Hi all, I'm a newbie to PHP and I have only a basic understanding of HTML. I've created a form which looks and work great, however I would like to know if I can embed the form into a HTML page. I have a web site that has a banner accress the top and a navigation pane down the L/H side which is made up of a 2 column table, sort of a template for all pages of the site. If it's possable at all could someone tell me the simplest way of doing it.
Thanks

For the most part you cut and paste the form into your html. Depending on teh version of the generator you used you will need to copy some javascript from the form.html header (<head></head> section) to your page header, and some javascript from the bottom of the form.html page (<script></script> section) to the bottom of your page.

Hi, I have another noob question, I have 2 forms on my site which are very different. I have placed them into 2 different folders as the processor.php files are different. when the form is filled out and you click "submit" you're taken to the confirm page (all good), but when you click on the "click here to continue" i doesn't return to the parent directory. I have entered the URL however it directs me to: www.example.com/contact/index.html instead of: www.example.com/index.html. I now it's able to be done I just cant quite figure it out.

thats it! now we're ready to generate your form. if you encounter any errors, please make sure that you provided the correct database information (if any), and please maintain that everything is case sensitive. also remember to give read+write permissions to the forms directory (located under the phpformgen directory). thank you.
Now creating table 'f1' …

I am getting this error so much I am getting freaked out. I can't resolve it. Does anyone know why is this. I tried creating different databases and usernames with correct password. Neither one of them worked.
hostname is the domain name i guess isn't it. for example: myphpdatabase.com
that is the only suspicion I had. I even tried with ip address of the host. Didn't work.
It just not working out for me although i am a new php user.

Hello all!
I have really liked using this software for 4 years, very simple and easy.
However, this week, my form started giving the error, "You have not filled out all required fields." But after testing, all fields were filled out and the error message was generated every time.
I have completely reloaded the latest software, completely re-built my form and now, after "submit," I get the error message,
Anyone know why this is happening after 4 good years? Did my webhost change something on the server and mess everything up?
Thanks!

Sounds like something changed on the web host. This message "an error occurred while processing this directive" is not familiar to me and I am 99.9%confident that it does not appear anywhere in your form code.
I use a utility called "Uniformserver" to validate my forms before publishing them. This mini web server is really great for testing web pages offline before putting them on the web host. It's also great for validating form function when you suspect something may have changed on your web host's server.
Thank you so much tnteveret1, you are very helpful. I will try your suggestions. I can't imagine why the webhost would mess this up, but it seems like the only logical explanation!

Hi, I am very new to PHP and have been trying to get the form working. I have managed to add some extra fields and upload it to my server. The form displays OK and when all the fields are filled out I can then click the send button. That's where I run into trouble. I get an error and the mail does not seem to get sent. Error message is Warning: fopen(logs/2010-08-02.txt) : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/freedomc/public_html/contact.php on line 260
Error opening file
The line refered to is $fh = fopen($logpath . $timestamp . '.txt', 'w') or die( "Error opening file" );
I hope some one can help.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
This is typically a permissions error. The folder "logs/" must exist and it must have open permissions (try 777 until we find out exactly what is wrong). Once you determine what the real issue is then you can reduce the premissions to only what is required.
so if this is where the form is:
/home/freedomc/public_html/contact.php
then there must be a folder here:
/home/freedomc/public_html/logs/

I've been beating my head against the wall with dealing with this lovely form (not the form's fault!) on Godaddy, Windoze server IIS7. … So I thought I'd ask here. I bet it's a simple fix that I'm just plain missing. It works great as-is on Linux hosting!
There's got to be a simple answer that will make this Windows server happy to send email from these forms… Anyone? Where do I need to jam in a \r\n to make this work or does it go beyond that on this particular platform.
Many thanks for any insight

At the moment I'm integrating phpformgenerator in a application. Therefore I would really like to work with the version 3.0. I don't mind it's beta. Would it be possible to please send me the version 3.0 either by mail or download link? It's been a couple of years now since the beta 3.0 was annouched on your website, so I guess it must be pretty stable by now. I really like to version on your website, and the 2.0 I'm using at the moment just doesn't fit my needs.
Could you please help me with this.
Thanks in advance,
Ronald Roeleveld.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The differences between 3.0 and revious versions of the generator are less functional and more GUI related. This is still a basic form generation platform that can be used as a starting point for more complex forms.
The code is still in Beta and there is no specific schedule defined for release. Please use it as is.
Personally I use the generator to define a basic form and then modify the form to suite my needs. This is exactly the intent for phpFormGenerator although for the basic user who does not know PHP coding, this is a real working form generation tool that can be used to easily create all sorts of working forms.

