HTML - "post" Help For Form Entry
Hi I was wondering if someone could help me out with a project I working on at my work.
I have created a simple form web page that the sales people use to send a request to the help desk Everything works fine except my boss doesnt like the output of the email that gets generated to the helpdesk when someone clicks the send button. How can I change the format of the posted email?? I am interested in having a web format or some sort of word document attachment. this is what I have coded right now method="POST" enctype="text/plain"> Similar TutorialsHi All - I'm new to the forums and also somewhat new to web development. I'm trying to scrape together a website for my wedding and have managed my way through most of it, however the RSVP form is killing me. I believe the page is working fine with FF3 - at least it does what I want it to do. In IE7 however, when the submit button is pressed IE appears to hang, and status bar reads "waiting for rsvp2.php". The page never appears, however the file creation on the back end does complete successfully, so it IS doing something. I have changed the form method to "get" and IE seems to proceed normally, but I don't want to use this as a permanent solution. The URL is below and any help would be greatly appreciated. If there isn't enough information please let me know! www.nikiandzack.com/rsvp.php Thanks, Zack A customer gave me a Word doc that they want turned into a printer friendly web page. I understand that there are tons of ways to do this but I really want the answer to the subject. What i'm referring to is a form that someone can print from the browser and "fill in the blanks" on the page where there are "underscores". My question is how to code those underscores. I tried manipulating the <hr> tag but it's putting way too much space in between each <hr>. I've already coded a "fill in the blank" line using <u> nbsp;</u> but that looks very messy. What do you guys/gals think? This may seem like a rather elementary question, but I'm doing a this for a school project and wanted some input on how this should be done. What I'm looking to do is to have a very simple text-input box on my page where the user would obviously type in some text, then a simple "post" button or something like that where when once clicked, the text typed by the user would just then appear above the box, possibly in a table? How simple/complicated is it to do this. I'm pretty familiar with html so once I get pointed in the right direction I should be fine. I don't want a blog or something where someone has to sign up with a user name or anything like that, just whoever visits the site can write text into the/a text input box and then it is shown after whatever text was typed by the user before them. Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated. http://www.colletts.co.uk/winter_dolomites.htm I have the above page that redirects users to my Winter Website - the HTML below isn't valid W3C does anyone know of a better and valid way to get this done? Cheers, Mas HTML Code: <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="2.5;URL=http://www.colletts.co.uk/winter/winter_dolomites.html" /> Is it possible in to "post" to 2 different Url's on 2 different servers from just 1 form on a html page? I have used form mail scripts elswhere with success. What would the html look like? I have tried a few different ways and have only been able to call whichever script location I list fisrt. Any help appreciated! Hey all, So my boss has asked me to consolidate a whole bunch of HTML pages into one jsp page, and I'm having some trouble with the links. Basically the plan is to link to the same page while setting the "location" variable on the server to something else, so the jsp page can check the location variable and make the page accordingly. However, I don't want to just append the the location variable to the url, because its kind of ugly, so I would prefer if there was a way for the links to send a location string using a POST method. I could then use a getParameter call on the server to get the location, and the jsp page could adjust accordingly. Is this possible? Or will I be stuck linking back to the same page but with "?location=index" added to the url? Thanks beforehand. Cheers, Lukas I was hoping someone could clue me in as to whether or not this would be possible. I'm thinking it isn't but I need to make sure. I'd like to provide a file for people to download on my website, but when they click on the link and the download window appears I don't want them to have the option of opening it. Is it possible to only give them the option to save the file? Sounds incredibly unlikely but I gotta know. hi, i am working on <div> i have to hide some part of the table. I am not able to hide that table part can anybady tell me where is the error. Code: <html>

thx in Adv, Hanm. Hello, I want to load a page in a iframe, and when i do this, i want that page to be displayed not at the begining of that page, i want that page to be displayed at a "x" and "y" position specificated by me. How can i do that? Thank you. Hi, I have a problem with validating Strict XHTML 1.0 ... The tag: "option" doesn't have an attribute: "onchange" in currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 Strict]... Is there a way around this? Here's the code:. <select name="birth_month" onchange="form_d('yes');" size="1" style="width:8em"> <option<?php echo empty($a_birth_month)?' selected="selected"':''?> value="" onchange="form_d('yes');" >Month</option> Thanks Only another million pages to go. Hey, I'm trying to write some code for expanding and concealing text You can see this in action at youtube when you click the (more) button to expand text. Suppose I had a heading: MyHeading and a body of text: MyTextHere How do I make it so that when you click MyHeading it makes MyTextHere (initially not visible) appear, and when you click MyHeading again, it makes MyTextHere disappear? Thanks Alot. Rather than write them out i took a screenshot. So how do i get past those? Hi all, I am currently working on a website using Dreamweaver CS3. Whenever I view the (currently very basic) site in Firefox I get the line of code I entered as the title of this thread at the top of the page (directly above the banner) as if I had just typed it into the canvas area (correct term?). Whenever I view it in IE it appears just fine, not sure about other browsers though. I began by creating a template and adding it to the page you see he HTML Code: http://www.geocities.com/makotronic/indexx.htm Here is the code for the template: Code: <%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%>

