HTML - Email Form Not Working Help

Trying to create an order form for a web page that will send a mail to an order inbox. Have 2 problems:
- The email appears and the user has to click "send". I do not want that. I want it to be sendt automatically, and the user should only get an output of "Order sent" How can I do this?
- Also, the email is very cryptic. Is there any way I can edit the message body to be more easely readable?

Appreciate any suggestions.

Is there a way to have an email form that includes a field where you would enter an email address and this would be used in the "to" field of the email.

I've created a form and need help getting it to actually work.

Here is what I have done so far...

Thanks in advance to anyone who offers help.

Ok

So I was a little premature in adding to my previous post the the form was now working in IE.

I've written 2 forms, the first was a very basic general feedback form, asking the user to rate the site as Excellent, Good or Poor, together with a comments field. This is a relaunch of a site than ran into a little disuse and became out of date.

(Once the site is live I'll think about adding the details into a topic on this site for you all to see.)

The second was as my first post (form redirect) listed.

Both were using the method="post" but I'd read that you didn't need this if you were using 'mailto' tag so I removed it. Now it adds the email recipients but removes the email subject and doesn't add the responses into the body of the email.

Further reading indicated that for very basic forms the method="get" is better so I changed it. This stopped it working in Chrome.

Can't win!

Leaving the method out.............still no joy.

Hey ho.



Will probably get the site host to use Perl (or whatever other they use for other sites they have developed).

Benefits?

No more headaches for me. Less chance of spammers. Hopefully better security and more likelihood of people using the form as they wouidn't need to give their email address if they didn't want to. And, hopefully, some chance of being able to filter out those inapproriate responses some people like to submit with these forms.

Ok i am trying to make a page with a form to fill out and when they hit submit it gets send right to my email...but right now when i hit send my outlook comes up to send the email and i know not alot of people have outlook set up...how do i go about doing this???

what do i change in this?

Hi,

I would like to have a html form that automatically emails the input to my email address. It will include a drop down box and text fields.

Could anyone help me with this?

Thanks.

Hello all,

I am building a website for a church and I am having trouble getting the contact form working properly. Below is the form code I have. I am also new to ipage, so if anyone is familiar with any server setup, it would be greatly apreciated!

<form method= "post" action="http://www.ipage.com/scripts/formemail.bml">

<input type="hidden" name="my_email" value="mailto:info@blanchardnaz.org">
Name<br>
<input type="text" name="Name" size="25"><br>
Email<br>
<input type="text" name="Email" size="25"><br>
Phone Number<br>
<input type="text" name="Phone Number" size="25"><br>
<br>
<textarea rows="15" cols="50"></textarea>
<br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send" >
<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset" >
<input type="hidden" name="thankyou_url" value="http://www.blanchardnaz.org/index.html">
</form>

Okay, I shoould probably start off by saying I am a complete and utter noob when it comes to HTML. I can basically do text, links, images, basic forms, and that's it. So I'm not sure if the following question is legitimately an issue or not, or if I'm just being stupid.

I'm working on a website for a small organization that I'm head of, and want to make a "contact us" page. I would like to make a form that can be filled out to send an email to, but what I'm doing isn't working - the email won't send. Here's what I'm trying to use:

Code:

<form action="mailto:someone@something.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">

<h3>Use this form to send an email to [insert my name here].</h3>
Name:<br>
<input type="text" name="name"
value="Your name here" size="20">
<br>
E-Mail:<br>
<input type="text" name="e-mail"
value="Your E-Mail Address" size="20">
<br>
Message:<br>
<input type="text" name="message"
value="Your Message" size="40">
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send it!">
<input type="reset" value="Reset All Fields">

</form>

The form shows up, but the email doesn't send. Can somebody help me out, please?

I used a tutorial on another website to create a Email Form. But the form doesn't work. Can someone help me work out whats wrong.
I also want to add a confirmation page.

HTML Code:

<form action="mailto:exterminate-tcg@hotmail.co.uk?subject=Join Form" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> 
<table><tr><td> 
Name: <INPUT NAME="Name" TYPE="text" SIZE=15 MAXLENGTH=50><BR> 
Email: <INPUT NAME="Email" TYPE="text" SIZE=20 MAXLENGTH=90><BR> 
Website URL: <INPUT NAME="Website URL" TYPE="text" VALUE="http://" MAXLENGTH=4555><BR> 
Birthday: <INPUT NAME="Birthday" TYPE="text" VALUE="dd/mm" SIZE=6 MAXLENGTH=5><BR> 
Set Colecting: <INPUT NAME="Set Colecting" TYPE="text" SIZE=15 MAXLENGTH=11111><BR> 
Referred By (Optional): <INPUT NAME="Referred By (Optional)" TYPE="text" SIZE=15 MAXLENGTH=30><BR> 
Comments?<BR><TEXTAREA NAME="Comments?" ROWS=4 COLS=20></TEXTAREA><BR> 

</td></tr> 
<tr><td align=center> 
<INPUT TYPE="submit" value="submit" style="color: #000000 ; background-color: #FFFAFA "> 
</td></tr></table> 
</FORM>

Hey guys,

Hey everyone,

First time poster here with a slight dilemma. I am rather new to the world of coding and have hit my first "Cant find it on google" roadblock.

Basically I need to make an embedded email form for a webpage that allows users to basically send an email right from the page to whoever they want. I would like the email to have an image inside of it, and when the recipient opens the email it has the senders message along with the image and link to the webpage.

We can start with the basics on making an embedded form that allows them to input their recipient of choice.

Any help you guys can give would be GREATLY appreciated.

Edit: Essentially I am looking to embed a "Share this Site" type form, only it shares the specific page/image they are looking at.

Thanks!

Any Help would be much appreciated

I've basically got 2 boxes, one is email, one is name, and then a submit button.

It may be stupid, but I can't link them together (as 1 form).

They have images inbetween them so I can't seem to link the code so they all work together?

Any ideas?
