can't get good or bad templates to work...

[skmember]

Hello,

I'm new to php (but not to other languages).

I've been able to get the formmailer to work - great program by the way.

Problem: can't get the good or bad templates to work.... error is something like: failed to open stream: No such file or directory and Error=Failed to process template "success.html"......

In searching the forums, it was suggested to try the.... testurlopen.php....here are the results:
PHP version is: 4.3.11
Safe mode is: Off (this is good!)
URL open failed: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found

Does this mean it's a problem with my hosting service?

Thank you in advance

Hi,

URL open failed: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found

Restriction - yes. "Problem" - depends on your perspective.

I would say there is a problem because there really is no reason why a PHP should not be able to open a URL.

However, this will only stop your templates from working if you use $TEMPLATEURL in FormMail.

If you use $TEMPLATEDIR, instead, specifying a directory (a directory doesn't being with "http:", BTW), then templates should work.

Use the http://www.yourdomain/formmail.php?testalert=1 feature to find our the correct directory path for your document root (and, hence, your template directory).
