Trying to integrate a blind submit form and I cannot get the email address to automatically field merge. When I test the string with an email address, such as http://s[siteID].t.eloqua.com/e/f2.aspx?elqFormName=[FormName]&elqSiteID=[siteID]&emailAddress=username@companyname.com&[TrackedField]=[StaticValue] everything works perfectly. However when I try to integrate the field merge http://s[siteID].t.eloqua.com/e/f2.aspx?elqFormName=[FormName]&elqSiteID=[siteID]&emailAddress=<span class="eloquaemail">EmailAddress</span>&[TrackedField]=[StaticValue] the email address isn't picked up. The form is processed and the link is redirected me to the website but none of the user information is populated.
I've tried this with the email form field set to "field merge" and without "field merge". The form processing steps (Update Contacts - with form data, Redirect to Web Page) are setup to process the form correctly and do so when the first URL above is tested. I just cannot determine where the error is being made. The Blind Form Submit Link Generator creates the same issue. I don't know if it is how I have the form setup, or potentially if I'm missing something in the string. When I create the hyperlink I set the "Link Type" up as a website which could be a potential issue.
Any help would be much appreciated.
