Hi,

I´m testing the demo site and reading the documentation but I still don´t know if this component suits all my needs... my questions are these:


1.- I have this code in the default value of a textbox field and it works but... how can I make this with an external dabase?

//<code>
$db =& JFactory::getDBO();
$db->setQuery("SELECT username FROM mo5yi_users WHERE email=' This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it '");
$result = $db->loadResult();
$result =$result.'SUFIJO';
return $result;
//</code>

2. - how can I get the value of a previus field (before submitting the form) to use it in the previous select? I mean instead of using WHERE email=' This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ' something like WHERE email=EMAIL(VALUE). This would be something similar to calculation field but getting values from an external database.

3. - How can I force going to next page (in multipage form) when checking an option box without having to press the NEXT button.

4. - If I go back (in multipage form) how can I uncheck any options in an option box?

5. Is there a way to disable validation only in back button but not in next button?

5. - How can I customize the pdf and email?

Thanks a million and keep the good work!!

1. In order to connect to an external database, please relate to the following article:
http://docs.joomla.org/Connecting_to_an_external_database

2. To achieve this scenario, you will have to use AJAX. Keep in mind that it will require solid scripting knowledge.

3. You can call the change page function on what field you like (the function to change page is rsfp_changePage)

4. On a multiple selection list, you can deselect an item by clicking it while holding the control button.

5. The validation is performed only when clicking on the "next" button, not on the "previous".

6. You can configure the emails as per instructions from this article:
http://www.rsjoomla.com/support/documentation/view-article/74-how-to-configure-emails.html

The PDF's layout can be customized as well, information on this topic can be found here

Hi Cosmin,

Thanks a lot for your help.

Aabout the question 4 I will try to explain it better.

4. - If I go back (in multipage form) how can I uncheck any options in an option box?

The situation is as follows:

I have a multipage form, in the first page I only have a RADIO GROUP where no option is checked by default, I choose an option and go to next page. Then I click back button and the browser remembers the option I selected first time. I don´t want this to happen, so I want no option cheked again.

I don´t want to reset the form just that option group, because I can face the same problem in next pages too...

Thanks a lot!!

For example you can create a javascript function like the one I provided below, and call it when clicking the previous button.

Hi again, my friend.

My radio group name is: genero.

I have this in Additional Attributes of my button: onclick="limpiar();"

And in the Javascript of the form I have this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function limpiar(){
document.getElementById('genero').reset();}
</script>

Well, It DOES NOT WORK and I can´t understand why.

I also would like it to work in the back button of a multipage.

¿Can you please help again?

Thanks a lot in advance
