Need help combining inputs into one output for XML (code included)


Question

I am at the end of my rope here. I've tried everything I know how to do.

 

I have a webform that sends the information to Quickbase (a CRM). Everything works because the name"" in the input fields matches the data fields in the CRM. Except for four things:

• New Address Referring Agent Referring Company Agent Email

• All four of those SHOULD output into "_fid_12" which is Referral Notes field 12.

• So the variables aa through dd have been made, but still nothing transmits.

 

Please tell me what I'm missing. It's put me 5 days behind so far. Code is below (without the server sensitive data).

 

 <div id="desktop-contact-form">
    <div>   
        <form name="qdbform" method="POST" onsubmit="return validateForm(this)" encType="multipart/form-data" action="https://CRM-DOMAIN-APP-ROKEN-URL">
            <input type="hidden" name="fform" value="1">

                    <td><input type="text" placeholder="Please enter you first name..." size="40" name="_fid_6" ></td>                      
                </tr>
                <tr>

That's what I have, and it almost looks like "theForm._fid_12.value = rnote" should be different, but I don't know what else to do.

 

There are no other files on the server designating the process of things. All the code is written here. Please help. I'm desperate for this to start working.

After getting suggestions and different lines of code from other people, it almost feels like something is wrong on my end in Dreamweaver.

 

There are no other files in process here. Everything is inline. Could it be something in DW? I'm stumped.

I ran your code in a Chrome browser and it works.

 

I had to delete the CheckForOther function so maybe that's a clue

 

Otherwise it's a server issue

 

Also, it's been long time since I played with webby stuff but Multpart encoding doesn't seem right for a simple form...

Hmm, okay. I'll make the adjustment. I don't know what is causing such a hiccup. I'm going to have to create random fields in the CRM so I eliminate this multipart data and just make each field correspond with only one field in the CRM. Thank you for your input.

Multipart is normally used for file transfer uploads. Simple form whatver is in it is just a single transmission.
