OK. I finally got my zend form working, validating, filtering and sending the contents to my process page (by using $form->populate($formData);)
Now, how do I email myself the contents of a form when submitted? Is this a part of Zend_form or some other area I need to be looking in?
Thanks!
You can use Zend Mail for this, Zend form does not offer such functions.. but its an nice idea.
In your controleller, after $form->isValid();
if ($form->isValid($_POST)) {
$mail = new Zend_Mail();
$values = $form->getValues();
$mailText = 'My form valueS: ';
foreach ($values as $v) {
$mailText .= 'Value ' . $v . PHP_EOL;
}
$mail->setFrom('user#user.de', 'user');
$mail->AddTo('Me#me.de', 'me');
$mail->setSubject->$form->getName();
$mail->send();
} else {
// what ever
}

I do not think the problem lies with the mail function code, but with my aproach of the $_SESSION variables. I have a form consisting of 5 pages, the fifth being a preview page. Upon the final submission, on the preview page, i want the entire $_SESSION data to be sent to two different email adresses.
I am displaying the data on the preview page as follows:
<?php
//retrieve session data
echo "<b> Varname: </b>". $_SESSION['varname'];
?>
in a form with method="post" and action="mail.php".
In the mail.php, i start the session, and then:
$_SESSION['email'] = $mail;
$_SESSION['varname'] = $varname;
$email_from = 'mail#company.de';
$email_subject = "Mail";
$email_body = "You have submitted the following data: $inhalt.\n";
$to = "mymail#company.de, $mail";
$headers = "From: Company";
mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$headers);
Upon submitting the form the page goes to blank. What exactly am i doing wrong?
I managed to solve the problem in the end, as follows:
$email_from = 'mail#company.de';
$email_subject = "Mail";
$to = ("myadress#work.de," . $_SESSION['email'] . "");
mail($to,"Form submission","Form data:
Inhalt: " . $_SESSION['inhalt1'] . "
");
As I said in the question, the problem was my aproach of the $_SESSION variables. Instead of $_SESSION['varname'] = $varname, i just went directly with . $_SESSION['varname'] .ยด.
So one of my pages consists of a quiz form that has several questions of type multiple choice, the choices are specified as radio buttons. I have been scanning the Symfony documentation to find out how to access form field values inputted by the user. Thing is, this isn;t a doctrine or propel based form, and neither do I require the values to be stored in the database, hence executing a $form->save() makes little sense to me. But I do require access to specific values of my form in my backend once the user hits submit.
Most of Symfony documentation that i have run into doesn't necessarily explain how this can be done. I would assume it would be something to the effect of :
$request->getParameter( 'radio_choices_id selected value ').
Thanks to all who read this and Cheers to the ones who respond to it :)

Hm, it is very simple if I understand your question right)
For widget:
$this->widgetSchema['name'] = new sfWidgetFormChoice(array('choices' => array('ch_1', 'ch_2')));
Ok,in action:
$this->form = new FaqContactForm();
if ($request->isMethod('post')) {
$this->form->bind($request->getParameter($this->form->getName()));
if ($this->form->isValid()) {
$your_val=$this->form->getValue('name');
//or
$your_val=$this->form['name']->getValue());
}
}
In backend in protected function processForm(sfWebRequest $request, sfForm $form)
you have
$form->bind($request->getParameter($form->getName()), $request->getFiles($form->getName()));
if ($form->isValid())
{
$notice = $form->getObject()->isNew() ? 'The item was created successfully.' : 'The item was updated successfully.';
try {
$product = $form->save();
} catch (Doctrine_Validator_Exception $e) {
$errorStack = $form->getObject()->getErrorStack();
$message = get_class($form->getObject()) . ' has ' . count($errorStack) . " field" . (count($errorStack) > 1 ? 's' : null) . " with validation errors: ";
foreach ($errorStack as $field => $errors) {
$message .= "$field (" . implode(", ", $errors) . "), ";
}
$message = trim($message, ', ');
$this->getUser()->setFlash('error', $message);
return sfView::SUCCESS;
}
Before $product = $form->save(); try
$your_val=$form->getValue('name');
//or
$your_val=$form['name']->getValue());
I need a bit of help with redisplaying a form.
Basically, currently a user will fill out my contact form, the form and it's contents are passed to my verification page, and if the recaptcha was entered correctly it goes to a Thank You page.
When the recaptcha is entered INCORRECTLY, I want to redisplay the contact form with the fields already filled out. How do I do this? (As you'll see below, it currently goes to google on incorrect captcha)
Here is my verification code. Any help would be great:
<?php require('sbsquared.class.php'); ?>
<?php
require_once('recaptchalib.php');
$privatekey = "myprivatekey";
$resp = recaptcha_check_answer ($privatekey,
$_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"],
$_POST["recaptcha_challenge_field"],
$_POST["recaptcha_response_field"]);
if (!$resp->is_valid) {
// What happens when the CAPTCHA was entered incorrectly
header("Location: http://www.google.com"); <--- this is the bit that I want to redisplay the form with fields already filled out.
