Ok ive been messing around with a flash template my buddy bought online and we have everything set up but we cant get the contact form to send the info to his email. The file form05configuration.xml script looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!--
-- 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>info@alphaprevention.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>2</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>

</contactFormConfiguration>


Sorry that is soo long. I'm new to this kind of stuff. I took out some of the bottom stuff that had to do with validation of correct email and stuff like that. Hosting is with GoDaddy.
How can I get this to link to his email? Am I doing something wrong?

Where is the ASP code? We can't do much with the XML.

Ohh sorry, I'm very new to this. Like as in I don't know what I'm doing.
Here is the contact.asp

I have not edited this at all from the original version so there probablly is something in there that I would have to edit to goto my site. There is also a gdform.asp if you need that. It didn't really look like it had anything to do with the email part but I would have no idea.

Hehe might as well post the gdform.asp as well.

Dim landing_page, host_url
Dim fso, outfile, filename, dirname, myFolder
Dim req_method, key, value
Dim bErr, errStr, bEmpty

bErr = false

Set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
host_url = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_HOST")
req_method = Request.ServerVariables("REQUEST_METHOD")
dtNow = Now()
filename = Server.MapPath("\ssfm")

filename = filename & "\gdform_" & DatePart("M", dtNow) & DatePart("D", dtNow) & DatePart("YYYY", dtNow) & DatePart("N", dtNow) & DatePart("S", dtNow)

Dim tmpStr
tmpStr = tmpStr & "<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=" & var_name & " START>" & vbCRLF
tmpStr = tmpStr & var_value & vbCRLF
tmpStr = tmpStr & "<GDFORM_VARIABLE NAME=" & var_name & " END>"
FormatVariableLine = tmpStr
end function
Sub OutputLine(byVal line)
outfile.WriteLine(line)
end sub
if err.number = 0 then
Set outfile = fso.CreateTextFile(filename, true, false)
if err.number <> 0 then
bErr = true
errStr = "Error creating file! Directory may not be writable or may not exist.<br>Unable to process request."
else
if(req_method = "GET") then
for each Item in request.QueryString
if item <> "" then
bEmpty = false
key = item
value = Request.QueryString(item)
if(lcase(key) = "redirect") then
landing_page = value
else
line = FormatVariableLine(key, value)
Call OutputLine(line)
end if
end if
next
elseif (req_method = "POST") then
for each Item in request.form
if item <> "" then
bEmpty = false
key = item
value = Request.form(item)
if(lcase(key) = "redirect") then
landing_page = value
else
line = FormatVariableLine(key, value)
Call OutputLine(line)
end if
end if
next
end if
outfile.close
end if
if(bEmpty = true) AND errStr = "" then
bErr = true
errStr = errStr & "<br>No variables sent to form! Unable to process request."
end if
if(bErr = false) then
if (landing_page <> "") then
response.Redirect "http://" & host_url & "/" & landing_page
else
response.Redirect "http://" & host_url
end if
else
Response.Write errStr
end if
set fso = nothing
else
Response.Write " An Error Occurred creating mail message. Unable to process form request at this time."
end if
%>

Now what exactly is the error message you are getting? Or does it "do nothing".

when you try to submit it says "Sorry, your message couldn't be sent"
The website is www.alphaprevention.com it still needs some work like the font color of the contact form and stuff liek that so don't mind that :P

I've been searching online and I've just read that I need to have the form be directed to gdform.asp but I still don't know how to do that.

bumpp

I would suggest checking out the tutorials at asp.net or aspnettutorials.com. Good luck!
