Problem with Contact Form AS3

[4mylgl6]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a contact form, using a small PHP script.
The PHP is working fine, the problem is in the AS.
For some reason, I can't get the ActionScript to gather the information from all the fields in the contact form.

For the last two fields, I get the error "Implicit coercion of a value of type String to an unrelated type Number."

Here's the relevant part of the code:

var email_data:String = "name=" + name_txt.text
+ "&email=" + email_txt.text
+ "&place=" + place_txt.text
+ "&day=" + day_txt.text;
+ "&time=" + time_txt.text;
+ "&message=" + message_txt.text;

All of the fields exist as input text fields on the Stage - anyone have an idea why there's a problem with the time_txt and message_txt fields?

Appreciate the help...

you have semicolons in the middle of your concatenation...

you can't do this:

var str:String = "hi";
+ "there"; 

str would be equal to "hi" since the line terminates on the semicolon. the + "there"; part would error out.

you can either jam it all together on one line with no semis:

var email_data:String = "name=" + name_txt.text + "&email=" + email_txt.text + "&place=" + place_txt.text + "&day=" + day_txt.text + "&time=" + time_txt.text + "&message=" + message_txt.text; 

or concatenate it on different lines...

var email_data:String = "name=" + name_txt.text;
email_data += "&email=" + email_txt.text;
email_data += "&place=" + place_txt.text;
email_data += "&day=" + day_txt.text;
email_data += "&time=" + time_txt.text;
email_data += "&message=" + message_txt.text;

That worked!

Thanks a lot!
