more fields and several words in 'signup form'
i wish to build a petition (signatures*) online with dbman.

then the first step would be, in the signup form, to fill the name and secund name in the 'userid' field and the email adress in the 'email' field.

then the visitor receives automatically the password to valid his signature through a link to 'add form'.

but the problem is that the 'userid' field cannot be with 2 words (name and secund name in the 'userid' field). maybe if the 'db key' is the email it would be posible to manage (???).

and what would be the the best would be to ad other fields (comments, adress) in the signup form.

does anyone have an idea how to do this ? i don t know much about programming ...

tanx if you know Sly

I'm not sure what information you will be having your users add once they get to the add form, but I think it might be best to have them enter their first and last name, etc. there rather than on the signup form.

Have you checked the threads in the FAQ under the Admin section to see if you could find any ideas?
