[SOLVED] PHP script for contact form in flash

[Bendeguz]

Hello all

I have bought a template and i cannot get the php working. I mean i am not much for php but i think the file should be more than just what it says in the php file for the contact form. I mean this would be a simple contact form that just sends the email info to lets say johnny@yahoo.com, it does not have to send a thank you mail to the sender.

THanks and any help would be appreciated. I tryed to contact the place i purchased the template from but i have not received anything from them in 4 days. Now the code below is for the MailPHP.php

 

_root.Status=success

this is all it says in the MailPHP.php i think it should be more.

 

the variables in flash are:

txtName=_namex

txtMail=_emailx

txtPhone=_phonex

txtMessage=_commx

 

Now in the actionscript in flash i have this code:

 

function validateEmail(strEmail)
{
    return (strEmail.indexOf("@") < 2 || strEmail.lastIndexOf(".") <= strEmail.indexOf("@") + 2 || strEmail.lastIndexOf(".") > strEmail.length - 3 || strEmail.length < 8 ? (false) : (true));
} // End of the function
function clearForm()
{
    new mx.transitions.Tween(txtName, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 0, 5.000000E-001, true);
    new mx.transitions.Tween(txtMail, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 0, 5.000000E-001, true);
    new mx.transitions.Tween(txtPhone, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 0, 5.000000E-001, true);
    var _loc1 = new mx.transitions.Tween(txtMessage, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 0, 5.000000E-001, true);
    _loc1.onMotionFinished = function ()
    {
        txtMessage.text = "Message";
        txtName.text = "Name";
        txtMail.text = "Email";
        txtPhone.text = "Phone";
        new mx.transitions.Tween(txtName, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 100, 5.000000E-001, true);
        new mx.transitions.Tween(txtMail, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 100, 5.000000E-001, true);
        new mx.transitions.Tween(txtPhone, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 100, 5.000000E-001, true);
        new mx.transitions.Tween(txtMessage, "_alpha", mx.transitions.easing.Regular.easeOut, txtMail._alpha, 100, 5.000000E-001, true);
    };
} // End of the function
stop ();
mcolorx = _root.mcolorx;

Could anyone explain how to make a php script for this email form?

I am very new to php and don't really understand it yet.

I am willing to learn and write the code if some one can explane

how this exactly corespondes with the action script in flash.

I would like to have my site up and running but my email is not

working. Is there anyway one of you guys could help me.

I have been trying to get a hold of the people that sold me the

template but sofar it's been 4 days and I have not Heard anything

from them. All i need is that the form sends me the email that's it

i guess it would be a simple email form. No return mail is required to

the sender and i would be using an existing email address not through

a server but just a regular email like geroge@yahoo.com.

 

Thanks Guys

Your flash swf is going to send the data to a file called MailPHP.php via post. Your data will show up within $_POST['txtName'], $_POST['txtMail'], $_POST['txtPhone'] and $_POST['txtMessage'].

 

You can then use the mail function to send an email.

[laPistola]

php mail function is

 

mail($to,$subject,$message,$from);

 

no idea how to make it work with your actionscript but you would need to use the $_REQUEST['var'] feature as normal

 

this is an example of my PHP script that works with my flash contact form

 

<?php

// read the variables form the flash post
$name = $_REQUEST["name"];
$message = $_REQUEST["message"];
$tele = $_REQUEST["tele"];
$email = $_REQUEST["email"];


mail("sales@yourDomain.co.uk", "Enquiry From website", "Name: $name\nTelephone: $tele\nEmail: $email\n$message", "From: $email");
?>

Thanks guys for replying.

the problem is that i really have no clue how php works. I expected just to change the email address in the php and it would work but when i opened it up it only had one line that was it _root.Status=success as i said i purchased the template but i cannot get a hold of the people that sold me the template it's been 4 days and no one got back to me. This is why i came here because most people know how php works i have not got a clue.

it was supposed to be an easy set up because it's an xml flash template and i have done all the pictures and all the text but when i was going to add my email to the php i discovered that there was just that one line in there. This is why i am asking you php gurus maybe you can help me out.

Thanks

_namex

_emailx

_phonex

_commx

 

Can someone point it out where to add the variables into the php script i found. Maybe it will work.

