Hi, I’m glad you like it

I’m afraid it’s impossible to remove those images through xml. Easiest way is to replace those images with a transparent png image. So you won’t see them.

Your “contact.xml” should be like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<data>
    <form_description><![CDATA[<font face="type1" size="42">CONTACT INFO</font><br />Address:    Your Str. Your Appartment No:1 12345 YourCity<br />Phone:    +1 (212) 123 45 67<br />Fax:        +1 (212) 123 45 69<br />E-Mail:    <a href="mailto:address@yourdomain.com">address@yourdomain.com</a><br /><br /><font face="type1" size="42">CONTACT FORM</font><br />Contact form can contain unlimited amount of fields that you choose in 7 different types. These types are hidden field, single-line textfield, multi-line textfield, e-mail field, dropdown list, checkbox and radio button.]]></form_description>
    <form 
        type="form" 
        fSend="SEND" 
        fClean="CLEAN" 
        fSendAddress="contact_form.php" 
        fSendingMessage="Sending. Please wait." 
        fRequiredMessage="fill in this field" 
        fErrorMessage="An error occured. Please try again." 
        fCompleteMessage="Thank you...">
        <formElement                                     fName="hidden_field"    fType="hidden"                            fValue="Field Value" />
        <formElement title="NAME"                         fName="name"             fType="string"         fRequired="true"  />
        <formElement title="E-MAIL"                     fName="email"             fType="email"         fRequired="true" />
        <formElement title="TITLE"                        fName="title"             fType="string"         fRequired="false" />
        <formElement title="MESSAGE"                     fName="message"         fType="multiline"     fRequired="true"    fLineCount="2" />
        <formElement title=""                             fName="subscribe"        fType="checkbox"     fRequired="false" >
            <checkboxItem title="Subscribe to e-mail list." fSelected="true" />
        </formElement>
    </form>
</data>

And your “contact_form.php” file should be like this:

<?
/* VARIABLES */
$recipients             = "you@yourdomain.com";      // This is an e-mail address which the e-mail will be sent to.
$sender                 = "any@yourdomain.com";        // This is a valid e-mail address which must be added to mail server.
$subject                 = "Website Mail";

/* MAIL BODY. INSERT A LINE FOR EVERY VARIABLE THAT THE FORM WILL SEND TO PHP. THE VALUE IN _POST FUNCTION MUST BE THE SAME WITH THE NAME THAT YOU WROTE IN XML AS "fName" ATTRIBUTE */
$mailmsg = "";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "NAME: " . $_POST["name"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "E-MAIL: " . $_POST["email"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "TITLE: " . $_POST["title"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "MESSAGE: " . $_POST["message"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "SUBSCRIBE: " . $_POST["subscribe"] . "<br />";

if(mail($recipients, $subject, $mailmsg,"From: Website<$sender>\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/html;\n"))
{
    echo "error=0";
}
else
{
    echo "error=1";
}
?>

hi, this isnt allowing the senders name and email to show up in the email header. it wont allow me to reply back to the senders email address.

LynCh Author

There is “From: Website<$sender>” inside the codes as you can see. It means, when you reply the email, reply will be send to the sender’s email address. I’m not a php developer but it’s the only way as I know.

Can you help me with this string?

$sender = “any@yourdomain.com”; // This is a valid e-mail address which must be added to mail server.

do i fill in “any@yourdomain.com”?

LynCh Author

Aha, I understand now

“contact_form.php” file should be like this:

<?
/* VARIABLES */
$recipients             = "you@yourdomain.com";      // This is an e-mail address which the e-mail will be sent to.

$sender                 = $_POST["email"];
$subject                 = "Website Mail";

$mailmsg = "";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "NAME: " . $_POST["name"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "TITLE: " . $_POST["title"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "MESSAGE: " . $_POST["message"] . "<br />";
$mailmsg = $mailmsg . "SUBSCRIBE: " . $_POST["subscribe"] . "<br />";

if(mail($recipients, $subject, $mailmsg,"From: Website<$sender>\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/html;\n"))
{
    echo "error=0";
}
else
{
    echo "error=1";
}
?>

I changed this line:

$sender                 = $_POST["email"];

Hello i cannot change the background color from black to white in the main fla. Is it possible?? Where can i change the background color??

You need to open “MainLoader.fla” wtih Flash and change it’s background color to do this.

chotito Purchased

Yes i already did this, but it still does not work… (Im using flash cs4 for mac)

chotito Purchased

I tried it also in the main but it also does not work. The thing is it lets me change it in both, but then when you publish it does not work… Please can you help me on this? Or send me the swf with white background… Thank you

LynCh Author

I’m sorry, I just found where it is.

Open “MainLoader.as” from “com” folder. There is a color code like “0×111111” in 38th line. You need to change that color code as “0xFFFFFF” to make background white.

addChild(new Rect(Capabilities.screenResolutionX, Capabilities.screenResolutionY, 0x111111));

Than re-publish “MainLoader.fla” file.

Reservation and contact form are not working. This week we tried the forms the first time but they are not working. At the frontend i get the information that the message was sent succesfully, but i got no mail. I alos looked into the spam folder – nothing arrived.

My reservation_form.php (i replaced the original domain with xxxx.xx): <? /* VARIABLES / $recipients = “info@xxxx.xx”; // This is an e-mail address which the e-mail will be sent to. $sender = “info@xxxx.xx”; // This is a valid e-mail address which must be added to mail server. $subject = “RESERVIERUNGSANFRAGE von der Webseite”;

/ MAIL BODY . INSERT A LINE FOR EVERY VARIABLE THAT THE FORM WILL SEND TO PHP . THE VALUE IN _POST FUNCTION MUST BE THE SAME WITH THE NAME THAT YOU WROTE IN XML AS “fName” ATTRIBUTE */ $mailmsg = ””; $mailmsg = $mailmsg . “NAME: ” . $_POST[“name”] . “
”; $mailmsg = $mailmsg . “TELEFON: ” . $_POST[“phone”] . “
”; $mailmsg = $mailmsg . “DATUM: ” . $_POST[“date”] . “
”; $mailmsg = $mailmsg . “PERSONENANZAHL: ” . $_POST[“party”] . “
”; $mailmsg = $mailmsg . “NACHRICHT: ” . $_POST[“message”] . “

if(mail($recipients, $subject, $mailmsg,”VON: WEBSEITE <$sender>\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/html;\n”)) { echo “error=0”; } else { echo “error=1”; } ?>
