Simple contact form that emails resutls

Hi Folks,
using jdev 11.1.1.3
I need to construct a simple contact form that takes the results of the input boxes and emails it to a specified reciptient. It should be easy but I can't find any references to constructing such an app anywhere in the documents. Can someone point me to a simple tutorial that may exist out there?
Thanks much,
Pat

You probably need to write some Java class that will do the email sending using Java Mail:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index-jsp-139225.html
Then you can expose this class as an ADF data control and bind a JSF page to that method.

I, and my clients, want a VERY simple contact form hosting option...

There's no need for us to have data collected and analyzed. No need for yet another hosting service to store data we'll NEVER use.
I've already got a hosting service for my site. My clients already have hosting for their sites. None of us are willing to spend another
dime to have a second hosting system for anything. Don't care. Don't want it. LOVE the Muse forms and the ease with which I can
modify them to look the way I want them to, but that all adds up to jack squat if they don't work.
All we're looking for is a simple contact form that allows users to fill in a couple of form fields, add a little message and hit send.
My clients want to have at the most, about 5 different email addresses set up so they can keep the information organized a bit on their end.
They may get at most about 300-500 emails a month at a peak time of the year.
That's not too much to ask is it?
I mean, if I use the "Upload to FTP host" feature in Muse, what's so hard about adding a bit of code that uses that server space to pass along
a few messages to a mailbox?
Can't we just set up a BASIC contact form that is just creating an email and sending it to an email address with a preformatted message based
upon the form fields we add to the widget? Something like this:
Name: John Smith
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 555-555-5555
Message: You guys are a great little company, thanks for being so swell.
Dat be all we want yo! Hook us up mang!
For $15 dollars a month that I'm paying to use Muse, there oughta be something like that in the form widget panel! Dang!
Really have a bad taste in my mouth with this whole attempt to channel people into Business Catalyst... That might be great
for some of your customers, but odds are, not really... The majority of Muse users are likely to be designers that want to have
a bit more control over their clients image/brand, and want to have less painful ways of keeping up with the advancements in
webdesign/development without having to learn new code crap every few months!
So let's not be too greedy and accidentally paint some of your customers into a corner and try to get them to pay you more
money for services they don't need, and probably don't want.
I've recommended Muse to a few designer friends of mine, and their comments are all the same: Love Muse for the ease of
use in designing websites, hate the idea of Business Catalyst. "Feels like a ball and chain, but worse because I have to pay for it."
Yeah, time to rethink your plan a bit folks?
Simple Muse Form Widget. Get on it! It would be VERY nice of you to do so!

I do agree and have posted a few times on this. It would be nice not to be tied down with another hosting subscription. It would be better if instead of having to pay for BC hosting with different plan pricing they could have different pricing for Muse with different feature options. I would pay more for Muse to use the form feature freely on any server I choose because like you said the form widget is great for making really custom forms, but that ease of use should come at a cost because it is so sought after.
I am getting sick of people wanting everything for free just because it is there and they want it so badly but think they shouldn't have to pay for it because it is not in their budget.
Muse should have different tiers with different feature options and not force BC on users. BC is a great solution for people without hosting or users that are not familiar with setting up their own servers but for the ones that do have their own servers and are comfortable with using them feel tied down.

Editing simple contact form...

When I place the simple contact form widget onto a page, it won't let me delete the "Enter Name" field. All I need is the "Enter Email" input. When is Adobe going to add full form capabilities? That is one of the glaring things missing from Muse.

Name and Email are the only fields in Adobe Muse forms that are Required by default and you cannot remove them nor can you make them optional. You may use some custom JS code to prepopulate and hide the name field if it is absolutely necessary for your purpose.

ColdFusion contact form by email - please help

Hello,
I tried to create a contact form, using email to send, and I
have some issues and questions:
1. I like to have a message "Your form has been sent", but it
shows the blank after user submited the form.
2. If user enter her email address, this form will send to
her email address and me, but it does not send to her email
address.
Can anyone please take a look at my code below?
Why I don't get the output (result) I like to have?
Thanks very much.
Jenny.

I always start my troubleshooting with

You also have a problem with an cfmail tag without the
closing tag. I'm surprised that didn't cause a crash.
You also have some problems with your if/else logic.

Is there a way to remove fields from a "Simple Contact" form?

What I am looking to do is create a "subscribe to newsletter" form where the user only has to enter their email address. I don't want them to have to enter their name or write a message. Does anyone know if it is possible to alter the simple contact form?
Please see photo for what I am looking to create.
Thank you for your time.

Hi Kurt,
What I ended up doing was creating the form in Muse then bringing the html page into Dreamweaver and removing the name field. It works but can be kind of a pain if you want to make changes to the design part in Muse because you have to go back into dreamweaver and remove the name field again every time you export. I'm glad to hear the next major release will no longer require a name field.
It would be nice if we could play with the code behind muse within muse. It would make life easier especially when inserting google analytic tracking for pdfs. ;-)

What are the best customizable contact forms that work with Godaddy?

