[CS3] AS2 Flash email form help please...

[76kid]

Hi Guys

Ive made this email form from kirupa which works great...

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/acti..._php_email.htm

I want to add a phone number variable/field to it, so when the email comes thru to me I have their phone number too.

Im sure its pretty simple and ive tried implementing it myself but cannot get it to work now.

Please help.

Thanks

Ben

Hello,

Do u want to send the phone numbers from the flash to mail?

If s

then to get the number say "phone" - the variable in which u are stored the phone number value in php use

$phone = $_POST["phone"];

then concatenate the phone variable after the message body

like

$message = $_POST["message"].$phone;

then as given in the kirupa u can follow.

All the best.

Hi Nalini

Thanks for your response. I am just looking at this now, I have labelled the variable in the flash to 'phone' and have the following in my php, is that right?

<?php

$sendTo = "email address goes here";
$subject = "Subject line goes here";

$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . " " . $_POST["email"] ." \r\n";

$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];

$message = $_POST["message"].$phone;
$phone = $_POST["phone"];

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>

Please come back to me.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

<?php

$sendTo = "email address goes here";
$subject = "Subject line goes here";

$headers = "From: " . $_POST["firstName"] ." ". $_POST["lastname"] . " " . $_POST["email"] ." \r\n";

$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["email"];

$phone = $_POST["phone"];
$message = $_POST["message"].$phone;

mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);

?>

I checked this... note that the phone variable should be set before it is concatenated..

THanks,

[Nalini_v]

Also to ensure mail has been sent to the receipient check using if

if (mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers)) {
  echo("<p>Message successfully sent!</p>");
 } else {
  echo("<p>Message delivery failed...</p>");
 } 

Hope this will help u.
