email form 2

[Thoe99]

Hi, I want to encorporate a simple email form like the link below into my flash. How would I go about it, given the html information on that page? Or is there an easier method?

This tutorial above is a link to how html forms translate into Flash.

You will still need to link this form to some sort of server script to actually send the mail. The most common script used for this type of thing by hosts are formmail. If your web host is using it then can find out about it at:

There are good example on Flashkit

http://www.flashkit.com/search.php?...&orderby=Rating&andor=or&page=1&submit=Submit

There some forms that use your defalt mailer on your pc and there are some that use FormMail.pl or cgi. I like
FormMail better format controll. You might want to check
on your servers cgi-bin to see if you all ready have it.
if not then you can goto

and download it. You need make sure you have permissions to
be able to run PL or CGI scripts.
