   My form data processing program will not process html data. Your simple text is still html. Is there any way that I can change the form data (email)to plain text?

   Thanks,

   Joe

   MachForm's "Simple Text" is not non-html plain text. It still has bold text and hyperlinked email address in the email.

   So how can I get rid of the "Bold" and hyperlink?

   Try this, edit includes/helper-functions.php file.

   Search around line 363 and you'll find this block of code:

   //compose text format
   foreach ($entry_details as $data){
   
   	if(empty($data['value']) || $data['value'] == ' '){
   		continue;
   	}
   	if($data['element_type'] == 'textarea'){
   		$email_body .= "<b>{$data['label']}</b> <br />".nl2br($data['value'])."<br /><br />\n";
   	}elseif ($data['element_type'] == 'checkbox' || $data['element_type'] == 'address'){
   		$email_body .= "<b>{$data['label']}</b> <br />".$data['value']."<br /><br />\n";
   	}elseif ($data['element_type'] == 'file'){
   		if($target_is_admin === false){
   			$data['value'] = strip_tags($data['value']);
   			$email_body .= "<b>{$data['label']}</b> - {$data['value']} <br />\n";
   		}else{
   			$data['value'] = strip_tags($data['value'],'<a>');
   			$email_body .= "<b>{$data['label']}</b> <br />".$data['value']."<br /><br />\n";
   		}
   	}else{
   		$email_body .= "<b>{$data['label']}</b> - {$data['value']} <br />\n";
   	}
   
   }

   
   You will need to remove all bold (<b></b>)tags from there.

   Then few lines below those block, you'll find this:

   $mail->IsHTML(true);
   
   change it to:

   $mail->IsHTML(false);

   Hi, Yuniar:

   Thanks for your help. But after doing that, the email became like this:

   <div style="font-family:Lucida Grande,Tahoma,Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;font-size:12px">First Name - Joe
   Last Name - Homps
   Email - joe@msn.com
   Country - Canada
   </div>

   Sorry, the bbPress transferred the /b into line break. The original email that I got after I changed the code contains the "div style" as well as the </b>. There is no actual line breaks between the fields.

   I've just sent the file to your email. Try it please.

   Let me know if it still doesn't work either.

   Hi, Yuniar:

   I couldn't believe someone will walk that extra mile to serve his customers. Your support is superb and very much appreciated.

   The email still contains the email address (form data) as a hyperlink and my form data processing software still can't process it. Is there any way to remove the hyperlink?

   Thanks,

   Joe

    Did this get posted some where else?
    Im having the same problem.
    I did this step:

    $mail->IsHTML(true);
    change it to:
    $mail->IsHTML(false);

    But the <br /> is still there.

    Thanks!
