Q: After the form has been submitted, I get an email with the subject "Error MYSQL Form Submission." I'm sure that I correctly filled in all of the fields required to use the MYSQL feature of Form Builder, and I also made sure that the Field Names were exactly the same as the table fields in my database. I'm not sure what's going on?

A: This "Error" email is generated when the form data is unable to update your MYSQL database. Form data is delivered as as text variables. Make sure the the MYSQL fields are of the type text. Also if you have any auto incremented fields in your MYSQL database set them to be skipped using $mysqlfieldskip. You can also try setting up a test form with one basic input text field (remove the checkbox), give it a test and then build up from there. To assist further I will need access to your server to view your file and access your MYSQL database.

Q: Hello, I am building a dating site. I have a web form I am replacing and I am considering your form. I have two parts of my present form: the first page that uploads text; the second page that has a browse feature that uploads images. I am not sure how it works now, for it feeds into a content manager that someone else has programmed. I need the images to be inserted into the profile data in the same record. I need the images to be validated that they are .jpeg files and that they are of a certain resolution (maybe 400 by 400 pixels). I need an approval/append system where we can simultaneously add the daily profiles at one time 15 simultaneous additions. A holding database would be nice to for profiles we are awaiting information. Can your system do this?

A: Using Form1 Builder MYSQL you can automatically have the text (first page) added to a MYSQL database and then use the File attachment feature to send a picture file. The file will only be sent as an email attachment. You can define file types and file size (not picture resolution). Picture size can be easily adjusted we you display. Form1 Builder MYSQL will handle most of the data retrieve but to fully automate all your requirements you really need a purpose built script.

Q: I have checked with my ISP and they do not have a limit on file upload size.... what next???

A: The issue will be with your isp or a browser time out. Either the upload_max_filesize set in your isp php configuration or a time out limit set for processing ie php stops running before the file is fully uploaded. The Form1 processing will run as long as it is allowed to by the server.

Q: I am having a problem sending a large (31mb) zip file to a test address. When I go to the web form, fill it out, then attach the 30 mbzip file, it takes about 6 minutes, then says it was sent. However, when I go to the address it was sent to, I get no attachment and only the form information. Is there some limit as to the size of file you can send? I have configured the form to handle files no bigger than 50 mb.

A: There are 2 limits the limit set in the script, which you have correctly set as 50mb for you case and the limit set by your server.This is the upload_max_filesize when you view your server settings. Use the View Server php Configuration function to see the upload_max_filesize. See the Maximum Size of File Attachment section in the Help file for more detail. The upload_max_filesize is usually set by your server host at a couple of MB.

Q: I am trying to create a customer file upload form with name, address, email address, and a browse button, to let them upload files. Can this be done?

A: Yes, see the Help file File Attachment section. Use the input field type "file" in your form (for the browse field/button) and set the variables as required. If you are not sure on the form field coding you can use the Designer Form function to display the form field code.
