Email form Web Forms?

Can anyone suggest how to invoke the default mail application on the client machine using Oracle web forms.
For Example, Press a button on the web form. A new message in Outlook is opened, and pre-filled with say the to address, the subject and a number of ATTACHMENTS.
The complication is that I would like to insert a number of attachments into the email. (Meaning I don't think I can use mailto:)
I understand that this would have been possible using OLE2 with client server forms. But, we are using web forms and the middle tier is Unix, so I don't think it is possible.
Hope you can help. Thanks.

Hi, Liam. Thanks for the prompt response.
The support document says:
"Note: The email address that will be receiving the form submission must exist in either your sites CRM (customer database) or be a admin/email user of the site."
As noted in my post, I did create a BC user with the required email address: [email protected] I gave it the username PureTemp Inquiry and assigned it to the Administrators group.
Am missing some detail about setting up a user?

Sending email from web forms (Forms 6i)

Does anyone know how to send email using Outlook from web forms? I can get it working with client server but not with web forms.
Thanks,

Many ways to send a email:
1. use Web.Show_Document(v_url, '_blank') to call a .asp or .php or .cgi page which can send email, attaching some message.
2. use utl_smtp built_in in Oracle 8i, you can save this procedure in database, then call this procedure in your web form.
PROCEDURE SEND_EMAIL (sender IN VARCHAR2,
recipient IN VARCHAR2,
message IN VARCHAR2)
IS
mailhost VARCHAR2(30) := 'smtp.aaaaa.com';
mail_conn utl_smtp.connection;
BEGIN
mail_conn := utl_smtp.open_connection(mailhost, 25);
utl_smtp.helo(mail_conn, mailhost);
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn, sender);
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn, recipient);
utl_smtp.data(mail_conn, message);
utl_smtp.quit(mail_conn);
-- Handle the error
END;
GOOD LUCK

Disabling Name/Email from Web Form

Our client, who is a doctor, had us create a patient survey form. However, he would like it to be submitted anonymously, therefore I need to take the Name and Email off of the form. I know this is not possible within the web form options on the back end of the site.
Any tips?

Hello Design054atAlphagraphics,
You would just give each input field a value so that the form does vailidate. Here is an example of how I would go about this:
http://jsfiddle.net/chaddidthis/FZnvW/1/
I removed the inputs from the table since they no longer have anything to do with the information I'm trying to collect and you don't need the labels any longer. And placing them in a div that is hidden so the user doesn't have to worry about them.
I hope this helps you.

Pdf form -- Web form?

I created a pdf fillable form using Acrobat 9 and imported it into FormsCentral. Everything works fine! Is it possible now to make the form fillable as a web form? That would be not just a homerun, but a grand slam for me!

Hi;
This isn't something you can do with FormsCentral, the imported PDF allows you to distribute a PDF with a Submit button that collects the data back in FormsCentral for analasys but does not provide a URL or web version of the form.
Thanks,
Josh

Web form: can't get phone number to show up in email notification

http://www.rockmitzvah.com/contact/contact4.htm
trying to add a phone number field so my client can call leads. I have tried the phone number field both as required and not. The resulting Thank You screen and email just show this without the phone number:
Summary of web form submission:
Your Name
j a
Email Address
[email protected]
Case Number
4388779
Message
phone number
Is it a workflow issue? How do I fix it?
thanks
j

Hi there,
Your phone number field name doesn't match any of the BC's phone number fields. You have name="PhoneNumber" there, but BC names are name="HomePhone" and name="CellPhone".
Try reinserting that form onto a page and submitting it.
Cheers,

Web Forms Email Notification

Possibly dumb question here, but it's my first time with Business Catalyst and I'm working with a site someone else set up, so please forgive me.
The client has a web form that takes consultation requests. Submissions go into the database, and the client gets an email. Currently, the email goes to [email protected]; they want it to go to [email protected] I've been looking though BC for the last hour and can't find anywhere where this is controlled. Where do I change the email address these notifications go to?
Thanks

Hi,
Check the workflow set-up as this is the notification email that gets sent to the site users.
- http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/152/bc_152.html
- http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/657/cpsid_65743.html
If still needing help please provide the site URL and the webform so we can verify your set-up.
Kind regards,
-Sidney

I only see Web Forms & Email in Site Manager

Why do I only see Web Forms & Email settings in the Site Manager for a WebMarketing Site? Where did everything else go? I'm trying to upload a pdf file and that function is gone in BC.

Hi,
If you have published the site via Muse, Please try this
In Admin Panel, on your Right Hand side top, Mouse over on your name and Go to "My Details". You will see a check box "Enable online content editing". Check this box, Click save and logout. Login again, and goto site manager, you will see some more options like File manager
Please let me know if you have any other query.

ERROR: Your web form must capture customer name and email address.

Hi,
I keep receiving this error message when trying to checkout and submit a payment.
ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page.
The strange thing is it's only happening in chrome. It works perfectly in IE and firefox, the form submits and takes me to the order confirmation page. I've tested it on multiple PCs so it's definitely a chrome issue. Does anyone have any advice as to what could be causing this issue with chrome?
Thanks,
Pete

Check your eCommerce web form in the admin has the ID - 211729
This is what the form ID is, if you have deleted it and made a new one it will not Marry up
The things you normally look for with this error is The first name and last name along with email fields have the right ID and name parameters on the input. The javascript is picking those up so it looks like that is working.
So next is the form in the admin marrying up with the form on the page or in this case the Registration Buy layout.

