hi, I'm pretty new to coldfusion. But since my server only supports this and nothing else i can only learn my way through this. I need a online enquiry form where there's different subjects user can select from drop down menu pertaining to enquiry like: Product Enquiry, General Enquiry and Sales Enquiry. whichever the user select will have the form submitted sent the results to different email addresses. Eg. if i select product enquiry and enter my details in the form, press submit, I will be receiving the form results at email1@test.com. And if i select sales enquiry.. form results will be sent to email2@test.com. how do i go about doing it? Really need help on this.. i've been searching for tips online but no tutorials available..
Okay! Tell me have you hardcoded the values in the selct form as: <select name="a"> <option value="products">productsenquiry</option> <option value="sales">salesenquiry</option> </select> Now in you action perform somthing like this: <cfif form.a IS 'Products'> <cfset form.useemail = "email@test.com"> <cfelseif form.a IS 'sales'> <cfset form.useemail = "email2@test.com"> <cfelse> <cfset form.useemail = "anyotherquery@test.com"> </cfif>
hi gavy! ok im not sure if this is what u're looking for.. Currently in my basic form the select section is <FORM action="http://www.test.com/request.cfm" method="POST" name="inforequest" <select name="recipient" class="small"> <option value="Please Select" selected="selected">Please Select</option> <option value="General">General Enquiries</option> <option value="Product">Product</option> <option value="Sales">Sales</option> <option value="Sample">Sample Request</option> <option value="Technical">Technical Support</option> </select> and my .cfm has this: p><cfmail to="request@test.com" from="Website Form <request@test.com>" subject="Website Information Request">
here it is what i have understood: <FORM action="http://www.test.com/request.cfm" method="POST" name="inforequest" <select name="recipient" class="small"> <option value="Please Select" selected="selected">Please Select</option> <option value="General">General Enquiries</option> <option value="Product">Product</option> <option value="Sales">Sales</option> <option value="Sample">Sample Request</option> <option value="Technical">Technical Support</option> </select> in your action page: <cfif form.recipient IS 'Product'> <cfset form.useemail = "Product@test.com"> <cfelseif form.recipient IS 'Sales'> <cfset form.useemail = "Sales@test.com"> <cfelse> <cfset form.useemail = "anyotherquery@test.com"> </cfif> <cfmail to="request@test.com" from="Website Form <#form.useemail#>" subject="Website Information Request"> This will trigger the email from the rspective email address let me know if u stuck again
thanks gavy! at first it couldn't work.. then i figure out and amend to <cfmail to="#form.useemail#" from="Website Form <#form.useemail#>" subject="Website Information Request"> then it's ok. Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
