I can only use the pop up to publish but I need the Iframe Method.
Your iframe paste contains words beginning with a colon (:).
My compiler errors on these words.
I have temporarily Changed The Colons in the iframe PASTE To another character to allow me a clean compile,
and the iframe seems to work fine but I don't know what I have broken By screwing up the CURL Statement
Is there any way you can make this CURL work without the colons?
This is a deal-breaker.
Because I need it to work with the iframe, not the popup.
What is the CURL doing for us? Do I need it?
Thank you... bob

Hello Bob,
I'm not sure I'm following you completely. For example, this is the standard iFrame code, without the script code:
<iframe id="JotFormIFrame-12345678901234" onDISABLEDload="window.parent.scrollTo(0,0)" allowtransparency="true" src="https://form.jotform.com/70433936180960" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:1105px; border:none;" scrolling="no"> </iframe>
What exactly is breaking your compiler? Since that is standard syntax and I'm not sure why it is breaking your compiler?
If you could shed some light on it, it would be great?
I'm sorry if I misunderstood you.
We'll wait for your response.
Thank you!

Hello Nik_C
Thank you for quick response.
This is my copy/paste from my... https://form.jotform.com/70405634890154
________________________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________
so... :encodeURIComponent and :encodeURIComponent Colons are the problem
as well as the period in (document.URL)
(names between parens are numeric only indexes in cobol)
Note: We use Micro-Focus Cobol compilers for our Amazon ec2 based software.

Hello Bob,
Thank you for additional information provided.
I'm still confused about the response you are getting. I understand that you are using Cobol for writing your software but I don't get where the iFrame code fits?
What exactly are you building and where your form needs to integrate there, please?
We'll wait for your response so we can assist you further.
Thank you!

We have a large (15millionLine) software running on the Amazon EC2 cloud.
The SALES and MKTG depts want to make our `SelfSetUpWizard` much scaled down
to make it UserFriendly their way.
so
I
We thought Jotform would be a good quick way because
all we(IT) have to do is learn the Jotform options for interfacing
Hidden fields inputs, and Webhook out to feed us the responses
(we embed the the Jotform iframe in our welcome page.)
but
The SCRIPT in your iframe paste contains words beginning with a colon (:).
and the cobol compiler errors on these words.
I have temporarily Changed The Colons to another character to allow me a clean compile,
and the iframe seems to work fine but I don't know what I have broken By screwing up the CURL Statement
Is there any way you can make this CURL work without the colons?
or give us an other `no ColonWord` cut/paste option,
or what happens if i remove the CURL statement?
This is a deal-breaker.
Because we need it to work with the iframe option.
What is the CURL doing for us?

If you want to, you can simply embed the Iframe part, so get your Iframe code https://www.jotform.com/help/148-Getting-the-form-iFrame-code
Before you embed the code, paste it in a text editor like WordPad, you will notice two part of codes, only copy and embed the Iframe part in your webpage, example:
Make sure to set the scrolling property to "yes", example:
Or you can embed your form using the full source code: https://www.jotform.com/help/104-How-to-get-the-Full-Source-Code-of-your-Form
Let us know if you need more help.

That is what I've done
But
My question is...
What functionality will I loose by...
not having the CURL function, as we proceed with this Jotform project
we already have 50+ hours on this project and it would kill us
if we discover after many more hours, that Jotform will not work for us.
Is it use by Webhooks?,,, which we will need to get responses back to our software.
help! ...... What happens when no CURL.

Basically, you will lose the following 2 functionalities but this is intended for the iframe element only which I guess not that important. The form itself will work using the iframe code only.
1. Auto-resize function - The script part automatically resize the iframe height whenever the length of the form changes .e.g showing/hiding fields through conditions.
2. Prepopulate function - Even if the form is iframe embedded, the script reads the URL query string and pass it to the iframe URL for prepopulation.
FYI, the script does not have to do with webhook. Webhook is triggered when the form is submitted. Here's how to setup webhook with your form http://www.jotform.com/help/245-Creating-your-first-Webhook-with-JotForm.
Hope this helps!
