HTML - Mailing List Creation
I'm a HTML beginner, though i've done some simple stuff with Perl/CGI. I know i'm missing some very basic knowledge with this question.
I'd like to let a user create a mailing list (though this seems like a class of problem that would apply to a lot of situations). The HTML should show the current mailing list, or the recipient that was filled in by a different form. It should have blank text field to enter a new address, and something like a Add-Address button to trigger the addition to the potentially much longer mailing list string. It should hopefully show the results immediately after hitting the button. (And maybe checking for validity.) Is this sort of thing possible with basic HTML, is it more of a Javascript problem, or is it fairly alien to any HTTP/HTML situation. Am i forced to something with an ugly full-page refresh afterwards? (And how ugly would that be?) Thanks! P.S. -- NOT a spammer!

Thanks for any help Dyfrig Hi! I'm using FrontPage and I want to create a mailing list that I can do mail merging with but I don't know exactly how to set up the form.

Hi, so I know hardly anything about HTML and I am hoping someone can help me.... I am in a band have created a Mailing List Form using a website named "Response O Matic"... Its a good enough form, but I really want to change the background colour from transparent to black... can anyone help??

I have recently signed up for an mailing list account with topica and have implemented the code on my site. It's working fine but I am not impressed by the validation of emails and that it's asking every member that signs up to also register with topica! What I want to know is a) is there any other alternatives that let you customize the email verification message they send out which is entitled 'Topica Customer Care - RESPONSE REQUIRED: Topica Email Verification'? I fear that this message is going to lose me people who may think it is junk mail because it does not appear to be coming from my company! and b) if not, is there any decent tutorials/scripts floating about to do it yourself? Cheers, Jamie Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to put a simple mailing list form on my website. I found some html code for it that looks like this: <div class="divrnd"><h1>Mailing List</h1></div> <form action="http://www.example-address.com/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi"> <p align="center"> <input type="text" name="email" value="email address"/> <br/> <input type="submit" value="Join the Mailing List"/> <br/> <input type="hidden" name="flavor" value="subscribe"/> </p> <p> </p> </form> </div> So is this the kind of code I would want to use? And then would I just substitute the website address in the "form action" tag for my own? I have a godaddy domain and e-mail, so I'm guessing I would have to set something up but I don't know if I'm on track here... thanks! I dont even know if what i want is actually called a 'mailing list' All i really want is to be able to have TYPE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IN HERE TO BE UPDATED WITH THE LATEST! on the website (myspace page in this case) and then a box underneath for somebody to type their email in, click enter, or join or whatever, and I get sent an email to my gmail account just containing their email address. Ive no idea how easy this is ? Can somebody help ? Thank you in advance ! Daniel Is there a basic html code or script i can enter to just make a mailing list form? as simple as a tab for entering your name and a tab for e mail address and then having it sent to an email?.....the site im using hostmonster.com has PHP but im pretty much clueless on setting up a mailing list with it...and ive been reading a good amount but its confusing... al i want is a form with name and e mail entry which is then sent to my main e mail address..any help i would really appreciate it, its driving me crazy!! having a bunch of jpeg images, i need to create a html table listing all the jpegs in a folder, like <td><img src="image1"></td> <td><img src="image2"></td> <td><img src="image3"></td> is there a small software or script so i could do it? finally i want to have something that looks like this: http://www.victorboyko.com/runway/ss...aakhmadullina/ thank you! Hello, Ive left an area to add a "mailing list join up" to my site and I havnet a clue how to do it... here is the page http://www.fashionfreakers.com/samplesite.html if anyone has any tips or sites I can view to make it happen I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, C. hi, i need form registraiton code that doesn't open outlook when you click submit. is there a way to have it automatically email to the "action mailto" email without opening oulook? I was wondering how to have a Javascript prompt E-Mailed to me. Thanx 4 the help! Not having a huge amount of HTML experience, I wondered if anyone would be able to give me a hand. What I'm trying to create is a form that uses the GET input data as part of a predetermined url, so it would take you to "http://desiredsite.com/[INPUT TEXT]". I don't need the site to change at any point, just the specific directory. I would prefer to approach this in plain old html but I guess a script may be necessary. In case it is relevant, the page I am making is staying local so there