I'm 24 years old web coder from Slovakia and I study new media at Academy of Fine Arts. I like spending time with my friends, but the most of the time I'm working in a front of the PC, so I also like coding and learning new things - i love jQuery. And ... movies, strawberries, coffee, diving, ... from a real world.

There’s no documentation for the source. I really enjoyed the developed solution but I just can’t be sucesseful on installing it.

First of all…sorry for my english!
I am using this FANTASTIC module on my site, and I think I have found a bug.
When you click in an email checkbox, click again to unmark it, and mark it one more time, the email will be sent two times to this recipient.(a lot of mails if you repeat this process).
Is there any way to prevent this email adress duplication?

http://iamlion.com O’Ryan
mm yes i noticed this too it seems as tho a function to clear the list and send a fresh one to avoid duplicating emails was forgotten.
search for the serializeSelection() fuction in your code
and add var emails = new Array();
right after the function begins before the category array is set

Carlos Maldonado
Thanks this codeline fix the bug! and this works perfectly! :D

This is great!
I just have a bug here, when i’m click on the sent-email, i have this message
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/newsletter/index.php on line 954

it’s not a bug. You need to install the sql code first

Great nl code. I just tested online and the admin works great. However i have difficulties setting up the front end. I changed the database settings and upload all on my server but doesnt send email adress to the database. Did i miss something ?

Does anyone know how to correct this:
Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/site/public_html/newsletter/index.php on line 786
Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/site/public_html/newsletter/index.php on line 798
Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/site/public_html/newsletter/index.php on line 802
Warning: mysql_free_result(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/site/public_html/newsletter/index.php on line 806
It seems to be caused by this:
// LOAD DATA INTO ARRAYS
$result = mysql_query(“SELECT * from $table_categories”);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$emails_result = mysql_query(“SELECT * from $table_emails WHERE category = “.$row['id']);
while ($subrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($emails_result)) {
$row['emails'][] = $subrow;
}
mysql_free_result($emails_result);
$categories[] = $row;
}
mysql_free_result($result);
$result = mysql_query(“SELECT * from $table_sent”);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$sent[] = $row;
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>
Any help would be appreciated…

I have made a fix for the front page of the module. You can now implement a newsletter suscription form in the front end of your website easily. I have also added extra features like email validation, check database for duplicate emails before submitting and alert box to handle messages. You can find the fix here http://www.thoughtsmall.com/free-ajax-newsletter-script-front-end-fix/

Hi – great job with this script. Really like it and hoping to use it on my site.
I do however have a problem when trying to amend the template for the newsletter. It doesnt seem to want to accept any changes and none of the images are showing on the emails that are sent out. Is there something simple I need to adjust to get these images recognised?
Thanks
JD

ray
Images not showing – please advise on your solution!
thanks

JD
ignore my post – have figured it out!
thanks
