***UPDATED*** DB Technosystems Form Processor 02/09/2011

Post by Navaldesign »

A new Form Processor Extension is available for WB.
Also, two addon extensions, DBTS Preview and DBTS reCAPTCHA are now available.

Sample emails:

Please test in http://www.dbtechnosystems.com/wb6/forms/
You can download the zip from http://www.dbtechnosystems.com/wb6/form ... cessor.php

Included in the zip you can find a Manual in PDF with instructions.

Main Features:

1. It has a built in Autoresponder part, to mail your visitor a copy of his submitted info. You can also attach a file to forward with the autoresponder mail, to your visitor.

2. Will create table based HTML email, so it is ideal for forms that need to send Orders, bookings, and other table like formated info. However you can select among HTML or Text Only emails.

3. You have full control over the visual details: text color, background colors, cell colors etc, cellspacing and padding, and Page background color. You can add your own Logo on top (see sample picture) and set the Logo alignment and background color.

4. You can set the mail subject, the mail start, the mail end, separately for main email and autoresponder email. You can also select if you want a copy of the submitted info to be included in the autoresponder email.

5. You can use many form processors in the same page, with different settings for each. It is enough to include a hidden field in each form with an whatever string that will be used as the form ID

6. You can set file size and folder, and add a security prefix to files. You can also set the allowable file types, in order to avoid dangerous file uploads. Filetype validation is case insensitive.

7. You can select whether to send the uploaded files as attachments to your email. You are also able to set the max total attachment size in order to avoid the mail being blocked by your ISP.

8. You can store the uploaded data in a CSV file (two types of CSV, plain CSV, MS Excel CSV). The script will also automatically add columns in the CSV file if further fields are added in the future. It also automatically adds date, timestamp and IP address.

9. You can store automatically the data in a database table. Create a database and user (username / password) and the script will take care of the rest.

10. You can now create Multipage forms just as you would create normal forms. Process the form with our form processor, set the necessary "Copy in Session" and / or "Copy From Session" controls and you are done! (see Manual).

11. You can set your correct Timezone, so the script will correctly capture the submission time (by default the server time is used)

12. You can now add your own Includes to the script. This way you can perform whatever action you might think of: conditional submittions, calculations, checks, validations, preview pages, data merge, whatever you might think of, using PHP.

11. Uses the same error reporting system as the WB built in form processor.

12. Will recreate the form page on the server to modify the captcha verification code. So now you can use the WB6 built in captcha and have the potential error reported in your own error page instead of the (ugly) white page with only a "Back" Link. Of course, you can set the error message as you like it.

13. Use the DBTS Preview Extension to automatically create a table with all the info submitted, in your Preview Page or Confirmation Page.

14. Uee the DBTS reCAPTCHA extension to easily embed a reCAPTCHA in your forms.

Please use your own email address to the demo form so that you will receive the autoresponder email. This way you will be able to see how the mail looks like before you install and use the extension.

Feedback is appreciated. The only way for a developer to improve his script is user feedback! If you have any remarks, observations, suggestions that you believe that would be of general interest, please post it in this forum.

Great extension ! Thank you very much ! I would like to use it, but how can it be translated (ie in french) ? Some sentences can by translated in the extension properties but not all of them...
Maybe in a future version ?

Hm... Not sure what you mean.

If you mean the Properties dialog box inside WB6, i don't see such a great need for translation, meaning that it is only a few words / sentences.
And, anyway, your input (text) can be in french.

If instead you mean the script output, that is the emails that are created, you can use any language, as the script will retrieve the field names as you have provided them in your form, so if you have given them french names, they will appear in french.

Sorry about that, i didn't understood the purpose of the extension. I thought that the extension provides the whole form (with all the fields).

I you have some free time, could you please provide us (for the newbies like me ;-)) a wbs file with the form sample as we can see it in your website ?

Thank's a lot by advance.
Fred.

Fred; You create your form anyway you like, It does not matter how many fields you add. That is the beauty of this extension. There is no limit.

Wow! This is brilliant as we've come to expect from Navaldesign. Just what I'm looking for. Looking forward to the 'save to file' option. I may even have a go at including it myself (although this probably means it will never work again)

Thanks again

Save to file will be available probably tomorrow. Save in Database is a bit more tricky but i also expect that to be ready in the week.

The extension has been updated, it now supports file storage in two different types of CSV file: with "," delimiter and ";" delimiter.
The second one has the advantage that will open in MS Excel with fields in separate columns (instead of the classic CSV that open the entire row of info in a single line).

sourabh_sachan : Not sure what you mean, why doesn't it support captcha ???

