Formhandler

Second try:

Problem =====================================
Alias doesn't work in Finisher_Redirekt

Workaround: =====================================
Use pid instead of alias

Tested with: =====================================
-Typo3 4.5.17
-EXT:Formhandler v1.3.0
-PHP 5.3

Cause =====================================
Unknown.
I believe, it has worked earlier in Formhandler v1.2.x
Might be related to http://forge.typo3.org/issues/34650

Hi Uwe,

I can reproduce this bug in TYPO3 4.7.2, formhandler 1.3.0.

Nevertheless, the browser (Firefox 15.0) performs the redirect (can see the new redirect page ID in the address bar), but the original form is displayed and not the "Thank you" page (as intended). Additionally, the browser displays a message window, claiming that the form's content will be send to "another address".

I guess it depends on the Redirect finisher setting "headerStatusCode". According to the docs it defaults to 307. So I've tried to set it to 302 and now the redirecting and target page display works. Sample setup:

1.class = Finisher_Redirect
1.config.headerStatusCode = 302

Maybe this quick fix works for your purposes too.

Best wishes,

tommy

Hi Thomas,

Nope.
Tried 301 and 302, both didn't work with my Typo3 4.5.17 installation.

Outlook:
It could be
a) a problem with Typo3 4.5.17 in general, as it seems to work with your Typo3 4.7.2
b) a problem with my specific formhandler setup
c) a problem with the PHP version. I'm using php5.3.14 here.
d) a problem with the webserver. I'm using Mac OS X Lion with MAMP Pro here, for developement.

Cheers

Hi Reinhard,

It worked in formhandler 1.2.0 and typo3 4.5.17
But that doesn't matter any more.

The Documentation at
http://www.typo3-formhandler.com/documentation/finisher/finisher-redirect/
clearly states, to use the Page ID or URL.
I'm fine with that.

Is there a reason why you would use an alias instead of the page ID?

a) Readability of typoscript code
b) An alias is easier to remember if I type in an url manually. E.g. to check how my "Thank You"-Page for the order form looks like.

Cheers

P.S:
Thanks again to all developers for this great extension.
I just love working with it.
Most everything is where I expect it to be.
