Framework form doesn't submit, only redirects

I have 3 framework forms for one contact page. The contact form works correctly, however, the rental inquiry, when submitted, it reloads the page and brings up the contact form and does not send the form via email. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. The files are attached.

the rental form requires the form querystring to load, that querystring needs to be included in the forms action so that when the form posts, it will post to the correct plugin page.


the forms action needs to pass the querysting, change:

php:
<form class="Cool_Default" id="RentalInquiry_Cool_Default" name="RentalInquiry_Cool_Default" method="post"  action="<?php echo $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; ?>">



to:

php:
<form class="Cool_Default" id="RentalInquiry_Cool_Default" name="RentalInquiry_Cool_Default" method="post"  action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]); ?><?php echo (isset($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]) && $_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"] != "")?"?".htmlentities($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]):""?>">

That worked. Not sure why this page had to be different than the other page like it, but your solution worked. Thanks.

any time you are dealing with a dynamic plugin page, your form must pass the variable used to load that plugin page.

the contact form worked because it was the default plugin page and is loaded when the variable is not set.

So would this problem also affect why my google map plug in will not show the ending address until you submit a starting address?

nope, that would be a different problem all together.

please send a link where i can see the problem to investigate the cause.