Cheers for any help! Niall How can I restrict form submission to only the Submit button? I find the forms can be submitted also by the user pressing the "enter" or the "return" key (Users typically use IE or Firefox) By a mouseover the "Submit" button, a final check of data integrity is done as follows.... <INPUT type="submit" value="Submit Form" onmouseover="validate(personal_SS.value,personal_SS.id,personal_lastname.value,personal_lastname.id, personal_firstname.value,personal_firstname.id,personal_Birthdate.value,personal_Birthdate.id)"> <INPUT type="reset" value="Clear form"> Data is 128 bit SSL encrypted function validate(strngSS,x,strngLN,y,strngFN,z,strngBD,w) { if (strngSS== "") {alert("You didn't enter a Social Security Number."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { if ((strngSS.length < 9) || (strngSS.length > 9)) {alert("The Social Security Number is the wrong length. Just use numbers, no dashes... like 123456789 not " + strngSS); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { var illegalChars = /\W\#/; if (illegalChars.test(strngSS)) {alert( "The Social Security Number contains illegal characters. Just use numbers, no dashes or # signs."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } } } validateLN(strngLN,y) validateFN(strngFN,z) validateBD(strngBD,w) } function validateLN(strng,x) { if (strng== "") {alert("You didn't enter a Last Name."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { if ((strng.length < 3) || (strng.length > 15)) {alert("The Last Name is the wrong length. Just use letters, no dashes... " + strng); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { var illegalChars = /\W\#/; if (illegalChars.test(strng)) {alert( "The Last Name contains illegal characters. Just use letters, no dashes or spaces."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } } } } function validateFN(strng,x) { if (strng== "") {alert("You didn't enter a First Name."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { if ((strng.length < 2) || (strng.length > 12)) {alert("The First Name is the wrong length. Just use letters, no dashes... " + strng); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { var illegalChars = /\W\#/; if (illegalChars.test(strng)) {alert( "The First Name contains illegal characters. Just use letters, no dashes or spaces."); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } } } } function validateBD(strng,x) { if (strng=="") {alert("Please enter a valid Birthdate"); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { if ((strng.length<8) || (strng.length>8)) {alert("Please enter your Birthdate in the form mm/dd/yy, not " + strng); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } else { var illegalChars=/[\-\.\m\,\ ]/; if (illegalChars.test(strng)) {alert("The Birtdate contains illegal characters, use the format mm/dd/yy, not " + strng); document.ReturnPatientEntry.x.focus(); return; } } } } I know the coding is primitive, but it works. If the "Clear form" button is pressed, multiple consecutive error messages are tripped as the form is cleared. Can I suppress this as well? Thanks, Douglas McKibbin augustasurgery.org Hello Im sorry I really dont know HTML but i am a self learner and made a form for my website and it works perfectly but my problem is to SUBMIT it the form will open up Outlook Express and people ahve to send an email and junk. I was wondering if there was a way around it to like get it sent straight to my email address? like on freewebs.com if you submit a form it goes to your email (but of course if you want to do more than 25 form requests you ahve to pay) so i was wondering if anyone can help me or give me a code the email i need it to sent is AnatreDesigns@hotmail.com. if you need anything specific just let me know THANK YOU SO MUCH hello, can you please give me a sample code showing the difference between ismap and usemap. I need to give a seminar on it !!!!! Hello folks, I have written some html, xhtml possibly, which has an href to another page, the second page being in frames and in a new window. It worked fine on an Me but now in XP it won't open the 2nd window (from the link in the first) saying it can't locate file bla bla bla, check the address.... The odd thing is where there were gaps in the address which I blocked in with a " %20 " for the browser to recognise, its saying its looking for the right address but with a 25 where all the %20's are, as well as the twenties themselves, so they now appear as "html%2520code" for example. When I open the file that is the target of the link I get the typical white file not found page, but it is dividing the screen as the frames of that file tell it to do. I would appreciate somebody telling me what the error could possibly be Hi there, I m using dom with css in my web page.

Any help in this issue would be appreciable. Thanks in advance Hello, i achieved to make a neat form and all seemed to be working well. Well.. untill I tested with IE. It seems that on page 3. (The page with the 12 audio clips) When the user clicks to Submit the answers. IE fails to cooperate and proceed to the next page. Whereas Chrome and FF follow like normal.. IE does not. Is it something ive missed? Ive tested this in all IE versions 6 7 8 and 9. All fail at the same button. The form and source code can be seen here Thanks for reading. |
