In the 'Job Order' is a JavaScript area. The Send Email function may be seen which collects a set of values and transfers it to the 'sendEmail server' function, which sends it as a 'json' request to the server.

In the 'Job Order' is a PHP area. How to use the Ajax class had been explained in previous tutorials but just a brief touch on it again. [00:14:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m47s) Here is the input(ajax input) where the controller has to be set up . In the controller there is 'sendEmail' class that was defined in this field (see video).

Looking at the code, again this is the task 'sendEmail', it triggers the task and checks for those values, then transfers it to this method 'sendMail' which is in the model. Go to Models and to Ajax. Scroll down to the 'sendEmail'. [00:15:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h15m47s) This is a Custom Script. In closing this, the Ajax method can be seen. This is another Custom method which had been written by VDM, it's called sendEmail, it gets the 'mail', the 'HTML' and the 'type'. It it does the necessary cleansing etc. [00:16:14](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h16m14s) The Email Helper is requested. Then the 'Send' method is used and the variables are transfered. Then set the 'result'. If the result is 'true', [00:16:38](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h16m38s) the user is notified, otherwise he receives the 'error'.<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< In the 'Job Order' is a PHP area.

This email body is of great help to build the email and it ensures that it contains the necessary HTML etc.(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h17m15s) The HTML and subject can be passed to it and it simply adds the subject to the email [00:17:15] and the necessary places as well as the body($body[]_$html) in the necessary place, and gets send in a appropriate way. A custom method is passed which gets the data from the Ajax and then sends it. [00:17:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h17m43s) That's a quick tutorial on how to implement sending emails through your component, using the Email Helper Class. The Email Helper Class is available on GitHub in the Component Builder.
I'm also using this email body to help me build the email because I want to make sure that it got all the necessary HTML and stuff. You can pause the video and type that out if you like. This is the email body that I usually use. It simply adds the subject to the email, [00:17:15](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h17m15s) the necessary places as well as the body in the necessary place that it gets send in a way that's more appropriate. That all is happening right here. That is what I'm passing in here. A custom method which gets the data from the ajax and then sends it off. [00:17:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp6mMUTOF2Y&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h17m43s) That's a quick tutorial on how to implement sending emails through your component, using the email helper class. The email helper class is available on GitHub in the component builder. If you feel that our implementation lacks some professional help then please do make a commit to quest or send me an email. We'll gladly update an improved this class, although I think we followed all the necessary standard and requirements to make it useful to everyone.
