email [gh] and attachments

hi all,

i have a problem with the email [gh] modul. i would send an email with more then one attachments. the files are on the server. the user can choose the files with a select box.

in the submit event i load the select-box-array and make the attachments-links (like /var/web/hp/file/xxx.xxx,/var/web/hp/file/xx2.xxx, etc.). this string comes in a form->data-hiddenbox. now i write this hiddenbox in the email [gh] - attachments options (like {hiddenbox})

the email comes to me, but without attachment. wenn i take the attachments-links from the debbuging-box and take this in the email[gh]-attachments-options, then i receive the email with attachment.

what make i wrong?

thanks

sorry for the bad english i hope you understand it.

Hi Brani,

Please drag a Debugger action into the On Submit event, then submit the form and post the debug - including the 'dummy emails' results here.

Note: if you are using the Easy Wizard you may need to switch to the Advanced Wizard to do this; if you want to continue to use the Easy Wizard please make a copy of your form first and add the Debugger action to the copy.

Bob

email [gh] - File Attachment = {hidanhang}

when i take the [hidanhang] results and write it manuelly in die attachments option then i become the files.

Hi Brani,

The action can't handle a list of paths in a single form parameter like this. (I guess that it could be made to but I never thought about it.)

You can put each attachment into a separate form variable.

 [hidanhang1] => /var/www/PFAD/20120802111524_wagner.pdf,
[hidanhang2] => /var/www/PFAD/20120802111544_IMG_0642.JPG,
[hidanhang3] => /var/www/PFAD/20120802112123_Tagesplan.pdf

and use {hidanhang1},{hidanhang2},{hidanhang3}. That should work OK.

But if you have these is hidden inputs are they fixed values? If so then you can use /var/www/PFAD/20120802111524_wagner.pdf, /var/www/PFAD/20120802111544_IMG_0642.JPG, /var/www/PFAD/20120802112123_Tagesplan.pdf which you know works.

the user can choose his files. so i must implement a dynamic system.

why i can write (manuel) more then one files in the file attachments string, but when i link it to a variable it not working .. mmhh.. 😢

its dosent work, too ;(
perhaps its not work becouse the hidanhang1-3 variable is loaded in the submit-event?

it works with this workarround:

in the email file attachment i wrote /var/PFAD/{hidanhang1},/var/PFAD/{hidanhang2} etc
in the submit event i load the file-data (like this file.pdf) and load it in the hiddenbox-variable (like hidanhang1).

why it works i dont now. 😛
