Forms for the Beginner.

HI,
Thanks for the 'mailer.php' script and the Web designer file. I saved the file and then incorporated into my site. Which can be seen here if interested.

Simple yes but there is some quarks... so here some info for all If you creat a form in CoffeCup you should know the following things before you save your form.
1. ADVANCE TAB under explorer -make sure un check the fix for displaying active content
2. if you are having trouble viewing your form in IE 6, 7, 8 only but in Firefox Google Safari
all is well !!!

check your code line on the page that has the form place held, in dreamweaver etc...& if you see this code below ( most likely it will be at the begining and end of your script or it may be anywere in the code )

<!--[if IE]><script type="text/javascript">var xr_swfs=document.getElementsByTagName("object");fo r(var i=0;i<xr_swfs.length;i++){xr_swfs[i].outerHTML=xr_swfs[i].outerHTML;}</script><![endif]-->

Then this may be your issue remove it and all will be well

just putting it out there

Oh Cyborgeek, well done! My non appearance of Coffee Cup Form in i.e. 8.0 solved in a trice.

Brand new to all this. I have read this thread, loaded the file and the graphic, still not sure what I am doing wrong. I want to ad an additional "Contact Form" page to my website, I am pretty sure the answer is in this thread but cant get it done.

This is what I did:
Created a page
I then put the pic for a space saver
went to propertes and added this code
and just the code pops up on preview

Can you give me a step by step, sorry for the ignorance

My website is www.rkimarketing.com

Thanks!

Hi ruffino,

Please attach your xara web designer (*.web) file for us to check.

sledger,

I went to "www.emailmeform.com" and made one there and it works nicely. Does anyone know if there are strings attached to using this site?

Thank you for the reply, I am going to be using this forum a lot I am afraid.

Steve,

Just wanted top let you know that CoffeCup Form Builder is a great tool for building forms, then just use a placeholder and thats it.. Simple...

Hope this helps...

Yes, CoffeeCup is amazing - see a sample here: http://www.acegroomingandboarding.com

just put code in placeholder and that's it.

Is there a way to make the mailer.php do a redirect back to the index page once the form has been submitted?

Thanks in advance.
