Multi Page What am I doing wrong.

chrono2 01 Dec, 2011
Dear Greyhead and other admins, or anyone who can help,

I am making a test form which i cannot get to work. The test form is simply for future reference.
In the attachment you can find the form that i made but i cannot get it to work.

I need to create for a client a form with hundreds of functions which he already has but it is a very long long form which irritates him. so he asked me to make it in multiple pages and i agreed. After reading through a lot of posts(not logged in) i have tried to make the best of it but it is not sending the data from form 1 to form 2(or maybe it does but it doesnt sent it to the email.)

can you please help...

SETUP

Form 1 (form wizard)

PREVIEW
.Checkboxes Group (validation 1 required)
(field name=programma)
(label text=programma)
(options= a=a
b=b
c=c)
.Submit button
(field name=submit)
(label text=Submit)

EVENTS
.On Load
..Show HTML (Yes,Yes,Yes,No,No)

.On Submit
..Date to session
...SessionKey = tester
...Merge data = no
..Show form
...Action = Load form
...form name = form 2




Form 2 (form wizard)

PREVIEW
.hidden field
(field name=programma)
.email (validation required + email)
(field name=email)
(label text=email)
.name (validation required)
(field name=name)
(label text=name)
.Submit button
(field name=submit)
(label text=Submit)


EVENTS
.On Load
..Session to data
...sessionkey = tester
...clear after = no
..Show HTML (Yes,Yes,Yes,Yes,No)

.On Submit
..email
...enabled=yes
...send as=html
...get ip=yes
...template=
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td>
Hidden #0
</td>
<td>
{programma}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
email
</td>
<td>
{email}
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
name
</td>
<td>
{name}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
(I leave out the static and dynamic field I know they are oke!)
..show thanks message=message sent

--------

these are all the settings in the attachement i have put in the forms that i have previously described. down below i put the output i receive in the email:


Hidden #0
email [email]test@freeqmail.com[/email]
name test


I appreciate all the help to make this work.

Thanks everyone

I am kinda dissappointed. I waited yesterday for hours and now it is almost noon and still nobody who can answer me.

Is there someone out there who can help or do we all need to switch to Smart Former which would be a shame but still there are some docs out there to help.

Hi chrono2,

I've just replied to another post of yours on this question.

As far as I can make out the code you've sketched here is correct. Please take a Form Backup using the icon in the Forms Manager and post it here (as a zipped file) or PM or email it to me and I'll take a closer look.

Hi,

Did you manage to solve this issue ? if not then let me know and I will try to develop a simple multi page form on my local install and send you the backup file so you can modify it to your needs.

Hi Max,

I think we got this working OK.

I too am trying to setup a multi-page form for the first time (have been using ChronoForms for years but never done a multi-page form).

Did you guys ever make a sample backup form that we could use for reference? I don't see a copy of chrono2's form attached AFTER he got it working.

GreyHead, I've read your input on chrono2's other thread (here: http://www.chronoengine.com/forums.html?cont=posts&p=194680#p194680) and have even set up my form exactly as chrono2 describes above. It appears to be working in the sense that one forms loads the next BUT I don't get any emails for some reason.

When they are setup as individual forms they submit emails fine...but not when I turn them into a multi page setup. I'm sure it's a simple setting I have wrong.

Can you provide any advice? Can I post a backup of my form for you to review - or a link to it?

Hi growfish,

Indeed I have just added a new multi page feature to the new version, you can contact me through the "Contact Us" page to get the latest installer, please mention you Joomla version.
