Alex, you will need to do some server-side scripting, as in php. using the languages' mail() function will send from the form. http://us2.php.net/mail Off topic, this is a standards group, not necessarily a programming help list. *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] Form Submit
I believe what you want to do is use a form handler. This will send the form information to a desired email address once the submit button is pressed. This can be accomplished in many different ways. If you don't have the means to program your own, check out www.hotscripts.com and search for 'form handler'. Hope this helps.

Re: [WSG] Form Submit
You generally would post the form to a page with code such as PERL,PHP or ASP.NET to process the form. Here is one simple tutorial on it http://apptools.com/phptools/forms/ Here is a link to alot of tutorials http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorials/PHP/Form-Processing/1 Michael Horowitz Your Computer Consultant http://yourcomputerconsultant.com 561-394-9079 Alexander Uribe wrote: Hi there, I've created a page on a site that has a form for customers to submit information.
