Newsletter Subscription

Hi,

I'm trying to create a newsletter subscription, but usinf a form box it
seems that it's not working... I upload the web site to a server, and
nothing...
Buy the way, anyone knows how to get and insert a google mailing list
subscription in the web site?\

Thanks in advance!

Personally, I would just use an email to request a newsletter subscription,
but if you want a form then reference: Publisher web publication forms 101:

and then you will probably need to review HTTP uploading protocol and
perhaps troubleshooting:

You can generate email links where the subject is already filled in, such as
"newsletter subscription request" or some such. Perhaps google for "Mailto
Link Generator" for some possibilities, or just adapt the following to
create your own manually. Use the insert html code fragment:
<a href=mailto:[email protected]?subject=Newsletter Request>Email Us</a>

Or enter this directly when adding the hyperlink email address:
(e-mail address removed)?subject=Newsletter Request

As per your other question, it appears that a "google mailing list" is
google based, not your website based:
