And for another value it will send same email that is test[at]test.com. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/send-email-based-on-value-selected-in-the-combo-box#post-4243 Sat, 10 Jan 2009 17:23:13 +0000 raj000 4243@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>I have a list of products that we sell listed in a combo box field. There are approximately 30 values in the combo box and increasing. When an entry is submitted, a notification is sent to <a href="mailto:sales@example.com.">sales@example.com.</a> For most of the products, the same email address would be notified. However, for a few of the products, maybe 2 or 3, the email notification will be sent to a different department. </p> <p>I have been following another thread on this subject -:</p> <p><a href="http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist?replies=10" rel="nofollow">http://www.appnitro.com/forums/topic/email-from-a-drop-downlist?replies=10</a></p> <p>This does not really serve my purpose because in the above code i need to define the email notification address for each option in the combo. I want to use the default email settings for the form for most of the options. I only want to modify the code when the email to be notified is different from the standard email notification setting. </p> <p>Please help . Thanks </p>
