What we need: We want to submit the data to SalesForce AND send an email to specified people containing ALL the lead information.
We've been able to work out some of this by using JavaScript and cookies, but the issue is that custom fields in SalesForce start with a number which both PHP and JavaScript don't interact with.
Other members of this form said we'd need to integrate with the WebService API.
Other Details: - We are hosted on Apache servers with PHP support. - The script should be easily editable for when we add or remove a form field. - The script should be easily editable so we can adapt it to new forms.
Please send us a message if you have any questions.
We've been working on creating web to lead forms and we've been having much success. However, we now need not only Salesforce to capture the form data, but also another PHP script to mail the leads to other people.
Two Questions 1 - Is there a way to send the variables back to the thanks page from Salesforce so we can continue using them? Either via POST or GET or a cookie.
2 - OR - Is it possible to change the variable names of the custom form fields? The current field name is 00N500000021XlJ and that doesn't work with the JavaScript & cookie scripts we're creating as variables can't start with a number. If we could change that to Newsletter or even SF00N500000021XlJ it would work.
The web to lead forms are a great way to get information into Salesforce, but it then prevents us from continuing to use the form information on our site.
We are looking for a company to outsource SalesForce integration with. We have two projects that we'd like help with.
The first is to tie existing customer forms into a SalesForce database AND keep the information live so that we can continue to use it on a site. Basically, posting one form to two different sites via PHP and/or ASP or JavaScript. It sounds simple enough, but we've had lots of setbacks with that.
The second is to manage a database of PR contacts and be able to filter and sort them based on campaign, client, if they've been called for a certain campaign, media publication, location and many other items.
If either, or both of these, interest you or your company, please send me a message by going here and then clicking 'Send this user a private message' or post below your info below. :smileyhappy:
