I am using the API V3 to submit data from a form to my Wufoo account. I followed the example on the Entries POST API page, and I was able to successfully the data to my account.

I was wondering how I am able to check for error messages, and display the ErrorText and FieldErrors using PHP?

For example, if someone does not provide their email address in a required email field.

Here is the code I have so far:

<?
function submit() { 
	$ref = curl_init('https://myname.wufoo.com/api/v3/forms/xxxxxx/entries.json'); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-type: multipart/form-data')); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_POST, true); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, getPostParams()); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX'); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_ANY); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true); 
	curl_setopt($ref, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Wufoo.com'); 
	echo htmlentities(curl_exec($ref)); 
} 

function getPostParams() { 
	return array( 'Field4' => "you@company.com"); 
} 

submit();
?>

I am now able to display the error messages with the help of the Wufoo API wrapper. I have a couple of follow up questions:

1. I was wondering how I do set up the form on index.php (See below) to post the entries upon pressing the submit button to my-wrapper.php (See below)?

2. Is it possible to do this using AJAX so the page does not refresh?

Here's the code for index.php:


    <? require_once('my-wrapper.php'); ?>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Form</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <form id="form1" name="form1" autocomplete="off" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="">
    <!--Begin Form-->
    <div <? echo addErrors('Field4', $fieldError, 'class') ?>>
    <label id="profile" class="icons" for="Field4">Email</label>
    <input id="Field4" name="Field4" type="text" class="formreg" tabindex="1"/>
    <? echo addErrors('Field4', $fieldError, 'message')?>
    </div>
    
    <div <? echo addErrors('Field6', $fieldError, 'class') ?>>
    <label id="profile" class="icons" for="Field6">Name</label>
    <input id="Field6" name="Field6" type="text" class="formreg" tabindex="1"/>
    <? echo addErrors('Field6', $fieldError, 'message')?>
    </div>
    <!--End Form--> 
    <input type="submit" name="saveForm" value="Submit" id="submit" class="submit" />
    <input type="hidden" id="idstamp" name="idstamp" value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx=" />
    </form>   
    </body>
    </html>

Here's the code for my-wrapper.php:

 
    <?
    // API
    require_once('WufooApiExamples.php');
    
    // Wufoo
    $wrapper = new WufooApiWrapper('XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX', 'mysubdomain','wufoo.com'); 
       
    
    // Post Entries    
    $postArray = array();
    foreach ($this->postValues as $key => $value) {
        $postArray[] = new WufooSubmitField($key, $value);
    }
    
    try {
        $result = $wrapper->entryPost('xxxxxx', $postArray);
        if (!$result->Success) {  
            foreach ($result->FieldErrors as $key => $value) { 
               $fieldError[$value->ID] = $value->ErrorText;
            } 
        } 
    } catch (Exception $e) {
        //Read the error message.
    }
    
    // Add Errors
    function addErrors($fieldName, $fieldError, $add){
    	if($fieldError[$fieldName] != ''){
    		if ($add == 'message') return '<p class="errors">'.$fieldError[$fieldName].'</p>';
    		else if ($add == 'class') return 'class ="errors"';
    	}
    }
    ?>