Naval,
Thanks a load for this splendid extension.
I was wondering, the uploaded files go to the server I suppose (I haven't used upload in my form yet) How about having an option where the admin can decide while making the form whether he wants-
1) The uploaded files as attachment only with the email he gets
OR
2) To save in a folder on the server
Option 1 will help avoid schedule cleaning of the upload folder on the server and dumping of unwanted uploads by spammers.

I will add this, though i am very sceptical about attachment. If an attachment is bigger than 8 - 10 MB can cause the mail to be blocked by ISPs and you will never know you have ever received it.....

sourabh_sachan: My manual doesn't say that it doesn't support captcha, it says that the field name "captcha_code" is reserved.. And this is EXACTLY because it supports WB6's built in captcha..

Please note that the WB6 captcha doesn't interfere with the script at all, it performs a first level authentication (to see if the captcha has been filled in correctly) and then it simply leaves space to my processor. In other words, the WB6 built in captcha works independently! If it doesn't work for you, you probably have done something wrong (a link to your form, WITH captcha, would help debug your issue)

Please look at this demo which has WB6 captcha embedded in the form:

True, but how about limiting the file size max to 10 mb that is the max limit with most email providers like gmail, yahoo etc.

Further Update:

Added Ability to send uploaded files as attchments.
Added ability to limit the total attachments size so the mail will not be blocked by ISPs.

Uploaded files storage on server is now optional.

Added Includes! You can now add your own code in 6 different points of the script. This way you can add custom validation, or further mailing, or submitting to yet another script using CURL, or creating and including a Preview Page, or checking specific fields, or creating custom emails, or.... anything you can think of!

The PHP code will also be soon available for anyone that desires to analyze the script for creating his own custom code.

Database storage is scheduled for some time next week.

As usual this is genius and extremely useful.

I've added the line

Code: Select all

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');
as you can see below to give me the correct local time.

Code: Select all

<?php
// This script was created by DBTECHNOSYSTEMS.com ----
// © DBTechnosystems.com http://www.dbtechnosystems.com
// You may use this script but please leave author details here

// *****I've added the line below to correct the server time to my local time*****
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');

if($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST')

{
error_reporting(55);
Just one question.

I've added some code to create a unique ID (Below)

Code: Select all

//set the random id length 
$random_id_length = 8; 

//generates a random id encrypt it and store it in $rnd_id 
$rnd_id = crypt(uniqid(rand(),1)); 

//removes any slashes that might have been generated
$rnd_id = strip_tags(stripslashes($rnd_id)); 

//Removing any . or / and reversing the string 
$rnd_id = str_replace(".","",$rnd_id); 
$rnd_id = strrev(str_replace("/","",$rnd_id)); 

//finally take the first 8 characters from the $rnd_id 
$rnd_id = substr($rnd_id,0,$random_id_length); 
// I've added this later in the echo and e-mail
//echo "When contacting us please quote: $rnd_id"; 
//Converts the reference to uppercase
$rnd_id = strtoupper($rnd_id);
and I'm able to echo this into the headers, mail ends etc by adding $rnd_id to the text but it does not save in the CSV file (presumably because it isn't a form field).

Is there a way to include it or do I need something like a prefixed autonumber field as a edit box on the form itself.

Thanks for sharing your brilliant work.

Why do you add all this in the code ?

As you might have seen, the script supports includes.

So you can simply create an external php file:

Code: Select all

<?
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');

//set the random id length 
$random_id_length = 8; 

//generates a random id encrypt it and store it in $rnd_id 
$rnd_id = crypt(uniqid(rand(),1)); 

//removes any slashes that might have been generated 
$rnd_id = strip_tags(stripslashes($rnd_id)); 

//Removing any . or / and reversing the string 
$rnd_id = str_replace(".","",$rnd_id); 
$rnd_id = strrev(str_replace("/","",$rnd_id)); 

//finally take the first 8 characters from the $rnd_id 
$rnd_id = substr($rnd_id,0,$random_id_length); 
// I've added this later in the echo and e-mail 
//echo "When contacting us please quote: $rnd_id"; 
//Converts the reference to uppercase 
$rnd_id = strtoupper($rnd_id);

$_POST['Submission ID'] = $rnd_id; // This line adds in the POST superglobal the unique ID you created
$autoresponderend .= "\nWhen contacting us please quote: $rnd_id"; // This line adds to the autoresponder footer the message with the quote ID
?>
and load it on the server as (just an example name) "start.php"

then add it's url (simply "start.php" , if it is in the same folder as the form page) in the "After Form Data Reception Include URL"

I have not tested it but it SHOULD work!

Naveldesign, I am so sorry. But the auto responder feature is not working on this version. My setting with Autoresponder and Customer Email field is correct. Course I could be doing something wrong!

http://www.star57.com/contactus.php

I followed the new manual and tested with differant 3 emails, I get the Administrative email, but not the customer email.

Thanks Naveldesign (George)

Logo Feature is the best , Your da man...

