Sending FMP generated data + user entered data

Featured Replies

I have a small db that has several items listed. The user can select from a list of items and view the record detail. I would like to have a link on the record detail page that creates a form with that records information, Title, Desc. etc but also lets the user enter their name,email and then have that form sent to me. I can get all the way to generating the form with the specific record information on it plus the input for the email, name, but I can't get how to send it to me. I can send it but because it has not been added to any db the email I receive is blank. Is there another way to achieve this? I am using CDML tags to generate my pages. Thanks in advance.

Not with FM.

User has to send something to database and then you can in the same action send email. No post to database = no email.

When you send the email use a "-find". As the "-mailformat" file can contain CDML tags, this will allow you to use the same data as the form.

The person email address can go here:

eMail:<input type="text" name="-MailFrom" value="">

Their name could go in the Subject field:

Name:<input type="text" name="-MailSub" value="">

Hope this helps.
