Hi, you just need to use some php and add it to the "before form" piece and fill a hidden field's value with the url. Like this: $this->execPieceByName('ff_InitLib'); ff_setValue('page', JURI::current()); // 'page' is the name of the hidden field	TheMuffinMan OFFLINE Moderator Posts: 2950 Karma: 36

Hi

Thanks for the help, it nearly worked, but it didnt catch the whole url

the email and data contain just ..

page: www.domain.com/index.php

I need to catch the whole url, the form is in the desription of a virtuemart store, so I need to catch the product page which the questions on the form were filled and sent from, so that the correct product can be identified for answering the request.

I need to capture the extra to that..

index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_images.tpl&product_id=81&category_id=7&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=68

Thanks

Steven

hmmm, I could swear I read JURI::current() would return the complete url, looks like I was wrong, sorry.
But you can try this instead:

$pageURL = 'http';
 if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {$pageURL .= "s";}
 $pageURL .= "://";
 if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 } else {
  $pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 }


$this->execPieceByName('ff_InitLib');
ff_setValue('page', $pageURL); // 'page' is the name of the hidden field

Hi Thanks

I tried the above and it seemed ok, but I have altered it slightly and used the following, and it all seems to work ok now


 if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
  $pageURL = "https://".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 } else {
  $pageURL = "http://".$_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
 }


$this->execPieceByName('ff_InitLib');
ff_setValue('page', $pageURL); // 'page' is the name of the hidden field

Thanks for the help

Steven

ok, great but just for the logs: people using ssl should use the first code snippet. Regards, Markus	TheMuffinMan OFFLINE Moderator Posts: 2950 Karma: 36
