Hi guys!

Just a quick question. Is it possible to send an email containing the information submitted by a databound form on <cms:if k_success > ? It seems I can email only hardcoded content

Code: Select all

<cms:set submit_success="<cms:get_flash 'submit_success' />" />
              <cms:if submit_success >
                        <div class="alert-success"><p>Booking done.....</p></div>
              </cms:if>
        
      <cms:form
            masterpage='bookings.php'
            mode='create'
            enctype='multipart/form-data'
            method='post'
            anchor='0'
            ><cms:if k_success >
                <cms:db_persist_form
                    _invalidate_cache='0'
                    _auto_title='1'
                />
                <cms:send_mail from=k_email_from to=k_email_to subject='New booking from website'>
                     Information regarding the new booking should be displayed here
                         submitted input field 1 content ...........
                         submitted input field 2 content ...........
                </cms:send_mail>
                <cms:set_flash name='submit_success' value='1' />
      <cms:redirect k_page_link />
            </cms:if>
            ..............
            ..............
       </cms:form>

Not at all!
You can use every single variable available to you at that point (and that includes the contents of the submitted form).

I hope you do recall that the variables containing values of the form fields have 'frm_' prepended. Perhaps this is what is stumping you?

I'd suggest you please place a <cms:dump_all /> in the success block (and do not redirect so as to be able to see all outputted variables). All the variables outputted may be used in the email.

Hope it helps.
