How Can I Have Multiple Input Text Fields Send To My Email?

Combine Multiple Input Fields To Email Body
Hi, thanks to anyone who can help.

I'd like to create a very simple form in Flash 8 to be sent through a users standard email programme like outlook, no php etc. I'd like to have seven multiple line input text fields like:
1) Name
2) Address
3) Postcode
4) Telephone number
5) Work Title
6) Query
7) Email Address

When they press a send button I want their email programme to create an email to me with the body displaying the seven points in a formatted list, preferably with the titles in bold, like this:


Name: Richard Windsor
Address: 11 House Road, Fulham, London
Postcode: SW1 788
Telephone: 0207 381 0000
Job Title: Film Buff
Query: What's your favourite film?
Email Address: Ilooklikejamesbond@noyoureallydont.com


Can anyone tell me how or if it is possible to combine input fields to the body section of the action line of

mailto:" + to + "?subject=" +subject+ "&body=" + body.

The input field text boxes are already named, text1 through text10.
Thank you very much. Best, Ferris

Email Form In Flash Using PHP - Input Fields Won't Allow Input?
I've used this tutorial http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_email.htm

to create an email form. When I test in Flash, the input fields work fine. However when I publish it to the server I'm using, it won't allow the fields to be clicked on! You can see it here...www.tagdenim.com

(click on the Email List button at the bottom right.)

Any one else have this problem? I'm pretty sure I got all the code right, and I know for a fact that my server supports PHP. I'm using godaddy's server, btw. Maybe I have to turn the PHP on or something??? not sure. I'm a newbie to using PHP and Flash together. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Send Email From "input Text Field" Or Form...HElp
I'm trying to figure out how to send email without launching a
composition window (from an email client). I've gone through some
tech notes on macromedia.com, but can't find what I'm looking for!
I have an "input text field" and "send" button. I want the user to be able
to enter their email address and click the button to send the info without
launching another window or app. I know it's probably a Variable thing...
I've tried and can't get it to work. Any ideas would be really appreciated.
Thanx!

Help Modifying This Script To Validate 2 Email Input Fields
Hi,

I have a script that i have been using for some time now to add a subscriber functionality to my sites. It consists of an input text field for an email address, and a submit button. When the submit button is pressed, the input text field is checked for valid email address syntax, and if its true, the user goes to the next frame where there is a thankyou message, and if its false, a text saying 'please make sure you entered a valid email' is made visible. There is also a reset button clearing the input field.

I did not write the script myself (((shame))). I am now trying to use this same script as a 'tell-a-friend' script, and so all I really want to do is have 2 input text fields checked for correct email syntax input, but I'm confused as to how to modify the code...I have tried a bunch of stuff.....

Below is the original script and I would be very grateful if anyone could help me out here. The ONLY modifcation I have made so far is to add a second input text field and called it 'email2', and made the default for that input field empty......

Many Many Thanks in advance!!

Cheska

CODE:




stop();
// Making the default setting for below mentioned textfields
email1 = " ";
email2 = " ";
//
//-------------------------------------------------------
// Submit Button action
submit.onRelease = function() {
//Add Path of the php file
feedbackpath = "form/mailto.php";
//
str1 = email1.indexOf("@");
str2 = email1.indexOf("@")+1;
str3 = email1.charAt(str1+1);
str4 = email1.lastIndexOf(".");
str5 = email1.charAt(str4+1);
len = length(email1);
counter = 1;
flag = 0;
while (Number(counter)<=Number(len)) {
Char = substring(email1, counter, 1);
if (Char ne "@") {
flag = Number(flag)+1;
}
counter = Number(counter)+1;
}
//E-Mail Address validation
if (str4<=str2 || str3 == "." || str5 == "" || Number(flag) != Number(len-1)) {
condition2 = "";
emailmark._visible = true;
} else {
condition2 = "ok";
emailmark._visible = false;
}

if (condition2 == "ok") {
loadVariablesNum(feedbackpath+"?name="+name+"&emai l1="+email1+"&feedback="+suggestion, 0);
gotoAndStop(2);
}
};
//
//-------------------------------------------------------
// Reset Button action
reset.onRelease = function() {
// Making the default setting for below mentioned textfields
email1 = " ";
// Making '*' Marks Invisible
emailmark._visible = false;
};

Send User Input (image) As Email Attachment Back To Me
Hi everybody,

I have an interface where the user basically colors a picture and adds a few bits and pieces. I'd like them to then be able to hit a "Submit" button and send an image of what they've done back to me by opening their email application (Outlook, or whatever) and attaching the image. Is this possible? Is there a better way to achieve the same goal? Any ideas?

