I followed the example in the SDK to get my form working. I modified the "redirect_node_to" 2 - so after a form submit, the form should resubmit to the #2 node page (my homepage) - and nothing seems to be taking - is there a bug in the code for collecting info, or the email template?

Any tips on how to get this working would be greatly appreciated, it's the last part of the site I'm building.

Thanks again.

Not really a lot of info to work with I'm afraid.

Can you turn debuging on? The debuging output is often quite helpful when things are not working as they should.

What version are you using? What IS happeneing when the form is submitted?

Cheers

First off, thanks for replying - it really is appreciated.

Version is 3.1.1 - the latest release.

I turned on the debugging for the form page and it looks like this:

End

So, what's happening is, I'm submitting the form, the email that's supposed to be sent to email receiver isn't getting sent, and I'm ending up at /index.php/user/content/action - the location in the form action, with nothing on my screen.

So, I fear there's something I can't see wrong with this - and I really appreciate any help you can offer.

Here is the debug for the resultant page -

Nothing stands out in the debug output. Can you post the template you are using? Are you sure that the template you have modified is the one being used?

Here fragments of the information collector template (design/cfd/templates/node/view/full_class_13.tpl) we use on this site http://www.cfd.rmit.edu.au/

{default content_object=$node.object
content_version=$node.contentobject_version_object
node_name=$node.name}
<form method="post" action={"content/action"|ezurl}>
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.form_description}
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="left">
<tr>
<td valign="middle" width="100">First name:</td>
<td valign="middle"><input class="register" type="text" size="15" name="ContentObjectAttribute_ezstring_data_text_{$node.data_map.first_name.id}" value="" /></td>
</tr>
...
...
...
<tr>
<td colspan="2" valign="middle"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="middle">Email:</td>
<td valign="middle"><input class="register" type="text" size="15" name="ContentObjectAttribute_ezstring_data_text_{$node.data_map.email.id}" value="" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>

<td colspan="2" valign="middle"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="middle"> </td>
{section name=ContentAction loop=$content_object.content_action_list show=$content_object.content_action_list}
<td valign="middle" align="left"><input type="image" src={"btn_submit.gif"|ezimage} alt="Submit" width="49" height="22" border="0" name="{$ContentAction:item.action}" value="{$ContentAction:item.name}" /></td>
{/section}
</tr>
</table>

<input type="hidden" name="ContentNodeID" value="{$node.node_id}" />
<input type="hidden" name="ContentObjectID" value="{$content_object.id}" />
<input type="hidden" name="ViewMode" value="full" />

</form>

{/default}

Also here is the template that generates the email:

design/cfd/templates/content/collectedinfomail.tpl

{set-block scope=root variable=subject}{"Collected information from %1"|i18n("design/standard/content/edit",,array($collection.object.name))}{/set-block}
{set-block scope=root variable=email_receiver}{$object.data_map.email_receiver.content}{/set-block}
{set-block scope=root variable=redirect_to_node_id}2{/set-block}

{$collection.object.name}
{"The following information was collected:"|i18n("design/standard/content/edit")}

{section name=Attribute loop=$collection.attributes}
{$Attribute:item.contentclass_attribute_name}:
{$Attribute:item.data_text}

{/section}

You should also check the mail server logs to see what is anything is happening to the mail.

Hope this helps.
