E-mailing creator of an item with specific subject

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 8

Hi all,

 

I'm building a "E-bay like" app where people can try to sell stuff.

There are 2 screens: a input screen and a overview screen that shows all current items.

The problem is in the overview screen:

This screen has 2 gallery's, one is a overview of all items and the second shows all the details of the, in gallery one selected item. 

When people click the button to place their bid or send a reaction a popup message pops up with a couple textfields.

Label1: their own name - defined by User().FullName

Label2: their bid 

Label 3: their message to the creator

When pressing the send button I would like them to send the info that they've filled in to the original creator of the item that their interested in.

The current syntax is like this:

Launch("mailto:" & glryOverzicht.Selected.created by.email & "?subject=Reactie op advertentie " & Text(DataCardValue39.Text)&"&body=Reactie door: " & txtReactieNaam & "%0D%0A" & "Bod: " & txtReactieBod & "%0D%0A" & "Bericht: " & txtReactieBericht & "%0D%0A" & "%0D%0A" & "%0D%0A");
Reset(txtReactieBericht);
//Reset(txtReactieNaam);
Reset(txtReactieBod);
Set(FormattedNum1,"");
Set(varShowMsgReageer, false)

 

I would also like to have the subject to reference to the title of the selected item. Right now it referres to a DataCardValue, but that one doesn't exist anymore and needs to be replaced with that title.

 

Can anyone help me out with this these issues?

 

Kind regards.

    Hi @stefanhems ,

     

    I am thinking you have only 1 Gallery to list all the items and a Form to display detail of the selected item.

     

    So, OnSelect of the button which could open the popup need to use Set function to store all the info from the Form's data card values first. 

     

    Second, OnSelect of the send button you could store other info that in the popup labels using Set functions as well.

     

    At last, use all the variables to replace the parameters in your syntax.

     

    Hope this helps.
