hello there, I am under a major, major Deadline!
I have a flash and php contact form with a validation made with all input text boxes. I need to add 1 check box to the form, but I don’t know how to pass it to through.
here is the code I have for my form now.
function checkForm():Boolean {
// this checks whether required fields have been filled in
// initialize missing flag on assumption everything OK
var missing:Boolean = false;
// clear all error text fields
error1_txt.text = error2_txt.text=error3_txt.text="";
// check each field
// if problem is encountered, display message
// and set missing flag to true
if (text_field_1.text == “”) {
error1_txt.text = “Please enter your name”;
missing = true;
}
if (text_field_2.text.indexOf("@") == -1) {
error2_txt.text = “Please enter a valid email address”;
missing = true;
}
if (text_field_5.text == “”) {
error3_txt.text = “You have not entered any comments”;
missing = true;
}
// if missing is true, return false
// otherwise return true
return missing ? false : true;
}
function sendMessage():Void {
// check whether form has been correctly filled in
var formOK:Boolean = checkForm();
// if no problems, process the form and send variables to PHP script
if (formOK) {
// Form processing goes here
message.from = text_field_1.text;
message.email = text_field_2.text;
message.comments = text_field_5.text;
message.sendAndLoad(“feedback.php?ck=”+ new Date().getTime(), messageSent);
// display message informing user that email is being sent
gotoAndStop(“sending”);
}
}
function backToForm():Void {
// send playhead back to the main form
gotoAndStop(“theForm”);
}
// create and apply text format for date
var dateDisplay:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
dateDisplay.font = “Georgia,Times,_serif”;
theDate_txt.setNewTextFormat(dateDisplay);
theDate_txt.autoSize = “left”;
// create LoadVars instance to retrieve date from PHP script
var getDate:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
// initialize LoadVars to send form data
// and receive response from the PHP script
var message:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
var messageSent:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
// load date from PHP
getDate.load(“http://localhost/phpflash/ch02/today2.php”);
// assign theDate property of the LoadVars instance to text field
getDate.onLoad = function() {
theDate_txt.text = this.theDate;
};
messageSent.onLoad = function() {
if (this.sent == “OK”) {
gotoAndStop(“acknowledge”);
} else {
gotoAndStop(“failure”);
failure_txt.text = this.reason;
}
};
gotoAndStop(“theForm”);
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
hutch
