    Hello,

    I was able to generate a form without any problems using my FreeBSD machine. But when using my Redhat Linux 7.2 machine I always get the following message after naming the fields no 1 Name:

    "The Field Name for field no.1 was left blank"

    I decided to rename the field to Full Name and the message dissapeared.

    Now, I'm creating a form with 10 fields. Five of the fields are text boxes, three are drop down menus and two are text area. I never get prompted to enter the values for the drop down menu. Also, when I click next and I go to the page where it gives me the options for MySQL I can see that all the fields the I entered in the previous page are incorrectly formatted.

    Any inputs?

    Richard

      Have you tried your input on the demo site? ( http://phpformgen.sourceforge.net/phpform ) See if the problems occur there too. Also, some of the fields might change in the DB page, but thats only for the DB table use, because MySQL doesn't let you create tables with names that have spaces in them. Therefore, the spaces are replaced by underscores. However on your actual form, the names that you chose for fields will show up.

      None of the errors that I'm experiencing are showing in the following web site: http://phpformgen.sourceforge.net/phpform

      In this demo web site I'm able to enter the word "Name" in the first field and I don't get the error. I enter a field with a drop down menu and then I get prompted for the options I will be using in the menu.

      I'm using PHP 4.2 in my RedHat Linux 7.2 server and is not working. I'm using the same form in my FreeBSD and it works perfectly.

      What versions of the program are you using on each? I have not extensively tested out the latest (modified for newer PHP extensions) version, so there might be some bugs in it.

      I tested on each using phpformgen v2.03 and phpformgen v1.0

      Thanks,

      Richard

      Try version 2.02 . Note that if you have the "latest" PHP extensions, you will have problems with global registers (you will need to turn these on).
