Default Email Submit Form - 11-17-2004 , 05:48 PM






Does anyone know how to actually make the submit button work. All I want is for people to be able to input , name, email and phone number and press submit and send it to my email...

It is not that easy. It requires active code (scripting) to submit your email
data to an SMTP mail server. It is straightforward if you are willing to learn
some basic scripting commands using VBScript, ColdFusion, etc. and have the
corresponding server support for the script. You will need to know your SMTP
server address (sometimes it is simply "localhost"). There have been a number
of posts on this topic, so you might search back in time. Or you can pick up a
book on your chosen scripting language. Just browse the book to make sure it
has a mail example. For example, "Programming ColdFusion" (O Reilley).

Have a look at hotscripts.com

You should find plenty there that will do what you want.

Have a look at your hosts' FAQ / Help pages. Most hosts supply their
customers with a generic FormMail script to process your form. This link
may help you as well