is no cgi or anything presently available. I would be greatly appreciative of any help. Thanks! sorry if this has been answered.. its late at night and have been scouring the net/chat sites for some answer to this issue but alas i yield no results... im working on a clan website where we want to create a text area form which is simple enough.. but its what i want to do with it that im having a little trouble.. were running joomla 1.5 and im pretty much self taught on design so as far as jargin trying to word how i want it is prolly my downfall.. anyway.. like i said we want a text area but im thinking individual fields would work better but upon submission is it possible to send the information to an html document on my webserver that i can use a wrapper to call up.. but i want the data displayed in a list format.. what sites or possibly just some functions that i can use/look up to make the data posted in list format.. but also i want it to be called up in .. for the sake of permissions lets say an author to view the person applying and either allow or deny using a menu option on their user menu.. but basically i need the form output to go to a page on the front end so the person applying can see that theyve been entered and check on their status with ease. thanks in advance hy allz!i really need a forum for an website not a comercial just a dumb school project and i don't know how to create one can someone give me a forum pls???a simple pls pls I know it takes a long time to create such a thing but I was not told about the fact I had to create a forum until now. I have 2 or 3 weeks to create a forum for an economical awareness group at my school. I am the only one with any HTML experience but I have never created a forum. If someone could help me I will love them forever. An outline, guidelines, or tutorials would be awesome. If you want you can also e-mail me with information.(crazedpandabear@gmail.com) Thank you greatly for any help anyone gives. ^^ does anyone know how to put a password into a page so that you or a selected person can access it? something like username: password: and a creation page so that you can make your own usernames and passwords... i'd use phpBB but I don't understand how to use it... cause it's blank xD oh and if it makes any difference... i use macromedia dreamweaver 2004 edition as my HTML... ect. edditor I am working on a web page that is a mess. I am thinking about redoing the whole entire page... Originally I was going to create the page in PHP but it seems to be a bit of overkill for this project.. Ive decided to just use html... does anyone have any tips or good tools I could use to start this project? For example... something that will create a simple style sheet for me / CSS grid builders? I am super rusty with html and I realize no one uses templates anymore... Im used to having pages automated for me (joomla) so creating a topnav and leftnav seems more difficult for me now... any advice would be great.. tutorials..open source , etc Thank you in advance ! Melanie i'm new to the world of html and need a little help on something. i create emails for companies to communicate w/their clients that mainly consist of a colored background w/ colored text/fonts. the initial problem was getting the colors to be displayed at the receiving addresses. but i learned how to increase the table and managed to have the chosen background color to display. this is the code for that: <table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width="98%" bgColor=#54726d> <tbody> <tr> <td> the problem i'm still having is getting the text color to display. as of now it shows as black. the font displays, but not the color. this is important, as i usually use a dark background w/light colored text. if the text is black it is hard to read. and i'd also like to know what in the above code made the background display at all. before the above code was added the bgcolor was in the 'body style' section of the code and did not show in the receiving addresses. i am curious about this, as i receive many emails w/colors and borders. (my test receiving email addresses are gmail, hotmail, and excite) thanks! rich Hello friends, As a Newbie.. I got a live project and im bowled in a part Attached is the target/goal image Need to be done in html/css format Attached is my work. can anyone help me in creating tabbed pane like in screen shot image? regards Hello. I am trying to create a page or form and I am not sure how to proceed. What I want to create is a webpage that has a list of several different things to choose from each with it's own check box. When the user selects what they want by checking the check boxes and hitting submit, a new page is created with just the selections they made. THe user can then print this page and use it as a worksheet. There is no reporting or databasing of the information. The final output is a hard copy print out. I started to play with some things that used <forms> for the selections page and this looked close to what I wanted. But for the submit part i was using .asp and this did not seem to work for me. I am not an experienced html person so I was wondering it there was another way to go for this. Maybe point me in a new direction. Hopefully something not too complicated. Thanks in advance for any help! |
