Thread: Form

Hello,
I'm able to send my order form to my e-mail address, with display of the "thankpage", but after opening my e-mail, there is no form & any information on the form i receive. Could you tell me the reason why this occurs.
Thank you
Piera

It sounds as if you have not named your fields in the form? So to better help us to assist you- please give us the URL of the page/form that you are having diffuculties with and if possible- paste the actual php code you used to process the form.

Please also check the "Encoding Type" (must be "Multipart / Form Data"

You do not get a form in the email, just the info. To get a real form, you need to use another script, capable of sending html emails. Then, a table could be created to contain the field names and the field values, and this table (which is html code) sent with the email.

What I have to do to reicive the info into my mail because I just have this
Values submitted from web site form : but not script
Thank you for your help

Please post here the URL of your form page.

script?

When you mention you recieve "Values submitted from website form"...does it list each field on your form followed by a ":" and some text(in your email)

if it does then it worked, unless there is something else that is supposed to occur.

can you elaborate on the "script" you are mentioning, I am confused.

i writted script = the text I writed in my form did'nt appear in my mail when a received it

Ok, you have some mistakes in your form: the fields " Nom du bijou et description " are named T1. You need to name them.

Then, i don't understand the amount fields and the total field. Unless you have (which i can't see) a script in the page for refreshing the page and calculating the total amount, i don't beleive you expect your customer to make additions, do you ?

As for the actual problem: i can't see what the problem might be with the script, unless you publish here the php script that you have used.

Please note that you CAN use a script that will send you the entire order form, visually formatted as a printed form (looking like printed invoices or order forms) but this requires a custom made script. You can also have such a visuall effect in a confirmation page, before final submission of the order, with all the calculations made, so the customer sees what he is ordering and what it is going to cost. This is something i do as a freelance. If you are interested, contact me.

did you create the form using BlueVoda? or something else?

either the "Name" of your fields in your form do not exactly match what is shown in your "action.php" file or there is some other error.

As a matter of speaking, I just remembered that someone used a form of mine and it did the same thing...everything was blank....

This was because the max number of allowed characters for one of the fields was exceeded. It went through the process, showing no error of this, but everything in my email was blank.

either one of these could be a possiblility.
