Forms problem

Hi all,

My site http://www.elephantcoasttourism.com has got about 250 product owners,(accommodations and /or touroperators)created with smartsection.
On every product page is currently a link to one general liaise form.
Is there a way that i can have the product page from where the form is clicked, to appear in a formfield?
In other words: if a visitor clicks the enquiry link on the AAA lodge page, the name AAA lodge should automaticaly appear somewhere in the data of mail that is sent to the admin.
I know there is a solution in cloning the form and linking each product to its specific form, but liaise only has got 2 digits in the form_id and i need 250 forms.....

Any suggestions are welcome!

Edwin

Hi Edwinspie,
You only need 2 lines of code!

Open file liaise/include/form_render.php

Add around line 104:

le="color: #000000"><?php $form_output->addElement(new XoopsFormHidden("ID", $ID)); //add this line $form_output->addElement(new XoopsFormHidden("URL", $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'])); //end


Then open liaise/include/form_execute.php

Replace around line 276

le="color: #000000"><?php //replace the original line for this one $xoopsMailer->assign("MSG", $_POST['URL']."n".implode("n", $msg)); //end if( count($err) < 1 ){ if( !$xoopsMailer->send(true) ){ $err[] = $xoopsMailer->getErrors(); } }


Then just add a link to the liaise form under a product page.

I was needing this to, thanks for the sugestion!

Hi Trabis,

In one word: GREAT!


One small problem though: all the results in the mail get an extra letter "n" at the end of every field.
( jan becommes jann, new york becomes new yorkn and so on )

I am far from a coder but i see in your code for the form execute, that you use the letter "n" two times between brackets(as a value????)

Should I change somthing here ?

Thanks a million already for your solution!

That is because the presented code deletes the SLASH \ infront of the n
le="color: #000000"><?php //replace the original line for this one $xoopsMailer->assign("MSG", $_POST['URL']."SLASHn".implode("SLASHn", $msg)); //end


Read for the word SLASH the symbol: \

Thanks Shine! The code was correct yes but copyng it to this Box deleted the slash. It is a bug...
So where is "n" it is suposed to show "\n"
