Howdy Everyone. Love this page and these forums, so much information. I have two questions though for something I haven’t been able to figure out.

1. Can I format a input text field to convert to phone format? i.e. 1234567890 will become (123) 456-7890?? I assume some actionscripting is invovled, but I can’t think of how to do that little tidbit.

2. I’m passing information from the flash based form to a php script. All of the text boxes translate perfectly, but I also have a lot of check boxes for options. How do I make it so if a check box is marked that is shows up in the email?

Answers or links to tutorials are greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Dan
