Hey guys! I am working on a site, but am completely stuck on the contact page. I need to create a contact form, you know, the ususal, name, addy, phone, comment, etc.
Do you guys use any specific form, or template for this forms for flash??? Please hook it up...
Thanz!

i wouldn't use matt's formmail straight out of the box.
it receives it's recipient via an http var, so spammers can use it as a gateway to pipe tons of spam thru your server. it has a simple http-referrer check to try to prevent this, but it's trivial to fake it out. the recipient should be hard-coded in the script.

check yer mail, i just sent you a php form that I made a while ago. super simple, uses JS for field validation (you'll need to update this to match the form you create).
Nothing fancy but it works and it cannot get hijacked by spammers

i just typed this thang up, but joyride beat me to it. i'm sure his is better, this has no validation and i'm quite stoned at the moment

especially considering i closed the head tag at the bottom of the page

Matt's works good enough. No one is gonna bot your ass.
Use something like it. If you have a form, a bot can tackle it one way or another

I had one hijacked, AOL now has the domain listed as a known spammer, open relay or whatever. Which is why I made the form I have now. I really need to make/find a sexy one, because the js validation annoys me with the pop up.

you can use this to create the whole thing, or use it to get you started with a couple of fields and then expand upon it yourself:
