Huge form - Error: Forbidden on Finalize

[Aryl]

I have been struggling with this for days.
I have a huge form with 280 fields, over half are textboxes or textareas that are visible to the form only if a radio button is set to No.
After setting the field sizes or if I try to skip field sizes, I get Error: Forbidden at the top of the page when I try to finalize.
I can split the form into 2 and each works, but I really need it to be only one form.

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks,
Aryl

Well, I can only get around 250 fields before I get Error: Forbidden. I can't even add fields to the form within FormTools once the field count gets over 240 (maybe less).
MySQL allows other programs to have all 280 fields without a problem.
I even tried setting all the fields to Large, with same result. I guess i am out of luck with FormTools for this project.

Thanks,
Aryl

Aryl,

Your issues might be attributed to your server, your host might have the max_input_vars setting set: http://www.php.net/manual/en/info.config...input-vars

This setting limits the max size of POST and GET variables, which will cause issues for larger forms.

To add more fields on the Edit Form -> Fields tab, one way to get around it is just to limit the number of fields displayed per page. That will solve it and allow you to add more fields.

Cheers,

Joe

Thanks, Joe,

I have worked around getting all the feilds into the database. What a pain getting the view reordered.

Per my host, they doesn't have max_input_vars set.
I have also discovered that the error still comes up unless I reduce the number of radio buttons.

Thanks for your help,
