custom forms - data collection

[DivaVocals]

What a gem of a find!!! Got this working perfectly..

I do have one question.. A little earlier in this thread there was a bit of discussion on making this for work with SSL.. The posted solution is not very clear.. Can anyone confirm if this for will work with SSL and/or how to make the band solution work with SSL.

I'm wondering if accessing a form created using Dr Bytes solution via an EZ Page link (with SSL enabled) would be enough to do the trick??

To have the form process with SSL, you'd need to alter the zen_href_link parameters (I think it's the 3rd parameter that would need to be set to 'SSL') inside the zen_draw_form function call so that when the form's action parameter is produced it will contain the SSL URL instead. This will make the form be processed over SSL, regardless whether the URL in the browser is HTTPS or not.
If you want the browser URL to contain HTTPS, then whatever links you have pointing to the page will have to be manually coded to be in HTTPS.

Thanks for the response. Hope you don't mind me imposing on your expertise for one more thing?? Could I ask you to grade my homework here??

Is this the correct way to make this change?

<?php echo zen_draw_form('customer_questionnaire', zen_href_link(FILENAME_CUSTOMER_QUESTIONNAIRE, 'action=send', 'SSL')); ?>

Without going and actually studying the code, yes, that looks like it's probably correct.

That's good enough for me! Just wanted to make sure that the syntax looked correct.. (I looked at the login form for a little guidance after reading you hint)

Thanks again for the responses, and the awesome contribution!!! I hope the Zen Cart team enjoys the coffee I sent..

If anyone is using the "CAPTCHA using TTF & GD" mod and wanted to add that CAPTCHA mod to the forms created from this mod here's down and dirty what I did:

In the form you created located in "includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates" find this:

</fieldset>

<div class="buttonRow forward"><?php echo zen_image_submit(BUTTON_IMAGE_SEND, BUTTON_SEND_ALT); ?></div>

Paste the following just above this

<?php
// BOF Captcha
if(is_object($captcha) && (!$_SESSION['customer_id'])) {
?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<?php echo $captcha->img(); ?>&nbsp;
<?php echo $captcha->redraw_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_CAPTCHA_REDRAW, BUTTON_IMAGE_CAPTCHA_REDRAW_ALT); ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<label for="captcha"><?php echo TITLE_CAPTCHA; ?></label>
<?php echo $captcha->input_field('captcha', 'id="captcha"') . '&nbsp;<span class="alert">' . TEXT_CAPTCHA . '</span>'; ?>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<?php
}
// BOF Captcha
?>

In your header_php.php located in "includes/modules/pages/YOUR_FORM" find this:

  require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'require_languages.php');
  $breadcrumb->add(NAVBAR_TITLE);

Just below this add:

// BOF Captcha
if(CAPTCHA_CONTACT_US != 'false') {
    require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'captcha.php');
    $captcha = new captcha();
}
// EOF Captcha

Then find this:

   if ($error == false) {

// grab some customer info if logged in
      if(isset($_SESSION['customer_id'])) {

And just above it paste this:

// BOF Captcha Validation
  if (is_object($captcha) && !$captcha->validateCaptchaCode()) {
    $error = true;
    $messageStack->add('customer_questionnaire', ERROR_CAPTCHA);
  }
// EOF Captcha Validation

I think this covers everything I did.. (Hopefully I didn't overlook anything) So far my testing shows this works just perfectly..

Here's the source I used: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showpo...&postcount=284

This post shows how to add the CAPTCHA to the Returns Authorization form, but it was pretty to adapt the instructions here to work with this form.. Hopefully someone else will find it useful too..

Hi DrByte,

I am looking for a module to conduct surveys, where the client meets a series of questions and answers can be analyzed in the admin area.

Thanks
