HTML - Need Help With Sending Results Of A Form
Hi,
its been many years since i've done any website / html work but a friend of mine asked me to help him add a form to his marriage website that basically works as a RSVP option. he wants people to be able to add their name and click if they are going to be attending or not...click submit and have it send it to his e-mail. Making the form was easy (and i won't bore u with the code), the only problem i'm having with is how to make the submit button send an e-mail. I did some looking and it seems like its going to require the user to have sending e-mails enabled thru their browser? does anyone know of an easy way to do this (preferably one that doesn't require the user to have any sort of brain) ? Simple is better and all i need is a quick fix thx for any help bigunn Similar TutorialsHope someone can help me. I've got a html page set up so that my clients can type in their name, choose several options via radio buttons, an option to clear the form, then submit the form. What I'm having trouble with is how to obtain the information from the form. I think I would prefer this to be retrieved via email. Is there a way I can: 1. Have the subject of the email be the name of the client (whatever they type in) 2. The results of the form sent to my email (let's say it's myemail@university.edu) Thanks in advance! Here is the html code I have: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Bonus</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> </head> <body> <form method = "post" action = "mailto:myemail@university.edu"> <p> Type your name in the box below then select the advancing team and click <i>submit</i> when finished. </p> <p> Name: <input type = "text" name = "name" maxlength = "30"/> </p> <table border = "5"> <tr> <td colspan = "2" align = "center"><b>STANLEY CUP PLAYOFF HUNT BRACKET</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="328" align = "center">Eastern Conference</td> <td width="359" align = "center">Western Conference</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group1" value = "BB"/>Boston Bruins (1) <input type = "radio" name = "group1" value = "MC"/>Montreal Canadiens (8)</td> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group2" value = "SJS"/>San Jose Sharks(1) <i>vs.</i> <input type = "radio" name = "group2" value = "AD"/>Anaheim Ducks (8)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group3" value = "WC"/>Washington Capitals (2)<input type = "radio" name = "group3" value = "NYR"/>New York Rangers (7)</td> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group4" value = "DRW"/>Detroit Red Wings (2) <i>vs.</i><input type = "radio" name = "group4" value = "CBJ"/>Columbus Blue Jackets (7)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group5" value = "NJD"/>New Jersey Devils (3) <input type = "radio" name = "group5" value = "CH"/>Carolina Hurricans (6)</td> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group6" value = "VC"/>Vancouver Canucks(3) <i>vs.</i><input type = "radio" name = "group6" value = "SLB"/>St. Louis Blues(6)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group7" value = "PP"/>Pittsburgh Penguins (4) <input type = "radio" name = "group7" value = "PF"/>Philadelphia Flyers (5)</td> <td><input type = "radio" name = "group8" value = "CB"/>Chicago Blackhawks (4) <i>vs.</i><input type = "radio" name = "group8" value = "CF"/>Calgary Flames (5)</td> </tr> </table> <p></p> <p><input type = "reset" value = "Reset"/> <input type = "submit" value = "Submit" /></p> </form> </body> </html> I have an online form done in html. I need the person to be able to submit the form first and then be able to print the form after they have sent it. How can this be done? Thanks Really dumb question... How do you get the forms to send to your e-mail account? I need a simple, easy-to-set-up-but-relieable way to do it. Hi I am learning XHTML and was wondering if you could help me to give me the tag on how to send a form by email in 'clean' text (no word1+word2+word3... format). I have tried several things and failed. Thank you in advance if you can help. I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to send data from a form directly to an email address without being redirected to the user's default email app or using a CGI script. I have little to no background in PERL and while I realize I'm going to have to become well versed in it (and am in the process of learning it) I need a solution to this immediate problem. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks. Below is the relevant block of code: ********* <form method=post action="mailto:youremailaddress@user.com" enctype="text/plain"> <table width="90%" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"> <font face="times" color="#000340" size="3"> Name: <br /><br /></td><td width="*" valign="top"> <input type="text" name="Name" size="20" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Company: <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><input type="text" name="Company" size="20"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Company Address: <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><input type="text" name="Address" size="20"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Zip Code: <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><input type="text" name="ZipCode" size="20"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Phone: <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><input type="text" name="Phone" size="20"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Email Address: <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><input type="text" name="email" size="20"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" valign="top"><font face="times" color="#000340" size="3">Requested Product(s): <br /><br /> </td> <td width="*" valign="top"><textarea cols="20" rows="4" name="comment" ></textarea><br /><br /> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> <br /><br /> </td> </tr> </table> </form> Hello I've searched the web for a simple form code that has a "submit" button, so that when a user clicks it I will receive an email with the submitted data - but - I want the user to click "submit" without being transferred to his default email program. I want him only to enter the data and when he presses the button, the data will be sent to my email. I want to put this code in a blog that supports HTML. What code can I use for it? I hope I made my question clear. I will really be happy to receive your help. Thank you very much. hi. I put up 2 forms on my site bwsciencelabs.com and they both work well, except they won't send. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Hi guys - sorry for this dumb post but It's my first go at this. I am using a simple form to pull in a user name and add it to a URL. However, it is converting -]^ etc to HEX. code: <form name="input" action="http://www.eclive.org/shotdetails.aspx" method="get"> Username: <input type="text" name="user"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> If I input user name -]Sa^Bison it returns this: http://www.eclive.org/shotdetails.as...