Welcome to the forums!

Did you upload the php file to your server as well?

Putting it All Together
All that remains now is uploading your published swf (with accompanying html) and PHP file to your server. Be sure you keep the PHP file in the same directory as your swf and html or your script may not be found when called from Flash. If you don't want it to be in that same directory, be sure you correctly reference the location of the PHP file in the loadVariables command used in Flash

You do have php support on your host?

yeah i have the same problem ...i uploaded my version first, that didn't work. then i uploaded senocular's files- those didn't work either. what's all my host needs to have ?

i know they have smtp and php. anything else they need to have for me to be able to send emails with php?

No normally not. Wouldn't know what your prob is :(.

MM, I think jubs made a mistake, the first parameter should be the adressed, so change fromEmail to toEmail:


mail($toEmail, $Subject, $nMessage."\nFrom: ".$fromName."<".$fromEmail.">");

If that's not it...
Most of the server force you to use getvars to extract data out of an URL, like add (in the php-file)


$fromEmail = $HTTP_GET_VARS["fromEmail"];
$nMessage = $HTTP_GET_VARS["nMessage"];
$fromName = $HTTP_GET_VARS["fromName"];
$fromEmail = $HTTP_GET_VARS["fromEmail"];

[nik]

this is what my send.php looks like:



$phpto=$HTTP_POST_VARS['to'];
$phpfrom=$HTTP_POST_VARS['from'];
$phpsubject=$HTTP_POST_VARS['subject'];
$phpmessage=$HTTP_POST_VARS['message'];
$phpheaders = "From: ".$phpfrom."\n";
mail($phpto, $phpsubject, $phpmessage, $phpheaders);


echo "&result=good";


would that somehow make it different from what seticus said?

is there an actual way to check if the mail function did its thing instead of my dumb echo "&result"?

[Seticus]

how are you calling the file, from flash? What is the code you use...

[nik]

just a very simple LoadVars:

frame:


info=new LoadVars();
info.onLoad=function(success){
if(success){
if(this.result=="good"){
message.text="Your Email has been sent.";
}else{
message.text="Hasn't";
}
}else{
message.text="Server cannot be reached at this time. Please try again later.";
}
}


button that sends it:


on(release){
info.to=to.text;
info.from=from.text;
info.subject=subject.text;
info.message=message.text;
info.sendAndLoad("send.php?rnd="+random(999),info);
}


ps: thanks seticus

[Seticus]

try:info.sendAndLoad("send.php?rnd="+random(999),info,"POST");
