Hi all
I have a form builder set up for people to register there interest. I need to add options to allow them to selct or enter a day of the week and a time slot and date.
I need a calnader booking module, have search but found nothing.
Also at present i get the info in the form email to me, i am thinking maybe i should be using the database option.
Here is the form i am using www.ssh.noosaimages.com.au
I am learning this stuff as i go, so would appreciate some help or advice.
Thanks

Re: I need help with my form builder options
I had a look for this too but could not find a calendar add on. You could get a coder to do something in javascript to add this functionality to your form.
Re the database option you can do this as well as the email option - I would do both. There is a 'disposition' form field which you simply need to add as new field to your form. It is in the drop down list of the form field types you see when you go into your form to edit it. If you are using the database option you then need to install the module form browser which will then appear under the content area of the admin's navigation. Go to it and click the Add new form browser button - this bit is self explanatory.
Hope this helps, JK

Re: I need help with my form builder options
Thanks JK i had a go.
Ok I have sorta got it working. I can get the results that are emailed to me in the form to be written to a database tab delimited file. I have select a Store Results in Database.
I have the {cms_module module='FormBrowser' browser='database'} option in the send to template, but this displays a smart error. string(78) "Smarty error: unable to read resource: "module_db_tpl:FormBrowser;fbr_list_-1""
I need to work out how i am going to use this database field, I am new to database so not sure what i can and cannot do!
mmm this stuff gets confusing.
I did find an option for a calander, when you add a field it is under date picker, if your intrested, check my site to see it.

Re: I need help with my form builder options
I believe there's an "output" directory under the Formbuilder module directory, where the files are stored.

Thanks for the reply.
there is nothing in the output dorectory except a index.html file.
I did find this file action.admin_export_xls, but could not work out where it pulls the file from?
Cheers
