|
|
Hello, I am a new Premium Member using the forms for the first time and seem to be having an issue that lots of people have. I have already read through the posts and tried many suggestions you have given, as well as read all the FAQs I could find.
My code for the form copies into a Joomla template and the form appears on the web page just fine. However, I have submitted many times over the last few days to test out the form, and I do not receive the submitted form. I have checked the email accounts that it's submitted to and everything seems to be working, otherwise. Also...my redirect page is not functioning...after submitting the form, it just resets. I wanted it to go "home".
Here is my location of my form:
http://www.industrialconsolidatedservices.com/get-a-quote.html
This is a very important form for us on our site...please let me know if you see anything I can do to fix this as soon as possible. Thank you! |

Good Day,
The issue is that the form HTML on your web site is significantly different than the form code that we have provided. I am not familiar with Joomla, but it appears that the software you are using to embed the form HTML is altering it to the point that it will not function. While several items within the code are different, the specific one that is causing the form to not send is:
Code on your site:
Code: |
<form name="contactForm" method="post"> |
Code for the form that we provided:
Code: |
<form name="contactForm" method="post" action="http://www.mycontactform.com/sendform/sendform.php"> |
As you can see, the form on your website is missing the 'action' portion of the HTML. This portion is key as it tells the web browser where to submit the form data for processing. Without it, when the submit button is hit, it will simply refresh the web page.
Sincerely,
Nick Ladd
