HTML - Difference Between Non-digest And Digest Mailing Lists?
My apologies if I posted in the wrong forum, but I didn't know where else to post it, as it's not really "multimedia."
I don't understand the difference between non-digest and digest mailing lists. I have a website for a record label, so I am using the "Mailman" program to set up a mailing list. It asks if I want my list members to be able to choose whether they want to receive emails immediately or in a batched digest, yes or no? If I choose no, it will default to batched digest. If I say yes, my list members will have to choose between the two, and I'm sure most people have no idea what the difference is. Why can't the default be non-digest? All I want is to send out the occasional email to tell the list members about a new album, and be able to receive replies from list members that everyone on the list (including myself) can read and re-reply if necessary. I don't even see the need to have it batched as a digest? I don't even really know what that does. Apparently, sends everything to you at a certain time at the end of the day? I'm very confused.

I want to make a page that will automatically unsubscribe them so I'm not sure how it should save the information (i.e. csv,database,cgi script..)? 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? Hi, I need to have a form on my website that enables users to put their email address in a box and for it to be sent to my email account to add to a mailing list. Thanks for any help Dyfrig 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 was wondering how to have a Javascript prompt E-Mailed to me. Thanx 4 the help! 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! Hi guys, good morning! 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, 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?? Here is the current HTML code for the form... .. --> Begin Response-O-Matic Form --> .. --> DO NOT EDIT YOUR FORM HERE, PLEASE LOG IN AND EDIT AT RESPONSE-O-MATIC.COM --> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="http://www.response-o-matic.com/mail.php" accept-charset="UTF-8"> <div> <input type="hidden" name="acctid" id="acctid" value="fvb190zozxbejrme" /> <input type="hidden" name="formid" id="formid" value="547157" /> <input type="hidden" name="required_vars" id="required_vars" value="name,email" /> </div> <table cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5" border="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"> <strong>Name:</strong> </td> <td valign="top"> <input type="text" name="name" id="name" size="40" value="" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top"> <strong>Email Address:</strong> </td> <td valign="top"> <input type="text" name="email" id="email" size="40" value="" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="center"> <input type="submit" value=" Submit Form " /> </td> </tr> </table> </form> <br><center><font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="1"><b> <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnJlc3BvbnNlLW8tbWF0aWMuY29t">create web form</a> </b></font></center> .. --> End Response-O-Matic Form --> 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!!

Ive no idea how easy this is ? Can somebody help ? Thank you in advance ! Daniel Dear I made an html newsletter with dreamweaver and I used the swap image behavior. I can view the result perfectly in explorer. Now I mailed it to my own mailbox (via explorer) and in outlook (and also in hotmail) the swap image effect doesn't appear.(the second photo is not shown) Is there a possibility to see this in my mailbox? I tried to paste the code into my outlook, but that doesn't work with the regular outlook, I only can view the source, not edit it. Thank you very much in advance! Kind regards Sandra 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. I'm rather new to HTML and thereforme I'm follwing a training by a rather good traininginstitute (a written training with assignments).

Paolok I am newbie and want to know the difference between HTML and XTHML Hi guys, Iv just downloaded the new version of visual studios, and before when i created new tables,rows,cells etc iv just wrote <table> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> etc but now when i type this is to visual studio it gives me an error saying <tr> cant be nested within a div tag, iv searched the code for any div tags within the page and i cant find any, So my question is this whats the difference between Div tags and Tr etc, if i can get an understanding of this then ill start using the div tags etc..... Thanks. Hey guys if you look at my site in FF the hosting image proces are all level buy in IE the Business package it higher and I cant figure out why http://www.upfrontdesigns.co.uk/build/hosting.html Also in IE where the footer is there are 2 lines on the left and right handside which I belive are from the bottom shadow border how do I sort this problem as well. Many Thanks Hey guys, Well I've been working on a website from my hostmatrix account and it all works ok. I'm now transferring all the files and images over to another server where our website is held but I can't seem to get some of the images working and I cannot for the life of me work out what's wrong. http://www.uptheshots.co.uk/ - Hosted HERE (at hostmatrix) http://www.redbluearmy.com/martin_test/index.php - This is where I'm moving to. On the first link you can see the background is not white but on the second link it is. I can't work out why though and what I've done wrong. The only difference is that at the moment I've got it in a sub-folder but I've changed all my links so it should work ok. If you need to see a file just tell me. To be honest I don't know where I should be looking but I'm guessing it's something to do with my css files and the images for the background. Thanks Hello, I've been working on my website recently and I've found a problem that I have no idea how to fix. I have an unordered list that serves as the menu on the left of the site. I've been trying to remove the black dots that come with the unordered list. They only show up on the first one and they blemish the site. I want to keep it with a list because it allows for pleasing aesthetics in combination with my CSS (link hover changes the color). Is there a way I can keep the same look and get rid of the dots? Code: <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /> <title>Bob's Page</title> </head> <body> <center> <img class="center" src="img/banner.jpg"></center> <div class="left"> <ul> <li><a href="index.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li> <li><a href="products.html">Products</a></li> <li><a href="mailto:robert.t.adams5@gmail.com">Contact Me</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="right"> <p>Text goes here. </div> </body> </html> look at it he http://eco-heater.bobadams.x10hosting.com I need some help.