-%5DSa%5EBison I have tried method="post" and that does not even pass the input accross. If I type the URL in manually it works great and returns the results I want, as in http://www.eclive.org/shotdetails.aspx?user=-]Sa^Bison I know it's going to be obvious here but ... Any help appreciated!! I am trying to create a form in HTML that will allow the user to select a department from a drop down and also enter their email address. on submit the form will be sent to the email address corresponding to the department as well as sending the user a copy of the form(the email address they entered manually). This code only sends the form to Dept1 & Dept2. If I move the "email_count" input field before "name1" then it sends the user email and the Dept1 email only. This works great if they select Dept1 each time, not so much if a different department is chosen. Any help would be great! I don't have access to the cgi code. Here is what I have so far: <form action="http://intranet/cgi-bin/genemail.cgi" method="POST" enctype="x-www-form-encoded" class="body" name="theform" onSubmit="return formCheck()"> <input type="hidden" name="FORM" value="IDEA Form"> <input type="hidden" name="sendto" value="MORE_EMAIL"> <input type="hidden" name="name1" value="Dept1"> <input type="hidden" name="email1" value="Dept1@email.com"> <input type="hidden" name="name2" value="Dept2"> <input type="hidden" name="email2" value="Dept2@email.com"> <input type="hidden" name="name3" value="Dept3"> <input type="hidden" name="email3" value="Dept3@email.com"> <input type="hidden" name="name4" value="Dept4"> <input type="hidden" name="email4" value="Dept4@email.com"> <input type="hidden" name="email_count" value="2"><!--for email to submitter--> Here is the option box: <select name="name_choice"> <option selected>Dept1</option> <option>Dept2</option> <option>Dept3</option> <option>Dept4</option> </select> Here is the text box that the user will enter their email address: <input name="email5" type="text" value="first.last@email.com" size="50" id="UserEmail"> Here is my submit code; <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit"> Hi I'm sending an HTML file as an Email attachment.

What causes this behaviour and how can I correct it? Thanks for any help David Paddling upstream searching for the source So, I have made a form as a pre-LAN-event thing.. The problem is that I have never really used forms before and am not really that familiar with more advanced HTML besides simple layout stuff..

Sorry if it is a noobish question.. Thx in advance. - Ward, out! Hello, I have a form which links to Results.htm Basically I want the title of that page which opens in a new window to be whatever was input in the form previously. Hope you all can help me, it's been bothering me for quite some time. Thanks, Jooey Hello everyone, I am creating a HTML form which is driven by PHP. This is working fine, but when I get results in email box they appear like this. Name : james Email : Telephone : dhfjdfjdhf Collection_address : fhdjfhdjhjh Number_of_bedrooms_current_location: : jhhjhjh Delivery_address : hjhhj Number_of_bedrooms_new_location : hjhhj Items_that_need_moving : hjhhj Pack_items : No Store_any_items? : NO Provide_details : hjhhjhj Submit_email : Submit Is there any way of making form results look more attractive to the reader of the email form? If so where is the code applied for the doing this? Will it be on contact form itself? Thanks Hello all, I searched the board for an answer and didn't have any luck. This makes me wonder if what I want to do is possible. I have a webpage that uses divs to section the page into four sections (top, bottom, content, and navigation). On the navigation side is where users select a set of form options and based on those options details should display in the content section. Frames is not an option as we're trying to get away from frames and I need to make subsequent pages for other things without the frames. Thanks in advance for you helpm ~ML Hi Folks, Is there a way to target the results of a form on one of my pages to a frame in a frameset. I have a form which produces a search on a site I pay to use. I want the results of this search to be in the bottom of a two row frameset. The top row of the framset will have links back to. The form itself is on my main page and is NOT a part of a frameset. Hope i have been clear. I'm assuming I may have to use javascript or php but not sure. All the best, Libman I am trying to create a form where I can check boxes of skills to return results of how many "departments" i have checked have those skills. It would look something like this: Check box - Description of skill1 Check box - Description of skill2 Check box - Description of skill3 SUBMIT BUTTON Department | Skill1 | Skill 2 | Skill 3 | Total -------------------------------------------------- ABC________1_______1______0____2 XYZ ________1_______1______0____2 So I need a code where I can check the boxes that apply, hit the submit button and have a value box display in each department instance if there was a match of not (1 = match 0 = no) So if i checked box skill 1 and skill 2 there would return a 1 under skill 1 and 2 for each department and show the tally of that under the total. Can someone help? thanks! I would like to know how to create a mini form of two pull down boxes so that when the two selections have been made and submitted it returns back a designated page or picture. For example I want to build a simple method to show routes of an office building. Pulldown box 1 would be the office number you want to start from, and pulldown box two would be the office you want to get to. when you click submit it would pull up either a page or picture which contains the corrrect floor plan and route. I feel like this should not be too hard as I don't need anything very flashy. I just don't know how to start it. If anyone knows of something open source already created to do this I would be open to that too. Thanks in advance for any assistence you can give. Hi. I am creating web service. But the problem must be somewhere on HTML page. When I submit form, the data send by web service (java program) to the page does not show up. If I do not submit form, then the program works; results appear on the page. The form is submitted invoking pushSubmit() javascript function. This method is invoked from setMessage() javascript function. I submit form cause in this way I discover what value is selected on drop down list. This is done using JSP code. Can I do it somehow else. Next action using retrieved data is to invoke Java class on server side. What might be the problem? This is the code: Code: <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=utf-8" language="java" import="java.sql.*" errorPage="" pageEncoding="UTF-8" %>
<%@ page import="mart.ebay.database.ReadsCategoryTable" %>
<jsp:useBean id="categoryList" class="mart.ebay.database.ReadsCategoryTable" scope="request" />