Wonder if I did something wrong!
My forms were working perfect with the first version of this extension. Now when I upgraded to the latest with logo, when the form is submitted, the admin is getting a mail but no details only an attachment called 'noname' and when I download that it turns out to be a zip file and inside it is a file (with no extension) called "noname' it is about 7kb in size and the recepient isnt getting any mail.

By the way, I dont need data in CSV/CSV for Excell on the server, how to turn that off??

These are my settings, please diagnose whats wrong where...my otherwise working form is stuck! :cry:

Image

This is the form link : http://au.lucknowwebs.net/getaquote.html
There are three forms there...I have tried the 2nd (I would like to interact with visitors) and 3rd one (I would like to transact business, I want advanced features like ecommerce capability?)

Since i can't see your settings, I can't know what you might have been doing wrong. Just to be on the safe side, i installed the extension directly from the uploaded zip and i tested it again and it works just fine.

Make sure that you have set the Autoresponder to "Yes"

prosenjeet: this might be an issue with the form, not the processor. Your forms action is null ?? action = ""

Edit and test. Since this is a form in frame, you might need to set the form action manually, to be the form page itself.

My form action is set to <? Echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’];?>
Encoding is - Multipart/form-data
My form target = "_parent" this is put in "inside tag" as suggested by you sometime back for opening inline forms success page on parent page.

Funny part is, this same form was working with the first release of your extension perfectly and I didnt change any settings in the form but updated your extension.
Any help will be appreciated

Edit and test. Since this is a form in frame, you might need to set the form action manually, to be the form page itself.
My form action is set to <? Echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’];?>
Encoding is - Multipart/form-data
My form target = "_parent" this is put in "inside tag" as suggested by you sometime back for opening inline forms success page on parent page.

Funny part is, this same form was working with the first release of your extension perfectly and I didnt change any settings in the form but updated your extension.
Any help will be appreciated
The action results null for some reason. Manually set each form action to be the page itself. In example, if the form page is "form.php" set the action to be "form.php"

As suggested by you, I chaged the form action from <? Echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’];?> to the form page name.
See the form settings I have and uploaded in the same way but still the submit email is same as I mentioned earlier.

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with your settings. It is also true that the extension sends out email normally, i tested it so many times, and other users here might also confirm this.

Please make sure that the email field is named "email" . If you can, send me your page (form page) code.

Thanks Naval,
I tried that and the result I have mailed to you.
Issue is with the email that the admin is getting ...it is all HTML code. However, the form submitter email is working, showing all the details and the logo. However, the link on the logo is not the link that I set ...when the logo is clicked, it is opening the logo in a new window and not going to the site/url that I set it to go.
Try the form here : http://au.lucknowwebs.net/getaquote.html

Fixed : file extensions not always correctly recognized

Please re-download and re-install the extension.

Navel, All I get in Inbox.com and Yahoo is the code for the submission! Plain Text. The email before it is in HTML and the one behind is Html.

Update:

A further version is uploaded.

It SHOULD resolve all issues with Inbox, yahoo and ALL other webmail providers as well as desktop email clients.

The mailing engine has been replaced and now the famous phpmailer class is used to guarantee correct emailing.

Using PHPMAiler has also allowed to embed the Logo image in the mail, so your users will not need to unblock the logo image anymore. As a result of using PHPMailer, the Logo image path has become RELATIVE instead of absolute (if the logo.jpg image is in the same folder, the path should be simply "logo.jpg")

Please note that now the script will create a subfolder named "dbts_includes" with the PHPMailer Class files.

This is normal, do NOT worry!

PHPMailer also allows SMTP authentication whenever necessary, which we will add as soon as possible.

Please download and replace the extension with the new one.

As mentioned in my abobe post, you must ONLY place the RELATIVE path to the image (please also look at UPDATED instructions in the Manual)

So in the Image field you should ONLY type : images/Logo.png

Date, IP address and Bowser are hardcoded. Though it is possible to take them out, it must be implemented (as Administrator options) in the next update.

The next update will include the following features:

1. Database storing: you will be able to store the info in a database. The script also will offer automatic table and columns creation as well as automatic addition of new columns (if new fields are added in the form in a second time)

2. Sendmail (or Qmail) or SMTP mailing engine. These are standard features of the PHPMailer class (used by the script as mailing engine) but have not yet been implemented in the processor. Implementing them will solve issues with hosting companies that don't support the mail() function.

3. Option for HTML or Text Only mails. Text only emails garantee maximum deliverability and require less resources. However, the HTML email, as designed, will give practically zero issues, as the Logo image is embedded in the email and not an externally linked image.


Estimated release date: Fri July 24 2009.

Naval,
The Auto responder mail that the form submitter gets with all the entries, is there a way we add a line with a link in it for these visitors in that email?
