Hi,

So I figured out how I am going to handle payments, so that's not an issue anymore. However, I am having some problems with outputs and the PDF the system generates.

For the outputs, when I was entering a sort of SKU in the database field for drop down lists, it was populating the exit layout with the database field rather than the frontend field, which is not correct. So I copied the frontend field to the database field, and now it puts nothing in there.. How do I get it to give me the frontend field and NOT the database value there?

Also, how do I NOT show the input on the output page? I don't want to have the form above if possible.

Then there's the PDF export, which is showing a double line border, where there should be a single line. How do I fix that formatting? It should appear EXACTLY as it does on the exit layout.

You can test it here: https://drawafence.com/index.php/try-it

In the interest of getting this resolved quickly, so I can keep building my site, I've also created an Admin account for you with the following credentials.

Hi,

This was working for a while, but I upgraded to JCE paid, and now it's back to having the space between the borders.

Here's the code. What am I doing wrong? I just want the PDF version to look the same as the screen.

Oh geez. It converted the html code into the screen output.

I've contacted JCE too, to find out if they can tell me how to fix this.

I just want the single line that I can see on the screen view to be the same on the PDF.

Hi,

Yeah, I've already done that in the editor. Doesn't change anything!

I checked the code too, and cellspacing is set to 0, as per the attached image.

Can you please advise how I fix this? I just need the PDF output have a SINGLE line around it, and it seems like that shouldn't be so hard!
