Re: Form submission help - Please

You have a form and email is sent "that works all fine". Yet the email is "impossible to read". Now when we ask you for the code you have no idea what code is. No wonder google was no help to you

Let's start with a pointer to the page that is sending the mail. Maybe we can figure out what your markup and code is doing.

Sorry about the delay, project side tracked for a bit.

Never said, "I have no idea what code is", thank you very much. I said, "That's the issue: What code? Am I supposed to be using Perl, ASP, Cold Fusion, Python, Jello?", as in: What TYPE of code should I be using for this project (if any at all)?

This is the HTML I am using: form method="post" action="mailto:thisguy@thiscompany.com"

I suggest you use this version of FormMail:
»nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml

Bobcat-
So far FormMail looks good. Do you have any experience with this program (script)?

The script works well. I'm using a modified version from my web hosting provider. I believe the big concern is preventing people from modifying the recipient. I think the standard script has security features to restrict who the mail can be sent to.

I'm using the following fields:
    •recipient•subject•required•env_report•print_blank_fields•return_link_url•return_link_title•bgcolor•text_color•link_color•vlink_color•alink_color•realname•email•comments
Hope this helps!

Thanks again Bobcat!

I am using this only internally, and we do not host any web sites externally, so I should be good with the defaults as well as a few of the ones mentioned in your post.
