Using the data from the form and pre-popping in the thank you page - jcnickson72 - Dec 13th, 2012
Hi there, any suggestions or help would really be appreciated.
I am trying to create a contact / order form.
Once the user has selected an options I would like to pass the data on to the final or success page.
This means the user enters 5 plates and 5 cups then the the order is sent to the email defined and success page needs to display the results of the order.
Please assist me in this as I am having a difficult time with this.
Thank you

Take a look here at the 'Pass On' checkbox: http://docs.formtools.org/userdoc/?page=edit_form_fields_tab
The Pass On column is only needed for "direct" submissions. If your form posts the form content to process.php, this column lets you choose what information should be passed to the Redirect URL (found on the Edit Form ยป Main tab) in the query string. e.g. If you had a form field called first_name and checked the Pass On column here, the redirect URL would become something like http://www.yoursite.com/thanks.php?first_name=Tom. This lets you access the form submission data on your "thank you" page.
