I am trying to make a contact form with eform on my site.. i have read tutorials in the wiki and documentation but followed this small tutorial on one of the posts in the forum but i am getting an error when sending the email. I have followed the tutorial step by step.
Step 1. Create the form and place it in a chunk called ’eFeedbackForm’
<p><span style="color:#900;">[+validationmessage+]</span></p>
<form method="post" action="[~[*id*]~]">
<input type="hidden" name="formid" value="feedbackForm" />
<p><label accesskey="n">Your Name</label>
<input type="text" name="Name" maxlength="60" eform="Your Name::1" /></p>
<p><label accesskey="e">Your Email Address</label>
<input type="text" name="email" size="40" maxlength="40" eform="Your Email Address:email:1" /></p>
<label accesskey="s">Subject</label>
<select name="subject">
<option value="Feedback">Website feedback</option>
<option value="Support request">Support request</option>
<option value="Feature Request">Feature request</option>
</select>
<p><label accesskey="c">Comments</label>
<textarea cols="40" rows="10" name="comments" eform="Comments:html:1"></textarea></p>
<p><label">Would you like to be on our mailling list?</label>
<input type="radio" name="list" value="Yes" eform="Mailling List::0:" /> Yes
<input type="radio" name="list" value="No" /> No </p>
<p>
Please enter the verification code below: (to prevent spam)
<img src="[+verimageurl+]" alt="verification code" />
<input type="text" name="vericode" size="20" />
</p>
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send Feedback"></p>
</form>
step 2 Created an email template (the report template) and place it in a chunk. ’eFeebackReport’
<p>This is a response sent by [+Name+] using the feedaback form on the website. The details of the mesage follow below:</p>
<table>
<tr valign="top"><td>Name:</td><td>[+Name+]</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td>Email:</td><td>[+email+]</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td></td><td>[+subect+]</td></tr>
<tr valign="top"><td>comments:</td><td>[+comments+]</td></tr>
</table>
<p>Would [+name+] like to be on our mailing list? <strong>[+list+]</strong></p>
<p>You can use this link to reply: <a href="mailto:[+email+]?subject=RE:[+subject+]">[+email+]</a></p>
Step 3 Created the thank you page with id=34
step 4 This is the snippet i placed in my template.
[[eForm? &formid=`feedbackForm` &to=`
[email protected]` &tpl=`eFeedbackForm` &report=`eFeedbackReport` &gotoid=`34` &vericode=`1`]]
I get this error when i try to send a email ...
