Default Number in Web Form
I have a web form and it has a number field. I want a default number to be in the field when the user goes to the form.
I actually really want a number from the previous page.... but one step at a time.
I know I can put a placeholder...but that does not submit.
Which file do I have to edit ? and what do I put.
Here is the actual process I am trying to do.
I have a PHP web page. It comes up with a product and Price ... lets say $123.54
I don't have much access to that website so I am trying to get a form that uses Authorize.net which Web Form Builder does.
From that page... I want to click a button and it will submit the $123.54 as part of the post. And thus that will the total sent to Authorize.net.
I thought maybe .. if I hid the number field in the form and somehow got the $123.54 to be the default number.... By using PHP. Then I could submit to authorize.net.
Is this clear as mud.. to anyone.

In the form html use the value="$123.54" in the input.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

What file is that ?
I can't put that number in there....
I need to pull it from the page before..... which is also PHP....
As each time it will be different.

The customer is on another page.. he choses items and then on this page there is a total .....
I want a button (or form) that basically takes that total and then logs into a webpage using that number.
I can do it by putting the URL in the button...
www.test.com/process.do?number=$123& … ssword=xyz
However .. I can't have customer see login and password... and the $123 has to be a variable from the page.
So I can use the Authoize.net integration on web form builder to hide the login and pW... but I still need a way to bring the number from the PHP /HTML page into the form so it can process... the number can be hidden...and should not be changeable....

Did you read those instructions?
"Place this code inside your form element input code."
