Im having some issues getting my flash contact form to communicate with my form.PHP I have been scouring tutorials but im just not getting what exactly goes into the PHP file. My variables are different from the tutorials I have seen. This is what I have

I guess my main question is how do I set up the PHP file so that it can work with my flash files?

noone can help you unless they are familiar with that php script or they are willing to check that php script or you inform us what variables it expects.

because it doesn't look like anyone is doing the first two why don't you tell us. almost certainly it is spelled out in the comments of that php script, at it beginning, what variables it needs. what are they?

<?php
$eName=$_POST['visitor_name'];
$eEmail=$_POST['visitor_email'];
$subject = 'A Message from a Bodyshop client';
$eComments=$_POST['visitor_comments'];

$toaddress="my@email.com";

if(mail($toaddress,$subject,$message,"From: ".$name." <".$email.">")){
$Name='';
$Email='';
$subject='';
$Comm ='';
$Phone =";
echo "&response=passed";
} else {
echo "&response=failed";

I dont have the book or software so I am doing this on my main project:
I basically cut and pasted the code to frame 1 because I dont have a load date variable so everything resides on Frame 1

I get several output errors:

***ERROR*** frame 1 line 2 ' { ' expected
function checkForm() :Boolean {

**ERROR** frame=1 line 26:
unexpected ' } ' encountered
}

how do I handle this so I dont get these error messages

Below is my contact form code. It works beautifully. You may have to modify it some to achieve your ultimate goal but it is very simple and easy to understand.
