Hi,
You can display the selected value of a set of radio buttons, but you can't show radio buttons in the template. For example, with this form: Code:
What do you like? Noise: <input type="radio" name="likes" value="noise" /> Silence: <input type="radio" name="likes" value="silence" /> Code:
Person likes: $likes Code:
Person likes: noise Code:
Person likes: silence

Hi Russel
Thanks for the response I have set the template up but when I submit I get the following error report An error occurred while processing the form. Please contact us directly since this form is not working. We apologize for any inconvenience this error may have caused. I have an attach feature set up on my form is this affecting the submission of my form results by html template? Mike |

Hi,
You'll need to set DEF_ALERT in FormMail so that you get an alert message sent to you. The alert message will tell us what the problem is.

Hey Russell,
Is there any way to get "zero" values passed through the script? What I mean is I can use "TemplateMissing=N/A" to get "N/A" printed in an HTML email for fields that did not have any data input but when they put a "0" (zero) in the field, the script returns "N/A" in the email. Thanks, sebestyen |

Hi,
Well, you could make "TemplateMissing=0" (zero), but that's going to look funny on text fields. Another way would be to provide an initial value of "0" on your numeric fields. Make the non-required numeric fields initially zero, and leave the required numeric fields blank (and put them in the "required" specification).

Russell, your FormMail is great! But I have one question:
I've got 14 select boxes in my form, the visitor can select the documentation he wan't to obtain. In my form it's like this: <input type="check-box" name="document1" value="Documentation_Name"> I've got something like this in my HTML template: <table> <tr> <tdDocumentation:</td> </tr> <tr> <td> $document1<br> $document2<br> $document3<br> $document4<br> </td> </tr> </table> But when they only want to obtain document4, I have 3 empty lines in my mail.. When I remove the <br> tags, all the documents are put together as one line. When I put them in seperate <td>'s I get a load of empty TD's and the result is the same. Is there a way to only show the lines that are filled? (skip some code or something). I can't use PHP in the template can I? |

Hi,
That's a limitation of HTML. FormMail can help you out though. BTW, if you have this: Code:
<input type="check-box" name="document1" value="Documentation_Name"> Code:
<input type="checkbox" name="document1" value="Documentation_Name"> Step 1 Instead of 4 different checkbox fields, make it one checkbox field, like this: Code:
Document 1: <input type="checkbox" name="documents[]" /> <br /> Document 2: <input type="checkbox" name="documents[]" /> <br /> Document 3: <input type="checkbox" name="documents[]" /> <br /> Document 4: <input type="checkbox" name="documents[]" /> <br /> Code:
<table> <tr> <tdDocumentation:</td> </tr> <tr> <td> $documents </td> </tr> </table> Step 2 If you want them on separate lines, add the following to your form: Code:
<input type="hidden" name="template_list_sep" value="<br />" /> Enjoy! BTW, yes, your templates can be PHP. You just need to tell FormMail to open then as URLs instead of files (set $TEMPLATEURL instead of $TEMPLATEDIR).
