Wizards make it easier to configure what happens to the data when a user submits your form and what the users see after submitting the form. The wizards are accessible from the form designer toolbar via the one button labeled Form Action and another labeled Doc Action. The action settings are summarized in the form properties form info Form Info tab.

After the user submits the form, the browser will be redirected to another URL, which you supply in the  URL field. You must include the http:// prefix (e.g., http://myhost.com/thankyou.html). The application can have a Form Action Base URL which you set in the application properties. For example, you can have http://myhost.com/ in the application  baseURL and simply “thankyou.html” in the Form Action URL field.

You can use a form field template in the URL field. Ex: http://localhost:8082/{URL!encode=false}. The encode=false template parameter is important to avoid mangling the URL. See Templatized String Parameters for details.

Show In

These are the same options as described under the display message wizard above. Unless you have created a special page that you know will fit correctly within the form’s iframe you should not choose iframe. Choose the Parent or Top option instead.

Note

Forwarding users to a web page that is located in a different domain will not work, with or /without the use of templatized strings.

 

Forward to Paypal

When the form is submitted, users will be forwarded to Paypal to complete payment. This multi-step wizard guides you through configuration:

...

The URL can also include control templates. This can be useful when you wish to specify a production versus a test server. For example: http://{serverURL}/services/processPayment/{customerId}. Using this form URL, you can specify serverURL using &_data=(serverURL:'testhost'). This makes switching from a test server to a production server a matter of setting the form URL parameter "serverURL" rather than editing the form itself. See Initializing Forms with Data for more details on _data usage.

You can use a form field template in the URL field. Ex: http://localhost:8082/{URL!encode=false}. The encode=false template parameter is important to avoid mangling the URL. See Templatized String Parameters for details.

You have the option of also sending the data as a PDF attachment or other image type using the Send Snapshot dropdown. You can also attach an XML data document using the Send XML Data checkbox.

Note

Forwarding users to a web page that is located in a different domain will not work, with or without the use of templatized strings.

Error Action Wizards

These wizards optionally allow you to customize what the user sees if an error occurs. You can either display a message or forward users to a web page of your choice. The wizards behave exactly like the corresponding Form Action wizards above. The Display message can be customized to display the actual error that occurred by adding the special {frevvo_root_cause_msg} template to your message text. This is helpful for debugging, especially if your are using Online.
