Oliver,

I'm not sure of what I'm doing wrong in getting my_cforms_action() to kick-in.

Is there anything special that I need to do?  I didn't think that there was….

I'm simply trying to get the mail() function in the function to send me an email with bogus data, but its not firing when I send an emai… the mail() function is out of the $formID check, so it should kick off no matter what the ID is… unless I'm missing something ??

I put my mail() code into a test.php file and ran it from the command line with no problems…. so how can I tell that my_cforms_action() is getting called… or am I even calling the right thing?

I'm really just needing to read in a hidden variable, get an email address with it, and then mail it to the email address….

Thanks

Matt

PS: I think there is an easier way to do what you want to do, even though it requires some direct cforms coding (a few lines).

Oliver,

I still couldn't get the hidden variable to be recognized in the my_cforms_action() function, but I was able to get the post processing to work just fine with my_cforms_filter()

I'm using a dynamic form (form 2 in this case) where I process the fields and use them to output a text message via email.  By going this route, I'm able to send an email to the originator, business owner, and the admin.  I have custom code for get_userdata() that gets the email address for a given user.  You can see the live example at http://www.gjzone.com/kettlewell-enterprises and look at the page source for all the fields.

if ( isset($POSTdata['sendbutton2']) ) {

    $to = get_usermeta($POSTdata['cf2_field_7'], 'email');
    $subject = 'New Message From GJZone.com Client';

    $message = " You have a new message from the GJZone.com Website\\n\\n";
    $message .= "Contact Information: \\n";
    $message .= 'Name:     '. $POSTdata['cf2_field_2'] . "\\n";
    $message .= 'Email:    '. $POSTdata['cf2_field_3'] . "\\n";
    $message .= 'Phone:    '. $POSTdata['cf2_field_4'] . "\\n";
    $message .= 'Web:      '. $POSTdata['cf2_field_5'] . "\\n";
    $message .= "Message: \\n";
    $message .= $POSTdata['cf2_field_6'];
    $message .= "\\n\\n\\n";

    $headers = 'From: general@gjzone.com' . "\\r\\n" . 'Reply-To: '. $POSTdata['cf2_field_3'] . "\\r\\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
    mail($to, $subject, stripslashes($message), $headers);
  }

I hope this inspires or helps someone else.

Matt
