Get Form Value


    The Get Form Value action reads the content of a form text, text area, or password field in the current page. This action depends on input from the viewer in the form text field.

    Trigger the action with a browser-triggered event set to OnUnload (or OnCall if you attach it to a form image that serves as a Submit button). In the Head Action Inspector, choose Action > Getters > Get Form Value. Enter the name of the form in the Form text box and the name of text field in the Element text box.

    If your form contains more fields you want to have read, insert more Get Form Value actions and set them up as required. Set up companion actions that process the result--for example, a Set Cookie action that stores the contents of various Get Form Value actions on the viewer's hard disk. (See WriteCookie.)
