My custom form isn't showing up!

[gogoguerilla]

I've created a custom html form (using a 3rd party formmail.php), but when i put the form html into the content block to be displayed on the site, none of the form elements (text boxes, radio buttons, etc.) appear - only the text does.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

hello

how did you insert the e-mail form to the phpwcms system!?
and why did you use an 3rd party formmailer!?

I inserted the code into the "html" content element.

I'm using third party because I need to have the the user to be able to select the recipient.

hello

sorry but you can create with the phpwcms formmailer also your own mail form. if i'm wrong so please correct me.

Right; however, if even if I change the ACTION to the phpwcms formmailer (and still use my own html to design the form), the form elements still do not appear...

I've attached the code I'm using:

Code: Select all

<form ACTION="mailapp/emailform.php" method="post" name="boardform" target="_self">

<input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="1000000">
<input type="hidden" name="path_to_file" value="uploaded/files">
<input type="hidden" name="require" value="subject">
<input type="hidden" name="ar_file" value="mailapp/autoreply.txt">
<input type="hidden" name="ar_subject" value="Your message was sent!">
<input type="hidden" name="ar_from" value="noreply@thesisters.org">
<input type="hidden" name="env_report" value="REMOTE_HOST,HTTP_USER_AGENT">
<table>
 <tr>
  <td>
<p>To whom do you wish to send a message?</p>
<p>
    <select name="recipient">
     <option value="email1@domain.com">RECIPIENT1</option>
     <option value="email2@domain.com">RECIPIENT2</option>
     <option value="email3@domain.com">RECIPIENT3</option>
      </select>
</p>
  </td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td>Your Name:</td><td><input type=text name="name" size=40></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td>Your Email:</td><td><input type=text name="email"></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td>Your Phone:</td><td><input type=text name="phone_no"></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td>Subject:</td><td><input type=text name="subject"></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td>Message:</td><td><textarea name="message" cols="40" rows="5"></textarea></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td colspan="2">You can use this form to send us a file (i.e. an image for the Mistress of Archives). Maximum file size is 1MB.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
  <td>Attach File:</td><td><input type="file" name="attachment"></td>
 </tr>

 <tr>
  <td colspan="2"><input type="submit"><input type="reset"></td>

Oops! Stupid me.. There were some invisibles in the form code that were keeping the code from rendering properly. It is working now... http://thesisters.urbanesque.org/index.php?contactboard
