    FYI, and for what it's worth, the code was all in place, but a simple typo was made in creating the modules/pages/band_signup/header_php.php file. ... instead of header_php.php, it was mistakenly loaded up as header.php.php.

    I share this simply for the benefit of others who might have some troubles when creating custom pages for their site ... filename accuracy is important ;)

    Nice site Wayne... all the best in your upcoming launch!

    This thread is really good! I am a complete ZC and PHP novice, and I'm trying to implement something similar to this.

    I would like to create a form like the one here, but I need to treat it like an item to be purchased. The intended use is for a youth soccer league online registration. I need to collect some basic information that will get stored in the database and then accept a credit card payment. Is ZC the right solution for this?

    Do they really need to open in a new window? ...or did you just suggest that so you don't have to mess with the cart code?

    You could easily change one of the tutorial pages into a form like I did here if that suits your needs or use my "add additional pages" hack so that it's linked from the main menu.

    If you really need it in a separate window though that shouldn't be hard either.

    Check out the Rolex Repair Form link in the Information sidebox on this page:

    http://www.uswatchservice.com

    Is this functionally what you need?

    Nothing like raising something from the dead...

    Is this page somewhere live where I could see what it looks like?

    Just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous.

    Default looks like site registration expired at one point

    FYI: Site used to look like this before it expired.

    Thnk you Dr. Byte. I was lost in a miasma of variables trying to do something like this. I kept getting close, but was always missing something. Your generosity in taking the time to help and sharing your experience is deeply appreciated. Your example has fixed all my problems. Thanks so much for your help. ::chrs

    Then everything from "ENTRY_NAME" down to "ENTRY_ENQUIRY" would get replaced with your form.

    This file checks for logic, errors, etc, and if OK, sends the message off to you, by joining all the fields together into the $message variable. It reads info from the form as $_POST['variable'] names.

    This contains the display-text variables to be put into your template.

    Hi, iv done the above...(want to add the field 'book title')

    1. On the contact us page it does not display book title?? why is that?

    2.the message sends. But in the email i only recieve the name, email, message..no book title??
