Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
I hope this isn’t completely obvious, but I was wondering how to apply styles to the way the input forms/fields look like? I would like to be able to change the border style, size, colors, font, etc. of the form and submit button. There’s no attribute for class or id…so I’m wondering if there’s a way around this?
Btw, I’m aware that you could just set the style for input or textarea but I have more than one form on the site and don’t want the same styles to apply to all of them. I’d prefer to be able to add the styles only to the contact form in specific.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
EDIT: I was having a dumb moment. I figured out how to style the forms after all!
Another question I have- how would I go about getting the sender’s computer host/name as you normally would with a PHP script like gethostbyaddr($REMOTE_ADDR)? I know how to get the IP address, browser info, etc. but I’m having trouble with this one. Any ideas?

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
I’ve figured out how to customize the style, and along the way I discovered something odd. For the txp:zem_contact_email field, the help file says it contains the same attributes as txp:zem_contact_email. However, I noticed that it won’t recognize the size attribute for me. Specifying the size for other fields worked just fine, but it just wouldn’t work for the email field. In the end, I had to work around it via CSS- but I thought I’d mention that the size attribute isn’t working for the email field.

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Id just like to bump the BUMP of NeilA. Can this plugin be set to automatically copy the inquirer on the email.

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Hoi,
I have a form who likes like this :
<code>
<div id=“submenu”>
<txp:zem_contact mailto=“postmaster@tamarawobben.nl”>
<p><txp:zem_contact_text label=“Name” required=1 /></p>
<p><txp:zem_contact_email required=“1” /></p>
<p><txp:zem_contact_textarea required=“1” /></p>
<p><txp:zem_contact_submit /></p>
</txp:zem_contact>
</div>
</code>
and in my page section there is :
<code>
<txp:if_section name=“contact”>
<txp:output_form form=“email” />
</txp:if_section>
</code>
But now i get a error -message that to-adres is missing.
But i have put in the first sectence.
How can i make it work now ?

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Assuming you are using the “reborn” version of the plug-in as opposed to zem’s original version, you need to use the attribute “to” instead of “mailto”. There are one or two other things that may have changed. For instance “yes” and “no” are now used instead of “1” and “0”. You should double-check the help text.

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
thank you,
The mail-to change into to did the trick.
Does anyone know if the Captcha-plugin can work together with this reborn-plugin ??

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Hi,
I found a small bug in the plugin code that prevents validation if label="" is used in the <txp:zem_contact> tag.
Line 209: ( $label ? (n.'</fieldset>') : (n.'<div>') ).
should be: ( $label ? (n.'</fieldset>') : (n.'</div>') ).

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Lot of bugs with this plugin. Also with the previous version. Has there been any answer from Zem on future plans? What is clearly needed is someone to pick this plugin up and run with it. Wish I knew enough about PHP but I am only intermediate skill level :-(

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
That’s odd…I’m using the <code>label=” “</code> but it’s validating fine, I think. We’re talking about xhtml validation right? But that aside, things seem to be functioning okay in other areas as well (from what I can see after testing it left and right).

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
That’s because you are using label=" " and I used label="". The space seems to make the difference. In the first case the <fieldset> tags are used (that have the closing slash in the code), in the second case the <div> tags. Not that I understand why it is the way it is… :/

Re: Plug-in: zem_contact_reborn
Thanks Els. :)
Both Tranquillo and Anura have copies of the template so we shall see what we shall see.
Make sure you have the latest version. Some bugs have been dealt with already. Changing behaviour or adding new functionality is something else.
Version .04 added.
