Q: During a session, I can create and save variables. They can be saved and loaded. If I start a new session, the old variables have not been saved. I have cookies turned on. Why can't I save the variables?

A: Session variables only remain during a session. If the session ends or the form is submitted then those variables are cleared ready for the next form submission. That is the way session variables work.

Q: Is there a place that talks about how to do a multi-submission and recall the selections made on page one to fill some of the fields for page 2?

A: You can use the basic structure outlined in the Maintaining Form Content section of the Help file https://bizpep.com/form1/ . Basically you set the field name on the second form the to the same as the field name on the preceding form from which you want to source the field value. Then use the Maintaining Form Content code in the second page field to capture and display the previous field value. Hope this make some sense.

Q: Is there a way to have a selection that you make from one field from a drop down menu fill out the field in another part of the form. For example: I have a list of products in a table. There are two fields - Product_name and Unit_Price . When the user selects the option from a drop down with the a product_name can the Unit_Price for that Product be filled into the form automatically? If so, what would be the best way to do it?

A: To do this on a single form it would be best to use javascript (you would need to develop a small script specifically for this function). An alternative could be using a multi form process where the value is passed from one field to the next on form submission. This would use php (and not depend on the user having javascript enabled) but would increase the complexity of the form and require a multi stage submission process.

Q: In the email that is sent as a result of the form being filled out I want to use a different value for the field name that will include spaces. For example I have a follow up field right now using this code: name="FollowUp" . In the e-mails this results currently in: FollowUp: Yes . I would like to be able to show it in the e-mails as: Follow Up: Yes

A: In the field names you can use underscores ie _ instead of spaces. When the name is displayed in the emails etc the _ is replaced with a space. So use name="Follow_Up" and this will display as Follow Up: Yes.
