Re: auto responder

I have NOT found a "action.php" page in your site.

The thank you page, is the one that includes the php script that you have copied / pasted from the tutorilal. Open this page in BV and save it as "action". Set it's properties so that it gets published with .php extension. Publish and test your form.

Re: auto responder

One more question,

When I test the order page, I get a respond from my autoresponder. I'm suppose to have 2 msg.

1st msg is to thank them for subscribing to the newsletter. That works fine.

2nd msg is to download the pdf file that i've uploaded fm cpanel. That did not work. Instead of sending email to subcriber, i rec an email in my mail box.

I used 2 different email addy for 1st msg and 2nd msg.

Pls help

Re: auto responder

In the first message, the one that works ok, you need to include a link to your second email address, and explain them that in order to confirms their email address and receive the PDF they need to reply to this second email address.

However, this is NOT how it is usually done, i only showed you that it can be done, but the simplest thing would be to included the link to the PDF in the first email. If their email address is real, they recieve the link, if their email address is not real, they simply don't recieve it.

Re: auto responder

I took yr advise and placed the link to the first email addy. I've also included the flwg msg in my cpanel.

How come only http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/knockout/tooth was highlighted.

I wanted the entire text to be highlighted. http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/knockout/tooth kit brochure - laypeople(27jun2007) jpeg format.pdf. What did I do wrong?

Pls help.

Re: auto responder

The problem is that you have whitespaces (blanks) in your file name.

Do the following:

1. rename your PDF directly on the server, using BlueFTP or File Manager. Make it "tooth_kit_brochure.pdf" with underscores (no blank spaces).

2. Change the link in your autoresponder accordingly: http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/knockout/tooth_kit_brochure.pdf

Re: auto responder

Hi followed yr instructions. Auto responder works fine. Email sent out well however when click on the http://www.mytoothcaretips.com/knock...t_brochure.pdf error msg Webpage cannot be found.

Also, when I made changes to my Order Page, when I publish, the changes does not seem to happen. Why?

Pls help.

Re: auto responder

Did you actually upload the file (or renamed it) with this name ? if the link doesn't work, you have probably a typo in your file name or the folder is not correct.

Couls also be a permissions issue

Order page: probably your browser cacheing. Make sure you have published in the correct (public_html) folder.

Re: auto responder

Yes, uploaded the correct file name. Checked the typo and it's correct. Will try again.

Order page : How can I check that i hv published in the correct (public_html) folder?

Re: auto responder

I can't find a "knockout" folder on your site. Check again
