how do you set templateurl?

dont know how to set it on

Hi,

You create a directory in your webserver's document root, say called "templatedir".

Now, either change the setting in formmail.php from:

//$TEMPLATEURL = $SCHEME.$SERVER."/templatedir";  // a sample using your server 

to

$TEMPLATEURL = $SCHEME.$SERVER."/templatedir";  // a sample using your server 

or, leave that line as is, and create a new line like this (assuming your site is fred.com):

$TEMPLATEURL = "http://www.fred.com/templatedir";

Hi,

Our staff have been alerted to the error.

What did the alert say went wrong?

You'll need to ZIP the files to attach them to a forum post.

[jloyzaga]

Hi,

OK, if FormMail says it's sent you an alert and you haven't received it, then we need to solve that problem first.

Try the test alert feature:
http://www.yoursite.com/formmail.php?testalert=1

If you don't receive an email, then please run the mail test scripts from here:

Hi,

BTW, with TEMPLATEURL you have:

$TEMPLATEURL = "http://www.ecowash.com.au/franchiseereply/fran_reply.htm"; 

This is wrong. It should be a directory on your server, not a document, like this:

$TEMPLATEURL = "http://www.ecowash.com.au/franchiseereply"; 

The document to use is specified within the HTML form.

Hi,

The following error occurred in FormMail:
no_valid_recipients
**********
Error=The form has an internal error - no valid recipients were specified.

This alert message tells you that there's a disagreement in the "recipients" field in the form and the email addresses allowed by $TARGET_EMAIL in formmail.php.

Fix one or both so they agree, and you should get a form submission emailed OK.

Joe

It would have been better if I wasn't so stupid - its really very logical now that I see it working
