I have a form that I would like to have emailed to me. I
want to have the subject line based on 2 form fields that
have been filled out by the client.
I read a previous post explaining how to do this with
hidden inputs and using the onclick command. Below is a
copy of the post I copied:
In the form, right click | Form Properties | Advanced |
Add | Name the field (say: thesubject) and give it a
value, then create one for the "rest" of the subject
(say: rest).
To do the concatenation in the submit button add an
onclick event handler
onclick="this.form.thesubject.value =
this.form.subject.value + " " +
this.form.rest.value;return true;" So if subject =
Complaint and if rest = From Web then thesubject will =
Complaint From Web when the submit button is clicked. Now
use thesubject as your field name in Form Properties
Options
I have followed the instructions only to have the email
sent to me with the subject being whatever value I
originally set for 'thesubject'
I have included the 'test' code to see if I can get it to
work. I continue to get the same negative results (email
sent to me with subject line 2)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jack