Well, that would depend on what language your using.
IE: PHP, HTML, etc.
Here are several PHP links (if you use PHP):
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

You can also do a search on 'send email' here...

How do i fix the "web form must capture customer name and email address" error?

Hi all,
I have a webform that is submitting securely to the bc servers. I get the response:
{"SystemMessage": { "success": False, "message": "ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page." }}
I have verified that the "FirstName","LastName","EmailAddress" are actually gettting sent with their corresponding values. I can't seem to figure out why i keep getting this error. Can someone please lend a helping hand?!? Thanks guys... here's my code:
var rAction = 'https://site.worldsecuresystems.com/FormProcessv2.aspx?WebFormID=85886&OID={module_oid}&OTYPE={module_otype}&EID={module_eid}&CID={module_cid}&CC={module_urlcountryc ode}&Referrer={module_siteurl,true,true}&JSON=1';
var rData = 'FirstName='+escape(fName.val())+'&LastName='+escape(lName.val())+'&EmailAddress='+escape (email.val())+'&Username='+escape(username.val())+'&Password='+escape(passwd.val())+'&Pass wordConfirm='+escape(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+escape(baddress.val())+'&BillingCit y='+escape(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+escape(bstate.val())+'&BillingZip='+escape(bzip.v al())+'&PaymentMethodType='+escape(paymentMethodType)+'&CardName='+escape(cName.val())+'&C ardNumber='+escape(cNum.val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+escape(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+esc ape(expYear)+'&CardType='+escape(cType)+'&CardCCV='+escape(ccv.val())
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: rAction,
data: rData,
success: function(msg){
console.log('success');
$('#result').html(msg);
error: function(msg){
console.log('error');
$('#result').html(msg);

Ok -- after testing this out a little on my own I think it must have to do with not properly serialzing the data you are passing in the ajax function. In the example I linked to earlier they are just serialzing the form data and it works because it converts the data in the form's input fields to URL encoded notation.
If you aren't using an actual form on your site to mimick the example I linked to then when building your "rData" string instead of using the "escape" function for each of the parameter values, you should be using the "encodeURIComponent" function instead which instead of escaping characters will convert it to URL encoded notation. That's probably your issue. Here's more about encodeURIComponent(): http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_encodeURIComponent.asp
Try this with the rData variable instead:
var rData = 'FirstName='+encodeURIComponent(fName.val())+'&LastName='+encodeURIComponent(lName.val()) +'&EmailAddress='+encodeURIComponent(email.val())+'&Username='+encodeURIComponent(username .val())+'&Password='+encodeURIComponent(passwd.val())+'&PasswordConfirm='+encodeURICompone nt(passwd2.val())+'&BillingAddress='+encodeURIComponent(baddress.val())+'&BillingCity='+en codeURIComponent(bcity.val())+'&BillingState='+encodeURIComponent(bstate.val())+'&BillingZ ip='+encodeURIComponent(bzip.val())+'&PaymentMethodType='+encodeURIComponent(paymentMethod Type)+'&CardName='+encodeURIComponent(cName.val())+'&CardNumber='+encodeURIComponent(cNum. val())+'&CardExpiryMonth='+encodeURIComponent(expMonth)+'&CardExpiryYear='+encodeURICompon ent(expYear)+'&CardType='+encodeURIComponent(cType)+'&CardCCV='+encodeURIComponent(ccv.val ())

I opened Adobe Acrobate XI Standard to create a form. I then selected From Template, which took me to Adobe FormsCentral Online. However, I think the form is an HTML web form. All I wanted was a regular PDF form that I could email my co-workers for an internal project we're colletively working on. Now I see that FormsCentral is going away and I can't get my doc to save as a PDF without an upgrade? Help

You should be able to log into the online Formscentral Acrobat XI air app and see your doc there. From there you would need to save it out as a PDF without a submit button to have it continue to work past July. If you don't see your online form(s) please let me know the adobeID you use to log into the service as well as the form name that is missing and I will look into it for you.

Web Form Email Response Layout

Hi All,
I have a working web form that successfully sends plain text responses to my email address on submit
Below is an example of the response i receive...
Enquiry_Type:
General Enquiry
Name_Of_Sender:
Jack Tyler
Sender_Email__Address:
[email protected]
Message:
Does This Work?
submit:
Send Message
I have a couple of queries...
1) How can i remove the submit:Send Message button from the reply.
2) I would like to add formatting options to the reply so the questions are bold and the answer is in normal text. Also i would like to add a line between each section so that each section is clearer to read and less clustered. I have read about HTML email responses but I am unsure if this is the best option for me to use.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi the web form using the code is available here http://hfcc.0catch.com/contact.html.
The code i am using is listed below.

Web Form sends to 2 different emails address

Hi,
I want to put a drop dowm box in my web contact form that if someone selects Office, the form data goes to email address one. If selects reception, data goes to email 2. Is it doable? Seems like BC can only forward emails.

Hi Liam,
Thx so much for your reply. I would love to implement the method you mentioned. I had a try it, but I could not figure out what to put in form action. I tried the one in the example, "/Default.aspx?A=Form&Email="+my email, it went to home page with "/Default.aspx?A=Form&Email=" in the url, and the style of my home page is a bit strange. But more important, it put everything in the form including CaptchaV2, CaptchaTV2, CaptchaHV2. I dont understand what they are. Can I set what is being send?
I also tried the action that the form automatically generated, "/FormProcessv2.aspx?WebFormID=10254&OID={module_oid}&OTYPE={module_otype}&EI D={module_eid}&CID={module_cid}"+"&A=Form&Email="+my email, but the form did not send to my email. Any ideas?
