I want to put a simple check box in the order-form so that the user can accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy (like below):
I would like that Terms of Service and Privacy Policy could be directly linked to the documents.
Can this be done?
If not - please advise on how you've handled this legally sensitive part of the FORM?
-------------------
Please note:
I am aware of the Agreement Condition box - but, in my case, it is not practical nor can I put the links inside for direct access of those documents.

Thank you for your comment!
I know that I can change the HTML upon the site's export - and make a "check box" within the form the way I want it.
But, this is a very common needed feature which should be a part of the form object by default (similar like the "attach file" feature is already a part of the form object).
Yes, extra coding is always an option - but in WSX5 (since it's a WYSIWYG software) should be used as seldom as possible - and not for such a common things like setting-up "the Agreement check box".

Regarding the link you posted:

This is a simple translating issue - and not (directly) related to my question.
(It > En) ... of what is not foreseen by the available options, it is almost always possible to obtain the same in EXTRA, ... even for non-experts; ... just ask in the Forum and a minimum of commitment, which generally consists of a simple copy/ paste ...
... unfortunately I can't try; I don't have a PC and I don't have the program ...
... but you, according to Andre's post, could do a simple test, for example by replacing in the language field indicated there, the words
I agree
... with this string:
I agree - (I have read the <a href="page_privacy.html" > Privacy </a>).
... ... ... to confirm or not, give it a go; ... a matter of a click ...

Yes, you are right - but if I change this in the LANGUAGE settings (language field) - the same expression will be used in all my pages in that particular language (i.e. English).
And, what is OK for a certain website - could not be OK for the other: on some websites I'll need a simple: "I agree", but on the other I would need a different expression... So, this is not an universal solution.
... OK, yes, you're right, ... but in this case the problem is easily solved; ... for each different site you can create its own dedicated content language, calling it for example english2.xml, as indicated here in the Guide:

(... otherwise, and you are interested in trying my trick/escamotage, you have to show me the LINK of the page with the form_mail...)

"Thank you very much! Very clever workaround - will try today!" - not at all.
"If you can set my post to IDEA? This is something that could be useful for many users" - done.

Trying to implement the solution you gave me - but I can not set the MULTIPLE CHOICE field to mandatory.
Since it is, in my case, a confirmation of an agreement - it should be set as such.
Is there a way to do it - even with the custom coding in WSX5?
Sorry, my site is still OFFLINE, so I can not give you the URL.
Thanx in advance!
... ... mandatory, it is not possible for the
Multiple Choice field:

Thank you!
I was thinking that it could not be mandatory because it's multiple choice and it will need an extra code to check what value has been selected...
For now, I just used a single choice field. Yes - it's a RADIO BUTTON and not a check-box - but it's good enough...

And, I have not thanked you about your great info that different project in i.e. English could use a different XML file (I didn't know that the WSX5 would allow that...)

the need is not very complicated! but doing it is no longer !!!!

I didn't get what you tried to say - you can re-write this comment in French!
The need is not complicated in fact, but to do it is.
Tired by the moving...
2 days done... again one day next week.

Yep!

Luckily the weather is nice (hopefully in France too) - even a bit too hot for my taste - but it's far better than to be moving when raining!
Cheers!
@Sinisa.... yes...
