Answer» I am making a questionaire and im just making a test one right now and this is the link http://www.webspawner.com/users/testsite111/index.html. How do i get the INFO submitted and can i have it sent to an e-mail or something?
Code: [Select] <form action="MAILTO:<yourcensoredemailaddress>" method="POST" enctype="text/plain">
The code is right, your problem is the following:
Quote That's so easy; what could possibly be wrong with it? What's wrong is that it makes assumptions that may not be valid and, as a result, it is very unreliable.. It assumes that:
* The user's browser knows what to do with a mailto link * The user has e-mail client software INSTALLED and properly configured * The user's e-mail software knows what to do with a mailto url * The user's security settings allow this to happen without PROMPTING with a security alert
Let's consider some of the things that can go wrong:
* The user uses a webmail service, like hotmail * The user is using a public computer at a library or Internet cafe * The user uses a browser or e-mail software that doesn't recognize the mailto * The user's security settings cause a prompt, alerting the user of a potential security problem
If none of those apply, your form results will be sent like you wanted.