Thanks for the help.

PHP To Send Email To Multiple Recipients?.. How?
I have a contact form that calls a php script which sends an email along to the address specified....pretty basic right?... RIGHT. Well.. i need to alter the script to send the same email to multiple email addresses. Let's use these as the addresses i want to send the mail to:

name_one@comcast.net
name_two@gmail.com
name_three@hotmail.com

Since i understand exactly NOTHING about PHP...the PHP.net site was no help to me... and i tried all the things that seemed logical to make it work...but have had no success.

Could anyone help me out with this?...I'm sure it's something simple... but i am apparently riding the PHP short-bus.

here's my current PHP script:

PHP Code:




<?
    $subject = $_POST['subject'];
    $message = $_POST['message'];
    $from = "From: ".$_POST['name']." <".$_POST['email'].">";
    $to = "name_one@comcast.net";
    if (isset($_POST['reply']) && $_POST['reply']=="1") $message .= "

The sender of this message has requested a reply email about something...";

    /* and now mail it */
    $mail_success = mail($to, $subject, $message, $from);
    if ($mail_success == true) {
        echo '&faultCode=0&';
    } else {
        echo '&faultCode=1&';
    }
?>

Single Email Form - Multiple Possible 'subject' Fields
Thanks to erlenmeyer71 for the help earlier on this.

Here's what I want to do:

I have 25 pages w/ a button on each that calls an email form. Each movie will substitute a different value for the 'subject' field. That value will then be sent onward to my formmail script.

So far I have been able to forward a variable from my files into the single form. A dynamic text field displays the correct variable in each case.

Problem: When I submit this form to my formmail script, the value for the 'subject' variable is not passed from the dynamic text field. The script thinks no value is being passed, and ignores the variable entirely. Thus... no subject is specified.

How can I pass the contents of a dynamic text field to a script?

Anyone?

Many thanks.

Length Converter And Multiple Input Fields
Ok..this one is a biggie-

I have multiple text boxes that are pixels, inches, feet, meters, miles and millimeters. I understand listeners but for the life of me, can't get this to work.

I need to have all the other textboxes change to specified mathematical equations to convert that length measurement of the one being typed in is. For example, you type "300" in the pixels box, and all the other boxes cange according to what you put, I am guessing a onChanged listener.

All the textbox names are in an array like this:
code: textboxes = new Array();
textboxes[0] = Pixels;
textboxes[1] = Inches;
textboxes[2] = Feet;
textboxes[3] = Miles;
textboxes[4] = Meters;
textboxes[5] = Millimeters;
And I'm having problems getting Flash to recognize that these are instance names of text boxes. I have gotten this as well:
code: for (i=0; i<textboxes.length; i++) {
trace(textboxes[i]._name);
}
Which has worked as well. Then, I get stuck. How can I get Flash to recognize that the focus is on one of these textboxes, then when it is changed, change all the others as well? This would be easy if I had one to change, but the fact of the matter is there are 6 and I can't find a way to get the text to change for any of em. Please help.

Automatically Tab Through Multiple Input Fields When Max Characters Is Reached
Flash 5.0 is not cooperating! I'm trying to build a top-level install that at one point will prompt the user for a serial number. This is split into 3 input fields seperated by hyphens, in classic MS style. I need the selected text field to advance when the current one is filled. In my example my serial number will have a 14-7-7 character format. After the user enters the 14th character in the first field I would like the second field to become selected and the next character entered should start this field off.

Sounds easy enough, right?

Everyone is probably thinking of the Selection object. The only problem is that the 15th character is not being added to the second field. Here is the (pseudo)-code that I have included to an off-screen Button:

on (keypress "<Tab>") {
if ((Selection.getFocus() == "_level0.field1")&&(_level0.field1.length==14) ) {
Selection.setFocus("_level0.field2");
}
}

etc.

How can I make that last (15th) character entered carry over? Please help! Thanks!

Enable User To Send Page To Multiple Email Recipents
Hi,

I am building a website in flash and one of the linked pages needs to be something similar to this http://www.circleofpromise.org/spread-the-word.php. I have no idea how to do this except for the fact it apparently needs to be done in PHP which I have no clue how to use. Does anyone know of a tutorial for a novice like me?

Thank you,

Need Your Help Loading Multiple External Text Into Multiple Dynamic Text Fields
Hi all,

I can't seem to get the external tex file loaded into a dynamic text field.
I am trying to display an external text file into a dynamic text field using a next page button. The layout is this I have 80 frames. Frames 1-10 with a static text field with text & a next page button and Frames 11-20 with a dynamic text field with a previous button. I want to onRelease of the next page button in the first set of 10 frames to load the external text file into the dynamic text field of the next set of 10 frames. Also, being able to jump back and forth from next page to next.

Below I layed out all the contents in my test.fla file.

Hope this will give you an understanding of what I am trying to do.

I need to be able to click a next page button and loading an external text file into a dynamic text field, vice versa.

I have set the variable in the text file.

I used this code to try and load the text file into a dynamic text field, using actinscript. Which frame or frames do I need to include this script in? I know it has got to be multiple ones.

var styles = new TextField.StyleSheet();
styles.load("cssdocName.css");

textfieldName.html = true;
textfieldName.styleSheet = styles;

var lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

lv.onData = function(content) {
textfieldName.text = content;
}

lv.load("htmldocName.html");

Thanks for your time!

Help With Email Form - Input Text Boxes Not Allowing Input
i placed an email form into a movie clip in this site...and the input text boxes are no longer allowing me to type into them.

the email form (which i got from flashkit), as it's own file, works fine, so i know it's possible...but for some reason when i take the movie clip from one file and drag it into the one i'm working on...it loses that input text funcionality. All the actionscript is the same...everything is identical...i don't get it.

i even tried to place it on top of a movie clip within the main content clip thinking maybe because it was an mc within an mc within an mc that had something to do with it...but not the case.

any help you can provide is appreciated.
(attached file was saved as MX..orig is in MX 2004 Pro)

thanks.

oh, also....how would i load movie clips to different layers?...if i understand some things i've read here, that will help me speed up the site overall...as it is VERY slow in browser. but...maybe i'm wrong.

AS3: Load Multiple Variables Into Multiple Dynamic Text Fields
I have a php file that makes this list


Code:
Cid1=3
&Lid1=22
&Title1=amazing
&Date1=1212128413
&Ext1=jpg
&Hits1=129
&Rate1=9.5000

&Lid2=22
&Title2=cool
&Date2=1212128413
&Ext2=jpg
&Hits2=129
&Rate2=8.5000
Now, I want to load the 7 bits of data into 7 dynamic text boxes.

I have to code to load a movieclip as a button onto the stage.

When I click that button I want the data to load.

I can kind of load all the data as a string into one dynamic field but don't know how to get each variable into a different text box. Any help would be great.

Regards,

Glen Charles Rowell

This is some working code for loading one variable but I need help with the rest please.


Code:
var url:String = "http://www.secretcanttellsorry.php?cid=3&orderby=ratingD&guid=on";
var Cid1:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
Cid1.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
Cid1.load(new URLRequest(url));

function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
poptext.text = event.target.data as String;

Using Text Format For Multiple Fields In Multiple Frames
I'm trying to use Text Format to format all of my dynamic text fields in my movie. My code looks like this:


Code:
var content_fmt:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
content_fmt.color = 0x666666;
content_fmt.font = "Arial";
content_fmt.size = 12;
course_txt.setTextFormat(content_fmt);
I put it on the first frame of my movie. Unfortunately with setTextFormat, it needs to be set for every instance of text field. I don't want to have to copy and paste this code into keyframes across my whole movie. Is there a way to have it check for the field in each frame and apply the colors? Maybe with a for loop?

