Integrating a legal document into the form

I have a question and couldn't find this on your forum yet. In my form I need to include an agreement document for the individual to read and agree to when they sign up. Have you guys streamlined a way to do this?

Normally in other forms I have seen this is done by way of a pop-up window containing the document that the reader can scroll through and then mark "yes" he/she agrees with the terms.  (I realize I could add my document in the instructions window and then add a checkbox for the person to agree "yes I have read terms", but I think my doc is a too long to fit in the instruction box.)

So my question to you is, is there a way to include a brief document in the form that I overlooked?

I could also include a hyperlink to the form on another page and then have the reader return to my form to agree "yes." Is there an easy way to integrate a link if the pop-up window is not possible.

Thanks in advance!

Re: Integrating a legal document into the form

Hello,

One option would be to add a link to your legal document from the form that opened up in a new tab or window like you suggested.

The other option, and I'm not positive if it would work, would be to add an iframe in the form that the user can scroll through and read over without having to click a link or leave the page.

Re: Integrating a legal document into the form

Can you give me some guidelines how to simply insert an active link into the form?

(I probably am missing something obvious, but I couldnt find how to add a url anywhere in the documentatation)

Re: Integrating a legal document into the form

Basic HTML can be added anywhere in your form, so if you create a field, or a section field, just add in some html to the url you'd like linked to. The basic structure for a url is <a href="http://yoursite.com">Link Name</a>

Yes I was overlooking the obvious! Thanks for the clarification.  I think that will work fine for my form.

Re: Integrating a legal document into the form

When using the  <a href="http://yoursite.com">Link Name</a> link, how can I have it open a new window (pop-up) vs opening within the form?

Re: Integrating a legal document into the form

The link needs a target attribute. So it should be:

<a href="http://website.com" target="_blank">LINK!</a>

And that'll do it.
