    Hello,

    I have site with Network Solutions. They have php 5.

    1- How do I know if they have (GD and Freetype support).

    2- I am using Habari (a wordpress like blog), would I be able to use your contact form with it? it has its own way of setting up the page and such.

    3- I would like to download the Fee based contact form, I think it is $15. Is it also the one that allows me to add additional fields or this is another version

    4- I am setting my site for Habari and php, do I need to do anything else? I am hoping to just use your php files. I know enough php to get my site going but I don't know how to do the GD/Freetype stuff.

    5- Would I be able to test locally on my PC, I have Wampserver installed (the latest)

    Thanks,
    Aladdin

    1- How do I know if they have (GD and Freetype support).
    Create a file with the below content and upload it to your server and run it:



    If there's a section on GD, then GD libraries are installed.

    2- I am using Habari (a wordpress like blog), would I be able to use your contact form with it? it has its own way of setting up the page and such.
    I doubt because I have problems getting the form to work in wordpress. You can however have the form set up outside your blog directory and then include a link to the form in your blog.

    3- I would like to download the Fee based contact form, I think it is $15. Is it also the one that allows me to add additional fields or this is another version
    The fee based form enables you to furnish me with the details regarding the additional fields you require. I'll then add those fields to the basic form and send you the customized version

    5- Would I be able to test locally on my PC, I have Wampserver installed (the latest)
    Yes you can, as long as GD/PHP and PHP sendmail functions are enabled.

    Thanks for quick response, I will test the host setup for compatibility.
    I don't think Habari wil be an issue then if I do what you recommend.

    I will let you know how it turns out.

    Oh, that fee based version, I gather it is the one that it is secure, right? I mean, it will prevent SQL insertion/hijacking, right?

    Thank you so much for taken the time to answer my questions.

    aladdin: I don't think Habari wil be an issue then if I do what you recommend.
    Like I told you, you can install the form outside of the blog directory or you can check for contact form plugins for Habari.

    aladdin: Oh, that fee based version, I gather it is the one that it is secure, right? I mean, it will prevent SQL insertion/hijacking, right?
    Yes definitely. It'll be the same form but with added fields. And BTW, there is no SQL injection possibilities as there are no databases involved.

    Hi Vishal

    I've had some trouble getting my contact page php script to work, I think because of Magic Quotes being disabled on the hosting server. So I tried yours and it works. However I need the fields changing and a couple adding in (including 3 radio buttons)

    Can you email me your direct address? I'd like to send you the current contact page we need so you can see what it looks like and to tell me if you can set your form page up to match it?

    Many Thanks
    Harvey

    Just check the contact-config.php file.

    I am a basic html user so forgive me for what may be a silly question. The instructions for Method II indicate changing the variable '$where_included ' but it is not on the 'contact-config.php' script you provide. Am I missing something?

    Please check properly. It is in the IMPORTANT section (after $subject_prefix). I do hope you have downloaded the latest version.

    Is it possible to pull these values and have them included in the email I received from my web site?

    Browser: [$HTTP_USER_AGENT]

    IP Address: [$REMOTE_ADDR]

    Sure it can be done. If you know PHP it is pretty easy to add these values to the email message.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm not a PHP pro. I just know some of the basics. Certainly not enough to dig through contact.php and contact-config.php and figure out what goes where. Looking at the files, I've got an idea where it would go but no idea how to implement it. I don't want a whole complete custom version.. just tell me what code goes where. What's that going to cost me? [​IMG]

    5 days ago, I contacted you through that site as you requested. Haven't heard anything back. Should I do it again?
