Default how to submit an email..?? - 09-17-2003 , 03:03 AM






How can i create a web page so that it will have a form where someone
can type in their email address and then choose to click a submit (or
cancel !) button?

How do i get this info emailed to me? (i'm creating a mailing list for
the site's regular visitors u c)

TIA
Steve

Here's a useful link on how to code the HTML for a feedback form:

http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp

You need to ask your ISP about what to put in the "action" attribute. Most
will offer some kind of form-to-email script for use in your web pages, but
there are various different scripts out there so you need to find out what
is supported.

Alternatively, you could use a free forwarding service like one of the
following:

http://freedback.com/
http://www.response-o-matic.com/
http://formmail.to/

Hope this helps.

Phil

I've got an old power mac setup as a web server, so i've no need to
contact the isp but i'm going to take a look at the code i've just
grabbed from the above link.
