Is it possible to receive the radiobutton description in the email?

I have a few options like:

11.25|machine1
12.95|machine2
12.95|machine3

i use the value for price calculation (works fine). But i also want to receive the description to know which machine they've chosen...

Hello,

Yes, this is possible but you will have to add some custom javascripts in order to achieve this. Basically you will have to add a hidden field that will store the label of the selected item.

In the CSS/Javascript section you will have to use a script similar to this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function grabDesc(param)
{
	for(i=0;i<document.getElementsByName('form['+param+']').length;i++)
		if(document.getElementById(param+i).checked)
			for(j=0;j<document.getElementsByTagName('label').length;j++)
				if(document.getElementsByTagName('label')[j].getAttribute('for') == param+i)
					document.getElementById('name_of_hidden_field').value = document.getElementsByTagName('label')[j].innerHTML;
}
</script>

In the Additional Attributes area you will have to add something like this:
onclick="grabDesc('name_of_radio_group');"

Hi,

I am trying to do this and keep getting stuck. Any chance of a bit more information. Which parts of the script do I need to modify?
In the Additional Attributes area you will have to add something like this:


Code:

onclick="grabDesc('name_of_radio_group');"

Is this for the submit button or the radio button?
I have searched the forum thoroughly and found this to be a common problem without any clear solutions.

Thanks for any help,

Mark.
