Passing data to confirmation page - filch - Apr 2nd, 2010
How does one get data to use on the confirmation page when using the API. I am particularly interested on the submission ID and one or two specific form fields.

Hi Filch,
Since you're using the API, you already have all the form information available on the confirmation page - right up until the point where sessions are emptied.
So, assuming the PHP at the top of your page looks something like this...
PHP Code:
<?php
require_once("path/to/global/api/api.php");
$fields = ft_api_init_form_page();
ft_api_clear_form_sessions();
?>You can then use the $fields variable to extract whatever information you want, like $fields["submission_id"].
Hope this helps -
Ben
