Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Zem, soz but here is another idea. Could the “Email enquiry sent” message be a tag, so you can specify where on a page it’s displayed.
For example: If the form is several scrolls down a page and it’s submitted the page redisplays un scrolled, so the “Email enquiry sent” is not seen by the user (unless they scroll down).
From a usability point of view the user is missing the feedback that the message has been sent. Thanks again, Lee.

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Indeed a useful plugin!
However, I can’t get it to output scandinavian caracters correctly. Is this not supported, or is it possible i need to confugure something on the server to get it working.
when i send a test message like this:
æ (aelig)
ø (oslash)
å (aring)
the recieved messagebody look like this:
æ (aelig)
ø (oslash)
Ã¥ (aring)
edit: textile seemed to interfere a bit with this post converting the part with the received messagebody. dispalys corret now.

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
sorry for bumping, but it would be helpful to know if anyone got this plugin working with input in other languages than english, or if it is supposed to do that at all.

Wait, so is this plugin the most expensive textpattern related thing to date?

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Krik,
The plugin doesn’t know anything about i18n. Nor do I, come to think of it.
What happens if you set Textpattern to send email comments to the author, and enter similar characters in a comment?

The same characters in the emailed comments displays corectly.

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Does Textpattern set the encoding-type of the email perhaps, while your contact form doesn’t? Just a guess. Could be any number of things. I remember when there were only 255 characters in the whole wide world.

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Yeah, it’s probably something simple like that. Looking into it.

Re: [outdated] zem_contact, flexible mailto form
Zem, any chance of implementing a tag to redirect to a “thank you” page after successful submission? Thanks, lee.
