Help with e-mailing a form

Hi, i am new to the forum and I just put up a new wesite for
my company since the other one was outdated. I look around the
forum to see what previous post could help me but no such luck. I
am using Dreamweaver 8 and I need help with emailing a form.
Here is the code of the form page and the script
Can someone help me?

The form needs to submit to a page that will have the email
processing code
on it. What you put there will depend on how you are sending
the mail ..
i.e. what server components are available to you on the
server such as JMail
or CFMail or PHPMail or ASPEMail .. etc. You already know
what server model
you are using and you should be able to find out what you
have to work with
on your host's web site.
If this is not already an active web site with a server
model, you can use
something like Form Mail, a CGI script that will do that job
for you ..

I need help with a 1 Page Form with scrollable text field (5000 limit characters) and printing

Hello, I have no training in using Adobe Acrobat Pro or Livecycle Designer so I need major help with a 1 page form that I am attempting to create. Basically the form will be used to nominate employees for a Job Well Done Award.
The form contains the following:
1.) The name(s) of the employees being nominated and the date of the accomplishment.
2.) In the middle of the page I have a section for a write up, limited to 5000 characters, this is were I am needing the most help. A couple of things, about this section: The font is set at 11 and I don't want it to change. The text field has multiple-line, scroll long text enabled. The text field is a certain size and can only hold so much text, then it starts to scroll, which I am ok with, I like that feature. The issue I am having is during printing. I would like to keep the text field scrollable but when I print I would like to be able to print everything in that field. Executing this is the problem, I have no clue how to do it. I was hoping for some setting within Acrobat Pro or LiveCycle to be available, but the more I read and research this, it appears that it may require java, xml, basically some coding. I don't know for sure.
3.) Below the text field I have another field for the person nominating to type their name and right next to that another field for a digital signature.
4.) And finally below those two fields I have a Submit button that is setup to start email application so the form can be emailed to the proper inbox.
Thank you in advance.

With an Acrobat form the only thing you can do is export the text to
another location (like a blank field on another page) or to another file
format. With an LCD form you can expand the text box itself, but you'll
need to ask about that over at the LCD Scripting forum.

Using PHP to process an online form and send the input by email is very simple. The mail() function takes a minimum of three arguments, namely: the address the mail is being sent to, the subject line, and the body of the email as a single string. The reason some people use scripts like form2mail.php is because they don't have the knowledge or patience to validate the user input to make sure it's safe to send.
Rather than attempt to trawl through your complex form looking for the problems, I would suggest starting with a couple of simple tests.
First of all, create a PHP page called mailtest.php containing the following script:
<?php
$to = '[email protected]'; // use your own email address
$subject = 'PHP mail test';
$message = 'This is a test of the mail() function.';
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message);
if ($sent) {
echo 'Mail was sent';
} else {
echo 'Problem sending mail';
?>
Save the script, upload it to your server, and load it into a browser. If you see "Mail is sent", you're in business. If not, it probably means that the hosting company insists on the fifth argument being supplied to mail(). This is your email address preceded by -f. Change the line of code that sends the mail to this:
$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, null, '[email protected]');
Obviously, replace "[email protected]" with your own email address.
If this results in the mail being sent successfully, you will need to adapt the code in form2mail.php to accept the fifth parameter. You need to change the following line, which is a few lines from the end of the script:
if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader))
Change it to this:
if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader, '[email protected]'))
Again, use your own email address instead of "[email protected]".
Once you have determined whether you need the fifth argument, test form2mail.php with a very simple form like this:
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="form2mail.php">
<p>
    <label for="name">Name:</label>
    <input type="text" name="name" id="name" />
</p>
<p>
    <label for="email">Email:</label>
    <input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
</p>
<p>
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="boat cleaning" id="options_0" />
      Boat cleaning</label>
    <br />
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="RV cleaning" id="options_1" />
      RV cleaning</label>
    <br />
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="motorcycle cleaning" id="options_2" />
      Motorcycle cleaning</label>
</p>
<p>
    <input type="submit" name="send" id="send" value="Submit" />
</p>
</form>
If that works, you can start to make the form more complex and add back your JavaScript validation.