Hello,
I have never had much look with getting contact forms to work but i'm not sure whether it may just be the contact forms i choose don't work through Godaddy that well.
Can anyone point me in a direction to any customizable contact forms that do work through Godaddy. PHP script needs to be included.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this has bugged me for some time now.
Alex.

Depends on the level of hosting you have.
Using Our PHP Form Mailers on Web & Classic Hosting | GoDaddy Help | GoDaddy Support
GoDaddy hosts 2 form-to-email processing scripts in PHP. You activate them from your CPanel.
One is super basic and the easiest to set-up
Using gdform.php
The other has a little more room for customization but it isn't exactly robust.

Simple contact form php error

Simple Contact form in Site Studio

I'm trying to build a simple Contact Us form in a Site Studio website. I've built the front end form using the FCK editor, but I'd like to be able to email the form data. Does IdocScript have built in functions to handle emailing form data? I don't want to store it on Content Server, or check any documents in, just email the data.
Right now I just have the form action pointing to PHP script I host outside the Content Server, but it seems like it would be cleaner if this could just submit back to the Content Server.
Thanks,
-Jason

If you want use something existing or out-of-the-box (OOTB), the "easiest" way would be to post to the SUBMIT_HTML_FORM idcservice. When the form is submitted, a copy of the form is checked into the content server, which you can then have subscriptions alert users via email.
Here is some help on getting forms to work via the SUBMIT_HTML_FORM idcservice if you don't know what I'm talking about. I wound up implementing this [almost] exact solution about 1.5 years before Kyle's post - just tooting my own horn here :) - but props to Kyle explaining it pretty well. There are many tweaks that can be made, but it works quite well on a fundamental level. You can see some of the "issues" I'm still running into by reading my (Andrew) comments, but you're using the same editor that Kyle did, so you shouldn't run into any of the issues I did.
I also went one step further by writing my own email (using javamail) idoc function and calling it anytime a new form was submitted. This is obviously something that is not OOTB and reserved for advanced discussion.
Good luck!
Edit: Stupid "insert a link" doesn't work. Use standard HTML tags to insert hyperlinks.

URGENT! Building Forms that email a response

I want to build forms that, when filled in, will send an email of the persons answers to the designated person. For example: We have a marketing section on our Intranet aimed at our sales force. We need to include an order form for particular marketing collateral that when submitted will send a simple informational email to our fulfillment center.
I have run a simple test with a sample procedure using UTL_SMTP and it works, I'm just not sure how to tie the form to the code. Anybody have experience with this? How do I pass the form variables to the procedure?

Hi,
You can bind it with form by making it a form on procedure and so you can send both the text as well as the person whom to send the mail from the form to that procedure.The procedure should be able to take care of sending the mail(the procedure what u have wriiten can be used).
You can also go trough the following forum answers for code of how to do it.

Contact Form with Email PHP not working?

Hello !
Here is a link to my contact form:
http://bayareafacepainters.com/quote_face_painting.html
Here is the tutorial I am following to set up the Form to Email PHP
http://www.freecontactform.com/email_form.php
My form is not working. It is not sending me the email, and the "Thank you for contacting us page" is not showing up either. Is this a simple fix? I am not an expert coder, any help on what I am doing wrong or missing would be helpfull!

Thank you for the suggestions... I cleaned up the names, and so I guess I am supposed to match the names in the form to the PHP, so I changed the PHP to reflect the names of the fields in the form... it seems there may be more areas where I need to do this... What else does this need to work properly?

How do I create a contact form that will work with Godaddy???

hello,
Godaddy hosts my website and i can not get any type of contact form to work! When I publish to my .mac account it works fine, using the HTML snippet, however when I publish the exact same file to the Godaddy server it doesn't even show up. Anyone have any idea how I can resolve this? should i change hosting companies?? godaddy says that it is not there issue...

One reason why it would not show is if not all your files have been uploaded. How are you uploading?
If you are using Cyberduck or Transmit, you can actually check that the relevant files have been uploaded to the server. If uploading that page with the form on it, then ensure that you upload both the html page, plus the files folder that goes with it.
Are you using Windows or Linux hosting? Linux hosting is preferable for iWeb.
If you use GoDaddy they have facilities for you to use FormMail, so you can upload this directly to your hosting space and then create your own form using html code in an html snippet and then upload. You have more options if you do it this way and you have more control. If you use a third party such as Wufoo, everything is stored on their servers and if their servers go down for any reason you have not workable form.

One more question, what kinds of other things can you program with PHP?
You can program lots of things and make modifications to existing scripts as well. Typically most people work a lot with information in databases and use a language like PHP to process the information and print it into HTML. For instance, if you want to keep printing results from mySQL as a table you would make a loop in PHP to keep printing:
<tr><td>$row['var1']</td><td>$row['var2']</td></tr>
For each row of results. That is a very simplified version that wouldn't work without other coding so it's just an example. A lot of times there are pre-made scripts in the case of a forum like this where you should consider open source or commercially available solutions. And if you want to get even more complicated you can build a facebook from scratch and use PHP interactions with client-side scripting (Javascript) and libraries like JQuery.
