Publisher review:FormHandler is a mailscript that runs on PHP. FormHandler is a mailscript that runs on PHP.
The FormHandler package is a set of scripts which handle the input of a form. There are a lot of scripts made for this job, but none of them fits all jobs or extensible to fit all jobs.
This object-oriented set of scripts has different modules and is easily extensible with new modules (in about 50 lines of code). This makes it the perfect package for ALL (standalone) jobs handling forms.
Basic functionality
Basic functionality consists of checking some of the input fields, sending the data to a specified person and displaying a result page.
But the basic functionality also includes a mechanism of dynamically loading and executing different modules in different runlevels.
Because all modules are loaded dynamically, the performance is VERY good.
It takes to much time to sum up all (possible) modules, so I only mention a set of working options:
Modules and modularity
- Required-module: some input fields are required, otherwise give an error
- Fieldcheck-module: define regular expressions that must match the input
- Template-modules: use templates for mail, display, error, reply, etc.
- MailAttach-module: let people upload a file and attach it to the mailed form data
- Reply-module: automatically send a reply if an email-input field was entered by a visitor
- SetCookie-module: set cookies on some fields, so when people retry the form there values are filled in.
- Referer-module: based on the HTTP_REFERER you can decide from what systems you allow or deny to call the script.
The set of scripts is completely Object Oriented, which makes it very easy to add new or change existing functionality. All modules can be loaded in dynamically. Even the same installation can be called from different forms with different modules.
