Hello,

How can I convert the HTML code of MonsterMail in flash?
The code is:
<form action="http://www.hostmonster.com/monstermail" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
Name: <input type="text" name="Name"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="mailfrom"><br>
Street Address: <input type="text" name="StreetAddress"><br>
City: <input type="text" name="City"><br>
Zip: <input type="text" name="Zip"><br>
Phone: <input type="text" name="Phone"><br>
<input type="hidden" name="sendtoemail" value="webmaster@thanossynodinos.com"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send Email">
</form>


I have already build my form but I don't know what to write to the "submit" button.

Thank you
My site URL is www.thanossynodinos.com, if you want to take a look.

Thanks mate.

However your answer didn't help me so I 'll describe my problem a bit more. MonsterMail is a service provided by hostmonster to send form results via mail. They have an example on how to use it in HTML. The thing is that I'm using flash for my webpage. So I would like someone to tell me how can I use MonsterMail in flash. There must be a way.

Thanx again

The only way you can get this to work, if it will work at all, is to make your flash form post to the monstermail script. You will have to see the documentation in your CPanel to find this out.

I'm not good with Flash so I can't help you with the code, but as long as

1. Your flash form posts to the monster mail script
2. Your form elements are named properly for monster mail to handle them

you should fine.
