Send Real Fax/send Pdf In Mail, Using Flash
Hi, I am a moderate flash designer and mostly make animations. I don't work with actionscript too much so I really need your guys' help. I need 2 things.

First: I am making an internet fax demo where I want someone to enter their email in a simple text box, click send, and it will email a pdf document to the email address (a sample fax).

Second: In the same demo, there will be another text box, where a user would enter a fax number, hit send, and it will fax them the pdf (or the stuff in the pdf in any other format) to their fax machine.

is this doable using flash? I don't even mind if i have to use a php or a xml file. but in that case, i also want to know what to write in the actionscript to call those files.

I would really appreciate if someone could please help me out with this. I had been searching all night, i found some actionscripts but have no clue what they mean.

Help Trying To Send E-mail From Flash Using With CGI
What's wrong with this script?

on (release) {
if (txtname ne "" and txtcompany ne "" and txtproject ne "" and txtemail ne "" and txtdescription ne "") {
loadVariables (txtname and txtcompany and txtproject and txtemail and txtdescription, "http://www.theserver.com/cgi-bin/cgiemail/email.txt", "POST");
}
}

I can't seem to figure this out. Any help would be VERY cool.

Can Flash Send An E-mail?
I'm building a site that includes a feedback form and a very simple order form (with no confidential information - security is not a concern). I know I can build various things to accept user input, such as checkboxes, radios, lists, blank boxes, etc. That's all good.

Once I have all that info on entered into a page, can I get Flash to email the the data to a specific address?

Thanks,
Frank

How Do I Use A Flash Movie To Send E Mail
I have found a flash movie to send emails and another movie which sends an email to a friend "refer a friend"

I have tried following the instructions in the action script but what ever i do in the get url box it does not work.

I have a hotmail address i have tried but this only loads the sign in page rather then sending an email.

I read i should enter my address with a / before the @
cdromard/@hotmail.com this only crashes the movie when i try it.
But i guess this is not a http address and this is what the get url box uses. I also heard about PHP but do not really understand.

Can i send emails with a flash movie to a hotmail account?
Could you post some actionscript to copy and paste? with detail of where and how to put in my hotmail address.
Thank you,
Christopher.

Problem To Send A Flash Exe To A Mail
I have develloped a flash application i can send to many people through emailing.
So that everyone can easily open it, without any problem, i have published the flash application under the windows .exe form.
The problem I have, is that, when i send it by email, the .exe file is often suppressed by antiviruses as it is seen as one.
Do you have an idea to help me send this so it isn't suppressed ?
Please send me an answer if you can on my email ( coutel@arbaweb.fr ) directly as i work like a dog and don't always have the time to check forums, it is urgent.

Send An E-mail From A Flash Website
Hi.

Say I have a flash website. Is it possible to create a form a user can fill and then send that info as an e-mail to the webmaster's e-mail account? Can I do this using only flash? Does the website domain require anything specific, like database/php support? If I require anything besides Flash, can you give me any hints on how to achieve this?

Thank you.

Send Mail With Flash And PHP Problem
I am currently in the process of pulling out my hair. I have no idea why this code does not work.
I create loadVars to send to a PHP script that in turn sends an email to me with the variable values. The PHP works because when i go to the url that it points to, it sends me a blank email, so i think the actionscript is the problem since i get NO emails when i try to use the contact form.

THanks

Here is the code:


Code:
on (release) {
if (_parent.form.name eq "") {
_parent.form.errors = "You forgot to fill in your name!";
} else if (_parent.form.company eq "") {
_parent.form.errors = "You forgot to fill in your company name!";
} else if (_parent.form.email eq "") {
_parent.form.errors = "You forgot to fill in your e-mail address!";
} else if (_parent.form.phone eq "") {
_parent.form.errors = "You forgot to fill in your phone number!";
} else {

mail_vars = new LoadVars();
mail_vars.name = _parent.form.name;
mail_vars.company = _parent.form.company;
mail_vars.email = _parent.form.phone;
mail_vars.comments = _parent.form.comments;

mail_vars.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
_parent.form.errors = "Sent! Thank You!";
// done with contact form..make this point somewhere
} else {
_parent.form.errors = "error with contact form";
}
};

mail_vars.sendAndLoad("http://www.testsite.com/contact.php", mail_vars, "POST");
}
}
and the php

PHP Code:



    $name= $_POST['name'];    $company= $_POST['company'];    $email= $_POST['email'];    $phone= $_POST['phone'];    $comments= $_POST['comments'];        echo $name;        $message = '
'.$name .'
'. $company .'
'. $email .'
' .$phone. '
---------------------
'. $comments .'
';    mail("email@email.com", "POSSIBLE CLIENT!", $message,  "From: email@{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}");    echo "Sent!";

Send Mail From Flash But Selecting Recipient
Hi I am fairly new to action script, and flash.
so please take it easy on me. :-) I have been googling this non stop, trying to create a contact form in flash that will email the form data via php.
I have come across tutorials like this - http://www.kirupa.com/developer/acti..._php_email.htm
but what I am trying to accomplish is having a drop down menu on the form, such as sales, info, support, etc.
and what ever the end user selects in that drop down box. It will send the email to the selected recipient.
like if someone selects sales, it will email to sales@domain.com or whatever the corrosponding address is. Can someone point me in the right direction or point out a tuturial on this that is out there?
all I can find is just one email address contact form tutorials.
Thank You
Dave

Launch Sites And Send E-mail With Flash Project
I used often flash to produce CD presentations and interfaces.
With the the event of player 6 and above the getURL dosen't work anymore in EXE projector files.

Do i have to buy another Third part program to can make a simple link to work on a player?

Can I Send An Swf Within A Mail?
Hi there,
I don't think there's much more to write after you've read the subject of this post
Anyhow, what I want to do is add a banner in my mail messages (I use MO6) with some little animation and a direct link to my homepage. Can I do this?
If yes please tell me how.
I wonder if it has something to do with html, if so keep in mind that my knowledge on the matter (html) is quite close to zero.

Thanks

Mail Does Not Send
Hello,

I'm using MX.
I send a form from a flash page with the following code:

on (release) {
subject = "contact formulier";
recipient = "testingscripts@hotmail.com";
loadVariablesNum("bedankt.php", 0, "POST");
gotoAndPlay(46);
}

It does not send the e-mail (should do it in bedankt.php).
When I send the same variables from a HTML form, it DOES!!

Am I forgetting something?
In HTML you need to create a form tag where you have to place the fields in, this is not something you have to do in Flash??

tnx in advance.
