FormBuilder: E-Mail adresses from Checkbox groups?

Post by faglork »

Hi!

I need to set up an e-mail form where the visitor can chose the recipients by activating one or multiple checkboxes.

Unfortunately, FormBuilder does nor offer this out of the box ...

How can this be accomplished? Is it possible at all, using formbuilder?

Any ideas welcome ...

Regards,
Alex

There is a field for this in FB iirc... Might be a dropdown though...

Yes, it is a dropdown, and you can't select multiple adresses.

Thats not what I need. I wonder ... seems such an obvious feature to have checkboxes for email recipients.


Is it possible to extend FormBuilder with custom fields?

Cheers,
Alex

You could try using jQuery. If you set up the checkboxes each with the value of an email address and then also set up the same number of additional fields of type "Email to User-Supplied Email Address" which are hidden using CSS and to which you can then pass the checkbox value when ticked. A bit long winded but could maybe solve you problem.
