Ultimate Form Mail

**webgyrl** · June 27, 2004

Just working on a Contact page and I am implimenting Jack's Ultimate Form Mail Script.

Does anyone know how i would go about making a drop down menu with several contact name options and having the user select only ONE of these people to send the email to from the site?

I used the contact4.php template but it has check boxes... upon further reading of the docs it seems that the email is sent to all of those listed in the recipint array of the mailit.php code.

I've got this in my drop down code so far, but not sure if I need to add any other variable etc

<select name="send_to">
<option selected>select recipient</option>

<option value="*****@zikkipublishing.com">Jeremy

Rwakaara</option>

<option value="****@zikkipublishing.com">General

Info</option>

<option value="*********@zikkipublishing.com">Licensing

Inquiry</option>

<option value="*********@zikkipublishing.com">Webmaster</option>

</select>

Anyone know how I can have the email sent to only the chosen recipient in that drop down list? What modifications would I need to make to this line of mailit.php code:

$set['recipient'] = array('*****@zikkipublishing.com', '****@zikkipublishing.com', '**********@zikkipublishing.com', '*******@zikkipublishing.com');

Thanks for any help you can give.

Nat

PS... the page I am working on is at this link:

Ok I just tested the form and got this error message:

Message could not be sent. Mailer Error: Language string failed to load: recipients_failedwambuigirl@adelphi.netMessage could not be sent. Mailer Error: Language string failed to load: recipients_failed

Where did I go wrong?

_______________

Edit: I thought perhaps the error was that 2 of the email addresses in the recipient array in the mailit.php code were in the wrong order. I put them in the right order as they correspond to the 'send_to' field in the Contact form... still got the same error.

Could it have to do with this line of code?:

$set['email_type']= '1';/*1=smtp, 2=mail(), 3=qmail, 4=sendmail*/

Should the variable be 'mail' instead of 'smtp'?

**natimage** · June 27, 2004

I think that it should work using SMTP...although you can try using mail instead! Check out this topic on Jacks support forum. I've never worked with the drop-down menus in his code, so it's all kinda running together in my head. Really...I just haven't had coffee yet, therefore, all that code is just slugging around in my head!

Good luck...you might want to post on his forum if you have further problems. I think he's out of town a lot lately, but he will eventually answer you!

**webgyrl** · June 28, 2004

Tracy,

Thanks for that link. I am going to try those suggestions and see if they work.

I saw your other post and replied to it. If you post your question in my forum, it's easier for me to get to it. I would love to be able to answer questions here, too... but I check my own support forum much more frequently than I check TCH.

Jack,

Sorry.. I got sidetracked by a few things. I will get over to your forum to see if I can get to the bottom of this error when I get back to testing it.

Thanks for popping in here.
