    Good day all,

    Is there any way to display the output of a submitted form embedded within a Joomla wrapper (iframe) on another page?

    What I am trying to do is that I have set up an email subscription form within a wrapper. After the form submission is sent it reloads the form RESULT – which is a success message for user subscription – in the wrapper, while I would like it to be displayed on an individual second page of my Joomla website.

    Is there a way to redirect the “success message” to another page so that it is displayed there. Instead of having it loaded inside the wrapper area in the same page.

    Hope I have explained myself properly.;)

    Should I seek for a URL redirection extension in Joomla extension directory or … what?!

    Thanks,
    Vaalf

    Hi vaalfco,

    the problem is, that everything inside the wrapper stays inside the wrapper. Even if you load a new page or “browser” a page inside that wrapper, it will stay in there.

    You could try to configure the newsletter success page to open in the parent window for example. A normal has the options target=”_parent”. This should look like


    <a target="_parent" href="http://url.org">link</a>

    The second option is to put this inside the <head> of your newsletter page


    <base target="_parent" />

    If none of this helps, you’ll have to utilize Javascript. It really depends what newsletter system it is and how it works (submits the entered data).

    Cheers

    Frank
