API - Blank form browser display after API integration - im4u_fforum - May 10th, 2013
Hi,
I have been trying to set up my form using the code process detailed on the how to do link on Form Tools add form page. After inputting the steps in the guide ..adding a single page form with the API, when I try to open the form on the browser it shows a blank page. this also happens with the Thank you page. And then I get error on test submission.
Could anyone help me know where I am going wrong. As far as i can understand, I have got the right path to the api file as the browser does not return any error.
many thanks

and the php code:
<?php
require_once("http://imanage4you.com/f_tools/global/api/api.php");
$fields = ft_api_init_form_page(8, "initialize");
$params = array(
"submit_button" => "submit",
"next_page" => "thankyoutrial.php",
"form_data" => $_POST,

HI Alok,
The path to the API needs to be an absolute or relative path to on your server not the URL.
require_once("http://imanage4you.com/f_tools/global/api/api.php"); should be something like
require_once("/server/www/f_tools/global/api/api.php"); Please note "/server/www/" is just an example.
Cheers,
Joe

Hi Joe
Here I am again.
First of all thank you once again for your help. I have been able to integrate the api form and have added the validation process too and tested it in many ways. It is working well.
A bit excited about it now...and want to do something more....is there a way I can change the colour of the error meassage that pop up if the fields are incorrectly filled? I have seen in some forms that they come up as red.
Another thing..I have noticed when i input all the information in the fields with a wrong infomation into one of them like wrong email...and press submit..the name and the wrong email are still displayed in the fields but the entered text (comments) disappears. Is it programmed this way?
Manay thanks and best wishes

Hi Alok,
The font color can be changed by overriding the style for the class="error".
Hope this helps.

Joe
