Hey, love your newsletter script. However, I have one question. Is there a way (perhaps some source code you can provide) to insert into the includethis.php that requires a user to enter a valid email address? As of right now, somebody can type anything in there and it says it’s submitted successfully. I just want to make sure they’re typing in email addresses only and not just anything. Thanks.
Greate work!
U r greate to share the script !
Add “Ideas Hut” to the list…quick quick so that we may then add “IT Professionals Network of Pakistan” to this list too
Your Newsletter software is superb. I was using the 2.4.3 version. Now with the batching of sending mails (in 2.5.1) through my own smtp server things work really great. With a few small changes I think the software will be even better:
- As mentioned above validating the input is a step forward.
- I think it is also a good idea to send people an email with a confirmation link, to validate that they are in fact the owner of the submitted address. - When a user unsubscribes he or she sees the complete Open Newsletter interface. I think it is better to minimalize this so you don’t freigthen people with the amount of irrelevant options.
- Possibly better when someone clicks the unsubscribe link to automatically enter the email address so people do not have to fill this out themselves.
Very nice work, keep it up!
Hi! In order at question made from Tim… you can add the following code after line 18 (before “else”) in include.php.
if (!eregi(”^[a-z0-9][_\.a-z0-9-]+@([a-z0-9][0-9a-z-]+\.)+([a-z]{2,4})”, $_GET["email"]))
{
$result = 1;
break;
}
In this case “eregi” is a PHP function used to verify the email address validity.
I hope to have given a valid aid.
