data] => stdClass Object ( [debugging] => 1 [target_url] => http://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr [onsubmit] => before_email ) ) ) [_errors] => Array ( ) ) 

When I test the form I am take to a page which states 'You are not allowed to access this URL'

The email is not sent and the database is not updated.

I am using ChronoForms_V3.1_RC5.5 and Joomla v1.5.20

Any help would be appreciated, everything worked fine in a test webspace but now the site is live and this has happened so I need to sort it out as quickly as possible.

Dave

Hi Dave,

From a quick look I think you may have the Plugin configured with Flow Control set to Before Email?

Bob

PS It's possible that there's a bug in the plugin here :-( Don't have time to look further now.

Thanks for your quick reply.

Part of the problem is that the plugin will not let me save the flow control as after email, it always sets itself back to before email.

A quick update

I have successfully managed to get the email working and it is now writing to the database.

Still haven't had any luck getting the plugin to save after email.

After the form is filled in and I am redirected to PayPal the amount is not filled in. Back to the drawing board on that one!

Dave

After reading lots of posts I now understand that because of a bug in the plugin it will not save the after email setting.

I had a problem with code appearing on the page after a form submission but managed to sort it out with the help of a post.

My problem now is that I have a drop down with four options, each one with a different price attached to it and I need to send the correct value to PayPal. I have found a few threads with the same problem and I've tried the suggested solution for each one but I can't get any of them to work.

If anyone has any advice it would be most appreciated.

Dave

I finally managed to figure it out and all is well in the world again.

Dave

How did you end up solving this?

Thanks,
Rosie
