In CGBetterForms I would like the user to enter their email address twice and only submit the form if the two email addresses are identical.

Is this possible?

In your form template create the two email forms. and make them look pretty using CSS etc.

In CGBF, scan the form, then add a 'Validate via Smarty template' handler
in that template.

That template would look something like:

{if $email1 != $email2}Please ensure the email address in both fields match{/if}

Perfect, many thanks!

If I may be cheeky, can I repeat an earlier post and ask if there's any way to add a checkbox to the form which allows the person submitting the form to choose whether to get emailed a copy?

1. Add a hidden field to your form , call it something like 'sendtoaddr'

2. Add a 'compute a field value' validation, set the computed field to 'sendtoaddr'
and set the template to something like:
{if $sendmeacopy}{$myemail}{/if}

3. Use the 'Send to User supplied email address' (or whatever it is called) disposition, and specify the 'sendtoaddr' field.

This will be slightly easier in the next version (v1.9) when I release it.

Great, thanks for your help and work on CGBetterForms, it's maturing nicely.
