Can somebody show me a complete example of a custom form and template? Does not have to be very complex. I had it working and messed something up. Trying to get a site finished and I am low on sleep

Thanks for the welcome and the quick reply.

I used that the the link you provided the first time I had the form working. I deleted the wrong file and now I get get it setup again.

Here is what I think I need to do but it is not working. Create a php file in the mysite directory for the MyForm class and then create the template in the Include directory. I will also need to create a formholder.php so I can create the page in the admin area.

I am missing something but can't figure out what.

I was getting a blank page. Since the last post I added <% include MyForm %> and now I get the labels from the MyForm.ss but not the textboxes. I am not sure if adding this was correct but I am trying everything.

Here is what I have

/mysite/code/quoteform.php

<?php

class MyForm extends Form {

function __construct($controller, $name) {
$fields = new FieldSet(
new TextField('FirstName', 'First name'),
new EmailField('Email', 'Email address')
);

$actions = new FieldSet(
new FormAction('submit', 'Submit')
);

parent::__construct($controller, $name, $fields, $actions);
}

function forTemplate() {
return $this->renderWith(array(
$this->class,
'Form'
));
}

function submit($data, $form) {
// do stuff here
}

}

/mysite/code/quotepage.php

<?php
class QuotePage extends Page {

static $db = array(
);

static $has_many = array(

);
}

class QuotePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {

}

/themes/templates/mytemplate/quotepage.ss

//code above is left out to condense//
            
         $Content

<% include MyForm %>

//code below is left out to condense//

/themes/templates/mytemplate/Includes/MyForm.ss

<form $FormAttributes>
<% if Message %>
<p id="{$FormName}_error" class="message $MessageType">$Message</p>
<% else %>
<p id="{$FormName}_error" class="message $MessageType" style="display: none"></p>
<% end_if %>

<fieldset>
<div id="FirstName" class="field text">
<label class="left" for="$FormName_FirstName">First name</label>
$dataFieldByName(FirstName)
</div>

<div id="Email" class="field email">
<label class="left" for="$FormName_Email">Email</label>
$dataFieldByName(Email)
</div>

$dataFieldByName(SecurityID)
</fieldset>

<% if Actions %>
<div class="Actions">
<% control Actions %>$Field<% end_control %>
</div>
<% end_if %>
</form>

Worked great.

Thanks for the fast response.
