Re: FLASH: Flash 4 Send Mail

[Brian Clifton]

Dear Taco 


This is what I am trying to do, but not with much luck. It it is of any help, here is 

what I am doing. In the Get URL statement I have a path to my formhandler cgi/perl 

script. e.g.


On (Release)

	GET

URL(

//www [dot] omegadm [dot] co [dot] uk/scripts/formh [dot] pl?recipient=brianomegadm [dot] co [dot] uk">http://www [dot] omegadm [dot] co [dot] uk/scripts/formh [dot] pl?recipient=brianomegadm [dot] co [dot] uk

)

End ON 


The form is at:

http://www.omegadm.co.uk/testing/flash-brochure.htm


The script is called by clicking submit. Variables are sent via GET.


The script returns:

501 : malformed address: ?$version> may not follow 


The url is now:

//www [dot] omegadm [dot] co [dot] uk/scripts/formh [dot] pl?recipient=brianomegadm [dot] co [dot] uk?%2">http://www [dot] omegadm [dot] co [dot] uk/scripts/formh [dot] pl?recipient=brianomegadm [dot] co [dot] uk?%2

4version=WIN+4%2

C0%2C12%2C0&commentbox=Famous+East+Coast+beach+resort%2C+a+renowned+holida

y+destination%2E

&floridabox=X


So basically everything after

?recipient=brianomegadm [dot] co [dot] uk

 is somehow

incorrect. I haven't got any further, but if anyone can help, I would appreciate it!


Best regards, Brian
