HTML - Website Form Question

Dear forum members,

I have a web site on which i wish to add a page with a news-section. By that i mean a blog-like section, where i can post updates about events and products etc. So something like:

<separation_line>
<headline>
<the date of the news>
<body_text>
<separation_line>
etc.

Then i wish to make it so that the posts i put in this news section are automatically sent as wall post to the firm's facebook page (which is in turn sent to twitter, but that is already working).

I am completely new to blogs etc. but know how to code html, css and java and a few other languages.

Is there a way to do what I am looking for, easily? Is that something wordpress is for?

The web page is http://www.leveldance.com, in case that is of use in providing some advise.

Thank you very much in advance.

HI, I just started here... like two minutes ago.

I NEED help on getting a form to automatically post to a page on my website.

So, i'm making a class website, right, and I need my teacher to be able to post stuff on a page and have it erase what was already on there (every week). My teacher does not know html, so I would like to have a text box automatically edit the page, I am a medium web designer... but I do not know ANYTHING about this, I have searched EVERYWHERE and couldn't find ANYTHING. It got so annoying that I gave up for about 6 months... until today, which is why I'm asking this. By the way, I would also like "Contact us" forms to go directly to my email, WITHOUT any CRAPPY websites (like the one I'm using now) any help would be very appreciated!!

I am working on a website that deals with a form for an electronic check. I pretty much know how to do the code for getting the values, etc, I just do not know how to create the actual forms. I have to create the pages in Visual Studio 2008. Here is what I have to create:






The first image explains what is supposed to be in each field of the form. The second image is what it is supposed to look like after the user inputs information to the form.

And here is what the result is supposed to be after the user clicks the preview button:




So like I said, I know how to do most of the coding, I just have no idea how to manipulate Visual Studio to make the forms look like, or at least similar to, the pictures I posted. I have experience in html and css and some in javascript. So that is not really the issue. I just do not know Visual Studio too well. It seems like there is something easy and/or obvious that I am missing. I played around with VS for several hours earlier and I could not make anything that looked similar the images.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

What is a good, simple and secure example code to send a contact us form? If I use html it warns the user that the connection is unencrypted and in internet explorer makes you creat an email account in order for the form to be submitted.

I just want to send a few text area values to my email as a contact us form. Thanks!

Hello, The department I work for recently asked me if I could add a search tool to the front page of our home page. Unfortunately, this is new to me as I've never had to (or tried to) do anything like that before. At this point I'm not sure where to begin or if it can be done with the home page we have. Our website is pretty extensive so I can understand the need. I kindly thank anyone who would be willing to get me started. The website has been developed from adobe golive, if that's important. Thanks again.

I have created a form that just consist of a comments section and a submit button. Right now it is set to email the comments posted. The problem is we would like to keep the persons identity secret. See, when the person hits submit it brings up their email software and sends the email with their email address. We dont want to know their email address. So question is - is there a way of sending the email when they hit submit w/o us seeing their email address? or is there a different way of the person sending their comments w/o us knowing who it came from? Thanks! here is my html:

<table><form method= "post" enctype="text/plain" action="mailto:my@my.com">
<colgroup align="left" valign="top">
<tr>

<td>Comments:</td>
<td><textarea name="comments" rows="5" cols="70" /></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><input type="submit" value="Submit" />&nbsp
<input type="reset" value="Clear" /></td>
</tr>

</colgroup>
</table>

Hello,

Please forgive me if this makes no sense at all, I have been trying to figure this out for awhile now and just dont really understand forms.

I am trying to figure out how to make the form on my website work. http://www.legrandmotorsports.com/service_status/

The purpose of the form is to have customers enter their service tag number, click submit, and be able to view the status of their service work.

Heres what I am trying to do... Whether or not its possible, I dont know?

I would upload the service status html pages by thier tag number under the service_status directory. Example: legrandmotorsports.com/service_status/4151.html

Now, my question is, is there a way to set this form up, so that the number the customers typed in, would be automatically put into the link "legrandmotorsports.com/service_status/SERVICE NUMBER HERE.HTML"

Then whenever they click submit, the number they typed, would be added to the link, taking them to their service status updates.


Is this possible? Or do you have any recommendations on how I could/should do this?



Any help is grately appreciated.

Hey all. I haven't designed a website in over 5 years and am extremely rusty. I'm trying to create a contact form and i have a question.

When i hit submit it opens up outlook and just fills in the too with the e-mail i choose and the body has the content of the form. I don't want it to do this. When i hit submit i want it to send the contents of the form to an e-mail of my choosing and then take you to another page that says "Thank You for your submission" or something along those lines.

Right now i have:

<form action="MAILTO:example@example.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">

<h3>Please fill out the form below and someone will be in touch with you shortly.</h3>
Name:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="name"/>
<br/>
City:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="city"/>
<br/>
State:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="state"/>
<br/>
Zip Code:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="zip"/>
<br/>
Phone #:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="phone"/>
<br/>
E-Mail:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="email" />
<br/>
Comment:
<br/>
<textarea rows="10" cols="80" wrap="physical" name="comments">
</textarea>
<br/>
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">

</form>

What am i missing and how do i go about doing what i want? Thanks in advance!!

Hello,

I am new to posting on HTMLforums.com. I have a quick question for someone that has a good understanding of HTML (and most likely JS).

On the front page of SWFL.cc I have a search box to the left. It is connected to the php search functionality in the Open-Realty Script. I would like to know if there is a way to get this functionality:

I have the Purchase/Rental drop down, and I would like to know if there is any way to change the price variables depending on the selection of the purchase/rental drop down.

If this is possible, could someone point me in the right direction to figure out how to go about doing this.

Thank You,

Brian Meyer

Hey, I am relatively new to html and had a quesiton concerning html forms.

I am familiar with how to display the form on the site and have the user submit it, but how can i retrieve that data automatically (real time preferred) and post it on the page without doing anything else myself.

specifically, how can i have a user input a link and have the html code automatically add it to a page?

Any help would be appreciated.
