grafiti4u Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Here is my ecommerce page to create a new account: http://www.bitebuster.com/catalog/create_account.php When people fill out the form and hit Continue, nothing happens. It worked before I added an include file. The client wanted to take out a box that had a Newsletter Option, and add something instead ? the "Where did you hear about us" box. So I created a little html file, and set the php file to include it. The form looks great, but now the form won't submit. It just doesn't do anything. If I take out the following line in the PHP code, where it specifies to get the include then the form will submit successfully: <?php include(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'hearabout.htm'); ?> So I am thinking my problem lied in the include file I created. Could this be because I have added a form within a form? The little html file code I created looks like this: <html> <head> <title>how did you hear?</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body> <table border="0" width="415" align="center" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2" class="infoBox" bgcolor="#ffffff"> <tr class="infoBoxContents"> <td><table border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2" bgcolor="#ffffff"> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="main">How did you hear about BiteBuster?:</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="59" class="main"> </td> <td width="202" class="main"><form name="form1" method="post" action=""> <p> <input name="internet" type="checkbox" id="internet" value="internet"> The Internet<br> <input name="tradejournal" type="checkbox" id="tradejournal" value="tradejournal"> Trade Journal<br> <input name="seminar" type="checkbox" id="seminar" value="seminar"> Educational Seminar<br> <input name="friend" type="checkbox" id="friend" value="friend"> Friend<br> <input name="other" type="checkbox" id="other" value="other"> Other (specify below) <br> <input name="SpecifyOther" type="text" id="SpecifyOther"> <br> </p> </form></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> I am assuming I have to do something in the line: <form name="form1" method="post" action=""> I tried applying the action http://www.bitebuster.com/catalog/create_account.php (this is what the action is in the create_account form itself) , but that didn't work either. This is the last leg of my cart - If you could help me out, I would really appreciate it! Thanks so much! Kristi :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryK Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I know there are contributions for 'how did you hear about us' that are used during the checkout process. I'm not sure whether you could adapt one of them to use on create account instead, but it might be worth taking a look.

greykher Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 First of all, you shouldn't include a full html page like that, it's giving redundant <html> <head> <title> and <body> tags which are unnecesary. I'd remove everything from your included file there except the table and form. Then, I'd move the include line to either before the existing form, or after the existing form; or incorporate it into the existing form somehow, which would mean writing a catch for it on the next page to process it, and removing the <form...> tags from this included file altogether as well.

grafiti4u Posted March 31, 2005 Author Share Posted March 31, 2005 Thanks! You were right - someone clued me in on all that a few days ago and now it works great. Thanks for your time! Kristi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
