Hi,

I've used a custom Element to generate a list of input depending on the number of records of a table ( a list of products).
The purpose is to allow people to ask for a quotation for a quantity for all the products ( diplayed on 2 columns).

The forms works great, thanks ChronoForms, but I can't retrieve the values of the custom input in the email template because of the name of the input. I've generated a unique name for each input but the email template doesn't seem to like that...

Here is the generation of the input:

<?php
echo '<input maxlength="2" name="qte'.$i.'" type="text" style="width:30px"/>'
?>

It seems impossible to get the variable name (qte1, qte2....) in the email template, there I get:

<?php
echo '{qte}'
?>

Is there a solution to get the values generated by the forms in this case?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Borox,

You can't use the curly brackets syntax inside PHP so instead you have to use the $form->data array

<?php
echo $form->data['qte'.$i];
?>
