Introduction
Forms on your Website can be used to collect data
from a Website and send it via E-mail to a desired
location. It can be used for adding ordering forms,
feedback forms and simple surveys.
Once you have your forms designed in your favorite
HTML editor or web design tool, getting your forms
to actually work only takes 2 easy steps.
1. Using our pre-installed forms handler
First of all, you must design your form using
your desired web design tools. Once this is done,
you must manually edit the HTML code for your
form, some web design software has this feature
built in.
You have to modify the following code on your
form page:
| <form action="/cgi/FormMail"
method = "POST"> |
That code instructs
your form to use the Jinfo form handler to process
the form.
2. Specify Recipient E-mail address
Next you must have the following line of code
after the form action tag we entered above:
<form action="/cgi/formmail"method="post">
<input type="hidden"
name="recipient" value="you@yourdomain.com">
This instructs the formmail script
where to E-mail the information entered on the
form. Be sure to change you@yourdomain.com
to your actual E-mail address.
Optional Fields:
You add optional
fields to your form to customize the functionality
of the form. For example you can require certain
fields to be completed, specify the page visitors
see after completing the form.
If you use Microsoft FrontPage, click
here for instructions without having to edit
HTML code.
