I'm so close. Everything works but the text fields. They don't return user info. This is what I have so far:

ActionScript Code:

on (rollOver) {

          gotoAndPlay(2);

}

on (rollOut) {

          gotoAndPlay(10);

}

on (release)
{
    rsvp_lv = new LoadVars();
    rsvp_lv.content3 = "t3";
    rsvp_lv.content2 = "t2";
    rsvp_lv.content1 = "t1";
    rsvp_lv.recipient = "[email protected]";
    rsvp_lv.subject = "requested information";
    rsvp_lv.redirect = "http://www.nikmarkmedia.com/thank-you.html";
rsvp_lv.send("http://nikmarkmedia.com/cgi-sys/FormMail.cgi", "_blank", "POST");
}

is having the content variables hardcoded as strings a test?

ActionScript Code:

rsvp_lv.content3 = "t3";
rsvp_lv.content2 = "t2";
rsvp_lv.content1 = "t1";

This would return content3 as t3, content2 as t2, content1 as t1. if you are trying to grab the values of input boxes with the instance names of t3 - t1 then do this and make sure the target to the t3- t1 is correct:

ActionScript Code:

rsvp_lv.content3 = t3;
rsvp_lv.content2 = t2;
rsvp_lv.content1 = t1;

I'm still getting nothing. Any ideas? Thanks for the help

Gibberish · 03-28-2005, 06:29 PM

are you just copyin and pasting my code or are you trying to point to the right target?

Copying and pasting will result in nothing because I doubt the t3-t1 values reside in your button. You need to point them to the mc where the input values reside.

here is an example if your input fields were in a mc instance named 'myForm' on the root timeline.

ActionScript Code:

rsvp_lv.content3 = _root.myForm.t3;
rsvp_lv.content2 = _root.myForm.t2;
rsvp_lv.content1 = _root.myForm.t1;

If you still can't get it to work post your fla.

I'm sorry I'm real new (as if you couldn't tell) How do i post my fla?

rippazinc · 03-28-2005, 07:29 PM

first go advanced reply mode then click "manage attachments"

make sure ur posting a ZIP with your FLA ...if you dont know how 2 zip then go to www.winzip.com or if you have winxp then right click on your file and click "send to compressed folder" and then just upload your file

a quick question: what will this form accomplish? i'm trying to do an email form too but i had to use PHP which doesnt wokr good on my server....please tell me what this script is up to

thanks

rippazinc · 03-28-2005, 07:31 PM

after looking back ay ur code i think ur using CGI...please send me ur CGI script to take a quick look at please? also, what program did u use to write it?

Gibberish · 03-28-2005, 08:07 PM

lets do one thing at a time.

Post a sample fla (meaning take out any graphics that arent associated as to lower file size) with the form script and movies.

Or you can test movie in flash(ctrl + enter), the hit ctrl+L and copy/paste the output to here.

ok try this out:

ActionScript Code:

on (release)
{
rsvp_lv = new LoadVars();
rsvp_lv.content3 = _level0.main.instance155.t3_2;
rsvp_lv.content2 = _level0.main.instance155.t2_2;
rsvp_lv.content1 = _level0.main.instance155.t1_2;
rsvp_lv.recipient = "[email protected]";
rsvp_lv.subject = "requested information";
rsvp_lv.redirect = "http://www.nikmarkmedia.com/thank-you.html";
rsvp_lv.send("http://nikmarkmedia.com/cgi-sys/FormMail.cgi", "_blank", "POST");
}

also please try to start using the code tags to wrap your code. puch the lil flash icon near the new message text box to have it create the code for you and then just put your code inbetween the tags.
