Goodmorning, is there a way to create this type of form?

input // a variable like a number or a text 
on submit
if (input == case1)
url redirect : www.....
else 
if (input == case2)
url redirect2 : www...
else
if (input == case3)
....

Hi ratne,

Yes, use a Custom Code action in the On Submit event with code like this:

<?php
switch ( $form->data['input'] ) {
  case 'case1':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'www.. . .';
    break;
  case 'case2':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'www.. . .';
    break;
  case 'case3':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'www.. . .';
    break;
}
?>

And add a Redirect User action as the last action in the On Submit event.

i've donw this but it does not work.
Second question. How can i insert an error message if the word did not match?

Hi Ratne,

Sorry, I copied part of that code and it was incorrect. I've updated my post. Here's the working version

<?php
switch ( $form->data['data'] ) {
  case 'case1':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'http://www.davideiacomi.info';
    break;
  case 'case2':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'http://www.pampaninirossi.it';
    break;
  case 'case3':
    $form->data['redirect_url'] = 'http://www.pampaninirossi.com';
    break;
}
?>

Note that I've added the http:// to the URLs and changed the $form->data['data'] to match the name of your form input.

You also need to add the ReDirect User action with a blank Target URL box.

To show an error if there is no match I would use the Serverside validation action.

Ok it finally work, now i've only to know what you mean for this

To show an error if there is no match I would use the Serverside validation action.

and the form is ready.
Thank you very much!

Hi Ratne,

If you really only allow a limited number of possibilities for this input then you should use a drop-down box or a radio button group in your form. That would prevent any incorrect replies.

Otherwise here's how to check a list of valid response:
[list]

Drag a Custom Serverside Validation action into the ON Submit event and move it up before any actions other than Anti-Spam checks.

Open it up and add code like this

<?php
$ok_values = array(
  'case1', 
  'case2',
  'case3'
);
if ( !in_array($form->data['data'], $ok_values ) {
  $form->validation_errors['data'] = "Add message here";
  return false;
}
?>

Save and close the action then drag an Event Loop action into the pink On Fail event box (the default settings for the Event Loop are OK).
