Adi, Very many thanks, how could I be so blind to that!

That’s OK. It happens to me all the time. It was only when I blindly pasted your code into my test bed that the helpful Textpattern provided the answer!

Adi,

You know, in this case, the profound annoyance I felt with myself for missing the names vs name error was surpassed by the absolute delight I experienced when the form began to behave as it should. It is a mini poll aimed at members of an Institute and needed to include verification that the respondent is a bone fide member. The error checking and verification that your plug-in provides makes it straightforward to do with ZCR. Very many thanks again.

Joe

Adi, this is another amazing plugin. I read through the documentation, and I have a quick question. Can you determine if two fields are the same value? For instance, in a contact form, having a field for an e-mail address, and then a second field to type in the e-mail address again, and then somehow verifying they’re the same value?

Hi Kevin.

Sounds feasible – I’ll look into it.

hello, seams to me that some break; are missing in adi_contact_validate :

case 'phone':
                            $ok &= preg_match("/^[0-9x\ \+\-\(\)\.,]*$/i",$field_value);
                        case 'url':
                            $ok &= preg_match("/^(?:http:\/\/)?(?:[\w-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,6}$/i",$field_value);
                        case 'custom':
                            if ($pattern)
                                $ok &= preg_match($pattern,$field_value);

Took some time to figure out.
regards

You’re quite right! Thanks for pointing out my not-so-deliberate mistake. Strangely enough, I spotted it last night when looking into Kevin Potts’ request. It’ll be fixed in the next update.

planeth · 2009-06-19 10:55:19

You’re welcome !
I’ll check for updates.

This looks like a very useful plugin, but unfortunately I’ve had trouble getting it to work. There seems to be a problem with this plugin’s conditional field requirement feature in cases where one of the fields is a checkbox and the other is not.

The form I’m working on has a checkbox where the user indicates their preference for getting a sales call. If they check the box, a bit of JavaScript reveals and enables the phone number field. I want the phone number field to be required only if the user checked the box indicating that calls are okay. Here’s the code I’m using for that part of the form:

<ul id="phone-fields">
  <li><txp:zem_contact_checkbox name="prospect-phonepref" label="I want a sales associate to call me." required="0" break="" /></li>
  <li id="optional-phone"><txp:zem_contact_text name="prospect-phonenum" label="Phone Number" required="0" min="7" max="30" break="" /></li>
</ul>

<txp:zem_contact_submit>Request Free Trial</txp:zem_contact_submit>

<txp:adi_contact_combo names="prospect-phonepref" checkbox="1" require="prospect-phonenum" message="If you want us to call you, please provide your phone number." />

The form presents the error message regardless of whether the checkbox is checked. Unless I’ve misunderstood the plugin’s documentation, this should work… right?

Hi Adam, I’ll look into it.

Thanks. :)

Version 0.3 available for download:

enhancement: new adi_contact_validate option – type=“equal” (for Kevin Potts)
fix: adi_contact_combo now processes an unticked checkbox correctly (as not being a field of interest) (thanks Logoleptic)
fix: adi_contact_validate coding error (thanks planeth)

Usual terms & conditions apply.

Salutations from the UK and thanks for this plugin. Looks good. I’m using it for the first time on a site now. Could you let me know if the adi_contact_spam tag changes the class of any spam-laden form item too?

Greetings. The short answer is “no it doesn’t”, the long answer is “it probably should, so let me look into it”.

Those are both great answers. I thought I was doing something wrong — thanks Adi.
