Hi,
I have a subscribe form, and when somebody new signs up, I would like it to
send a e-mail. I have a cfmail block here:
<cfmail from="#FORM.Email#"
to="my mail address"
subject="New Sign Up">
From: #form.name# (#form.email#)
New Subscrber:
#form.name#
#form.Email#
</cfmail>
below is the whole form. In the out put file, it writes all the information to
a database. Would it be better to put the cfmail part in the output file?
Thanks,
Johnny
