Sending Form results

[Kim]

I finally got the form to send results, however when you hit submit,
Explorer comes up with the message:

This form is being submitted using email.
Submitting this form will reveal your email address to the recipient,
and will send the form data without encrypting it for privacy.

You may continue or cancel.


This will may deter people from using it, is there any way around this?

It sounds as if you have set the form to use a mailto: to send the
form data. This will always produce that message in IE, and may not
work at all in some browsers, where an email client has not been set
up.

To avoid it, use a server-side form handler to send the email, using
either the FrontPage extensions (if your host supports the extensions
and the email transport feature - some don't), or whatever other
technology your host supports (ASP, PHP, Perl/CGI etc.). Your host
may have their own solution for sending form results by email.
