I do use

The form is oke, it is sending data to DB, sending emails etc.
The thing i now run into is the follwing.

I am displaying the results to the user via code in the Onsubmit-after sending email field.

I do have the following redirect in it;

<?php
global $mainframe;

$custom_tag = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10"; url=http://www.lvschilderwerken.nl" >';
$mainframe->addCustomHeadTag($custom_tag);
?>
<p>Geachte {fieldname}</p>
<p>Hartelijk dank voor het indienen van dit offerte verzoek.{fieldnames etc}</p>

After the redirect i do get the following error on the screen;

You are not allowed to access this URL directly, POST array is empty

I don't know what it is and how to deal with it.
Can you tell me what to do?

Hi Leo,

Looks to me as though there is a quote missing before the url url="http . . .

The message you are seeing is one generated by ChronoForms when the task=send url is clicked with an empty form - it's a little bit of spam prevention.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for your answer but i just copied it at it is in the faq pages. But maybe you're right. I've changed it into;

<?php
global $mainframe;

$custom_tag = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10"; url="http://www.lvschilderwerken.nl" >';
$mainframe->addCustomHeadTag($custom_tag);
?>
<p>Geachte <?php echo $_POST['geslacht'] ?> <?php echo $_POST['realname'] ?></p>
<p>Hartelijk dank voor het indienen van dit offerte verzoek.</p>

But, i'm sorry, with the same result. Still get the error message.

Do you have an other suggestion?

Hi Leo,

Try to remove those PHP lines ?

What i tried was to make a redirect after showing the data of the form for 10 seconds.

Perhaps i did the wrong thing?

Can you tell me how to do it?
I've been searching in PHP forums but i am affraid to end up the same.

Hi Leo,

After a quick look that code looks as though it ought to work in Joomla 1.0.x - is that what you are using?

Hi Bob,

I do use Joomla 1.5.1

Leo

Hi leo,

OK, that helps. I'm not sure that $mainframe->addCustomHeadTag($custom_tag) is supported in Joomla 1.5

I'll have a hunt around when I have a moment - I think that ChronoForms uses that somewhere so I can see what Max used in the 1.5 version.

Bob

Hi Leo,

Apparently it should still work though it's deprecated. The 'correct' Joomla 1.5 code is

global $mainframe;

$document =& JFactory::getDocument();
$customTag = . . .;
$document->addCustomTag( $customTag );

Bob

Hi Leo,

I fiddles around and solved it. The code you have works OK but use this syntax:

$custom_tag = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://www.lvschilderwerken.nl" >';

Note the 10;url bit especially, no spaces and no quotes.

Sorry for the misguidance earlier.

Bob

Hi Bob,

I have changed the code into the one you offered.

<?php
$custom_tag = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://www.lvschilderwerken.nl" >';
?>


Could you tell me i did it the correct way ? Because it is not redirecting after 10 seconds!
Sorry for the trouble but i'm just a ono at PHP, sorry for that. And thanks again for your great help.

Hi Leo,

I only gave you the one line.In full it is:

<?php
global $mainframe;

$custom_tag = '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://www.lvschilderwerken.nl" >';
$mainframe->addCustomHeadTag($custom_tag);
?>
<p>Geachte <?php echo $_POST['geslacht'] ?> <?php echo $_POST['realname'] ?></p>
<p>Hartelijk dank voor het indienen van dit offerte verzoek.</p>
