How to point my form to Form Tool? - tahsan - Mar 8th, 2010
In the sub-section of test transmission of section of add form, I have to point my existing form php file to Form Tool either by direct method or by code method. Since I am not an expert, I prefer the easier direct method. Question is: can I use direct method for forms prepared in any way? I don'f find it easy to apply the direct method to my form script, the first few lines are like this:
<?PHP
require_once("./includes/visaform-lib.php");
$formmailobj = new FormMail("visaform");
$formmailobj->setFormPage(sfm_readfile("./templ/visaform_form_page.txt"));
$formmailobj->setFormID("d91d4aec-8040-4ce3-a30a-df4d2e9b86a2");
How can I apply the following direct method to the above?:
<form action="http://www.bangladeshembassy.org/formtools/process.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="form_tools_initialize_form" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="form_tools_form_id" value="1" />

Hi,
I'm guessing that your form was built using FormMail then? It looks like the lines you have at the start of your form relate to another script (FormMail).

$formmailobj->setFormID("d91d4aec-8040-4ce3-a30a-df4d2e9b86a2");
So what you need to do is delete those lines so that you are just left with the form tag and the form fields. You should then be able to add in the FormTools code as per the examples.
