Email Forms That Send Email To Other Email Addresses
hello, well, I'm not sure who to ask about this problem. The thing is I really want to make an email form that can send email to other people. I have seen email feedback forms here that send email to my address but I would really appreciate it if someone could help me make one that sends email to other addresses. I have made an email feedback form already and its at http://www.jeviwebs.com/beatles/mail.swf if you want to view it. If any of you know of any tips, please email me or respond to my post here thanks! BTW, that feedback form was based on matthew summers tutorials here

it is in the send button where I have the problem

here is the action script for the action layer:

recipient = "";
targetpage = "http://www.jeviwebs.com/beatles/ecard.htm";
stop();

this works ok since you will specify the email address of the person to send email to (thus the blank recipient variable) but here is the main problem...the actionscript for the send button....since I want to send emails to other people, I can't use my cgi bin for that.

on (release) {
getURL("http://myaddress.com/cgi-sys/mailform.cgi", "lower", "POST");
}
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(2);
}

I know that there is a way through this...I can change and do actionscript if someone can help me out...thanks you guys

Forms, Email And Flash
Howdy,

I'm running Flash 5 and I'm looking for a way to have the user fill out a form in a Flash swf on a web site and then have the answers emailed to an email address.

I'd want the email to be sent without the user having to access any email application. Is this a back end issue, asp/php etc or can I preform this operation using just Flash, HTML and JavaScript?

Any help is good help. Thank you in advance.

Flash Email Forms And Attachements
I've created a nice email form in Flash that sends variables to a .cgi
script.
The variables get delivered just fine to the designated email recipient
(cf. _F5B_, Chapter 24, pp. 696ff.).

Is there any way (or better, publically accessible example) of how to
also script the movie to:

1. Take a screenshot of the current Flash movie, and
2. Attach that screenshot to the email post that is being sent via the
Flash form?

I realize that the screenshot might also have to be scripted so that the

graphic is saved, say, to the desktop.

Thanks very much for any assistance.

Flash, Forms, Email, CGI, And Tripod
Hi everyone,
My server for my website is thru Tripod.com (inexpensive). Im in the middle of creating a form/email that can be filled out thru my Flash (MX 2004) site and sent to my cgi bin, to then be emailed to a default email address.

Im so terribly lost. Ive found some info online about creating email forms in Flash but Tripod is kinda (how can I say this?) backasswards with their cgi. I am a TOTAL beginner when it comes to cgi script (for all I know Im using the term incorrectly). Is there any simple way to get this up & functioning without having to learn everything there is about cgi? My classmate told me Tripod uses their own bizzarre cgi scripts, which makes me feel a little hopeless when searching for instructions/tutorials...

If anyone is a tripod guru AND a flash guru, id SO greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks,
kristin

Sending Forms In Flash To Email Account

thanks

(still) FLASH 4 Email Validation In Forms Help Needed
Of course i know it would be much simpler to copy and paste a finished action script into a Flash MX forms action button, but i no longer have MX, always preferred that ol Flash 4.

The issue i have with my HTML contact forms is that there is a new generation of script hijackers at it and they bother me big time, so i want to change to contact forms in flash to never give them a chance to know the scripts name or location on the server.

I got the form and no problem there, i got scripts, no problem there, i got input validation to everything - but something intelligent for the email form field.........

I saw some posts on this (i searched already through this and other forums) but most are for other Flash versions or i do not undertsand them.....

here is my actionscript so far:
On (Release)
If (FirstName eq "")
Go to and Stop (2)
Else If (Email eq "")
Go to and Stop (3)
Else If (ToSubject eq "")
Go to and Stop (4)
Else If (Description eq "")
Go to and Stop (5)
Else If (ToComments eq "")
Go to and Stop (6)
Else
Load Variables ("http://useroo.com/advertisement/12php/0MailPHP.php", 1, vars=POST)
Go to and Stop (7)
End If
End On

This just checks if anything is in the email box, but it should check for the @, the . and perhaps a number of letters as well.

Anyone still in the knowing on how to do this??????

How Do You Make Email Type Forms Inside Of Flash?
Please post! and may your post actually help too, please..!

“ ” Syntax In Flash Text Fields > Email Forms
So, here’s the code:

this.sendButton.onRelease = function() {

var subject:String = "Appointment Request";

var cr:String = "
" +" "; // “cr” = “Carriage Return” plus “tab”.

var body:String = "Appointment Details" + cr + cr +
"Client Name: " + _root.textFields.userName.text + cr +
"Client Email Address: " + _root.textFields.userEmail.text + cr +
"Client Contact Phone: " + _root.textFields.userPhone.text + cr +
"Preferred Date: " + _root.textFields.userDate.text + cr +
"Preferred Time: " + _root.textFields.userTime.text;

var s:String = "mailto:appointments@sorepoint.com.au?subject= " + subject + "&body=" + body;

getURL(s, "_self", "GET");
}

Now, here’s the problem: The resulting email form will not recognize the “
” syntax. It simply puts the contents of all the text fields on one line.

Tested on Mac OSX 10.4.5, Mail 2.0.7 as well as Windows machines. Same result for both. I’m using Flash8Pro and AS 2.

I have already tried using <br> and
and all the other options I can find with Google. No difference.

Others I have asked have had the same problem, but no-one has an answer. There must be someone who has found the solution somewhere on planet Earth!

Here’s the link to see the problem in situ: http://www.sorepoint.com.au

Appreciate wisdom (and wit) from any sagacious and perspicacious souls.

Email Forms, Feedback Forms
I have posted the same topic on the other section but i thought perhaps this one would be more appropiate?

