Embed a form

(Warwick Smith) #1

Hi,

 

I have a series of Multipage assets. I want to embed a form into one of the multipage-pages that can be submitted by a visitor the site (who is not logged in). Basically it's a "quick comment" custom form (not an asset builder) that will shoot off an email from our public website to our oganisation.

 

Now my problem seems to be as far as I can tell ... The form doesn't know how to submit because it's embedded within another URL (so the send/submit action isn't working). I read up a little that hard-coding the form into the page is a good option, but I wasn't able to get it to work either, however not exactly sure I was doing it right.

 

Does anyone have any really direct instructions on this?

 

Thanks,

 

Warwick

When I say 'embed' I mean, 'nested content'.

The concept of nesting a Custom Form into another page doesn't really work. Caching will prevent the form from being able to submit.

 

I am thinking your best option here (since you are using a Multiple Page asset) is to use an iFrame for the form. I can't think of a better way without a huge amount of hassle.

Thanks Nic, I'll give it a whirl.
