    GCW_07 - 2008-01-27

    Hello

    This is a great form tool, but I am having some problems with the returned form email.  I placed the spaces in between lines of the form and result email for clarity.  I have tried this layout and other layouts a few times and received the same mixed up results.  Could it be something with the hosting service?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

      I do know that version 3.0 will sometimes mixup the field numbers.  This happens when you create a field and then decide to move it up or down relative to other fields.  When you finish the form the results are mixed up but the data is still collected.  You will need to identify the field numbers in the form.html and then straighten out the field numbers inthe processor.php file.  This will fix the mixup. 
      The Array and 1,2,3 results are due to the type of field you used.  The array has to be expanded if you want to see th earray data, the numeric selections will have to be mapped to some meaningful text message.  Let me know if you still need help.
