I've set the form to open in a popup window with no title/scroll/tool bars. It gets filled out and then posted to a forum and emailed. It works wonderfully. I'd like to pass a variable from the link to the forum, through to the forum answers. I've added ?id=$var&cad=$var to the link.. and used the $_GET commands in form.php to pull them, then applied them to a new variable

e.g:

Code:

$id=$_GET['id'];

$cat=$_GET['cat'];

$link="http://www.domain.com?id=".$id."&cat=".$cat;

Then I've added $link to the formanswers template.

$link gets parsed and works, but the $id and $cat variables are not being set.

Is this possibly due to the lack of an address bar in the window where the form displays?

any help would be appreciated. thanks

thanks

When I find time I may add the option to update searchindex.

That would be GREAT, and much appreciated, Erwin.

Excellent hack.

I noticed a bit of a glitch, I don't know whether or not it's been noted/addressed previously. I've been testing my customized setup rather extensively ever since I managed to get it to work. I read earlier that posts made via this form aren't added to a user's post count, and I saw that to be a good thing considering what my form was being used for. However, since I was testing and posting several threads I didn't need, I deleted each one afterwards. The forum is a new installation, and I soon noticed that I had a post count of zero even though I had posts elsewhere not made by the form. I know that the reason for this is because the posts submitted through the form don't add to your post count, while physically deleting a thread takes away from your post count anyway, but I just wanted to point that out. ;)

I use the form to reply to thread feature and it seems that the search index is not getting updated.

Is anyone having this problem?

Thanks,

Do what I do. Make the forum to go the 'edit post' page. When the user clicks 'update' then the post will go to the index.

Any one happen to know a way to make it so the people who have instant email turned on don't get an email? I'm currently using it as a moderator application forum and my staff would like to comment on the applications but if they do the person who sent the app would recieve an email if they have instant subscribe on.

Thanks!

You need to add the variable to the top of the PHP file where variables are checked for security reasons.

Thank's for replying Erwin.

I added the following to the top of the form.php file

Code:

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);



define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'flagcomm'); // change this depending on your filename



$catid=$_POST['catid'];

$cad=$_POST['cad'];

$linkUrl="http://www.domain.com/page.php?id=".$catid."&cad=".$cad."&type=a";





// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################



// get special phrase groups

$phrasegroups = array(



);

But I can't seem to pull the link into the form answers. $linkurl works fine in the answers but the two variables are empty.

I've also added hidden inputs to the form template for both these variables.

Hmm, I am wondering if one of you guys who have worked a lot with this can help me out. What I would like use this for is a confirmation page so basically when a user clicks the "Submit new thread" button in forrumid=106 it takes them to a page that says "did you remember to do this and that?" then if they click "yes" the are redirected to the post page and if they select "no" they receive a can't continue (or something similar).
