I expect to get the spinning wheel then see the form replaced by a text notification. Instead a new tab is opened leading to a dead end.</p> <p>Also, when I use preview mode in the forms section of dashboard, it works perfectly and the entry is made in both the form entries and also as a draft post. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/unexpected-domain-in-form-action-statement#post-224568 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 22:41:13 +0000 flyingchair 224568@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, I asked this question before but after reading through the source HTML I realise I did not ask it very well, so forgive me for repeating a question so I can frame it better.</p> <p>I have set up gravity forms in two places on the following site: brighterleadership.com</p> <p>One is a contact form using name, email from the advanced options and a text box entry from the standard fields. This form works correctly. I notice that the action in the form HTML is</p> <p>URL: <a href="http://www.brighterleadership.com/contact-us/" rel="nofollow">http://www.brighterleadership.com/contact-us/</a></p> <p>&lt;form method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data' target='gform_ajax_frame_1' id='gform_1' action='/contact-us/#gf_1'&gt;<br /> &lt;div class='gform_body'&gt;</p> <p>However, I have a second form for user submitted posts using name, email and then title and body from the post fields:</p> <p>URL:http://www.brighterleadership.com/share-your-story/</p> <p>But the form code is doubled up</p> <p>&lt;div id="gform_wrapper_1"&gt;<br /> &lt;form id="gform_1" action="http://www.brighterpeople.org/stories-share-yours/#gf_1" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" target="gform_ajax_frame_1"&gt;<br /> &lt;div class='gf_browser_chrome gform_wrapper' id='gform_wrapper_2' &gt;<a rel="nofollow"></a>&lt;form method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data' target='gform_ajax_frame_2' id='gform_2' action='/share-your-story/#gf_2'&gt;<br /> &lt;div class='gform_body'&gt;</p> <p>NOTE: there are two instances of the &lt;form &gt; tag. The second is correct. But another one is being added in front going to a different domain that is not connected to this site; wrong domain, wrong form ID. Where could this be coming from? It's like a ghost in the machine. I have trawled through the database and cannot see it.</p> <p>If someone could tell me where to look and what could cause a form, created on a fresh install of gravity forms, to magically prepend an irrelevant form statement in front of the correct code I would be very grateful....</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p>Phil </p>
