   Hi

   I just finished generating test forms which seems to work fine, but give me the annoying issue that they seem to break out of frames ? The way the site I'm working on was set, its main page calls sub section within a central frame. Bad design for sure, but I cannot change it right now, hence my forms are called in a frame below the site navigation. However apparently the confirmation page after a form submit seems to refresh the page and display the confirmation page only, by breaking out of the frame ? I tried adding a review page and it seems to do the same.
   Can this be avoided as it prevents me from using macform !
   Regards.

   Try this, edit your embed.php, go to line 45.
   Search for this code:

   echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">top.location = '{$submit_result['form_redirect']}'</script>";

   replace it with this one:
   

   echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">parent.location = '{$submit_result['form_redirect']}'</script>";

   so instead of "top.location", you are using "parent.location" now.

   if you have "form review" enabled, you need to do the same modification to confirm_embed.php file as well.

   Hi

   I have indeed replaced it in that page, and even wherever I found top.location it was replaced by parent.location, but still the final page breaks out of the frame !
   I wish I could change the page altogether but I cannot change the site for now, any idea what I missed ?

   Thanks.

   that's odd. can you let me know the URL to your page? So I can check it.
   If you don't want to post it here, please mail to: customer.service [at] appnitro.com

   I emailed the infos, not sure if you got a chance to check it ? If that's useful I'll post any solution here later.
   Thanks.

   I've replied yesterday. Check your spam folder in case you didn't get it.

   Otherwise, please try to edit code between line 41 in "embed.php" file, from :

   header("Location: http{$ssl_suffix}://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?id={$input_array['form_id']}&done=1");

   to become:
   

   $success = "http{$ssl_suffix}://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?id={$input_array['form_id']}&done=1";
   
   echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">parent.location = '{$success}'</script>";

   Hi Yuniar,

   I am also having this problem. I made the two changes on lines 41 and 45 but the form still breaks out of the iframe: http://laurelcrown.com/xhtml-template/product_page_bug.htm (click on "Email this page" link in ready to order box).

   Is there anything else you told denis to make this work?

   By the way, I am using an iframe called from a lightbox.

   If the code above doesn't work for some of you, try to change this code:

   parent.location

   into:

   self.location

    You can also try disabling javascript redirects when you create the embed form:

    
<?php
require("/home/machform.php");
$mf_param['form_id'] = 1;
$mf_param['base_path'] = '';
$mf_param['use_header_redirect'] = 'false'; // this disables the javascript redirect
display_machform($mf_param);
?>
