Hey -

Is it possible to use PHx in an eForm? I’ve got some fields that only need to be sent to the email recipient if a checkbox is marked, and I was hoping to use something like:

[+currentlySubscribed:isnot=``:then=`
<p><strong>Address:</strong></p>
<p>
[+address1+]<br />
[+address2+]<br />
[+city+], [+state+] [+zip+]
</p>
`+]

to accomplish it. If that won’t work, can someone point me in the right direction for something that will work?

No. I don’t think eForm plays nice with PHx (if I remember correctly). To do what you describe you would need to use php in a function tied to an eForm event

Bummer. Any pointers on how to do that? (good forum threads, documentation, etc.? I didn’t see much for examples in the docs I could find...)

Take a close look at eForm events example: assets/snippets/eform/docs/eform_example_events.htm (eForm docs are bundled with the snippet)

Found it -- thanks. Any idea if PHx and eForm will ever play well together? Seems like it could be used pretty powerfully, though I know it probably wouldn’t be a very easy job.