I need help with creating a feedback forms (name, phone nubmer, email, comments etc) in a flash site.

I have d/n a CGI script that comes with the tutorial in Flash Kit. and I also found a PHP scripts that i was told it should do the same thing.

I am new to BOTH, CGI or PHP whatever,
After i read the CGI mail form tutorial , it seems like i need to link the button to cgi-bin/whatever.cgi right? How about PHP? Questions is DO i just paste the PHP code in the action windows of flash MX or place the code in a html page that creates a seperate window?

What is easier for newbees like me and is there any easier approprach?

How Do I Send The Results Of A Radio Button To An Email?
I have a form email I'm doing. It basically has a text box for the users email....and a text box for the message they are sending.

In addition to this...I'm trying to give them a choice of five radio buttons.

I'd like the result of which radio button they select to be sent along with the message they are sending.

How do I do this?

I'm sending the variables from the text boxes using this...

on (press) {
// send variables in form movieclip (the textfields)
// to email PHP page which will send the mail
form.loadVariables("email.php", "POST");

}

But how would I do the same with the radio button? What is the variable for the radio button? The data field in the parameters? The instance names? I'm confused?

How would I change the following php code to incorporate the radio button info?

<?php
/************************************************** *
* PHP 4.1.0+ version of email script. For more
* information on the mail() function for PHP, see
* http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

// First, set up some variables to serve you in

// should be. It's a good idea to choose your own

// help prevent spam filters from snatching this email
// out from under your nose when something unusual is put.

$sendTo = "devon@devontracey.com";
$subject = "My Flash site reply";

// variables are sent to this PHP page through
// the POST method. $_POST is a global associative array
// of variables passed through this method. From that, we
// can get the values sent to this page from Flash and
// assign them to appropriate variables which can be used

// header information not including sendTo and Subject
// these all go in one variable. First, include From:
$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . "<" . $_POST["email"] .">
";
// next include a replyto
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "
";
// often email servers won't allow emails to be sent to
// domains other than their own. The return path here will
// often lift that restriction so, for instance, you could send
// email to a hotmail account. (hosting provider settings may vary)
// technically bounced email is supposed to go to the return-path email
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];

// now we can add the content of the message to a body variable
$message = $_POST["message"];

// once the variables have been defined, they can be included
// in the mail function call which will send you an email

Need To Send ASP Results To Flash, Preferably Into Xml Results Packet?
I am creating a flash page that will pull images from a folder without specifying each image name. I have the script I need in ASP to get the image names from the folder but now I need to see this in flash. I have used the xml connector quite a bit and would be happy to just get the information back as an XML results packet. Of course if there is an easier way to do this I am open to suggestions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Submiting Files Through Flash
Is is possible to submit a file to server using a Flash form (and not a HTML form). Possibly JavaScript?

Any hints greatly appreciated.

Results From A Form Submission Does Not Keep The Fields In Order When I Get The Email
I created a form and it works fine but when I get the email back the fields are out of the tab order or out of wack meaning they are not in order that I set the acceptabilities to.

Is this something in the Action script I have to add and what would it look like or do I need to edit the CGI script?

I can provide a link or script let me know.

Thanks

Scroll Images/Shopping Cart/email Results/Q's?
Joined: Oct 2002

Monday, June 02, 2003 9:47 AM __(New!)

Hi folks,
I'm a novice action scripter just about to start a rather large cd-rom project.
The requirements being .. you use a navigation menu to select a product.
This brings up a long scrollable product detail screen with multi medium resolution images.
a> whats the best way to implement this..? as I've seen scrolling in flash chug along at the best of times, let alone with heavy images in it. My guess would be that the menu triggers a html frame with an html scrolling window. (it all has to be self contained, no pop-ups etc). Is this going to be a head ache to do..?
Within this product detail screen, the user is given the option of adding this product to a list of samples they require. This list will most likely build up in a corner of the screen as the user progresses through the products. Once happy they have enough, this list of selected products (much like a shopping cart) is then emailed off to the company.
b> How do i implement such a beast..? What action script commands etc do i have to familiarize myself with..? is anyone aware of any open source goodies that i could plug together to achieve this..? what would this process be called..? (for forum/google searches etc) anyone with any insights into this feature..?
please share the wisdom.. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by the impending task at hand.
Thanks all for reading. Any comments much appreciated.
Cheers
Jim

Email Forms
I want an email form on my site so people can email me. I tried several cgi scripts, but I cant seem to get it right. BTW, the sendmail path of the F2S servers...is that

Hiyas, First time on this part of the forum. I have upto now been using swish 2.0 so i have a basic understanding of the way swf files work however I want to make an email form to add to my site and I know that at the moment swish just can't do that. I have Flash 5 and Flash MX and have been looking around at tutorials rearding this but all I seem to find is tutorials for Flash MX and "ASP CDONTS" which I know nothing about. Is it possible to make an email form in flash MX without "ASP CDONTS" and if so does anyone know any good places for tutorials or would anyone here be able to help me in this matter.

I know it sounds as if I am being lazy, but I just can't get my head round it.

Any help at all would be grateful,

Email Forms
Hi, I followed the kirupa tutorial on making a flash email form, with php. If you go to http://www.ksd-design.co.uk/invoice/KSD.html and click contact, you can see it. But all the input text boxes, have something in, of which i dont understand, and when it emails to me, it doesnt send any of the information except whats in the enquiry box. Please can someone tell me where I have gone wrong...

Secondly, As the page loads you will see a load of text about the company. This is dynamic, but if you click profile, it only shows the first bit of that dynamic text, I have set it to multiline, the vvariable name is correct - because otherwise that first line wouldnt appear......

Please can someone help me

Thanks

Alex
