I am running a test with Davdesign' 1

[TulsaJeff]

I am running a test with Davdesign's mail form in php3. The server host my client purchased does not and will not support php without upgrading to a bigger package which is also a lot more expensive.

I have this grandios idea that I will just put the php script on another server and call it from there.

it does not work. without changing any addressing in my swf file..I can move the actual form to the same server as the php script and it works great.

Everyone tells me that you can in fact have a form on one server and the php script on a completely different server and it will work fine.

I am either proving that to not be so or something else is wrong. Anyone have any clues? Ya' Gotta Love It!X-)

I put a thread in the PHP forum on this very issue, but unlike this forum, not a single sausage, not even an "I don't know but you might find the answer here...".

I too assumed that you could have the PHP on a remote server but there seems to be a minor hitch with the "echo" statement. My best suggestion is to put the form-swf on the remote server also and load the swf into a higher level in your movie, that way the swf and php are on the same server while the other 99.9% of your movie is on your full-time server.
