I have a hidden field, which does come in as hidden and I put into the value box in the form builder <?php echo $ChildRegID;?>

What it sends to the html is
value="&lt;?php echo $ChildRegID;?&gt

How do I get rid of the &It and the &gt and replace with <? and ?>

Also, I double checked and if you choose the readonly check box in form builder it interprets that as disabled. Should it do that? Is that (gasp) a bug?

You need to enable parsing of php in a html page or change your form name to .php.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I can run php in the html file already. It is only when I add the php directives within the form builder that I have problems. When I choose the manual server option for export, it creates the appropriate files and the html page and in doing so it replaces the php directives with the funny codes. I can go into the html and replace the incorrect coding and everything works fine. I would like to do the least amount of after creation work with respect to the form builder so I would prefer not to have to go into the form and fix it.

So, is there a way to add the php in the values field of the hidden field in form builder without having form builder replace the < and > brackets?

If not, I will continue to go into the form and add the information my hand.

Remove the js script wrapping the form embed iframe code.
