Hi,
I need to be able to parse and send via email the fields in a form being filled out on Revo 2.2. The catch - I think - is that it is a form generated by some PHP and there is a varying number of one field (e.g. contestant_name1, contestant_name2, etc.)
Not having worked with FormIt very much, I was wondering if there was a straightforward way to have all the fields in the form dumped to an email message? Or is there some other way entirely I should think about approaching this?
Thanks in advance for any thoughts. I did look through the forums and nothing caught my eye as a solution.
Regards,
Matt

So you'd like the emailer template to be dynamic to account for these expanding fields if I understand correct.
There may be advanced solutions beyond mine but the easiest way I can think is to build the template with up to X spots for the info to show up and if it doesn't they would just be empty.
Are there going to need to be that many expanding slots? How many is max?
You can't do JS in the email template so would have to be some kind of snippet that takes the place of the email templates formit uses, or one that can make a template selection process based on how many expanding fields.
Again if it were me I'd just build a nice table email template and leave empty blocks for expansion. Not glamorous but if you only have a small number of expanding fields and there won't be dozens of entered names etc would work fine.
