Title: ecards: sending yields "invalid email address" every time.
Post by: NotePad on August 30, 2007, 09:48:56 AM
HI,

trying to send ecards, (i'm logged in as admin) and no matter who I try to send to, I get "invalid email address" as an error message. 

Is admin not able to send postcards when logged in?

thanks!!

What are the addresses you are using?

Hi Nibbler,

another complication has come up that side-tracked me a bit.  however, it may be related to the main issue, possibly an IE glitch.

IE6 is now kicking me out of my installation.  What happens is I Log in - either as admin or user, the "continue" sign appears - as though I am "in"... then it goes directly back to the login screen as though I had never logged in.

Fortunately, I have Opera installed, and I can log in fine with Opera.  Also, I tried under "admin" to send e-cards using Opera, no problem.  Seems that all these problems were generated by IE6.

One e-card related glitch that IS reproduced on Opera is this: when you click the "alternate link if e-card does not display properly" in the e-card email, it renders a blank screen in IE6 and an error call as such in Opera 9.1:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: html_entity_decode() in /home/httpd/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs/gallery/displayecard.php on line 43

thanks for any further comments!

Sending emails happens server-sided, not client-sided. That's why I doubt that the browser is to blame. Do as Nibbler suggested. Posting a link to your gallery might help as well.
