If you receive something, then the server could send emails. If you're using PHP 4.1 or above, fix this: http://www.flash-db.com/Board/index.php?board=19;action=display;threadid=3017

Well i show with phpinfo.php
that my server has phpv4.3.2 so i followed the instructions of my musicman referred to nubian
and now i recieve no email at all!!!!!!!
I show that the problem is in the php code because i had loaded from flash another php file that sends a test email and it worked!!!
Here is my code:

<?
// data coming in from the movie
$Email = $_POST[Email];
$FirstName = $_POST[FirstName];
$Company = $_POST[Company];
$ToComments = $_POST[ToComments];
$HearAbout = $_POST[HearAbout];

$ToEmail = "ght@fg.fgf";
$ToName = "fadada";
$ToSubject = "dadada";

// next line is a recommended change if your "comments" field is multiline
$ToComments = str_replace("\r", "\n", $ToComments);

$EmailBody = "Sent By: $FirstName\nSenders Email: $Email\nSenders Company: $Company\n\nMessage Sent:\n$ToComments\n\nSender Heard About Site From: $HearAbout\n";
$EmailFooter="\nThis message was sent by: $FirstName from $REMOTE_ADDR If you feel that you recieved this e-mail by accident please contact us at www.dadadd.com";
$Message = $EmailBody.$EmailFooter;
mail($ToEmail,$ToSubject, $Message, "From: ".$FirstName." <".$Email.">");
Print "&_root.Mail.Status=Complete - Your mail has been sent&";
(i use Status and not EmailStatus)
?>

Your PHP looks fine. Are you sure you're calling the script from your movie? Try this: replace your loadVariables() call (where you call the PHP script) with

getURL("phpscript.php", "_new", "POST")

It will open your PHP script in a new window, sending all possible error messages

I did it and i show that message:

Parse error: parse error in /disk1/hosting/docs/kollaps/thanos/snowMailPHP.php on line 2

does my code has error in line 2?
thank you

[Jorge Solis]

Sure there's an error, but I can't see in the code you posted. You can use

$_POST['Email'] (single apostrophe) instead of $_POST[Email]; but usually both works fine

Jorge

I have corrected everything and now the code is fine!!
But there is a problem
My site is hosted on geocities and the phps to another server
But when i put the guestbook(that is on the other server with phps) inside my main flash page i saw that the script wasn't loaded!!!!
What i have to do now in order not to remove my whole site from geocities to the other server???

[Jorge Solis]

?

Just delete your geocities account and upload your files to the new server

[Musicman]

Hi,

you can probably use one of those two:
a) ut index.html on geocities and your main movie on other server
b) put index.html and main movie on geocities and load contact movie from other server into main movie

Musicman

[thanos]

Dear musicman,
i have the main movie and when i push the guestbook button i "loadMovie" from the other server that are both guestbook.swf and phps but it doesn't work
So temporalily i "getURL" the guestbook.html from the other server in order to work!!!
so i dont know what else to do except of removing  part of my site to the other server
Do you know if it could work using javascript in order to open a pop-up window?
I do it and it doesn't work.I think that my code isn't right.
Can you please right the code of making a pop up window using a flash button??
Thank you
thanos    

[Musicman]

Hi,

two potential problems: if the guestbook movie plays fine by itself, it may not work when loaded into another movie.
Also, it is usually necesary to put absolute url into the loaded movie

OK THANK YOU!!!
Also i would like to tell me,if of course you can, how can i send an automate response to the senderer of the message in the guestbook (for rexample  hi.......... i will reply you as soon as possible) with php
After
mail($ToEmail,$ToSubject, $Message, "From: ".$FirstName." <".$Email.">");
i put:
mail($Email, $ToSubject, "l will reply you soon.Thank you");
BUT IT DOESN'T WORK COMPLETELY
(I send a letter to me with the same ToEmail and Email and it comes only one letter!!!)
thank you!
