Re: Hi everyone, form problem, anyone up for it?

I installed pHpForm to process applicant for employment, i am testing on

http://winnershosting.com/index.php?main_page=page_3

and i did a new category in the catalog to have an employment section as you can see on the menu bar at

http://winnershosting.com/

under employment none of the forms work and cant figure out why, could it be the Zen Cart cant register the form from another program or that pHpform cant be use along with Zen Cart

Since whatever you're doing is a function of phpform, it's probably advisable to research the phpForm documentation on how to set it to operate differently.

I also strongly recommend that you research and test whether that software is secure or if it opens your site to vulnerabilities. I've heard less-than-flattering things about that package.

As for forms inside Zen Cart, why not use the pre-packaged method discussed here: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4855

Um ... what "page" would that be?
Maybe you need to put that content on "page_4" or something? Or maybe an EZ-page?
You will have to create the page first, then point your form script to it.
Whatever it is, you'll need to tell your phpForm script what to point to.
To figure out how to do that, you'll have to consult the folks who support the phpForm software.

Either that or you could use the script I mentioned, which presents a thank-you message on-screen after submission, but can only do that because it's designed to use built-in Zen Cart functionality, which can't be done using the phpForm script you are using.

Re: Hi everyone, form problem, anyone up for it?

If I was going to do a form in Zen Cart how would I go about it, does Zen Cart has a form feature within it? What i am trying to do is this, i am fixing to put and ad locally requesting sales people the application will be thru the site as it is on

http://winnershosting.com/index.php?main_page=page_3

After submiting the for it goes into a self thank you page, i would like that page to come up inside Zen Cart, as it does on the log in page where it has the registration for then goes to the congratulation your account has been creates can that be done but with the forms items i want on it.

An entire thread is devoted to that concept, as mentioned in my earlier post:> DrByte:
