Thanks bananalive for the fast support.

Is it possible to make a default value for Dropdown Selects or radio buttons?
so when a user is shown several options like the following:

option1
option2
option3

without them doing anything "option1" will be selected by default?

Maybe giving us the option to put a character next to the text so that the system can see it is a default value, like:

*option1
option2
option3

The form will know that option1 is the default value.
I know that we can make questions compulsory, but I would prefer some kind of default value, maybe a text box where we can type in a default value if the above idea doesn't appeal to you..

You could use form hook to achieve this.

Form Hook: Form Start:

PHP Code:

if (!$q[7])
{
$q[7] = 3;
} 


Replace 7 with correct question hash

is it possible to have this form work on a closed forum (closed to unregistered users) so they can apply to register to the site (we are selective on members) and it posts the form to a thread (if that forum is not accessible to unregistered users)

[Andrew johnson]

yes i think its does that

[Raptor]

What are the instructions ?

I have it emailing ok - but it wont post

Do you get error message?

Also try attached file it has some changes to allow for posting in forums which user doesn't have access to.

[Raptor]

Works beautifully, clicked installed.

May I ask, how can we set the layout better.

ie.

First Name
Albert Einstein

Would rather it appeared like:

First Name - Albert Einstein
