Replace brackets with carats (I used them so as not to confuse some email clients). [!-- use this method to send the form to a mailto --] [FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; ENCTYPE="text/plain"] A couple of other points. Standard computing practices dictate that first and last name fields each be 20 characters in length. If you want a middle name then add another 20 characters. So a 30 character name field is to short. The email address field should be at least 64 characters in length. DNS allows labels to be 63 characters with a maximum length of 255 characters. If you add 20 characters each for first and last names (plus the period and the at sign) you can end up with quite a long email address. The USPS uses 28 characters for city length. -- Gerry Boyd ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
