Form Field Order

M

Mark A. Sam

Hello,

I have an email form in which I moved fields around. When the form is
submitted the fields are listed in the original order in the email. I would
like them listed in the order they appear on the form. Can that be done?

Thanks for the help and God Bless,

Mark A. Sam

Hi Mark,

Yes, you'll have to change the order listed in the webbot code.
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" .... .... S-Form-Fields="T1 T2 T3 " -->

Hello Mike,

It doesn't have that syntax. Here is what mine says:

<!--webbot bot="SaveResults"
u-file="../../_private/TruckerAreas_results.txt" s-format="TEXT/PRE"
s-label-fields="TRUE" b-reverse-chronology="FALSE" s-email-format="TEXT/PRE"
s-email-address="(e-mail address removed)" b-email-label-fields="TRUE"
b-email-replyto-from-field="TRUE" s-email-replyto="CurrentEmail"
b-email-subject-from-field="FALSE" s-email-subject="TruckloadsDirect Trucker
Areas" s-builtin-fields
u-confirmation-url="../Corrections/EmailConfirmation.htm"
startspan --><strong>[FrontPage Save Results Component]</strong><!--webbot
bot="SaveResults" endspan i-checksum="6561" -->

In the Saved Fields tab of the Form Properities however it lists the fields,
but in the order they are listed on the page, which is the correct order.

I tried adding values for the tab order but that didn't work.

That didn't do it. I tried cutting and pasting the whole group of fields
back on in a batch and that didn't work. I'm not going to bother with it
anymore.

Thanks for the time.

God Bless,

the form properties I think has a setting where you order the fields to appear in
the actual email - just moving the form fields around won't make a difference.

Right-click the form, Properties and select the fields option - somewhere there
the option for adding and removing fields you want as the emailed infomration
e..g you might not want the time stamp or user details field (which frontpage
adds) to be emailed to you, so you can remove this or any other field, or add
others.

you could just re-do the entire form, and make sure the fields are in the order
you want, then leave it at that without any more playing around with it. Delete
the current form and re-do it from scratch.

However, textarea fields will always appear last in the email when using the FP Form Handler.

Thanks Thomas,

I wasn't aware of that. That is the case that the the fields are textarea
fields.
