I see, advance embed code do not recognize "$_REQUEST['id']" code indeed. You need to determine what is your form id with custom code. To do so, you can use a session variable, you already have advance embed code like this :</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php require(&quot;C:/path/machform.php&quot;); $mf_param[&#39;form_id&#39;] = 1; $mf_param[&#39;base_path&#39;] = &#39;http://yourdomain.com/machform/&#39;; display_machform($mf_param); ?&gt;</code></pre> <p>then, add a session variable to be like this </p> <pre><code>&lt;?php require(&quot;C:/path/machform.php&quot;); $mf_param[&#39;form_id&#39;] = 1; $_SESSION[&#39;sess_form_id&#39;] = 1; $mf_param[&#39;base_path&#39;] = &#39;http://yourdomain.com/machform/&#39;; display_machform($mf_param); ?&gt;</code></pre> <p>after that, add an "or" condition to your "view-function.php" like this </p> <pre><code>if(($_REQUEST[&#39;id&#39;] == 1 || $_SESSION[&#39;sess_form_id&#39;] == 1 ) &#38;&#38; ($element-&gt;id == 3)){ $element-&gt;default_value = $_SESSION[&#39;your_session_var&#39;]; }</code></pre> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/standard-vs-advance-form-code#post-6972 Wed, 19 Aug 2009 11:16:59 +0000 texags2008 6972@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>in view-functions if i place </p> <p>echo $_REQUEST['id'];</p> <p>it will print the form ID for a form added the standard iframe way but nothing when inserted the advanced php way. is there another variable used when added via php which would distinguish which form it is?</p> <p>as a temp fix, since i only need\have one form up at a time, i removed the logic of determining which form it is and only care about which element it is. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/standard-vs-advance-form-code#post-6964 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 20:37:03 +0000 texags2008 6964@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Here is my previous thread.

I am auto populating a single line text and an email element with the info for the logged in user.</p> <p>Are you saying when building the form for the default value I can just put the variable in there? I am doing it this way because that is how yall told me a year ago! </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/standard-vs-advance-form-code#post-6962 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 19:52:03 +0000 redityo 6962@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi Tia,</p> <p>Why you don't use "default value" options when edit the form rather than create a custom code ? I think it's much easier. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/standard-vs-advance-form-code#post-6958 Tue, 18 Aug 2009 12:01:58 +0000 texags2008 6958@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I am passing session variables (username and email) to automatically set the default values for two elements. </p> <p>Is there any reason this process works when using the standard form code and not via the advanced? And yes I am doing the session_start().</p> <p>tia </p>
