Adjust form feedback report? - Post...
Still trying WFB, and it is looking like what I need. Now that I have the test form up and working my issue is with the confirmation message I get back that "Someone has filled out a form" (this is coming from the coffecup email address to me.
The data is not formatted in a very elegant way. For example a field titled "Your Name - (Who is this gift certificate from):" comes back as:
Your Name (name entered is placed here)
- (Who is
this gift
certificate
from):
Is there a way to widen the column, or stop the word wrap as some of my input labels are quite long, making the report very long, for very little actual data?
Many thanks,
Kenneth

The reason that the email is coming from a CoffeeCup address is due to the configuration you have in the software. To fix this, go to the Settings > Email Notices and in the FROM box, you need to place the email address element name. It should be somethng like [email]. This will make the email message come from the address entered into the form.
If you make the email address optional and someone does not enter one, then it will default from our address as it has to be sent from something.
To customize the message, go to the Settings > Email Notices > Configure Email Message and remove the [form_results] block. Now manually insert each element from the bottom of the dialog and format them with the appropriate HTML you would like to use.
Clear as mud? :-)

In theory I understand what you're saying, but "format them with the appropriate HTML..." is way over my head. I do have full versions of VSB and CC HTML Editor, but I'm afraid the HTML part is beyond my limited capabilities. Any chance you could give me an example of how one of the fields (for example the text3 field which "Your Name" could be coded?
Sorry for being so thick.

You do not have to get real fancy here. Just something simple like this:
Customer Name: [name_field]<br>
Email Address: [email]<br>
Their Comments: [comments_field]<br>
Their Website: [url]<br>
You can even format the information a little more:
<b>Customer Name:</b> [name_field]<br>
<b>Email Address:</b> [email]<br>
<b>Their Comments:</b> [comments_field]<br>
<b>Their Website:</b> [url]<br>
