Textpattern Tags inside of <txp:php> tags?

I have a simple “if form is submitted email it out, otherwise display the form” static page that I’m trying to code up in TXP. (Yes, I know about zem_contact_reborn but it’s doesn’t do everything I need, so I’m trying to use phpMailer.)

However, it seems that TextPattern does not like any textpattern tags (i.e. <txp:output_form form=“header”>)within <txp:php> </txp:php> tags…

Simple question, how do I properly code the following?

<txp:php>
if($_POST['sndEmail']) {

require("class.phpmailer.php");

$mail = new PHPMailer();

$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = "myrelay";

$mail->From = "formmailer@mydomain.com";
$mail->FromName = "MyDomain Form Mailer";
$mail->AddAddress("user@mydomain.com", "User");

$mail->WordWrap = 80;                                
$mail->IsHTML(true);                                 

$mail->Subject = "New Interest In MyCompany From " . $_POST['txtFullName'];
$mail->Body    = "<strong>Name</strong>: " . $_POST['txtFullName'] . "<br />" .
				 "<strong>Email</strong>: " . $_POST['txtEmail'] . "<br />" .
				 "<strong>Comments</strong>: " . $_POST['txtComments'] . "<br />";
$mail->AltBody = "Name:\t" . $_POST['txtFullName'] . "\n" .
				 "Email:\t" . $_POST['txtEmail'] . "\n" .
				 "Comments:\t" . $_POST['txtComments'];

$mail->Send();

echo <<<EOT
<txp:output_form form="header" />
<txp:output_form form="nav" />
<h1>Contact Us</h1>
<p>Thank you for your interest in MyCompany!  We will get back to you very soon.</p>
<txp:output_form form="footer" />
EOT;

}
</txp:php>

<txp:php>
else {

echo <<<EOT
<txp:output_form form="header" />
<txp:output_form form="nav" />
<h1>Contact Us</h1>
<p>Please use the form below to contact us and share any comments and/or questions you have for us.  We will get back to you ASAP.</p>
<form class="contact_form" name="contact_form" method="post" action="/contact">
	<label for="txtFullName">Name:
		<input class="formfield" name="txtFullName" type="text" id="txtFirstName" />
	</label>
	<label for="txtEmail">E-Mail Address:
		<input class="formfield" name="txtEmail" type="text" id="txtEmail" />
	</label>
	<label for="txtEmail">Comments:
		<textarea cols="40" rows="6" class="formfield" name="txtComments" id="txtComments"></textarea>
	</label>
	<input name="sndEmail" type="submit" id="sndEmail" value="Send" />
</form>
<div class="clear"></div>
<txp:output_form form="footer" />
EOT;

}
</txp:php>

Any help is appreciated!

Re: Textpattern Tags inside of <txp:php> tags?

ZCR does everything your code block does:

<txp:zem_contact thanks_form="thanks" to="recipient@example.com">
  <txp:zem_contact_email />
  <txp:zem_contact_text label="Phone" min=7 max=15/>
  <txp:zem_contact_textarea label="Your question" />
  <txp:zem_contact_submit label="Send" />
</txp:zem_contact>

Check the plugin help for all the tags and attributes.

Re: Textpattern Tags inside of <txp:php> tags?

Thanks.

I figured it out what I was doing wrong! Just had to contain everything within one <txp:php> </txp:php> block. I was splitting it up into two blocks.
