How to process custom variable

Hi!
I've created a custom multiselect element.
Now I need to process selected data and paste it into Email template...
Don't know how to make it: receive array, process(format and paste into global variable (?) ) it and paste into template . In plain php it is like this:

<?php 
$test=$_POST['test']; /*select name*/
	if ($test){
	 foreach ($test as $t)
	  {
	   echo 'You selected ',$t,'<br />';
	   }
	}
 ?>

Thank you!

Hi 01,

Please see this FAQ you need to add the Handle Arrays action to the On Submit event.

Bob

Thank you!
Here I've some difficulties. My select elements looks like this:

<select id="myList" name="adv[]" multiple="multiple" disabled='disabled' size="8">
   <option value="one">„one“</option>
   <option value="two">„two two“</option>
    ...
</select>

Also at the top of On Submit event I've added Handle Arrays where at "White fields list" I've written adv. Do I need more actions? Or now I can add data straight to template (which placeholder should I use)?

Hi 01,

A disabled input does not submit anything :-(

Please leave the White Fields List empty.

Bob

The disabled options is made for JS - so it could be omitted. The multiselect works - tested on separate php file.

"White Fields" changed to blank. Delimeter is set to default - ".", as it was.
As my custom select has "input_custom_10" field name - I've putted it to mail template with placeholders. But still no result... I receive mail with this line:

{input_custom_10}

Hi 01,

Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug - including the 'dummy emails' results here.

No problem, here it goes:

So, as I see the {input_custom_10} is absent in array😟

Hi 01,

Yes, it looks as though your JavaScript is not removing the disabled attribute :-(

Bob

Also tried without "disabled='disabled'" - no luck.
But if I copy generated HTML output to blank php file and debug form - everything works...

Hi 01,

Sorry, there isn't enough information here to give me any clues about what is happening.

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Bob

No problem, here it is:
http://xxx
As I looked through the FireBug - the custom element doesn't participate in POST at all😟 No data is sent

Hi 01,

Well no, the select is still disabled. There's an <ol> list with the same entries but it doesn't do anything as far as I can see.

And there is a JavaScript error

TypeError: $("toggleLink") is null
http://slavija.lt/ru/component/chronoforms/?chronoform=Zakaz_reklamy
Line 112

which is probably stopping the custom script from running.

Bob

Thank you for your patient replies! It is if custom JS. It somehow overrides values. Will debug.
Have a great day!
