I'm trying to create a custom Thank You page. I have an opt in form on my website, stopdietingforever.com, and the default - unchangeable - Aweber Thank You page does not work for my situation. When someone fills in their name and email address on the Aweber form, I just need them to receive (be redirected to?) a simple Thank You page that tells them to check their email so they can confirm their request before receiving the report they have asked for. I'm trying to figure this out on phpFormGenerator but no luck. I know NOTHING about coding so I'll need help figuring out where & how to put the Thank You code so it works. Thank you very much for your help!

You can view the "confirm.html" page in a browser if you specified this option when you created it. You can add this line to your processor.php file and create any html file you want and it should display after the form is processed.

There's a long list of forms on that link. Could you tell me which one is the "Thank You" form? That particular term is not used on any of them. Thanks so much!

I did not send you a link so I have no idea what you are talking about.
Make your own thank you page.
Name it thanks.html
Change your processor.php file to replace
include("confirm.html");
with
include("thanks.html");
If that line does not exist then add it in that location, just before
}
else {
echo "Invalid Captcha String.";
If you still have no clue then send me your processor.php file.

Hi-
When I went to that link I found a list of forms but nothing says "Thank You." Could you tell me which form will work? Is it going to be difficult to figure out how to put the code where it needs to go on my website? I'm sure this would only that you a few minutes, and I'm trying to learn, but I may need a more in-depth explanation of how to do it. Thanks for all your help.

You're talking about the link I posted to the auto form generator. Ignore the list of forms other people are making and create your own by entering a new name for a form in the box at the top of the page, then click start and follow the directions to auto-generate the form. This is just if you want to have this web interface help you create the fields and validation for the form, instead of downloading it and fiddling with things yourself.
If you want to add a custom thanks page, you can do that too, as TNT has been suggesting. You need to create your own html page to point the code to.
Or, you can use the form generator on the link and add custom thanks text in the "Message" box under "Confirmation". If that's not enough, you can even redirect people who've filled out your form to a page of your own that you've made in the "Redirect To" section.

Using the phpFormGenerator you can add custom text to the "Thank You" message very easily. There's a box for that on the setup form :)

I'm not sure what this is "unchangeable - Aweber Thank You page" but your processor.php file has code at the bottom that looks like this:
include("confirm.html");
}
else {
echo "Invalid Captcha String.";
}
You can view the "confirm.html" page in a browser if you specified this option when you created it. You can add this line to your processor.php file and create any html file you want and it should display after the form is processed.
