You have to read carefully all the as code!
it’s just the arrow:

private function createPixelArrow(c:uint):Sprite
{
var t:Sprite = new Sprite();
t.graphics.beginFill(c, 1);
t.graphics.drawRect(0, 0, 1, 1);
t.graphics.drawRect(1, 1, 1, 1);
t.graphics.drawRect(2, 2, 1, 1);
t.graphics.drawRect(1, 3, 1, 1);
t.graphics.drawRect(0, 4, 1, 1);
t.graphics.endFill();
t.name = “pixelArrow_mc”;
return t;
}

and it is used in:
private function createSendButton():Sprite
……..
var ar:Sprite = createPixelArrow(sendButtonTextColor);
ar.x = 3;
ar.y = 4;
………
I think you can change or remove it without problems.

I have a simple question. How do I remove the little arrow on the ‘Send Message’ button. I’m referring to the one that looks like this >.

Ok, this question might be a little out of left field but,would anyone be able to point me in the direction on how to alter/write the php associated with this script to send the user information into a database as opposed to the email? Thanks in advance!

alright for some people who have been receiving the “1180 error call to a possible undefined method Font small var font:Font = new Font for line 240 and 370″ one way to try to fix it is by opening the source file (contact_form.fla), export the two library fonts that are stored, and insert them to whatever other fla file you are trying to embed this to. I was having the exact same problem, but this got it fixed. i know it’s a bit late…. but… someone might run into this problem in the future!

It is wonderfull and so clear written. Thanks for shareing it. I don’t know how you have the patience to answer the same questions!!!
My problem is : when I click CONTACT ME I see for a little moment “Sending message…” and later red “Server problems.” In this moment I see a new post on gmail notyfier. Gmail displays it correctly. My friend sended trial post to me with the same result.
I used AS version and chanded it a little. font=arial, embed=false. In polish language there is a lot of special fonts. I think arial is on every computer).
Now I added 2 fields and changed the x,y position on the side but i can’t use it until the 3 fields contact form will work correctly.

I will be so grateful for your help.
Sorry for my english. I’m a polish retired woman.
A trial version of this contact form is on

This question refers back to adding fields to the contact form. I read earlier that you said to just go through the code and duplicate what you had. I understand that part of it, however lets say I want to add a Subject Fiend. Will the php file need to be modified in order to accommodate the new subject field?

Thanks

I’m having the same problem with the smallFont and fontText issue. I’m very new to a lot of this and need some very specific instructions on how to “add those fonts to my library”. I have a site basically built so I just dropped the necessary code on the timeline and put the associated classes in their respective places.

I think it might work; however, I still may need to reposition the fields so they fit in with my design. Any help you could give me would be great.

I have what is I hope is a very simple question. I am very new to flash and am creating a flash website using AS 3.0 with help books, tutorials, and any other information I can find. I found this page and it is exactly what I am looking for. My question is how do I position the form so the registration point is not at 0,0. I have looked through the code but cant figure out which number I need to modify. Thanks in advance!

Thank you very much for your code and files. I will use them for personal use. May I suggest that you maybe explain that the files in the “deploy” folder need to be uploaded with out the folder and straight to server. At least that how it worked for me and when I had them in a folder it did not work. I don’t know how you have the patience to answer all these questions even some with AS3 tips. You are doing a great job, thanks.
