Confirmation Email Problem

Hi

I have created an ecommerce site using webassist extensions, but i have encountered problems using Universal email. I have 2 problems i really need help with, i have tried for a few weeks now to work it out. My first problem is with my Confirmation email, it sends the shipping address details and a link. So they can upload there work, problem is sometimes it works sometimes it will not. When i come to the Checkout form and fill in details then i go to confirm page which when clicked should send out an Confirmation email to the customer. But most of the time it does not send. Then if i `back-page` in the browser back to the checkout, i do not change any of the details that are already there from before. And click through the process again, then it will send?
My second problem is with my Upload page, theres fields for them to upload there files, and also a text field, and a comment box. It works fine at uploading the files, but any text in the text field and comment box do not send. I have added the files for you to view. Thanks for your help.

the code to send the email is at line 15 - 102. lines 103 - 234 set a bunch of session variables. The email uses the eCartCheckoutForm_email session variable as the to address.

The code that sets that session variable is at 118. When the email is trying to be sent, the session does not exist yet.


move the universal email code block so it comes after the code to set the session variables.

On the upload email, you have not done anything to set up the email body.

In the universal Email server behavior, select the option to create a file for the email message and select one of the templates, this will automatically loop through the form fields to include them in the email.

Hi Jason

The confirmation email now sends, but i get this printed above the page when i run it:

This post has been deleted.

this is caused by output between php tags.

the error sis reporting the cause of the problem around line 16 of the confirm page:

output started at /home/printivf/public_html/confirm.php:16

either there is a blank space or blank line after the closing php tag and before the opening php tag of the next code block.

see this thread for details:

Hi

Now it sends but theres no details within the email. I have added the files for you to view.

the email body uses the webassist/email/templates/Block.php file, make sure that file has been uploaded to the server.

Yes Email template is uploaded, sometimes it sends a confirmation email with the details. And sometimes it send the email but its blank, and just sends the details below without customer details.

this could happen if the checkout form is submitted with no data in it.

add server validation to ensure that the checkout form is filled out before submitting it.

see the following thread for details on adding validation to the checkout form:
