How to modify Contact Form I to save at every step?

  • Dear community

    I’m working on saving data to the DB on every “Next” click event, when the “Next” button is pressed.

    This request is because, many clients drop their quiz form (session) and using cookies it too risky as many of them don’t use the same browser when getting back to the quiz.

    I am good in JS and I would like to use the existing onStepChanging function when the Next event is fired.

    Can you please help me?

    This is a front-end form question. For the record, CFDB doesn’t do anything with the form on the page (only when it is submitted).

    I’ll leave it to others to help you out.

    hi Michael,

    i haven’t received any help yet, could you please let me know where to go from here?

    my form is a very long sequence of multiple choice questions.

    i would like to have a save progress button!

    that’s why i thought i could achieve this by submitting on every click of the Next button via PHP and JS.

    thanks

    I think you would require a custom solution to this, especially if users can exit then come back and you want the data from the DB to repopulate the answers in the form.

    Thanks Michael, I appreciate your help.

    Where can I ask for a quote?

    Thanks

    you are right, the scope is that users can exit (via a “save & exit” button) then come back (login) and the data from the DB will repopulate the answers in the form.

    No cookies involved.

    Please let me know where can i start from to address this scope.

    Thanks
