Custom fields Formbuilder

Hi there,

my question is hard to explain but -I hope- easy to understand. Make it clear :

For some reason I'd like to make personal fields with Formbuilder which will be easy to modify (in fact, some dates to strike when unavailable).

Like these :

Code: Select all

<tr>
<td valign="top"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">02 déc.</span>*</span></td>
<td valign="top"><input id="potz" name="potz" type="radio" value="03/12" />03 déc.</td>
<td valign="top"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">04 déc.</span>*</span></td>
<td valign="top"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">05 déc.</span>*</span></td>
<td valign="top"><input id="potz" name="potz" type="radio" value="06/12" />06 déc.</td>
</tr>
So I try to make a static Text field with this great module but it doesn't mail me results (they are part of the form, I checked).
Is there a way to DIY fields whitout using predefine ones ?

Any ideas ?

Have you recreated the email template after you made these?...

Yes I have, but I won't put a {$potz} (I tried) in my template : it doesn't recognize it.

I have several fields. Simple line, pulldown, textarea,... which all have a field ID that I can insert in my email , but not Static text. And I don't find a way to force Formbuilder to send me the radio input made by hand.

Have you tried just letting form builder just do its job and use the diff. field choices it has to do what you want done?...

Ok, I tried your solution. It's a little bit crappy but it works.

I've made the fields that I needed, copy/paste the source generated in my "Static Text" and not forget to add a hidden css class to the first fields created.

Really, really crappy indeed  ;)

But thanks to you Mark, two heads to think is useful.