 

Thanks

Hi,

Try this if you find it helpfull

 

AS button script

 

on(release)

{

var fname = _root.main_mc.form_mc.fname;

var sname = _root.main_mc.form_mc.sname;

var phone = _root.main_mc.form_mc.phone;

var mobile = _root.main_mc.form_mc.mobile;

var email = _root.main_mc.form_mc.email;

var errmsg = _root.main_mc.form_mc.errmsg;

errmsg.text = "";

if (fname.text == "")

{

errmsg.text = "Please Enter First Name";

}

else

if (sname.text == "")

{

errmsg.text = "Please Enter Surname";

}

else

if (phone.text == "" && mobile.text == "")

{

errmsg.text = "Please Enter Telephone or Mobile";

}

else

{

var result_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();

result_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean)

{

 

    if (success) {

        errmsg.text = "Form Submitted Successfully";

    } else {

        errmsg.text = "Please Enter valid email";

    }

}

 

var tempObj:LoadVars = new LoadVars ();

tempObj.fname = fname.text;

tempObj.sname = sname.text;

tempObj.phone = phone.text;

tempObj.mobile = mobile.text;

tempObj.email = email.text;

//tempObj.send("http://locashot/mail.php", "_blank", "POST");

tempObj.sendAndLoad("mail.php", result_lv, "POST");

                }

}

 

 

 

 

PHP mail.php script

 

First Name : '.trim($_REQUEST['fname']).'<br>

Surname : '.trim($_REQUEST['sname']).'<br>

Telephone : '.trim($_REQUEST['phone']).'<br>

Mobile : '.trim($_REQUEST['mobile']).'<br>

Hello

Would anyone be able to explane where to add my variables into the php script i added.

I am a newbie to php and i am not sure what i am doing.

All help would be appreciated,

Hello

Is there any way some one could point me in the right direction?

I still have no feedback from the people i bougth the template from.

 

Thanks

Bendeguz

 

[trq]

No one is going to write the script for you. If you really have no idea Id suggest either quickly learning php (There's a good free book in my signature, Hudzilla) or posting your request in the freelance board and maybe someone will help you out.

[Bendeguz]

Thanks Thorpe

I am not asking anyone to write the script for me, I provided the php script that i found.

All i am asking is for some one to point me in the right direction where i would have to

change the variables in the php to make it work with the flash action script.

I thought that this forum is for helping but by the looks of it no one is willing to

help. For someone that knows php it would probably take less than 5 minutes to

answer. Again i am not asking anyone to write the script just help me point out

where and what i would have to change to make the script work with the flash.

That would be it.

Thanks

This assumes alot. Mainly that people actually know how to use flash...this is a PHP site not a flash site. I have never used flash with PHP, I actually stopped using flash after Flash 4. That was like in 2000. So for me, this problem is hard for me to solve without doing a ton of research.

 

I would look into a flash/php help forum somewhere, as that would probably have people who integrate php and flash together. There is no doubt the answer could take 5 minutes from someone who knows how to work with FLASH/PHP, for me it would take about an hour at least, which of course you could take that hour and learn the integration of PHP/FLASH and how to integrate it with your code. As all I would be doing to solve this for you is research using google, why should I do that when you are perfectly capable of that?

I pointed you in the right direction about 10 replies ago, what more do you want besides someone to do it for you?

[Bendeguz]

Thanks Guys

I did try to research but there is limited information that i can find.

I am not a flash guy or a php guru. All i did is purchase a template

and I did not get the full php script with the template.

I am just a business owner that is trying to fix it so i can have my

page up and running. The people i bought the template off of seem to

ignore my emails because it's been 6-7 days and i did not get ant replies

back from them. This is why i came here to php freaks because i thought

that someone would be able to help me with this problem.

The reason why i bought this template is because it was supposed to be

easy to edit. It came with all the instructions how and what to edit

in the php but when i opened the php there was only one line in it.

I have been searching on google for days and i did not find any info

that was helpful to me. All i am asking for is for some one to point

out where i have to add the variables from the flash into the php script

that i posted in one of the replies. I just don't know what and where to change

in the php to make it work. You would not even have to write me any script

just let me know where i should make the changes in the php so it would work

with the variables in the action script. That would be all.

Thanks

I actually found a flash/php forum.