Hi guys I was hoping to get some help with a contact form on my website, to be honest I havent a clue about php but kind of okay with html thats why the php code is just a copy and paste from some website, just trying to marry it up with the html but getting errors.

Help with Apple Mail

Okay, I have my Apple Mail linked to my Yahoo account, and it's been that way since April with no problems until recently.
I moved into my college dorm on Saturday, and last night I realized that I've only been getting emails on my iPhone from Yahoo. What's more is that I can not send emails from my Apple Mail. And when I sent it from the Yahoo website, it took about ten minutes for it to get to my phone, and then it finally showed up on the Yahoo website after being read on my phone.
If anyone can help me with this, I'd be extremely greatful because I appreciate the convenience of the Apple Mail. If it's any help, my Yahoo account won't even access Outlook either.
I tried deactivating it on my iPhone, but it still wasn't popping up on the Apple Mail.
Here's what the side bar looks like (pictured below), and when I click the "!," it says
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Yahoo” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to the server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” on port 993 timed out.
And if I take all accounts online, I get this
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “Yahoo” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to the server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” on port 993 timed out.
So if anyone can help me fix this, it'd be a huge relief and I really appreciate it. =)

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Help with the insert table/form tool in BIP 10.1.3.2.1

Hi, I'm trying to use the insert table/form tool in BIP, and running into some issues that I don't understand. First off, my data coming in looks like this (left column of tool):
Rowset
--- Row
------ Customer ID
------ Customer Name
------ Customer City
------ Product
------ Amount Sold
I would like the output to do the following:
a) have one page per customer. Customer should be determined by customer ID, and has attributes of customer ID, customer Name, Customer City
b) Show a table of all products and the total Amount Sold by product for that customer
c) Give a "grand total" for the customer
Can someone help with the steps needed to do this? I've tried several variations of the following without much luck:
1) Added Rowset and all children to the "Template" pane
2) Clicked on the "Row" group, and set Grouping = Customer ID, with a break of "New page per Element"
3) Clicked on the newly created (from step 2) Cust ID group, and set it to group by Product
4) Moved "amount sold" to be at same level as Product
5) Moved all of the customer attributes (name, address, etc.) to be at same level as Cust ID
6) On the Cust ID level, set the style to table
7) on row and rowset levels, set style to free form
This seems to be VERY close, except that it isn't creating a total amount for the sum of all products purchased by a customer. What do I need to do inside the tool to get a total per customer to show up?
Thanks in advance!
Scott
p.s. the final hierarchy in the template window looks like this:
Rowset (style = freeform, no grouping/sort by/breaks)
--- Row (style = freeform, group by customer ID, break new page per element)
------ Customer ID (style = table, group by product, no breaks)
--------- Product (nothing special)
--------- Amount Sold (calc for grouping = SUM)
------ Customer Name (nothing special)
------ Customer City (nothing special)
Thanks very much for the help!
Scott

To anyone else who sees this post, the answer is to do the following. Insert the Amount Sold field using the "Insert Field" tool, and set the function to sum, with the grouping checkbox turned on.
Thanks,
Scott

Can someone help with my Mail not working with my Microsoft Exchange server?

I am trying to set up my Mail account. I am using the Microsoft Exchange server. I've been using Entourage, but wanted to switch to using the Mac's Mail. I used the same settings I had with Entourage, but with Mac Mail I'm getting this error: MFEWSErrorDomain error 56. From some of the other posts I saw, it seems as though no one has any answers, but I figured I'd ask anyway.

There is no single cause of this problem and hence no single solution. There are several suggestions in this thread, if you haven't come across it, one of which might help:

Need help with PHP mail script

I have created a log in system . In that when the user completes the registration process an auto reply(auto-reply@domain) will generate and sent this to users email id regarding about the user name and password (Lo gin Details). After formal approval from the admin the user will get a user activation mail with log in link.
But , my problem is these are work only for mail accounts from my domain only(test@domain). its not send any of above mentioned details to other mail services like gmail or yahoo etc.
i discussed this   with some others, they said its the problem with your mail function   configuration. but i didn't get any needful information as am a beginner in PHP scripting.
i have contacted this with my hosting service they said its the problem with php mail () function and use php mailer() instead mail().
please give me a solution for the same..

