Text-field emails

[HostaDesigner]

I have flash 5 on a mac. In my site, I have a text field laid out for the purpose of users to type me an email. How do I get my "send" button to send their email that they typed in the text field to me without opening their browsers default email program (such as if I us the get URL action using the mailto:me@you.com). Thanks!

Mike

The tutorial included in Flash 4 deals with an email form.
You can also have a look at this one:

Ok. I still need help here. I've done countless hours of research to get this to work and still no luck. The temporary link to my "under construction" flash site is:

In the contacts page, If anyone has experience with getting the email form to work PLEASE help me!!!

Also, on the photos page, the first two thumbnails have actions assigned to them to have a box slide from the bottom left and display the plant name. On some computers, the box isn't shown. Instead you can see it from the very top of the screen as it fades out. (oldnewbie, this is what you were helping me out with a few weeks back).
For some reason, the setVariables of x and y position are not loading properly. Here is the script:

on (rollOver) {
setProperty ("nbADG", _x, "300"
setProperty ("nbADG", _y, "555"
tellTarget ("nbADG&quot {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}
}
on (rollOut) {
setProperty ("nbADG", _x, "300"
setProperty ("nbADG", _y, "555"
tellTarget ("nbADG&quot {
gotoAndPlay (7);
}
}
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay ("Abiqua Drinking Gourd", 1);
}

Again. I would appreciate any help.

I forgot to mention . . . there is a secret button in the lower left hand corner of my site to play the intro to the site.

Well... for the moment, can get pass the loading stage, with half a green dot (top left) and a input text box (Mike's... soon) in the middle of the screen. Can't get to the contacts' or photos' page in IE or NS on a PC!

The button to get to the contents page is invisible. It's just a white box with no borders on a white background. Move your mouse to the lower left corner of the screen. Ignore the text and the green dot. You'll find it there.
