Drupal Forms - Setting a Default Value

Question

I am using the webform module for Drupal 6 and would like to set a default value for the confirmation message of the webform whenever it is created. Would I have to create my own module to set this form value whenever a user creates a new webform? Or would I have to implement a special hook to look for when a webform is created?

Answer 1

You going to want to use the following:

customMod_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id){ 
  if($form_id == 'webform_node_form'){ 
    $form['id_of_conf_message_field']['#default_value'] = 'BLAH BLAH'
  }
}
