Form won't send to email?
I made a HTML form in my site as unfortunately I am only on a free host that doesn't support PHP (I can't yet afford to pay for a host)
I have my site uploaded and all I wanted was for the form when submitted to be sent to me in raw data to the email address I put in the code but this doesn't seem to be working. This is the code I used: <form method="post" action-mailto:"great_gulper@yahoo.co.uk"> Name: <br /> <input type="text" name="fullname" size="30"/> <br /> Email: <br /> <input type="text" name="e-address" size"30"/> <br /> </p> <p> Subject: <br /> <input type="text" name="subject" size="40"/> <br /> <br /> Category: <select name="category"> <option selected="selected">Feedback</option> <option>Commission Information</option> <option>Complaint</option> <option>General Enquiry</option> </select> </p> <p> Comment: <br /> <textarea name="comment" rows="10" cols="55"> </textarea> </p> <p> <input type="checkbox" name="yes" /> Yes! Please answer this email! <br /> <input type="checkbox" name="no" /> No! Leave me alone! <br /> </p> <p> <center> <input type="submit" value="Send!" /> <input type="reset" value="Reset" /> </center> </p> </form> And this is the site link: http://www.helioslune.co.uk/ContactMe.html As you can see it's all there and does appear to be functioning but is it possible I've made an error somewhere in my code that I'm just not seeing? Any help would be hugely appreciated! Inks |

Re: Form won't send to email?
As far as I know you would have to use CGIEmail or similar to have it actually send. PHP mail() will work too.

Ah hah! That's great! Right now I have to rely on it opening an email program until I can get a server that can support PHP. |
