dear all
I am looking at using URLRequest and php to configure my app to send
an email by sending a post to a form and then the form sending me an
email. I have very little understanding of this process and any help
would be appreciated. I know this has been discussed here before,
but I think my issues are much more basic to previous posts, and I
need help.
I have setup a form called phpForm.html with one message field, the
html code is as follows:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="sendInfo.php">
Message:<br />
<textarea name="message" rows="15" cols="40">
</textarea><br />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
now my code sendInfo.php is:
<?php
$message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;
mail( "email@hidden", "Test Message", $message );
?>
and this works when I open the page in safari and send the form
now in my code I have the following:
-( IBAction ) sendMail:( id )sender
{
NSString *post = @"message=testing";
NSData *postData = [post dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding
allowLossyConversion:YES];
NSString *postLength = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", [postData
length]];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] init]
autorelease];
[request setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.qu-s.eu/
phpForm.html"]];
[request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];
[request setValue:postLength forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Length"];
[request setValue:@"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"];
[request setHTTPBody:postData];
}
unfortunately nothing seems to happen. Do I have to communicate with
the php script directly, and if so how?
Thanks
Reza
