The code works fine on the text confirmation page (Form Settings &gt; Confirmation) - (where it displays a URL with querystring that feeds a page to create an invoice - using the submitted form data).</p> <p>HOWEVER, the same code when placed in the email notification to the user (Notifications &gt; Email Notification to User) - ... it only generates a portion of the querystring properly. Basically, it inserts (percent 26, %26) instead of the (ampersand, &amp;) that is needed for the querystring.</p> <p>The generated code (found in sent email) where the ampersands are replaced....<br /> <code><a href="http://s98611120.onlinehome.us/ASK-WP/?page_id=247&amp;askid=ASKNF-78195657&amp;prefx=&amp;fname=Mike&amp;lname=Bardeggia&amp;inst=Laurentian%20University&amp;regdate=18/10/2011&amp;street=537%20McKim%20Street%26city%3DSudbury%26prov%3DOntario%26postal%3DP3C%202L4%26country%3DCanada%26prod%3DASK%20License:%20Non-Funded%20Academic%20Research/Clinic%20Practice%20Evaluation&amp;price=$%20115.00%20CAD&amp;version=Performance" rel="nofollow">http://s98611120.onlinehome.us/ASK-WP/?page_id=247&amp;askid=ASKNF-78195657&amp;prefx=&amp;fname=Mike&amp;lname=Bardeggia&amp;inst=Laurentian%20University&amp;regdate=18/10/2011&amp;street=537%20McKim%20Street%26city%3DSudbury%26prov%3DOntario%26postal%3DP3C%202L4%26country%3DCanada%26prod%3DASK%20License:%20Non-Funded%20Academic%20Research/Clinic%20Practice%20Evaluation&amp;price=$%20115.00%20CAD&amp;version=Performance</a></code></p> <p>Here is the actual code from the notifications settings box (used to generate the above URL)...<br /> <code>View &lt;a href=&quot;http://s98611120.onlinehome.us/ASK-WP/?page_id=247&amp;askid={ASK Registration ID:69}&amp;prefx={Salutation:66}&amp;fname={This agreement is between Nancy Young at Laurentian University and (&quot;User&quot;) (First):55.3}&amp;lname={This agreement is between Nancy Young at Laurentian University and (&quot;User&quot;) (Last):55.6}&amp;inst={Institution:59}&amp;regdate={Today&#39;s Date:60}&amp;street={Work Address (Street Address):5.1}&amp;city={Work Address (City):5.3}&amp;prov={Work Address (State / Province):5.4}&amp;postal={Work Address (Zip / Postal Code):5.5}&amp;country={Work Address (Country):5.6}&amp;prod={ASK License: Non-Funded Academic Research/Clinic Practice Evaluation (Name):75.1}&amp;price={ASK License: Non-Funded Academic Research/Clinic Practice Evaluation (Price):75.2}&amp;version={Version of the ASK required:79}&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Your Invoice &gt;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code></p> <p>The above code is the EXACT same that is used to generate the message in the confirmation box on the "Thank Your for your submission" page - and in that case the &amp; (ampersands) are not replaced - and the URL when clicked - populates the Invoice page properly.</p> <p>If you want, you can try it out yourself (use your email address in the form) - Get the email (that has the URL problem) and see the "Thank You" page - (where the same "Invoice link" works.</p> <p><a href="http://s98611120.onlinehome.us/ASK-WP/?page_id=63" rel="nofollow">http://s98611120.onlinehome.us/ASK-WP/?page_id=63</a></p> <p>I hope someone has some insight.</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Mike</p> <p>P.S. I'm using Gmail as my email client - if for some reason, GMAIL might be doing the "replacement". However I don't think so, because I have another form that WORKS fine for both the email and the "thank you page" URLs. I've compared the two - ad nauseum, and don't see a difference! </p>
