Email Form

When I try to create an email form in the admin, I get this feedback in the text box:

"Warning: htmlentities() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/hsc/public_html/_cms/subsub/include/inc_tmpl/content/cnt10.inc.php on line 53 "

Any thoughts?

OK found the mistake - only happens if no form field created an error happens that prevents the script to update the db entry -> then form field is an array -> fixed:

in "article.readform.inc.php" line 375 add:

Code: Select all

        } else {
			$content["mailform"] = "";
		}

The complete if() part (line 367-376):

Code: Select all

        if (count($content["mailform"])) {
            $content["form"] = "";
            $mft = 0;
            foreach($content["mailform"] as $key => $value) {
                $content["form"] .= (($mft) ? "\n" : "") . $content["mailform"][$key]["field"];
                $mft++;
            } 
        } else {
			$content["mailform"] = "";
		}

I made the change mentioned above (is it included in one of the patches>) but it's still not working for me. I'm not getting the error message, but noting is appearing. Maybe I'm just using this wrong.

Is the email form meant to create forms on the page?

No it's not in a patch (I have forgotten).

You have to fill in some values - check the form info red error message!!!!

It creates forms frontend.

I don't get any red errors. I just get nothing. It blanks out my text box each time and doesn't add anything.

Code: Select all

It works. Great. Thanks.

One question... The form takes you to a formmailer page which is in German and is not part of the templated system. Is there a way for it to take you to a basic thank you page? Is there a thank you tag to include in the form field?

The formmailer itself is prepared for such thing - I would rework the formmailer in the way that it is itegrated in the frontend script with also redirection to thank you page.
