HTML - Question About <form>
Hi,
how can I position a <form> om my page in html? WHat or how does it work? please give example. thanks Similar TutorialsHello, 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. Pete 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" />  <input type="reset" value="Clear" /></td> </tr> </colgroup> </table> Hi.

The site structure works like this: Code: -index.php -edit.php?id=# -delete.php?id=# -new.php What I want the navbar to look like is this: Code: --------------------------- |EDIT DELETE NEW [input box]| --------------------------- Where edit, delete and new are 64x32px images.

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!! 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. 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 Hi guys, I have a client who's on a budget and has a unique need in one of their forms on the website. They are a shuttle company that caters to college students. In the form, there will be a drop-down option for University, and when you choose one, a second drop-down field needs to appear below to select the dormitory, from a list. I wanted to know if anyone had any simple, affordable ideas to get this done. Any feedback is appreciated, thanks alot! You guys have helped me alot in the past and I thank you. -Nick Intuition Designs LLC I have another HTML form question....when I used http://www.forms4free.com, neither they nor Freedback have information about adding javascript for format, do you guys no of any good tutorials on Javascript for form validation? I have a form field that I want to remember the text that was put into it after the submit button is pressed......do i need to do that with cookie or is there a way to make a form field remmber the last inputed data?.....for clarity's sake i don't mean for it to remember the data when a user comes back to the page just while they are visiting it. I understand this is the HTML section and I'll be posting a little Java. Let's say you're going to take an online quiz to see your IQ. To 'check' the answer your query has to be sent and checked with an existing copy/data, right? If I wanted to see the answer to question three on the IQ test where would I find the existing copy/data? For instance, how would I figure out the answer?

Using the following code, how can I have the information sent to the email address and also redirected to another page when the user clicks submit. <html> <body> <FORM METHOD = Post action="mailto:code.bro@verizon.net" Enctype="text/plain"> First Name: <input type ="text" name="firstname"/>   Last Name: <input type ="text" name="lastname"/> <br/> <br/><dd/> Comments orSuggestions: <br/><dd/> <textarea name="comment" rows="10" cols="50"></textarea> </textarea> <input name="redirect" Type="hidden" value="index.html"> <input name="next_url" Type="hidden" value="index.html"> <br>           <input type = "submit" value="send"> <input type = "reset" value="clear"> </form> </body> </html> I have very limited HTML training, but I'm trying to find out how to write some HTML code that will allow a website or blog visitor to: 1. Enter their email address in a form field 2. Select a choice from a drop down menu Once they've done that and hit a submit button, I would like to have the info emailed to me. I know this is possible, but is it possible to have this text on a blog like Blogger, or do I have to have my own webpage with specific settings or formats? Thank you so much in advance. so in the end of a form you normally have a submit button which sends it off to an email addy, but i want what the users put in the form fields to come up on their page instead i think this involves editing the FORM ACTION="" part, but dont know what to do if what i'm trying to do is confusing you, what i mean is there's a few drop down menus and comment boxs, they fill them in, click submit and what it would normally create to email someone comes up in an html page for them to see what they put Hi all, I have a directory on my website that is password protected... I'd like to set it up so the first page a visitor sees has an option to log in (with username/password form field) or register with a full form to collect their information. Right now all visitors see is an ugly gray box that asks for username and password. How can I do this? All files in the directory (including PDFs etc.) have to stay protected.

Please help~~~ Hi, Below is my line of input code where I pass a certain variable. What I want to know is - is it possible to leave that 'identifer' value out of the url string if a user does not enter anything in that field? It's for a hotel reservation system and if left blank, it causes an error. It works fine is a user enters a code though. Code: <input type="text" name="identifier" value="" style="width:70px; font-size:11px;" /> Any ideas?
