[SOLVED] CB Registration

Latest Version of CB and Joomla.
Using CB Conditional Plugin
Sourcer Plugin

I have a registration form with some custom fields.
I am capturing a Cell Phone number and then the Cell provider.
When these fields are populated I show a custom HTML field which allows me to write some custom code when clicked. I'm using Sourcer PLUGIN that allows me to write custom HTML, Java Script, or PHP within the HTML field.

I am having trouble capturing the Cell Phone Number field and Cell provider field from the form elements. I know how to capture the data on POST. I want to send a text with the fields provided to verify the user has put in the correct cell and provider. Currently I am doing it after registration which is fine but it would be great to validate it before the registration data is posted.

Is there a way to get these fields before POST?

Thanks, Bruce

Is there a way to get these fields before POST?

If your plugin is designed to execute PHP then yes you'd just use PHP to grab the values (e.g. $_POST[ 'FIELD_NAME' ]). There are no substitutions to grab field values from post, but as you're acting on the after registration trigger you might be able to use [FIELD_NAME] substitutions. See the below tutorial for further substitution usage information. I've no idea how this will behave with your plugin though.

Correct.

I know how to get field data on POST. When I am in the registration form and inspect the page I don't see any of my field elements. Using Google Chrome.

I want to run some code on already populated fields before the REGISTER button is clicked.

You can't do that without using an ajax call. PHP is server side. A button click is client side. To do what you're wanting you'd use jQuery to bind to the button click event, which is client side, that sends an ajax call to PHP, which is server side. Your alternative is acting on the before registration trigger, which is fired before the user is stored completely, and do your custom behavior there; there's additional triggers even earlier in the registration process as well (e.g. onBeforeSaveUserRegistrationRequest or onStartSaveUserRegistration).

Excellent, Thanks Kyle!
