Hi,

i try to submit dropdown-box values from one rsform to a second rsform on the same website.
I tried out several methods but non is working.

1. i tried to change the method post to get like this:

$formLayout = str_replace('post','get',$formLayout); ----this is working i get a link like this now

form[tag][]=Option+2&....

2. now i try to to insert the tag-value like this in the next rsform

//<code>
$myparameter_value = JRequest::getVar('tag');
return $myparameter_value;
//</code>

but nothing will show up. Why?

the only working method is like this

?tag=3&.... then the value will show up.

is there no $POST solution for this? Do i have to use the GET method?

BR

Hello,

You can try the following approach presented here:

www.rsjoomla.com/support/documentation/v...-different-form.html

Basically this uses the {global:submissionid} placeholder, which returns the ID of that particular submission from your first form. Afterwards a script(as you can see in the above article) is used to change the placeholders of your first form that are actually used within the second form. A more detailed explanation is provided above.

$formLayout = str_replace('[','',$formLayout);
$formLayout = str_replace(']','',$formLayout);

this did the job so i got no [] in the generated link (Scripts -> PHP Scripts ( $formLayout))

and called the value with this (dropdown menu!) on the next form

//<code>

$options = array('Dezember', 'Jänner', 'Februar', 'März', 'April');

$selected_option = JRequest::getVar('formmonat');

$items = "|

---

\n";

foreach ($options as $options_item) {
$items .= $options_item."|".$options_item;

if ($options_item == $selected_option) {
$items .= "[c]\n";
} else {
$items .= "\n";
}
}

return trim($items);
//</code>
