We have a developer working on a contact form that will post to the MySQL database used by CMS Builder so we can log in and view/export the submissions via the CMS interface. Do we need to set up the table and the fields through CMS Builder and have him code the form to post to them or can he set up the fields himself in the MySQL table?

Hi,

If you want the files to be viewable inside CMS Builder, you'll need to create the section with it's fields directly in CMS Builder. The software will then take care of creating the table in MySQL.

Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Take a look at the attached files.

addForm adds a form to CMSB.
mailForm sends a form using email.

I usually use the code from both when creating forms. Add the data to CMSB and send it to one or more recipients. I have a field for each CMSB user named 'receive_email', when that field is checked the user receives the form.

This way our clients can control/change who receives the email from the form.

It's not my code, I have downloaded it from this forum in the past, I guess it is coded by Dave or someone else at InteractiveTools.

Glad to hear you found it useful. I use it myself on several of our projects.