Please help with submitting a pdf form

I've spend the last few days (literally) searching and searching - in this forum and across the web - for a SIMPLE solution to this problem and found nothing. Actually, I have found a few posts apparently trying to do the same thing I am, but with never a solution beyond "hire a programmer." Maybe I'm missing something obvious out there, and if so please feel free to throw tomatoes at me (along with a link I can get what I need - lol)
At this point I'm completely stumped - furthermore, I'm not a code guru in the slightest. In my research, I did find and buy a script that was supposed to do what I needed - but it doesn't so I'm still stuck and $50 in the hole.
Moving on, I realize this may be a rather low-tech request given the power of Adobe forms, but I have a client who wants it this way so that's the way it has to be. So, here we go...
My client wants his website viewers to complete an employment application pdf form and click <submit>
I have the form completely finished and ready to go
He then wants to receive that same completed form as a PDF document as an email attachment
He cares nothing about processing the form DATA (fields) becuase he simply wants to print the form and save it to his computer for future reference
However...
Most of the people viewing and completing this app are NOT computer savvy
In fact, many viewers use public computers (such as at a library) and have no email capabilities or the ability to save the form
So I cannot use the basic submit-by-email function (that requires a desktop email client)
So far what I've been trying to do (with the purchased script referred to above) is direct my <submit> button to the url of the php script on the client's server. If I select "html" in the (pdf) submit dialogue box, I do in fact get the DATA from the form in an email. But that's not what I need. If I select "entire pdf document" in the submit dialogue box, I get an error w/ the script.
In my research I've read that the form DATA can be sent to the server, then parsed back into a PDF form. This seems logical but unnecessary. Also this is an 8 page form with LOTS of data fields, some are required others are optional.
Is there ANY WAY to have the same form a viewer is filling out and submitting simply sent as an email attachment from the server the form is hosted on???

Yes, that's possible, and I have just the script...
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
I would suggest that the best approach is to set up the form to submit just the form data as an FDF file. This avoids the limitations associated with Reader-enabling the form, which is necessary for the entire filled-in form to be submitted. You mentioned that just sending the form data is logical but unnecesary, but this will be by far the most reliable method.
Now, you just need a server-side program (script) that processes the form submission. Here's what the script would do:
1. Accept the incoming data and check that it is a valid FDF.
2. Attach the FDF to an email message that gets sent to your client
The recipient of the email can launch the FDF attachment and the corresponding PDF will load and get populated with the data in the FDF. The filled-in PDF can then be viewed/printed/saved.

Hi i need help with iCloud mailing plz help me!

hi my name its rexhep kamberi am having so many troubels with icloud mail i keep putting paswoord but keeps asking me and asking i dont know why but please help

Try to delete your account from your device (Settings > iCloud) and then set it up again. This fixes the problem in most cases.

I need help with Mac Mail

"The Yahoo! IMAP server “imap.mail.yahoo.com” rejected the password for user "******""
Why does this happen? I enter my Yahoo password correct and i click "Remember in Keychain"
Wondering how i fix this. Thank you!
<Email Edited By Host>

If you haven't made any changes and suddenly the Mail program tells you a password is rejected, in most cases the password is just fine and there's nothing wrong with your computer. There's a little dance that goes on between your computer and the mail server when you check your mail and each step has a time limit set to it. If at any step time runs out the dance ends and Mail tells you there was a problem and in most cases the error message tells you that the password failed rather than reporting there was a time out error.
There's a reason for this that only programmers would care about. In most cases if you ignore the error message and try again later your mail comes through. What's really crazy is that sometimes (and this happened to me with both iCloud and gmail earlier this week) you can't get mail with the Mail app but you can log in with Safari and get your mail just fine. That's nice because you can verify that you really do know your password but annoying because it makes you think something may be wrong with your computer.

