View 8 RepliesIt's a flash/js/php based uploading script. My main issue is that I'm decently fluent in php where I can create a simple mail() script, however, with the various JS files I'm not sure if it'd be better to create the mail function in JS.
View 1 RepliesI'm making a form using AS 2 with input fields, radio buttons,a list component and a dateChooser.[URL]..
now i need to send the results to the mail and send a confirmation email to the user which may (doesnt have to) contain the users input.
I tried all kinds of tutorials but they were all made for as1 or dindnt have the dateChooser and list component included in them.
does anybody know a good tutorial for this or a source file wich may come in handy?
I have this form in my flash file and I can't quite make it do what I want. I get the form to send, but I don't get a confirmation if it sent out OK, and I also can't make the auto response work in the php file. My Flash file has the following AS in it.

How can I get the php to report back to the result_lv and get the confirmation email from the form.
the source files work perfectly when I upload them to my server - but when I insert the form into my flash website - I am unable to receive the contact email at all. The problem must be with the flash file becuase I have not altered the php (except to send to my email)
I am using Flash CS3 (but publishing for action script2) I have double checked all my input field sare named correctly with var_names that match the php code. The form fields have been created as a moviclip named "form" and the following action script attached:

I have used the kirupa tutorial on a flash email form and it works GREAT! The only thing is I want to have required fields that need to be entered in for the form to send. If the user doesn't enter anything, it will ask them to in order to send the email.how I can do this or adapt it to the kirupa tutorial code?
View 1 RepliesI've created a form in flash to for customers to send email from the website. I'm using action script 3 - (mailto: ) There are two problems.
1) It doesn't send. A blank email form comes up that the user has to fill out - doesn't work with their email client.
2) How can I get it to validate?
I'm using Flash CS3 with AS2 and have been trying to set up a basic contact form and nothing seems to work. I used this [Url]to create the AS code for the send button for my form + the php code as well from this Kirupa link.I'm being hosted by Godaddy with the linux server with the email being sent to...When I fill out the form and submit - nothing is recieved in my inbox.Having tested the forwarding from Godaddy to yahoo - does work!

View 2 RepliesI have tried about as many tutorials as I can find online to create a contact form within my flash that emails me when someone fills out the forms, including a very good step by step at VTC. What I have found is that most of these tutorials start with the assumption that you're creating the contact form on a blank flash canvas, which is reality, is not always the case. So while I am sometimes able to get the forms to work if I do it on a brand new Flash movie, the moment I try to recreate the form within my current flash file, it stops working. I have mostly tried to recreate the contact form as a seperate movie within my flash file on it's own layer and have tried placing the Submit button within the contact form movie and also outside of it - neither works of course

I have mostly tried to recreate the contact form as a seperate movie within my flash file on it's own layer and have tried placing the Submit button within the contact form movie and also outside of it - neither works of course. Using CS3 btw.
Here's the info:
So according the image, my contact form is called "mcForm" which is a movie clip within the larger .fla on its own layer. The actions that are associated with the 1st frame in the "actions" layer above are as the following:
Here is the code itself repasted:
stop();
var gatherForm:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
//Send form function
function sendForm():Void{
gatherForm.receipient = "my@email.com";
[Code] .....
When submit is clicked. It just says waiting for server connection. The email is never sent. I think the problem is with the php.
Here is my ACS3 code
PHP Code:
// Set text formatting colors for errors, waiting..., and success mechanisms
var errorsFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
errorsFormat.color = 0xffffff;
var waitingFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
waitingFormat.color = 0xffffff;
[Code] ......
The form is not sending a message to my email. I am not sure whether the problem is in the AS 3.0 code or the PHP code, anyway here's the code:
Actionscript 3.0 code:
function handCursor(e:MouseEvent):void {
e.target.buttonMode=true;
e.target.useHandCursor=true;
} build variable name for the URL Variables loader
var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables;
[Code] .....
I am currently using a flash template from flashmo.com and i have installed it etc... The problem I have is that when you go to send a message in the contact form you cannot enter certain characters in the email box, especially the '@' symbol.
View 3 RepliesMy flash contact form is set up correctly as well as my php file. I've tested the form in flash and on the web and it sends out an email. However when I check the email, all the fields are blank. The name, email address and message all appear blank when checking the email.
AS code Code: Select allstop();
var senderLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var receiveLoad:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

I've built a contact form for my website using a [URL] tutorial on building UI elements. The final step to the tutorial is putting all the elements together in a contact form, but for some reason they've left out the dropdown menu element, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to write that code. The problem is that the dropdown menu is designed such that it's a movieclip containing several other movieclips & actionscript (button, list, scrollbar, etc). I can get it to trace the selected information with this code inside the dropdown movieclip:

View 3 RepliesI am trying to get down to the bottom of my problem with a contact form I'm using for a client. My code is as follows:
[code]...
The issue I'm having is that when I hit the submit button on my form, it doesn't send the information through. It just stays stuck on sending.... and doesn't send any information. I then ran a test with an even simpler code:Just to see if it was even connecting and I recieved this error:
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "127.0.0.1" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in
D:hostingmembershieldvhmmailtest.php on line 2
Now I don't have access to the host server because I'm not the owner. I just designed the site for the client and I have been having these issues with the form. I did test it on my server and everything worked fine which led me to believe that the problem lies in the php settings of their host server. I contacted the host server and this is what they sent me:
"Dear client, 127.0.0.1 is localhost which you cannot use to send email. Please make use of your mail server to and send and provide SMTP authentication to the remote server. Note that the FROM address has to be the same as login email.
