    Default EMail straight from Flash

    Hi, hope you can help!

    I have created a support system that will tell the user (by a green or red
    light) that a range of devices work (by pinging them from vbscipt).

    What I want now, is when a device suddenly becomes offline, I will be e-mailed
    straight from within Flash.

    I've tried using the Mailto: thing in GetURL, but that only pops a outlook
    screen up, I want it to actually send the e-mail.

    Can I do this in flash, or will I need VB-script?

    Thanks - Andy

    Default Re: EMail straight from Flash

    Basically this can be achieved by sending the necessary data to any
    serverside script that will deal with the sending of the mail. In Flash use
    the LoadVars Object for instance to collect the data and send them to that
    script. Bottomline is, that it cannot be done with Flash alone unless you
    can live with that outlook popup, which for obvious reasons is not an option
    here.
