ActionScript 2.0 :: Sending Forms In Flash With FormMail?
Jan 18, 2005
I'm trying to make a feature for my website where a visitor can sign up for a mailing list. i have a form on my site else where (done in HTML) and it uses the server-side script FormMail to process and deliver the form. I was wondering if there was any 'easy' way for me to use this same script from flash for this feature.
if you'd like to take a look at the feature itsself, the URL is [URL](if it comes up the size of the screen, just know it's not actually that large on the page).

I'm creating a website for a friend which it's being made using Dynamic Texts (he wants different switchable languages). Problems come when submitting the Form... I've used the same Form model (formmail) for other websites which did not use any Dynamic Text and they worked without problems. The exact problem is that the submitted Form is not received (don't think it's even sent) to the specified email address. However, if the same website does not contain any dynamic text, then the form works properly and the query is received at my mailbox. Has anybody experienced a similar situation?? I'm completely lost because I can't understand the reason for this behaviour, the only thing I know for sure is that the problem is variable related.

This matter is something I haven't been able to solve for long and now I'm really desperate to find out an answer. Here's a link to a very simple zip file (as example) containing the conflictive fla and other files, for those of you who may want to have a look at it. TO SIMPLIFY THINGS: It seems that whenever I use a couple of AS instructions to load some Dynamic text from a text file, Forms which are based in formmail, stop working (no matter if these forms are made of dynamic or static text). Why??
INTO MORE DETAILS: In the attached fla example file here, I've simplified things very much by just leaving 2 Forms (one made with Dynamic text and another one without any dynamic text on it). Very peculiar, if in frame 1 I call the variables from the text file:
[AS]webcontent= "File.txt" loadVariablesNum (webcontent, 0);[/AS] the 2 Forms stop working properly: The static one doesn't even seem to submit data and the dynamic one, it seems data has been sent but data is never received. As soon as I delete these 2 lines of AS, they work properly again (although of course, no words can be seen in the Form made with dynamic text).

I created a form for my website for customers to post information and I want this information to be sent to my email. The server does not support PHP, nor my own .pl or cgi scripts to send email. The server is Windows IIS based, so SendMail is a bust. The server says I have to use their FormMail script which is located on a separate link.

This is my first encounter with FormMail and my question is this. Can I export the variables from my Flash form to post into my server's FormMail script? If so, how? EX: My flash has a name field with the var "name_txt", subject field, email field, and message field... and the html fields my server says I can use with their FormMail are as follows

I have a AS3 fla and I have 3 simple contact fields. I am using formmail.pl to pass the data through to email. I published the swf and uploaded to my server and the data passes fine. My problem however is instead of having the default open up from the formmail.pl file is there a way with AS3 to tell flash once the data has been submitted to gotoAndStop on a specified frame and show the user my own page in the same swf file? Here is the code I have for my form. Everything resides in the first frame.

I have created a form in flash (CS5) using AS3 and Php.The test run worked absolutely fine but now I have added the form to my (original) flash movie it has a number of errors come up... Thing is that I've just spent the last 2 hours trying to get this form to work and having no success what so ever.
Scene 11152: A conflict exists with inherited definition flash.display:DisplayObject.name in namespace public.ComponentShim (Compiled Clip), Line 15000: The class 'fl.controls.TextArea' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.ComponentShim (Compiled Clip), Line 15000: The class 'fl.controls.TextInput' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.ComponentShim (Compiled Clip), Line 15000: The class 'fl.controls.UIScrollBar' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.ComponentShim (Compiled Clip), Line 15000: The class 'fl.controls.Button' must subclass 'flash.display.MovieClip' since it is linked to a library symbol of that type.

However I've spent hours trying to find out how to do something very simple in HTML.
Say I have a very simple HTML Form like this...
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="http://website.com/form">
<input type="text" name="your-name" id="your-name" />
<input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
How do I convert it to flash?
what AS3 code I should write, what should I call my form text fields and my button instance. Also where if anywhere should I put the equivalent of the <form></form> tags.

I am trying to create a quote estimator on my website. I want to create forms in flash that can take inputs (numbers) from the user and then automatically calculate the values by mutliping certain forms and and then totaling them up.
The total value does not need to be saved. No database is required.
I am assuming I need to use dynamic texts?

I wanted to have 2 email forms in a flash site. One to go to one inbox and another to go to another inbox. That's easy enough to do by editing the PHP, but not the AS3. The following code works for the first email form, but not the 2nd because of duplicate actions."What do I need to edit in the following AS3 code to get it to submit a second form?"
[as]
stop();
contact_name.text = contact_email.text = contact_subject.text = contact_message.text = message_status.text = "";
send_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, submit);reset_button.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, reset);

I've designed a site with 2 forms that use PHP. One has 3 form fields (name, email, message) which I've called 'samples'. The other has one field where an email address is submitted called 'email' for a newsletter sign up, and the pages jump to frames once the data is sent. Admittedly I've used a tutorial for this, but haven't changed anything other than the PHP file names and everything associated with these files in flash in the actions panel.I've assigned this code to the send buttons
on (release) { form.loadVariables("/samples.php", "POST");}
AND have added this to the MovieClip containing the Form fields
onClipEvent(data){ _root.nextFrame();}
The problems i'm having are that all the data isn't being received correctly. So the message form isn't working, it's only sending the first field. The newsletter form is using the samples.php file not the email.php. And secondly, where Flash should jump to the next frame once the form has been submitted, it's actually jumping to the end frame (stop actions on all frames).

I'm making a flash website for a non-profit organization. I made a guestbook with PHP and XML and my contact form with PHP, but the server I am using doesn't accept files with php, asp, js, html, or htm extensions. They are using godaddy's WebSite Tonight built-in website builder currently. They want to keep the original site for backup but cannot export the current website files because of the website builder application. Is there any way I get make a guestbook without php, asp, js, or html?

I am doing some forms in Flash Cs4 with AS3. The forms are working well, but i have a code to check if people have enter information in every field. But the verification only works for 2 field. The code is exactly the same for the other but it doesn't work. Can you double check my code and maybe explain me why it doesn't work or maybe how to replace the validation code by another.

I have created 3 forms.The forms appear to operate correctly.You receive an error message when the form hasn't been filled out correctly and when you fill the form correctly it appears to process the forms information.However the information is never received in my email account.I am assuming there is an issue with the php file.URL..

Doing some development in Flash Builder 4 using Action Script 3.0.I'm trying to have some code run each time the form is displayed.The form is not always recreated, but sometimes hidden and reused.Visual Basic used to have an Activate event that does similar to what I want.I tried Render, but that fires every time the form changes (via click, text-edit, etc.)We tried the FlexEvent.ADD, but it only fires when the form is first created, same as creation_complete.Is there a good resource that shows the form "life cycle" and all the events and when they are fired and in what order?
NOTE: I'm trying to get our forms to close when the ESC is pressed.