Can anyone help with Yahoo mail deactivation?

Within the last 24 hours, my Yahoo plus email account was deactivated for some reason. I signed into Yahoo mail directly and got the notice. The thing is, I paid my $19.99 a few days ago and received a notice that I had done so. Based on the reasons for "deactivation, " my account should not have been deactivated. Here's some other info:
I successfully signed into my email account as recently as two days ago using Safari but I also use mail on my Mac mail program to retrieve and send messages.
Over the last several months I noticed that my contacts no longer "auto-filled" when on the Yahoo mail website (have no idea if this is related to Safari or Yahoo).
I've lost all my contacts and emails but have most of them on my Mac mail program. I'm afraid to sync anything because I don't want to lose it all!
When I reactivated my account, I changed my password because I was afraid I could have been hacked though I have no evidence of that.
I cannot reach a human at Yahoo though I've tried. I am tempted to walk into their headquarters with laptop and cell phone in hand...
Would love your help!

Hi Winnie,
I'm having the same problemwith the deactivation of my account, except it's the free mail account. At least Yahoo's stuff-ups are egalitarian!
If I lived closer to Yahoo's HQ, I'd join you on the walk. Deactivation shouldn't occur without warnings and explanations - I've received neither.
I've tried using their feedback form, asking and answering questions on Yahoo Answers and using the Yahoo Customer Care twitter feed, all to no avail.
At the very least, you should demand financial compensation as you have paid for the service. I'm probably stuck with no recourse.
Sorry I couldn't help, but hopefully you've got some extra ammo when you do finally get through to someone.

Help with ActionScript/PHP email form

Hey guys, hope someone can help me out with this!
Haven't programmed in a while, but a friend asked me to look
at this and figure out why it isn't working. It's a simple form,
with the text boxes labeled inTxt_1, inTxt_2 ..... inTxt_13.
The ActionScript looks like this ...
Code:
submit.onRelease = function () {
var loadv = new LoadVars();
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_1 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_1.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_2 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_2.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_3 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_3.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_4 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_4.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_5 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_5.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_6 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_6.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_7 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_7.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_8 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_8.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_9 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_9.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_10 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_10.text;
loadv._level0.mc1.inTxt_11 = _level0.mc1.inTxt_11.text;
loadv.send("email.php",loadv,"POST");
(Quick question ... why is the _level0.mc1 part needed? Or is
it even required?)
Here's the PHP ...
Code:
<?php
$To = "[email protected]";
$subject = "site reply";
$Name = $_POST["inTxt_1"];
$Email = $_POST["inTxt_2"];
$Company = $_POST["inTxt_3"];
$Position = $_POST["inTxt_4"];
$Address = $_POST["inTxt_5"];
$Address1 = $_POST["inTxt_6"];
$Address2 = $_POST["inTxt_7"];
$ZipCode = $_POST["inTxt_8"];
$Country = $_POST["inTxt_9"];
$Tel = $_POST["inTxt_10"];
$Enquiry = $_POST["enquiry"];
$Comments = $_POST["inTxt_11"];
\$headers = "From: " . $_POST["inTxt_1"]. "<" .
$_POST["inTxt_2"] .">\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["inTxt_2"] . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-path: " . $_POST["inTxt_2"];
$message = "Name: $Name\n";
$message .= "Position: $Position\n";
$message .= "Company: $Company\n";
$message .= "Email: $Email\n";
$message .= "Address: $Address\n";
$message .= "Address1: $Address1\n";
$message .= "Address2: $Address2\n";
$message .= "Zip Code: $ZipCode\n";
$message .= "Country: $Country\n";
$message .= "Enquiry: $Enquiry\n";
$message .= "Phone: $Tel\n";
$message .= "Comments: $Comments\n";
mail($To, $subject, $message, $headers);
Print "Your mail has been sent";
?>
(Another question - why does the one $headers line have a /
infront of it? Should it be there?)
Now when I submit it, "Your mail has been sent" appears on
the screen, but I don't receive an e-mail. Can anyone help me??
Thanks so much!!
