Please replace the ??? with your data!

On my form (see addy above) I have a confirmation email sent that includes the form data. I call most of the data via the {_fieldNN} syntax. However, for some fluky reason, one of the fields doesn't transfer to the email and I get the following…

=========================

Hello, this note is confirmation that you submitted your 2008 Week 1 picks at August 30, 2008, 6:10 pm. Your picks are listed below for reference. Good luck!

NYG
ATL
{_field5}
MIA
BAL
NE

=========================

Why is it not sending the input from the radio button for Field 5?  Thanks!

Also, is there a better way to just include ALL form input in the auto-confirmation email?  That'd be much easier, but it only appears to be an option for the admin email.

You could allow the user to select to be CC'ed then they'd receive a copy of the admin email.

That's indeed odd. You can try and reference it alternatively by name, problem is that you didn't assign labels and this may break the referencing altogether. I'm surprised that the first (NYG, ATL ..) actually worked.

Here is what I would do:

  • give each radio option block a label, something that makes sense for you
  • and then use CSS to hide these labels, e.g.
    • li#li–4 { display:none; }
