You’re right, obeewan.

If you have not yet got a reply to your question regarding native/non-native code that the plugin uses, after disecting it as I did, the code is non-native and part of the plugin, not of TXP.

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
I’m getting very agitated that I can’t get this plugin to work, I created a test section to see how well it works but everytime I hit submit I get a 404 error. I tried some of the things mentioned in this thread but they haven’t worked. I fiddled around in my htaccess file to see if the problem was the info put in there when I created the “test” section but I did it the same way as I did in creating my other sections so that looks right. Help?

Ok, fixed that problem (wrong default charset) but now it still throws a 404 error up whenever I hit Submit.

Tried the change to request uri in the plugin code? That should do it actually.

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
This is PHP code, it has to be entered like this:
action="'.$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].'"
Remember to actually type in the code, not copy and paste, as this forum sometimes changes normal quotes and doublequotes into their nice forms (which do not work in PHP of course).

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Have a look at Obeewans article on editing the comment form to labels to them. Maybe that could be a help on the way.

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
I have actually done some alterations to this plugin aswell making it XHTML compliant aswell as fixing the sent from bug and request_uri bug.
And now I have an article about it. =)

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Good one! Now I’m trying to tweak it to change your divs into definition lists.
But I got a question: when I put < txp:dca_mailto_form email="maildomain.com” / >@ into article body, the form is wrapped with a paragraph < p > tag. How to get rid of it? Do I have to make an extra page template for my contact section?

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Will this take a form tag?
I would like to use this with the great plugin imm_encrypt. I have not quite figured out how to get the two to cooperate.

Re: dca_mailto_form (simple email form)
Nope, its a straight plugin (a tag) itself. What is it that you’re trying to accomplish?
