I have a survey form that I ask a series of questions on and then the user submits the file. The name/value pairs are submitting to my cgi script fine. But the problem occurs when I try to capture the values of the radio buttons and check boxes. the name/value pairs for the radio buttons are coming back as blanks. Please help.
 
I do apologies as I am not writing to answer your question. But I am working on exactly the same thing as you. However I am behind you at this stage, I am still trying to adjust my cgi code for the fields. I downloaded formmail.pl as I was told and having trouble on not knowing which parts to change. I am told to place this code
<input type=hidden name=&quot;recipient&quot; value=&quot;email@your.host.com&quot;>
in the recipients field for example. But don’t see where exactly.
am I write to think that I should place it in the code below

# Define the configuration associative array. #
%Config = ('recipient','', 'subject','',
'email','', 'realname','',
'redirect','', 'bgcolor','',
'background','', 'link_color','',
'vlink_color','', 'text_color','',
'alink_color','', 'title','',
'sort','', 'print_config','',
'required','', 'env_report','',
'return_link_title','', 'return_link_url','',
'print_blank_fields','', 'missing_fields_redirect','');

i also have check boxes in my form, which is working in flash but still dont know how to send the values to the cgi. Looking into that, will let you know if I find anything out.

So please if you can help me with my question I would appreciate it. I do have a thread started named check box confirmation by email

Thank you
 
ghassanghellal,

Code:
<input type=hidden name=&quot;recipient&quot; value=&quot;email@your.host.com&quot;>
is for use in an HTML form, not Flash.

Instead, you must define a &quot;recipient&quot; variable in Flash, with the value of the email address you want to send the data to.

Now how are you trying to send the data to Flash?
