Hi there This is my first post here.
Basicaly I took the form posted in "Optical Contact / Request Information form by laurel" and altered it to suite my needs and added some CSS styling. Hope you guys like it and can find a use for it somewhere.
Example of what this form looks like:
Hope it is ok.

I can't see how you get the input field on its own line above the image or how you put the message between the two. Also how do you get the reload image option
Hi abasel,
There's a way to do a refresh button in this FAQ, and in the same piece of code you'll see that you can swap around the elements of the block. Note that this will apply to all your forms though!

Hi there,
I am new to this form and Chrono, please help me with this form. I have modified the form Jamesls posted but was unable to make it work. I am using it to collect general information about the player, names address etc.
Any help would much appreciated. By the I don't have any javascript with the form.
thanks

Hi romanum,
That makes sense, good catch!
You should also take the <body> tag out of your form code; and I think the '<label1' tags should be just '<label'.

Hi Bob,
Thank you for getting back to me. My site is going live on May 31 and I really want this form to work so that the kids can register for summer soccer games.
What I did was:
• Created the form
• Pasted the form code into the html code section
• Created the link for it by going to menu->component link and display it on my home page using a module.
• Completed the form, clicked submit button but nothing happens – no data submitted no feedback.
I suspect I need javascript function for submitting and validation?
Thanks
John

Hi John,
You don't need any JavaScript for submitting (and probably not for validation).
In the ChronoForms Forms Manager, open the form and turn DeBug to ON in the General Tab (and remove any ReDirect URL temporarily).
Save the form, then click on the Link for the form to display it in a new window. Put some data in and Submit the form. You should then get a screen-ful of debug info. Please copy and post that here for starters.

Hi John,
Thanks for that. There are two - probably separate - things going on here. First off nearly all your fields are named 'text'; what web forms do is to create a results slot for that name and write the results into it, when they find a second field with the same name the results from the first one are over-written. So all that's being returned in the $_POST array is the value of the last, empty text field. (Also 'text' is a not a good field name as it has other meanings in html.)
You need to rename your fields with either (a) different names text_1, text_2, . . .is fine, or (b) use an array name like text_result[], you can put this in all your fields and the web browser will add each result to the array instead of over-writing. This would probably be good for your roster fields.
Second, there's a problem with the email being sent. ChronoForms is sending it to Joomla and something is going wrong after that - hence the 'Email not sent' message. Please check the FAQs here and look for the one about emails not being sent as there are several possible causes.

Hi Bob,
I can't thank you enough for your help. I made the changes to name = text to name =text_1, 2 etc. Is this what you recommending me to change right? For example, see below but it didn't make any difference. please see the debug output at the bottom. By the way I didn't make changes the email yet though.

Hi John,
Well the only difference that I can see is that you now have some output from your form.
But as you are using the email template and haven't changed it yet there isn't anything showing up in the email. As far as I can see that's exactly what you'd expect.
Switch back from 'email template' to 'field titles' and hopefully you'll see the data.

Thank you Bob. I can see the imput info now. I really appreciated your help for the last few days. I'm just a bigenner, looking forward to add some functionalities such as - basic field validation (eg. email), some feed back for users (eg. "thank you for registering") after they submit the form.
The ChronoForm Form manager interface is a bit intimediating. For example, in the General tab, there are a number of email fields which I still don't know how the difference.
I watched a couple of videos on how to create basic form and I understand it is hard to cover everything in video. As my profession is creating videos, I will create one (After I leared it myself). Do you know if there is manual that describe each tabs in details for this product?
thanks
John

Hi John,
Ye,I made the videos a long while (and many ChronoForms versions) ago. The interface is a bit intimidating but it is all logical once you get your head round the boxes.
The most important thing isto add one new thing at a time, if you add too many than you don't know what isn't working!
The email fields in the General tab are pretty much the same as in any Email programme though you probably don't see them all at once.
Email to - is the main person you are sending to
CC email - is a copy that is visible to the other recipients
BCC email - is a copy that isn't visible (that is the BCC email address doesn't show)
From email - is the one that appears as 'From' when you receive it
Return email - is the address that is used when you click 'Reply to' on the email (often the same as From but not necessarily so).
There isn't a manual that covers all the tabs, I have the beginnings of one done but it's slow progress at the moment.
Look forward to seeing the video!

Hi Bob,
It is interesting when I turned on the Debug, I see the form's out put correctly. However, when I checked the forms record in the from the back end, virtually 90% of the inputs were not recorded.
why the out put is different. Obviously I need to capture the info people send me in to the form record that I can process them.

Hi John,
Hmmm that maybe because you've edited the form field names after the database table was created. Assuming that you have no useful data so far The simplest thing to do is probably to make a copy form in the Form Manager, delete the old one and create a new table for the new form.

I notice you're using fieldsets. Do you have to take out the form tags when transferring from Dreamweaver? That is, I've made a form which encloses all the fieldsets as a form1 then they go all the way up to form36- a lot of detail in this form. Only the first part posts to my email when I fill it out. Do you have to use php to get it to post all the items? Thanks.

Hi sailsmart,
I have no idea what this is. It certainly doesn't look like nay kind of code that will work with ChronoForms (I know that it doesn't look right here - in part because of the heredocs in the middle.)
What is it supposed to be?
Bob

Bang on John! That was the problem. Recreated the form with new fields and everything is showing now. Thank you very much.
Now I have past the first hurdle. I will continue learning this great tool.
Thank you and have a nice weekend ( if you live in North America that is)

Thanks for this thread, im kinda having a fresh cool looks on my form now.
hi I am brand new to chronoforms, and am trying to set one up. I have copied this code into my site, and it appears to be functioning correctly, except that the results are not emailed to me. I clicked Yes for Email the results ?, and I set up a To: [email]everet@gnosismedia.ca[/email] (my email) under Setup emails. Are there other steps I missed to make it connect to my email? thx
Hi jaatendi,
Please see this tutorial. If you still have problems with sending emails then FAQ 36 may also help but some of it applies to earlier versions of CF.
