flash contact form with php
Hi,
i have a flash contact form that is used for the user and a php that takes the data and sends it to the email i have specified. it works other than one glitch. it seems when i send it the email message reads oh no....! however i receive the email
the oh no (error message) is generated by a timer but i cant seem to figure it out.
The flash code is as follows
mail.php
