PHP

[Bruce]

I would like to send information gleaned from an AMS CD to a PHP server that would in turn send me an e-mail with that information.
Someone was shown how to setup this up here on the forum but I can’t find it any more.

Re: PHP

Should my .PHP be in the root i.e www.mysite.com/process.php or www.mysite.com/docs/process.php ???

Re: PHP

Depends where you're pointed too, either will work fine...

This is the error code I get:
"Could not submit to web. Error code returned by server."

On the server's Log I get this:
[14/Jul/2003:09:09:37 -0700] "HEAD /process.php HTTP/1.0" 200 0

Any ideas?

Thx!

Re: PHP

Ok the server side I have:

<?php

// set variables
$email ="[email protected]":
$subject ="CD Name":
$body ="%cdname%.":
$replyto ="[email protected]":

// send email
mail ("$email","$subject","$body","$replyto");

// end script
exit;

?>

Should the body look like this?
<font color=red>$body ="%cdname%.":</font color=red>

Or should I not have the variable name in it?

HELP!

Re: PHP

Ok...
found one problem:

<?php

// set variables
$email ="[email protected]"<font color=red>;</font color=red>
$subject ="CD Name""<font color=red>;</font color=red>
$body ="%cdname%.""<font color=red>;</font color=red>
$replyto ="[email protected]""<font color=red>;</font color=red>

// send email
mail ("$email","$subject","$body","$replyto");

// end script
exit;

?>

I am still gettin the error tho! Any PHP due masters out there? H e l l u.....

Re: PHP

You have a bunch of double quotes there, where there should only be one.

$subject ="CD Name<font color=red>""</font color=red>;
$body ="%cdname%.<font color=red>""</font color=red>;
$replyto ="[email protected]<font color=red>""</font color=red>;

Re: PHP

Other then that, does everything else look right?

[Bruce]

Re: PHP

This is what I changed it to:

<?php

// set variables
$email ="[email protected]";
$subject ="CD Name";
$body ="";


// send email
mail ("$email","$subject","$body","$replyto");

// end script
exit;

?>

Notice the "body" of the message... What do I place there?

In my Submit to Web Parameters I have "CD Name"="%cdname%". The Variable %cdname% has been read from a text file with a TextFile-Read Action. I want this variable information to be placed into the body of the email that the .PHP sends to me. Is this right?

I get the email but no body.

Re: PHP

http://www.indigorose.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&amp;Board=UBB2&amp;Number=12249&amp;fpart=1&amp;PHPSESSID=

I can't get it to fly! HELP!

Re: PHP

Bruce, sorry I deserted you today, I was tied up doing some PHP coincidentally. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Did you get this working yet? If not, let me know and I'll get it going for you...

Re: PHP

Nope! I would have posted it along with how much hair I pulled out! LOL

THANKS!

Re: PHP

OK, first the PHP portion:


<?php

// set variables
$email ="[email protected]";
$subject ="CD Name";


// send email
mail ("$email","$subject","$body","$replyto");

// end script
exit;

?>

leave the $body="" out, just use what I have above. Save it as "process.php" somwhere on your server, i.e. http://www.groovybanana.com/process.php. You will set the body variable from AMS...

Now in AMS use an INTERNET > SUBMIT TO WEB action to send the email. Set the URL to your script, i.e. http://www.groovybanana.com/process.php and leave everything else at the default settings. Add the body variable to the "parameters" area by pressing the little page icon under the "parameters" area. You will get a little pop-up window with a NAME area and a VALUE area, in the name area type body and in the value area add whatever variabe you want to pass as the body of your email, i.e. %yourMessageBody%.

That's it, if it doesn't work re-read this post and try again, I guarantee this will work...
