Hi maxfard,

You can edit the Form hTML in the Form Editor | Form HTML box to add anything you like (except <form & </form> tags).

Thanks Bob...
i did modify the form and the appearance of the form looks fine, however there is a problem with the email field.

the email field is fine when i enter the captcha correctly, and the email gets sent. no problem with that.

BUT

if i enter the captcha incorrectly into it's field the following code gets generated in the email field:

<script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'> <!-- var prefix = 'mailto:'; var suffix = ''; var attribs = ''; var path = 'hr' + 'ef' + '='; var addy8487 = 'maxfard' + '@'; addy8487 = addy8487 + 'live' + '.' + 'com'; document.write( '<a ' + path + '\'' + prefix + addy8487 + suffix + '\'' + attribs + '>' ); document.write( addy8487 ); document.write( '<\/a>' ); //--> </script><script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'> <!-- document.write( '<span style=\'display: none;\'>' ); //--> </script>This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it <script language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'> <!-- document.write( '</' ); document.write( 'span>' ); //--> </script>

The follwing is the HTML code i have used to customize my form. I have pretty much added a table and used <tr> and <td> tags around <div> tags. That's all....

What would you suggest i should do ?

<div class="form_item">
<div class="form_element cf_heading">
<h4 class="cf_text">Contact New Trend Home</h4>
</div>
<div class="cfclear"> </div>
</div>

Hi maxfard,

You have the Joomla! Email Cloaking Plug-in enabled and it is trying to cloak the sample e-mail in the ChronoForms validation message. Disable the plug-in temporarily to check this is the problem. If you need the plug-in change the plug-ins order so that Email Cloaking runs before ChronoForms.

NB These are Joomla! plug-ins that you manage from Site Admin | Extensions | Plug-in Manager
