Hi Torsten,
Many ways to reach your goal. Depends on how much control you want on the process, but I would say, pick the method that you can work out the quickest.. :)
Catching a value from a HTML form is easy, they come in as request parameters. You can do something like:
<map:parameter name="body"
value="{request-param:nameoffieldwithbodytext}"/>I haven't got around using CForms and jx, so can't tell how fields are passed in that case...
Grtz, Geert
Hi all,
I have a quite straight forward problem, but I was yet unable to find a solution.
All I want is to have the website visitor enter some information into a form and have Cocoon email this information somewhere using the Sendmail action.
I have a matcher in the sitemap which is called from the flowscript, such as:
<map:match pattern="mitgliedsantrag_bestaetigung.jx"> <map:act type="sendmail"> <map:parameter name="smtphost" value="localhost"/> <map:parameter name="from" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"/> <map:parameter name="to" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"/> <map:parameter name="body" value="... what should I put here ???"/> </map:act> </map:match>
This is called from a flowscript.js:
cocoon.sendPage("mitgliedsantrag_bestaetigung.jx", bizdata);
The JavaScript array bizdata contains the information collected in a form.
Am I trying the wrong aproach to this?
Bonus question:
Should I rather set up a pipeline which builds the mail body? I could use the JX generator to achieve this. But then the question would be: How do I send the result of a pipeline in an email?
Regards, Torsten
