Ok i have been looking around all day for some info on creating an autoemailer in flash. I have a form with products and checkboxes and when the submit button is pressed i need it to send an e-mail to a specific e-mail address containing the product numbers and customers e-mail address. I will be able to manage the above in flash but i dont know the best way to send this information out as an e-mail. All i have found tutorials wise is the Mailto feature which wont work for this or more complex PHP style ones. I dont really wanna have to learn Mysql or xml or php just to make a form which sends e-mails out , is there ANY way of doing this without hugely complex php scripts ?? ---

I’d do it with the help of the Mailer tut on this site ave [www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash\_php\_email.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/actionscript/flash_php_email.htm). It’s really very straight forward & you don’t get involved in MySQL or XML unless you are linking up with a database. The PHP involved is at a very simple level & the tut explains the whole process very well. If you are linking up with a database well that’s a different story…
