Form contents being cut off
Started 11 years ago by compusol | 3 posts |

Form entries are being cut off when saved.
The entry field size is left at zero should be unlimited but some entries are being cut off at random points.
This happens on more than one field, sometimes many hundreds of characters, sometimes just tens of characters, no real pattern to this error.
The person submitting the form sees all the content that they have entered but when the emails arrive the content is truncated.
Any ideas?

MachForm uses UTF-8 encoding to process the form data. If you are embedding your form using php code, you need to change the encoding of the page where you embed the form to UTF-8
Change this line:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
to become:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

Looks like a simple solution, is this in the documentation for MachForm as I didn't see this.
Possibly worth adding to the manual as I am sure that I am not the only one seeing this issue.
Thanks
