   ```

3. **Test in Browser:**
   - Navigate to `/events/intergastra-2026-tablet`
   - Open DevTools → Network tab
   - Submit form
   - Verify response headers are correct
   - Check for CORB errors

- [x] Headers are set correctly
- [x] Output buffering is cleaned
- [x] Directories are created defensively
- [x] Error handlers are in place
- [x] Frontend JSON parsing improved
- [x] Test scripts created
- [x] Documentation updated
- [ ] Production deployment (manual)
- [ ] Browser testing (manual)
- [ ] HubSpot verification (manual)

## Expected Results After Deployment

1. **Response Headers:**
   - `Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8` ✅
   - `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` ✅
   - `Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate` ✅

2. **No CORB Errors:**
   - Browser DevTools should show no CORB errors
   - JSON responses should parse correctly

3. **Logging Works:**
   - Logs directory should be created automatically
   - Submissions should be logged to `v2/logs/event-lead-capture-YYYY-MM-DD.log`

4. **HubSpot Submissions:**
   - Form submissions should reach HubSpot
   - Contacts should appear in HubSpot
   - All fields should be mapped correctly

## Troubleshooting

If issues persist after deployment:

1. **Check Response Headers:**

   ```bash
   curl -I -X POST https://www.ordio.com/v2/api/event-lead-capture.php
   ```

2. **Check Logs:**

   ```bash
   tail -f v2/logs/event-lead-capture-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).log
   ```

3. **Run Diagnostics:**

   ```bash
   curl "https://www.ordio.com/v2/api/event-lead-capture-diagnostics.php?password=elc-diagnostic-2026&test=true"
   ```

4. **Check Browser Console:**
   - Open DevTools → Console
   - Look for `[EventForm]` messages
   - Check for CORB/CORS errors
