Hey there people,

I was wondering if anyone out there could help me with this problem I’m having. I can’t seem to get the form in my flash file to communicate with my php script. the flash form works because I’ve continually tested it, but I never recieve any of my test e-mails. I have attached the files here. If you could please take a look at them and tell me what I’m doing wrong. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Happy Flashing,

Kelly

hey… here’s my own version of your contact4.fla and also my version of form.php

added a msg when php cannot send the email…

haven’t tested the .fla and .php files i have attached here (i don’t have any host with php installed), but it should work… if any problems, post a reply or something 🙂

the new form.php looks like this:

```php

<?
   $to = "kellynunes@lvcm.com";
   
/*
   $msg = "$name

";
   $msg .= "$message

";
*/

if($name=="" || $email=="" || $subject="" || $msg=="")
  {
     echo 'error';
     exit();
  }
if(@mail($to, $subject, $msg, "From: My web site
Reply-To: $email
"))
  echo 'sent=\"ok\"';
else echo 'sent=no';
?>

```

based on the variable ‘sent’, flash interprets wether he displays ‘email sent’ or ‘email not sent’…

ups, forgot something…

in the .php file, modify  
**else echo ‘sent=no’;** to  
**else echo ‘sent=“no”’;**

i’m going to update the .zip file, so download the file i’ve attached along this post 🙂
