Echo specific Gravity Form fields in a multi-step form into sidebar widget

I have also tried

<?php echo $_POST['input_1_7']; ?>

if it is supposed to be form specific however this did not work for me either.

Any jQuery snippets hanging around that this would work with?

For anyone else's reference I was able to find out why this wasn't working. You must have AJAX turned off for the specific form and then you will be able to echo submitted fields into the sidebar.

However it doesn't seem to work with the standard image upload and displaying that in the sidebar. Still looking for a workaround for this.

Yes I was able to get that far however it is only returning the word "Array".

David @ Gravity Wiz mentioned to me in an email that it may be better to focus on the function he has inside of the Better Pre-Submission Confirmation here http://gravitywiz.com/2012/08/04/better-pre-submission-confirmation/

by getting it to work with the single field ID. I am not super sure where to start with echoing it but here is the function

public static function preview_image_display($field, $form, $value) {

        // need to get the tmp $file_info to retrieve real uploaded filename, otherwise will display ugly tmp name
        $input_name = "input_" . str_replace('.', '_', $field['id']);
        $file_info = RGFormsModel::get_temp_filename($form['id'], $input_name);

        $file_path = $value;
        if(!empty($file_path)){
            $file_path = esc_attr(str_replace(" ", "%20", $file_path));
            $value = "<a href='$file_path' target='_blank' title='" . __("Click to view", "gravityforms") . "'>" . $file_info['uploaded_filename'] . "</a>";
        }
        return $value;

    }

That was what I did actually :)

However David mentioned not using $_FILES array for this. He wasn't able to give me too much to go on and has helped me this far. I think I just need to find the correct markup to echo the $value of the uploaded image into the sidebar.

That is where I am currently stumped so far.

Yes just array. When using the var_dump I received

array(1) { ["input_2"]=> array(5) { ["name"]=> string(40) "Screen Shot 2012-10-28 at 2.19.33 AM.png" ["type"]=> string(9) "image/png" ["tmp_name"]=> string(14) "/tmp/phpamDHzP" ["error"]=> int(0) ["size"]=> int(59661) } }

I believe it is. I am really just trying to echo the uploaded image into the sidebar of the form as a preview of what was uploaded.

I just don't know how to pull it out of this array to display correctly. I can do it perfectly with no hitch inside a form field html element but not in the sidebar.
