    Default Links in a textarea form field

    Hello:

    I have a textarea form field which someone is placing links to other websites into it.

    I researched the forum and came to this post,
    (http://tectite.com/vbforums/showthread.php?t=973).

    I implemented one of the suggestions and when I run the form the links appear in the textarea field within the email.

    This is the code I used for my form:
    Code:
    <input type="hidden" name="conditions1" value=":#
           #TEST#questions!~/HTML\=/i#HTML code is not valid in this form#:
           #TEST#questions!~/URL\=/i#HTML code is not valid in this form#:
           #TEST#questions!~/HREF\=/i#HTML code is not valid in this form#:
           #TEST#questions!~/\@/#HTML code is not valid in this form#
             " />
    My form field name for the textarea is questions. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

    Am I supposed to setup something within the formmail.php script to look for this condition?

    If someone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hello:

    Yes, I read that post as well. I implemented the validate email from that post and it works great.

    I can't get the conditions to check for links in my textarea field.

    One simple solution to both these problems might be to subscribe for some minimal support and let the tech department check it out for you. The cost is very reasonable and in the long run probably the most reliable way to go. Let an "expert" check it out. They may be able to fix other problems you are not even aware of.
