Checkbox = FormMail recipient

[Bojon]

I’ve used Mats FormMail and love it.

I know how to make a form submit and send an email.

What I would like to do is take this one step further and fix it so I have many email addresses on a check box list.

Every box checked would receive an email and none that did not.

This will be used for requesting an auto response email with more information about individual products.

If they check the boxes indicating they are interested in more information about Items “A” and “C” but not “B” they would receive two auto response emails. One specifically about product “A” and one about product “C”

I’ve figured out the basics of configuring hidden fields on my form like email, redirect, required, etc… but I can’t figure this one out by myself.

Could someone give me the field name and syntax for this or some instructions?

Or if you can point me to a form page that does this, I might be able to see how they did it as well.

Thanks for your help; I’m a lot better at designing than programming. I also use Dreamweaver MX if that makes a difference.

Sincerely,

Bojon.

Hey Bojon,

mmm,, Well you could do somthing like this

------

<input type="checkbox" name="ProductA" value="ON"> Product A

-------

in the script
--------

if($FORM{'ProductsA'} eq ON){
open(MAIL,"|$mailprog -t") || print "can't open mail";
print MAIL "To: Whatever\n";
print MAIL "From: Whatever\n";
print MAIL "Subject: More about product A\n";
print MAIL "MORE ON PRODUCT";
close(MAIL);
}

---------

do the same for the others. Im not sure how matts script works never seen it so i can't say if he uses the $mailprog for your mailprogram you might have to change that

Good luck!
