Hey, my form mail is not working…I made the script executable and I have it in CHMOD Mode…
Now, on my button that I have the load variables action on , do I have to list what variables I want loaded with the form? Or will Flash know to load only the variables in the movie clip that my mailform is in?
In any case, can someone describe what I need to do? Thanks…
it’s on CHMOD 755…it’s a script from matt’s Archive…do I need to list the variables on the perl script that I want to receive the values of? In other words do I need to lsit all my form mail variables like Name subject on the perl script, or when I load the variables from the form, the perl script will receive all variables and values from the timeline that the submit button is on?
Lots of people use matt’s
yes to all, but if I remeber right the script has great comments on what to do, if you are new to perl the most common probs are absolute path and sendmail and you need to know where the perl is on the server, if you know unix use the whereis.
In flash its easier than html. Just make sure you use the same variables and check the send variables box. Like I said, I have a great quick and dirty fix for that in perl if you want it.
yeah, I could use whatever you got on perl to get my form working properly. The comments in the Matt scripts don’t mention whether or not I have to list the variables of the variable of my mail form on the perl script…I followed the instructions to no avail. I’ll appreciate whatever you can offer…

Hey Flashers, I’m not getting my perl script, or cgi script to work. For some reason the server-side scripts are not catching the form or e-mailing the form to my address. Here are my codes:
SendMail.onLoad = function (success) {
if (success) {
response=“Your message was delivered”;
}else{
response =“Delivery failed; please try again or send your more conventionally”;
}
}
