Problems with e-mailing a form

A

Adrianintheuk

I have produced a form on my website. The 'Frontpage' way of e-mailing the
data did not work at all so I have replaced the code with

form action="mailto:p[email protected]?subject=Prayer Request"
method="POST"
name="EmailResponseForm"
enctype="text/plain">

as shown in the Dummies guide!

When the 'mail form' button is pressed it now gives a pop up 'sending as an
e-mail' warning, and then creates an e-mail which is duly delivered to my
in-box. However none of the data from the form is in the e-mail. What am I
doing wrong?

Any help very much appreciated! Many thanks

Adrian

Make sure that all of the form fields are between the opening and closing form tags.

Also you can not suppress the warning message.

If a user doesn't have a email application installed/configured to work with their browser then they
will not be able to use your form.

You need to make sure that the FrontPage Server Extensions are installed on
the web server and that it's set up to send email. Contact your ISP and ask
them to set up the server extensions to send email
