Flash CS3 email form AS2

[seokutsa]

Hello,
I set up an email form movie clip in my Flash website. I put needed actionscripts using 2.0. I uploaded a php file (mailto.php). I do not see it working on the site.

My questions are:
1. Should the email form be set as a separate flash file to make it work?
2. Is it OK to create the form as a movie clip in a composite flash file?
3. Should the server be set up to accept a php file in order to make the email form work?
Thank you and look forward to hearing from any one.

Hi!
I've noticed a similar problem while working in a clip in as2
you should try to write the code that talks to the php in the main timeline..

mailform = "form.php";
confirm = "please wait for confirmation ..."
action = "send";
loadVariablesNum (mailform, 0, "POST");
gotoAndPlay ("wait");

wait frame:

loadVariablesNum(mailform, 0);
answer = confirm;

then after wait create a frame called loop:

if (answer != confirm) {
    gotoAndStop ("done");
}

and a frame that "loops" with it

gotoAndPlay("loop");

after this a frame called done where you can place a dynamic textfield tracing the variable answer.

here you got the php file:
