Questions on Form Handler Results & Downloadable items.
Hello since I am still learning all the awesome things that can be down on
ones websites I have a few more questions if anyone can help. I looked at
all the posts on Form Handler issues but did not see my particular situation
stated anywhere.
I used the Form Handler to make a form to submit to me to let me know what
someone would like to buy as a bundle. It has text entered fields and a
bunch of the check boxes, a reset button and the submit button. It actually
works the way I want it to by sending me an email with the entered
information. The problem is when I read the email it generates to me it is
missing some information and is scrambled plus if I keep going back to
submit another one to test again it sends me the new email but it does not
send me the new items that were checked off. It had a combination of all the
others ones and the new ones. It never just sends what I check each time. I
need each persons individual checks on the forms that each person submits.
The missing information is the 3rd text box. I type random stuff in there
but it does not come through on the email. The title is there but not the
answer. Plus I would like when the email comes to have it in a specific
order in the body so that it is easier for me to read. Like the first thing
I would like to read is Text box 1(Full Name) then Text Box 2(email) then
the Drop down menu(format) and then Text Box3(YahooGroup?) Then all the
boxes that have been checked. Is there a solution to this problem?
If you need a look at the form I created to get an idea of what is wrong
here is the link. I don't want to advertise it until I get it working
properly. It's not ever going to be included in my site navigation.

My other question is can downloadable items be sold with NOF10 where an
email is generated after someone pays that sends them the link to the
downloadable items they just purchased. Giving them a password for that
specific file they purchased that is generated just for them for a limited
time. And the folder that the files are located in can only be accessed by
me or the purchaser. Or is that too complicated. I'm thinking of something
like the software oscommerce or zcart I believe. Does NOF10 have a way of
doing anything like that?
I am not knowledgeable in all the programming lingo, I tend to pick up how
to do some things along the way so please go easy on the explanations. Still
a Newbie after 3 years of this stuff.
BTW loved that tutorial on the forms, I was able to create my form and get
it working very quickly just had the problem with what the email looked like
when it arrived. This is a great forum to learn how to use our software!
Thanks!
Best Wishes,
Gail

Re: Questions on Form Handler Results & Downloadable items.
Ok I got it working properly but the 3rd text edit field still does not
work. No matter what I type in it, it never shows up in the email. Any clues
on this?
TIA,
Gail

Re: Questions on Form Handler Results & Downloadable items.
you have several problems
1. your yahoo input field is using an illegal name (names must not have a
space)
2. your page is using fixed html output, the will render forms useless in
any browser other than IE
3. when clicking submit without filling in the form, you don't provide a
clue as to what needs to be filled in

Re: Questions on Form Handler Results & Downloadable items.
Thanks! I got 1 & 3 fixed. I have trouble when using anything other than
fixed. All my objects fly out across the page and won't stay where I want
them to.

Re: Questions on Form Handler Results & Downloadable items.
do you need to fly things on the form page?, if not, set the form page to
dynamic and leave all other pages on fixed
you can even create a new masterborder based on the existing and use it for
the form page
