HTML - Forms Question
Hi. I'm extremely new to html (began learning two days ago) and I'm designing a really basic site for an acquaintance of mine.
The purpose of this site will be to promote/encourage people to join and or donate to a research project. So here's my question: What I would really like to do is have a form on the site with fields for first and last name, address, and e-mail, and make it so that when someone submits this information, an e-mail is automatically dispatched, and a counter on the site is moved up a notch. What's the best way of going about this? Like I said, I've been at this a very short period and I only know basic html stuff. Thanks a lot in advance for your help. Similar TutorialsI am attempting to create a rather large form for users to fill out. When doing this does each text box have to have it's own form or should there only be 1 form with all the elements in it? Sorry for the basic question. Here is the example of my code: Code: <table width="200" border="1" bordercolor="#000000">
<caption>
Account Information
</caption>
<tr>
<td><form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<label>First Name
<input type="text" name="setup" id="setup" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form2" name="form2" method="post" action="">
<label>Last Name
<input type="text" name="setup2" id="setup2" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form3" name="form3" method="post" action="">
<label>Address
<input type="text" name="setup3" id="setup3" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
<td><form id="form4" name="form4" method="post" action="">
<label>Zip Code
<input type="text" name="setup4" id="setup4" />
</label>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
This is just a snippet of the code. Should I just have one form tag that is around all the text boxes? Thanks in advance, Scott Trying to do something that seem like it should be a piece of cake... I have a website with 6 or so password protected directories for clients. I want to create a one login page for all of them. So UN=bob and PW=1234, would direct to mydomain.com/bob and automatically login. I've never used forms before but it seems like I should be able to grab a "username" variable and a "password" variable from input boxes and then have a "submit" button that goes to http://username:password@mydomain.com/username All without using a database or a server side script. Yes? No? I have never designed a form before, I need help with how to get whatever the user submits to display. I want the text that is typed in the "comment box" to be sent to the current page. In other words I want it to work like ebay or amazon where other people can read feedback and comments from others. This is the code I have so far. <html> <body> <form> First Name: <input type ="text" name="firstname"/> <br/> Last Name: <input type ="text" name="lastname"/> <br/> <br/> Comments orSuggestions: <br/> <textarea rows="10" cols="50"> </textarea> </form> </body> </html> I have both <div id="images"></div> and <form> on the right column of my page. I want to overlap the two of them, because the form is hidden so that when the viewer clicks on "contact us" the images div will disappear then the form appears, through behaviors. But the form is below the images div tag, so when I click on contact us, the images disappear, but the form appears on the bottom of the image div tag, its suppose to take the place of the images div tag instead. _________ hey all, Thanks for looking at my issue, what i am trying to do is as follows! On my page http://cre8tivepixels.com/Quote%20form.html I have a quote form up the top, that works fine, i then added a section where models could send me three photos, when you click on these tabs it loads the photo up, but all i get is an email with the photo names but NO photos? What do i have to put in my script to make it so i recieve there jpegs, and not just the name of the file? Can this even be achieved? Basically i want the photos that a model submits to be delivered in my email address the same as my Quote Form above? Hope that makes sence? Cheers Dan Hi there - I tried searching for the answer to thsi question all over the web and have been unable to find the answer so I hope that someone here can help me. I have made a simple form that emails the results to me. However, once submitted the page stays stagnant. It doesnt go anywhere. Once submitted, I would like it to go to another page - like a thank you page. Here is the page: http://www.lillypad.net/content/article.html/1298177 Here is the code I am using: <form action="MAILTO:charbennett@gmail.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> <h3>Home Auctions Information.

http://lillypad.net/content/featured...uredproperty=1 Thank you for any help you can give! Sincerely, Char I have almost no knowledge of forms at all, and I need help... I need a form that makes one line with a button and a text box, the button should say "URL" and the text box should show the URL of a site. When you click the button it should highlight the URL in the text box. On the next line, another button that says "Image", and the text box has the URL of an image I have posted in my blog. Same here, when button gets clicked, it hightlights the URL in the text box. Simple? Hard? Can someone help a newbie? Here's an example of what I need: www.mycute.com Thanks! Helena Can somebody suggest a site where a can download an easy script to make my form work so that I can get it to my email? Thanks I am creating some forms for a website, and each form needs to have 1 or 2 text fields that can have additional text fields added or removed from the form. For example, a plus sign that would duplicate the text field, and then a minus sign to get rid of excess fields. I would really appreciate it! If you need more information on my problem stvnclerico@gmail.com Thankyou! I need help using a code to do the following: I have a search field, when someone types their serial number into the box it needs to bring the specs up for their computer. Currently i am using a code that is simply if this is typed it goes to this page. As the list of serial numbers grows the list becomes larger and larger. Is there a way to either make this an external file where i can update the one file instead of the actual page it is on or is their a simpler way to do this with maybe PHP, SQL or something else that would make this easier to update? Hi Everyone. I'm looking for a way to make a form (only one input line) inwhich you write an URL, press submit and it'll send you to that url. not sure if it's only HTML stuff, but i just can't get how to do it. The form should act like the address bar. If you want to know why don't i just use the address bar, It's because I need to use Frames. Yes, I know it's kind of old, but i like it Thanks alot Chaim Hi, I'm looking for some coding to start a small app that allows the filling of a form in order to submit my free 30 sms that i have montly from my operator. The manual procedure is 1) Login (by cookie or Session) 2) In the page, select SMS 3) Select a category (varies) 4) Write the message & Press Submit 5) Logout What i'm looking for is an app, JS/HTML/PHP/ASP/ETC that could bring the manual procedure described above in one simple form. I need to do a form submission that assigns values to radio buttons. Basically its a subjective hearing test, like this one. http://www.entnet.org/healthinfo/hea...aring_test.cfm My question is I don't know how to setup the form at the point of submission, so it returns the proper response, dependent on the selected buttons(or score)? Does anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance... Okay, I'm trying to make a form that sends the information entered to my email address. I don't know if it's the code or not but all it seems to be doing is opening up a blank email directed to the address. Here's the code: <form action="MAILTO:lifeisbetteroutsidethebox@hotmail.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> <p align="center"><strong>Your Full Name:</strong><br /><input name="name" type="text" class="style8" size="20"> </p> <p align="center"><strong>Your Email Address:</strong><br /> <input name="mail" type="text" class="style8" size="20" /> </p> <p align="center"><strong>Your City:</strong><br /> <input name="city" type="text" class="style8" size="20" /> <p align="center"> <input name="Send" type="submit" id="Send" value="Send"> <input name="Reset" type="reset" id="Reset" value="Reset"> </form> Okay, any help please? How do we get better form boxes rather than the usual ones ? And does anyone know the code to make a the border of a form box glow when we move the mouse over them ? Thnx in Advance !! Hello and thank you for having such a good resource for html online. I am trying to accomplish something and am not sure how to go about doing it. What I need to do is have a box that has multiple check boxes with I guess you can call them responses next to them. When the boxes are checked, I would like to be able to have a next button, that would bring me to another set of check boxes and of course answers. At the end of all of this, I would like to have whatever was checked put into a box at the end, that could be copy and pasted into another document. I am basically trying to make a function at my job easier. I have seen it done before, but am not sure what it would be called. I have dabbled a bit with html and for the life of me cannot figure it out. Not looking for someone to do this for me or even walk me through it, but just a point in the right direction. Thanks in advance. Hi can anyone help me I set up a website for a friend and added a form so clients could fill it in and make appointments. For some reason it doesn't seem to work properly.
