registration, keep filled fields when wrong captcha

[Anonymous]

Hi

when someone is restering an event, if he misses the captcha or fills it wrong,

is it possible to still keep the filled fields (name, phone, etc.) so that he doesn’t have to fill them again?

thanks

that’s a browser thing I believe: hitting “back” sometimes bring back the previous values for a form, sometimes it doesn’t.

thanks for your answer.

it does bring back the previous in a lot of others sites, so I am guessing my browser allows it…so it seems to be a problem of events manager extended, isn’t it?

ps: I use firefox 4.0.

Try changing in eme_rsvp.php:

$msg = response_check_captcha(“captcha_check”,1);

to

$msg = response_check_captcha(“captcha_check”,0);

and see if that solves it

thanks franky

but it doesn’t solve the problem, the page redisplays with the error message but the field are empty

[Franky]

Well, sorry, but I’m guessing that the php session causes this (the captcha works with a php session).

ok no worries

people will retype their name!

thanks anyway

Franky, if they hit enter and you process the form to find the captcha is wrong, then you have to pass the values from $_POST to the form.

So in eme_rsvp.php, line 146, $bookerName would have to get set with the value of the POST

So on line 19, you can add:

if (isset($_POST)) { $bookerName = eme_sanitize_request($_POST); }

and that will keep the name.

Then just do the same for email, phone and comments.

Oh, and then you’ll have to unset the POST variables, so after booking the form is cleared.

Around line 316: unset($_POST);

ok, done in trunk