} else {
$sb = New SBSquared;
$name = $_POST['FullName'];
$post_keys = array_keys($_POST);
$my_db_string = "<table>";
$ip_address = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
foreach($post_keys as $field)
{
if($_POST[$field] != "" && $field != "submit_y" && $field != "submit_x" && $field != "submit_x")
{
$my_db_string .= "<tr><td><b>".$field.":</b></td><td>";
if($field == "Email")
{
$my_db_string .= ''.$_POST['Email'].'';
}
else
{
$my_db_string .= $_POST[$field];
}
$my_db_string .= "</td></tr>";
}
}
$my_db_string .= "<tr><td><b>IP ADDRESS LOGGED: </b></td><td>".$ip_address."</td></tr>";
$my_db_string .= "</table>";
if(get_magic_quotes_gpc() != 1)
{
$my_db_string = addslashes($my_db_string);
$name = addslashes($name);
}
$conn = $sb->openConnection();
$dts = time();
$sql = "INSERT INTO `contact_queries` VALUES ('', '$name', '$my_db_string', 'n/a', 0, $dts)";
$result = mysql_query($sql, $conn) or die(mysql_error());
$content = '<div id="main_middle">';
$content .= '<span class="title">'.$sb->dt('Contact').'</span>
<p>'.$sb->dt('Thank you for your enquiry. We will contact you shortly.').'</p>
</div>';
// admin auto email.
$dts = date("d.m.y h:ia", time());
$admin_content = "New contact query at $dts";
$admin_content .= "\n\n--\n\n \r\n\r\n";
mail("email address", 'NOTIFICATION: new query', $admin_content, 'From: email address');
$FILE=fopen("./log/auto-contact.txt","a");
fwrite($FILE, $admin_content);
fclose($FILE);
echo pageHeader($sb);
echo pageContent($sb, $content);
echo pageFooter($sb);
}
?>
You probably already answered this for yourself, but if not you can set ReCaptcha to validate prior to submitting the form, much the same as HTML5 validation. It just won't let the user submit until the Captcha is correct. Now, I don't know if it will refresh the captcha if it is incorrect but most of the time I see people putting it into an iFrame so it doesn't refresh the page when refreshing the captcha.
As an alternative, you can use sessions to keep the data filled in.
Can anyone tell me how could i validate the data on the other page (where was not created the form object)?
The thing is: on the page 'A' i am creating the form object with its own validators and showing the form to the user. But the action goes to the page 'B', where i need to validate the data.
I want to do something like this (page 'B'):
$form = new someForm();
$form->bind($this->getRequest()->getParameter('data'));
if($form->isValid())
{
print 'true';
}
else
{
print 'false';
}
But as you can imagine, it will print 'false'.
I guess it happens due to CSRF protection of forms in Symfony
Try to use this code
$form = new someForm();
$form->disableLocalCSRFProtection();
$form->bind($this->getRequest()->getParameter('data'));
if($form->isValid())
{
print 'true';
}
else
{
print 'false';
}
maybe you could solve this like:
public function executeFoo($request){
$this->form = new fooForm();
$this->getUser()->setAttribute('tmpForm', $this->form);
}
in your form the action has to point to module/bar
there you can do:
public function executeBar($request){
$this->forward404Unless($form = $this->getUser()->getAttribute('tmpForm'));
$form->bind($this->getRequest()->getParameter('data'))
// and so on
}
I have a PHP form that mail()s the form data on submit and then if successful returns them to the referring page (in other words keeping them on the same page as the form) and appends ?success=TRUE to the URL.
The question is, how would I implement the AdWords and Yahoo Search Marketing conversion code snippets to trigger only when the form is submitted? For functionality purposes, it is unfortunately not feasible to send them to another page on submit which would have been the easiest way to do it.
The relevant code from the form submit action that mails the results and sends them back to the homepage is below. I have a hunch it might be as simple as outputting the conversion tracking code snippets in the if statement at the end there but I'm not sure if that is correct or the syntax to properly do that.
if ( isset($_POST['sendContactEmail']) )
{
$fname = $_POST['posFName'];
$lname = $_POST['posLName'];
$phone = $_POST['posPhone'];
$email = $_POST['posEmail'];
$note = $_POST['posText'];
$to = $yourEmail;
$subject = $yourSubject;
$message = "From: $fname $lname\n\n Phone: $phone\n\n Email: $email\n\n Note: $note";
$headers = "From: ".cleanPosUrl($_POST['posFName']. " " .$_POST['posLName'])." \r\n";
$headers .= 'To: '.$yourName.' '."\r\n";
$mailit = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
if ( #$mailit ) {
header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?success=true');
}
else {
header('Location: '.$referringPage.'?error=true');
}
}
Outputting it in the if-Statement would be a possibility, but the script you posted adds another way to do it as it redirects to the $referringPage - if the mail was successfully sent. And that's the only event you want to track a conversion.
So edit the code of $referringPage (the page that holds the form fields) and add:
<?php
if($_GET['success'] == 'true') {
echo "...";
}
?>
"..." ofcourse has to be replaced by the Adwords conversion Code Google gave you.
If you add it to your question, I could even add it to my answer.
