Fatal Error When Submitting Perch Forms

Hi

Never seen this one before when submitting a Perch Form...

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function label() on null in /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/addons/apps/perch_forms/runtime.php:25 Stack trace: #0 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/core/lib/Perch.class.php(127): perch_forms_form_handler(Object(PerchAPI_SubmittedForm)) #1 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/core/inc/forms.php(9): Perch->dispatch_form('ProseccoQuote:p...', Array, Array) #2 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/core/inc/forms.php(26): perch_find_posted_forms() #3 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/core/runtime/runtime.php(16): include('/home/kfour/KB6...') #4 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/runtime.php(2): include('/home/kfour/KB6...') #5 /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/bubbletastic/request_quote.php(2): include('/home/kfour/KB6...') #6 {main} thrown in /home/kfour/KB64SXSY/htdocs/cms/addons/apps/perch_forms/runtime.php on line 25

. Template looks like this (form needs to be client generated)...

<perch:form id="<perch:content id="formID" type="text" label="Form ID" help="Give the form an ID so submissions can be identified" divider-before="Form Fields" notes-before="NB: Submit a test form first & then go into the Form app to configure the form's settings" />" method="post" app="perch_forms">

        <perch:repeater id="formFields" label="Form Fields">
            <div class="form-group">
                <perch:label for="field<perch:content id="perch_item_index" type="hidden" />"><perch:content id="label" type="text" label="Field Label" /></perch:label>
                <perch:input type="<perch:content id="type" type="select" label="Field type" options="Text|text,Email Address|email,Phone number|tel,Textaera|textarea" />" id="field<perch:content id="perch_item_index" type="hidden" />" label="<perch:content id="label" />" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="<perch:content id="placeholder" type="text" label="Placeholder" />" />
            </div>
        </perch:repeater>

        <div class="button">
            <perch:input type="submit" value="<perch:content id="btnTxt" type="text" label="Button text" />" class="btn btn--green" />
        </div>
    </perch:form>

. Which outputs...

<form id="form1_ProseccoQuote" action="/bubbletastic/request_quote.php" method="post">


            <div class="form-group">
                <label for="form1_field1">Full name</label>
                <input id="form1_field1" name="field1" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Full name" type="text" />
            </div>

            <div class="form-group">
                <label for="form1_field2">Home phone number</label>
                <input id="form1_field2" name="field2" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Home phone number" type="tel" />
            </div>

            <div class="form-group">
                <label for="form1_field3">Mobile number</label>
                <input id="form1_field3" name="field3" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Mobile number" type="tel" />
            </div>

            <div class="form-group">
                <label for="form1_field4">Email</label>
                <input id="form1_field4" name="field4" class="form-control input-lg" placeholder="Email" type="email" />
            </div>


        <div class="button">
            <input class="btn btn--green" value="Request Quote" type="submit" /><input type="hidden" name="cms-form" value="UHJvc2VjY29RdW90ZTpwZXJjaF9mb3JtczovdGVtcGxhdGVzL2NvbnRlbnQvb3JkZXJfcGFnZXMvZm9ybS5odG1sOjE0OTA3MzYxOTM=" />

It might be this:

label="<perch:content id="label" />"

in your perch:input with a label Field Type

You've already got a label - try it without this and see if it fixes it.

Thanks Duncan - sadly no luck.

label="<perch:content id="label" />" is in there to give it it's Perch label on the form submission data. By putting in <perch:content id="label" /> it repeats the content from the label field earlier in the template.

Ah well - thought it might be the processing order mucking things up - even though content should be processed before form anyway.

Had a quick look at the code - it appears it's failing to pick up the attributes from the perch:form tag. Maybe try it with a hard-coded form id and see if that works.

Hi Duncan

Hard coding the form ID has made the form submit ok but the data isn't being passed, so I'm guessing you can't put perch:content within perch:form?

I need the client to be able to set the form fields within Perch Admin so I'm not sure the best way to do this?

That's the only downside to Perch Forms - you can't seem to be able to create / edit forms within Perch Admin.

It looks like it works (a bit) using perch:content within perch:form - but it's falling over when searching the perch:form "string" for attributes. It probably fails because it hits the closing > of perch:content and thinks it's the closing > of perch:form.

So, maybe try putting your attributes (method, app etc) before the id=

I'm not sure how much further you'll get (or if this is recommended), but that will stop the fatal error. Give it a go.

Hi Ducan

Yeap - placing the form ID at after the attributes works. Again however no data is submitted, it just recognises that the form has been submitted.

I think you've asked the same question before... ;-)
