Tell a friend / LMP together
« on: February 07, 2008, 10:41:22 am »
I am trying to get my web page form that is hooked up to LMP to work with my tell a friend program and it is asking for some information that I am not sure I know what it is...

Screen shot is here...
http://www.something4u.com/Picture4.jpg

I assume it will be part of this...

http://www.example.com/lmp/signup.php>
<input type=hidden name=list value=28>

==========

But how will it know what list to send it with?
It has the email option that may be easier but I don't know if LMP has that option...If it does will it also do the first name?

Thank you

The first name field is named "fname".  The email address field, "email".

You're right, the "list" variable may post a problem.  Perhaps you could append it to the script URL, ie:

http://example.com/mail/signup.php?list=1

That would only work if the programmer of your tell-a-friend script had considered this possibility.  Are they, perhaps, available to be contacted?

Looking again at your screenshot it looks like you can specify additional variables at the bottom.  So you would simply enter "list" as the variable and "28" as the value. Also, you may need to remove "http://" from your signup URL as directed.
