Prefill based on URL
Good afternoon everyone,
Is there a way to get a field to prefill based on the URL for forms exported for manual setup? I put my JS file in the header of the contact.html that was generated, but it doesn't appear to be working as I had intended. Just wanted to know if this was even possible before I spent a whole day trying to make it work.
Thanks,
Krysten

If you don't want it hidden leave that part off.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Great, thanks. I'll check it out.
EDIT: This script doesn't seem to do what I need it to. The script there provides a way to capture the entire URL, but I just want it to fill in based on part of the URL. Basically I need to be able to capture an item's ID from a previous page and have it fill in automatically based upon which button was clicked. I don't want the entire URL so that my client can easily distinguish about which item a customer is inquiring without requiring their customer to copy down the item ID and filling it in manually. I'll try adding the script I already have as an HTML element and see what happens.
Ok then you can use a URL variable.

Got it working with the following:
It isn't allowing me to also do radio buttons, but that's really minor comparatively and not necessary for go-live. Thanks for your help.
$(function () {
var prefill = document.location.search.replace('?', '');
prefill = prefill.split('&');
for (var i = 0; i < prefill.length; i++) {
var field = prefill[i].split("=");
$("input[name='" + field[0] + "'], select[name='" + field[0] + "']").val(field[1]);
}
});
var prefill = document.location.search.replace('?', '');
prefill = prefill.split('&');
for (var i = 0; i < prefill.length; i++) {
var field = prefill[i].split("=");
$("input[name='" + field[0] + "'], select[name='" + field[0] + "']").val(field[1]);
}
});

What do you want to do to radio buttons?