Text Input Fields
I am creating a sort of calculator tool for a client.

I have some input fields that I have set the character limit to four but upon testing the file some of these fields are being over-rided and giving me answers like 2.19865493554 instead of 2.19

Anybody know of a reason why????? I've tried it in Flash 4 and five. Both give me the same results. I've doubled checked the action scripts and the input fields that the answers are calculated from and everything seems to be in order.

Second question: Is there an algebraic equation to make these numbers round without limiting the character spaces?

Thanks, nauhs

And then if u where to delete some it would count back up basicly keeping track of what u have imputed to that text box ??

Help With Text Input Fields
Hi.

I am trying to modify a text input field component. Right now no matter what size in length my text input field is, the number of characters that show at a time are limited to 14 or so characters. they wont all display in the text input field from left to right. The letters are truncated and scroll.

How do I expand the number of characters that display in the textbox at a time. Note, I am an action script idiot. I can cut and paste the code but my knowledge is limited.

Any help is appreciated,

Input Text Fields
Hi.
I've posted this before but it is still not working.
Basically i have an email form which is a movie clip. I've put this emailform movieclip in another movie clip which is then in another movie clip. I think this is where my problem lies. What happens is that the text fields don't show when i test the main movie. When i place the emailform movie clip on the main timeline it shows, this is why i think my problem is due to the fact that the emailform MC is located in a MC in a MC.

Any help, script to ensure that the text fields show would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

[F8] Using Text Input For Other Fields
I've created a form that invites a user to input their name, email, phone, postal address. When they click the submit button, the data is sent to a php file and emailed to a recipient, while the form rolls over to a confirmation page, providing feedback to the user that the form was submitted successfully.

So far so good, this all works

What I would like to do is customise the confirmation page with the users inputed data. How do I have the input text of one field appear as static text in the next frame?

Input Text Fields
Hello,
I'm trying to create a simulation using Flash Professional 8. What I would like to do is have the user type information into a text field and either press a button on the keyboard like tab or enter, then if the information they inputed is correct it will move them on to the next frame. This seems like it should be pretty easy to do but I can't figure it out.
If you have any information or examples I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!!!

Input Text Fields
Here's a two parter usin AS2 in CS3-

I have two input text boxes, one for a user name and one for a password. There is also a button with an instance name of "enter_btn. There are additional frames labeled "correct" and "wrong". Here is the AS on the first frame:

stop();
enter_btn.onPress = function() {
if ((username == "John") && (password == "awesome")) {
gotoAndStop("correct");
}
else {
gotoAndStop("wrong");

};

}


That works fine except when the input text boxes have "auto kern" checked in the PI. When that is checked, it sends it to the "wrong" frame every time. Why should the auto kern affect the collecting of the variables?


Second question-

In the Flash help, it recommends not to use the "var" field in the PI to create input text field variables that will be populated by the user. It says that should only be done for previous versions of Flash players (even though it still works that way). I'm assuming that it then means to give the text field an instance name and define the variable in a frame action like:

var name:String;

If that's the case, what is the AS to tell the input text to be "name" and then test for it?

var name:String;
name_txt.text = name;
button_mc.onPress = function() {
if (name == "John") {
gotoAndStop(10);
} else {
gotoAndStop(20);
}
};


The above does not work.

Input Text Fields
Hi,

I was wondering if there was a way to tell if a user has clicked in an input text field. I want to have different movieclips appear depending on what text field is being typed in. I tried using a hittest, but if the user moves the mouse and continues to type in the field the movieclip disappears. If anyone knows if this is possible or has any suggestions on how to go about this it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
morggs

Input Text Fields
I think I already know the answer, but just want to make sure.

Can you alpha tween and or mask input text fields?

Aaron.

If not I hope they are going to make it possible.

Send Text From Swf To Email Client
can i send my text from different dynamic textfields to my email-client-window like outlook when i use the mailto commando. the text from the variabels should appear in the client-window so that the user just have to klick his send-button to submit his decisions in the flashform he filled out before. i know the form would be easier to do with asp, cgi or php but i need a solution in the way with the email-client.

thanks a lot
