    I had an idea to close the eform thanks page automatically after about 15 secs... I use eform all in iframe (slimbox_ex) is this possible?

    Thanks!

      You could try something like

      in the form-definition:
      <form ....... onSubmit="<some.kind.of.first.action>; setTimeout(’window.open(\’file.to.display.after.the.timeout\’,\’_self\’)’,timeout_in_millisecs)">

      or in the page that gets loaded in the iframe to display the reply:
      <body ....... onLoad="setTimeout(’window.open(\’file.to.display.after.the.timeout\’,\’_self\’)’,timeout_in_millisecs)">


      have fun!

      regards, JW
