Muliple links to same form on a single web-page with varying parameters.

I have a client using a feedback form that is opened in a lightbox via new JotformFeedback(...).

It's a product site and he has multiple products on a page and want to use JotForm as a "Request a Sample" capability.

He wants to have multiple links to open this form per product on a page and to pre-populate a form field via iframeParameters to pre-set each form submission with different details depending on the product specific link clicked. 

If I try to call new JotformFeedback(...) more than once I end up with a single form that initially appears empty and when its close button is pressed it displays repeated content.

Is there a way I can have multiple links to the same form on a page, each with different iframeParameters?

Could you share the webpage where the form is embedded so that we can check and assist you further?

Hi, Kiran

Website using this (but with the workaround below is) http://www.drillpine.biz/v18-testsite/acatalog/Necklaces.html
The “Request a Sample” links are the ones that fire JotForm.

Problem is marked in red this code in form.jotformeu.com/static/feedback2.js

setLinkListener:function(){
var linkIdentifier='lightbox-'+this.options.formId;
var $this=this;
$jot("."+linkIdentifier).each(function(){
$jot(this).click($jot.proxy($this.showWindow,$this));
});
$jot('#'+linkIdentifier).click($jot.proxy(this.showWindow,this));
}

This requires each link that uses the same form to have identical classnames and this ends up erroneously grouping the forms.

My workaround is to use links like:

Request a Sample

And amending new JotformFeedback to add a parameter anc:

And amending feedback2.js to use:

setLinkListener:function(){
var linkIdentifier='lightbox-'+this.options.anc;
var $this=this;
$jot("."+linkIdentifier).each(function(){
$jot(this).click($jot.proxy($this.showWindow,$this));
});
$jot('#'+linkIdentifier).click($jot.proxy(this.showWindow,this));
}

I hope you understand the above and can provide a solution that doesn’t require modifying your code.

Actually, the workaround you created was the solution if you are embedding multiple feedback forms on the same webpage. This is due to the fact that your page/button makes multiple calls to the same JavaScript file if you do not change the code of the other feedback form.
