Single line for each input when email form is sent

Post by wlybfm »

Hi,

We just created our first form. I am just learning WYSIWYG. Is there a way for each line item to show up on a indivdual line instead of a single line truncated together like below?

Thank you.

Name=Joe+Smith&Spouse+Or+Guest+Name=Julie&Street+Address=1122+Mockingbird+lane&email=test%401234.com&Confirm+Email+Address=test%401234.com&City=Bugford&State=MS&Zip+Code=33333&Home+Phone=205-111-1111&Cell+Phone=205-111-1122&Vehicle+Year=1901&Vehicle+Make=Car&Vehicle+Model=Old&YES+Livingston+Alabama=Livingston

I think changing the encoding type in the form properties to text/plain will do what you want.
However, using the mailto: option is not recommended because it relies on the user's email client to send the email and it's open to web crawlers harvesting your email address from the page's html.
It's therefore recommended to use the built-in PHP form processor script which does the email processing on the server.
In this case leave the encoding type to multipart/form-data and the page extension must be PHP.

If you do use this then remove the .html version of the page from the server as this may be used instead of the PHP version depending on how your site is set up.

When you say truncated do you mean that there's no line breaks to the text?. It is known that some email client/applications filter out this in plain text but they will always be included. If you require more control over the formatting then as a alternative you can set the message format at to 'rich text' or HTML.
