You can use check boxes, radio buttons, lists, etc. For example, with checkboxes, you would have:

<input type="checkbox" name="group" value="10" /> Volleyball
<input type="checkbox" name="group" value="11" /> Basketball
<input type="checkbox" name="group" value="12" /> Tennis

The user will be assigned to the groups selected on the form.
Warningnote
titlePlease note:
  • Use the Codes Table to look up the Group IDs (they are always integers).
  • To set whether a field should be required, configure that property in your Recipient fields
  • Each recipient field can accept up to 100 characters. You can use the maxlenght attribute of an input field to limit the input to 100 characters. For more information on this, see for example: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_maxlength.asp
  • You can submit a value invisibly when then form is submitted by setting a field as hidden (type="hidden")
  • You can pre-fill a field with the value that currently exists in the database by using dynamic fields. For example, value="[name]" to pre-fill the first name text input field with the recipient's name
  • The form must always include a hidden or visible field with name="email" and value="[email]". Otherwise an error message will be shown when the form is submitted.
  • Remember that Recipient fields are shared across all Lists in the same account.
  • Anybody that fills out a Profile update form is automatically assigned to a new group that is created with the name of the form. To prevent this from happening, remove the following line of code from the HTML that is created by default by the system when you add a new form:

    <input type="hidden" id="apgroup" name="apgroup" value="ID of the new group added automatically">
