Results on new page

User moon_584 2013-10-17 07:06:47

Is there a way to make the results show up on a new page rather than below the input fields or in a pop-up? It would be helpful for conversion tracking.

Hi,
the calcbuilder front works inside a module, so it can't work through several pages, you will need a front-end component to achieve this. We can think of a solution to simulate this using modules, but it would require some coding at your side.

We'd create two calculators, one will calculate and store results at session, and the result will just forward to another page with the second calculator. This second calculator will launch itself automatically, recover the session results, and show the results at the page. That would do the trick.


Some useful links about sessions:

Hope this helps, regards
