Help with XML-Flash-PhP based Contact Form

[grecofabulous]

Hello,

I recently purchased a flash template and have been unsuccessful in trying to get the contact form to work. According to the instructions all I have to do in insert my e-mail addy into the configuration XML file and upload. StartLogic is my server and they accept PhP so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Here is the coding for the configuration XML and the PhP. Thanks to anyone that can help.

<!--
Please read this information to learn how to set up the contact form integrated
into the template.

This readme file explains in details the meaning of the settings that can be
done in the fcContactFormConfiguration.xml configuration file.

It is recommended for you to use an XML editor to make changes to this file
because it’s less possible to make an error in the markup which can cause to
a not working contact form.
-->
<contactFormConfiguration>

<!--
An e-mail address which will be used to receive messages from your contact form.
You can specify several e-mail addresses separating them with a comma.
For example: first_email@domain.com, second_email@domain.com, third@domain.com
-->
<emailTo>your_email@domain.com</emailTo>

<!--
A server script type which will process sending e-mails. It depends on your
hosting and in the current version of the contact form it is allowed to use
two types: php (Apache, PHP Hosting); asp (IIS web server, ASP).
-->
<serverProcessorType>php</serverProcessorType>

<!--
A name of the script file which process sending e-mails on your server (without
extension). The name contact is used by default.
-->
<serverProcessorFileName>contact</serverProcessorFileName>

<!--
Set whether to validate only required fields (true/false). The default value is
true which means the not required fields of your contact form will not be validated.
For example if the e-mail field of your form is set as not required (imagine it)
the form will be processed even if the user types in an incorrect e-mail address.
-->
<validateRequiredOnly>false</validateRequiredOnly>

<!--
Set whether to submit the form when the Enter key is pressed even if the focus is
not on the Submit button (true/false).
-->
<submitFormOnEnter>false</submitFormOnEnter>

<!--
Text showing to the user when the form is submitted without any errors.
-->
<messageSentText>Thank you for your message.</messageSentText>

<!--
Text showing in case the form is not submitted because of a server error.
-->
<messageSentFailedText>Sorry, your message couldn't be sent</messageSentFailedText>

<!--
Text your visitor will see while waiting till the processing is over.
-->
<formProcessingText>processing...</formProcessingText>

<!--
Your SMTP server (for ASP only).
-->
<smtpServer>localhost</smtpServer>

<!--
Your SMTP port (for ASP only).
-->
<smtpPort>25</smtpPort>

<!--
Set whether to send the message as a plain text (true) or as HTML (false).
-->
<plainText>false</plainText>

<!--
ID of the input field (in the structure XML file) to use for the “from: ”
or email to use instead (for example: mailfrom@domainname.com).
-->
<emailFromSource>4</emailFromSource>

<!--
Subject of the e-mails that will be sent through this contact form or ID of
the input field (in the structure XML file) to use for the “subject: ” label
in your e-mail client.
-->
<subjectSource>Contact Form from your site</subjectSource>

<!--
Validation error messages that are showing to the user when the form fails to
validate. The form supports different types of validators. You can change the
text of the error messages the validators produce here.

You can use the {LABEL} keyword in these messages. It will replace it with the
label value of the field where an error occurs.
