Hiya,

I have created a contact page on my website www.styledwebdesign.co.uk, how do I get it to work? I think I need a php page?

 

Thanks in advance

Its all built in flash i see - looks good.

 

I think your form will need to post to a php script which will handle the form request, that you upload to your server.

This can be tricky if you have no experience with php, but there are some simple form mail scripts available for download, you just need to search around a bit. The form will basically take the info from the inputs and whack it in an email for you.

 

The problem with doing it this way is that you need to configure your contact form to the script unless you can write it yourself or get someone else to do it!

Thanks for your reply, think I'll get someone to write out the PHP script for me I have no experiance in this what so ever.... all that money I paid for a web design course and look can't even get a contact form to work lol... thanks again

Ok I've been a little lazy and downloaded a flash contact form and PHP file from FLASHMO, how do I add this to my exsiting flash website? www.styledwebdesign.co.uk

Not sure about the flash side of things but I would imagine you link your submit button in flash to your php file.

 

was there no tut with the downloaded files.

basically the ids in the php script need to correspond with those on the input fields. Not sure how this is approached in flash, im no expert in that department.

Then as pat said, the form needs to post to the script on submit.

 

Im sure there are tutorials online for this kind of thing, put a sherlock holmes hat on (pipe optional for health reasons) and dig around for a bit.

 

sorry i cant be more help!