Within my faith to get a functional Webmail, I already used "phpFormGenerator" from "Fantastico de Luxe from my Hostgator/cPanel. I downloaded this phpFormGenerator" v2.09 from "QuickInstall". Is this a wrong thing for me?
I just got a template for a WebForm (please,see it http://www.petretudor.com/ProgramFiles/) and I needed some help and I used the "Contact" link of above menu of this template and I got musawir@gmail.com prewritten "Compose" message and I used it,but in vain. But you, Musawir, didn't answered me just if I emailed you twice.
Therfore, I'm within this Forum and I thought everyone can help me better and I asked some questions below:
Plese, read them and try to help me punctual asap.
I DO need your professional answer asap and I unpatiently am waiting it.
Before to download and use your phpFormGenerator v2.09 I generated my own webform and I already uploaded to my "cgi-bin" and "www" folders from my Hostgator cPanel/public_html folder.
1. Have I delete or download it before to upload my new webform generated with template phpFormGenerator v2.09?
2. How can I change my phpFormGenerator' folder name saved?
Because I don't like the folder name gave when I generated it. Its url is: http://www.petretudor.com/ProgramFiles/ and I want to change the 'ProgramFiles' name with 'phpFormGenerator' because it wasn't saved within my normal Program Files folder from my PC but it saved within my Horde Webmail within pettud@petretudor_com folder.
3. Can I use my natural language (Romanian) when I generate webform and the users will fill out the desired blank fields?
I'll use this WebForm to my fellow country-men, for Romanians.
4. How can I add the one or two additional drop down fields out of country drop-down field ,(for ex. for 'judet' (State) or sector)?
5. This phpFormGenerator webform has an auto-validate feature and needn't of an additional Validation Form ?
6.When my phpFormGenerator webform is ready ,is it need to upload to my "cgi-bin" and "www" folders of my Hostgator cPanel/public_html folder?
Please, answer me punctual to my above questions.
Thank you anticipate!

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
1. If you loaded 2.09 you can use it as is and forms will not work exactly as they would with 3.0 but they will work. My recommendation would be to remove 2.09 and use the 3.0 Demo site to generate new forms. These new forms can then be loaded on your site using something like FTP.
2. Forms are generated and stored in separate folders. The base folder where the form.html and process.php file exist is not important. The inportant part is that you preserve all files and folders within that base folder. So for instance, your URL http://www.yoursite.com defines a location where your site index.html file resides. You can copy you form.html file, all other files and folders at that level in your form base folder onto your site where your index.html file resides.
3. This is not entirely clear to me because I have never design a foreign language web page but I do know that any form or web page can be converted to this state. When you use the generator, what you see is what you get. When you copy the form to your site then you can modify it for any language you like.
4. Adding fields to an existing form can be done in one of two ways.
4-1.) Your form still exists on the demo site so you can just go back, edit it, and download the new version (it's a demo site so don't count on this lasting more than a day or so).
4-2.) Once you have the form you can edit it as you would any other web page form but you need some knowledge of forms and PHP form processing in order to keep everything in sync.
5. Form validation is not 100% but the basics are included in the form.html file so that nothing is submitted before it is validated. It can be easily modified to include more form fields and/or more sophisticated validation.
6.You load the form files in the same way you load any other html web page to your site. No special folders like cgi-bin are required.

I just downloaded and installed phpformgenerator v 3.0 beta version. I already created my first form in Romanian language. I just uploaded my form to my server within my domain within public_html folder. My webform just works.
Of course, soon I'll edit it to improve its look.
But I still have some problems as follows:
1. Don't appear the image for tip_small for each etichet .Appears a placeholder only. Can you help me to fix this problem?
2. The Submit button is in English and I want in Romanian languge. Can you help me to change its name?
