Hi there,
Firstly, you should never have to even open phorm.php and you certainly
shouldn't be thinking of changing it unless you REALLY know what you are
doing!
Secondly, Phorm is a very powerful program, and you can't expect to just
understand what is going on by skim reading a readme file. You need to read
the documentation carefully. This forum is not a substitute for reading the
documentation. If you put in the effort you'll find that you'll understand
Phorm better.
Okay, create a plain text file, and have it stored in the same directory as
the config file (form specific or global). It should contain the body of the
message for the e-mail. In this message, you can include information from the
form by using variable substitutions, as described in the documentation.
E.g.
-- BEGIN: respond.txt --
Dear {{Name}},
Thank you for filling out the form. The {{product}} you requested, {{title}},
will be sent to you at the following address:
{{address}}
Regards,
Foo
Bar Ltd.
-- END: respond.txt --
Now in your config file:
$PHORM_RESPOND = "respond.txt";
$PHORM_RESFROM = "sales@xxxxxxx";
$PHORM_RESUBJ = "Order Confirmation";
The responder will be sent to the e-mail address in PHORM_FROM, so you need to
have the e-mail field on your form:
<input name="PHORM_FROM" ... >
you also need to declare any PHORM_ variables in your config file, so add the
line:
$PHORM_FROM = ph_DECLARE;
to your config file.
