Hi guys,

I realize this has been discussed many times before, but it still doesnt work after all the searching and suggestions i learned.

Heres my question:

I have a movieclip called Inquire.fla.

In this movieclip i have a form and a button.

The form is made up of 4 text fields… name, email, phone, and message. Each has been given variable names. I converted the 4 text fields to a movieclip, and gave it the instance name “form”.

I back out to the main scene, click on the form movie clip and give it the actionscript:

onClipEvent(data){  
\_root.nextFrame();  
}

I also have a button that is on the main scene. It has been given the actionscript:

on(release) {  
form.loadVariables(“email.php”, “POST”);  
}

I then created email.php using dreamweaver with the following code:

\<?php  
$sendTo = “[adamjcormier@hotmail.com](mailto:adamjcormier@hotmail.com)”;  
$subject = “My Flash site reply”;

$headers = "From: " . $\_POST[“name”];  
$headers .= “\<” . $\_POST[“email”] . "\>  
";  
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $\_POST[“email”] . "  
";  
$headers .= "Return-Path: " . $\_POST[“email”];  
$headers .= “Phone:” . $\_POST[“phone”];  
$message = $\_POST[“message”];  
mail($sendTo, $subject, $message, $headers);  
?\>

The movie Inquire.swf is an external movieclip that is loaded into my main Index.swf. I upload the Inquire.swf, Inquire.html and email.php onto the [1and1.com](http://1and1.com) server. When i view my webpage and fill it out… absolutely nothing happens.

Could someone PLEASE help me??

Thank you SOOOO much!
