Are you trying to implement the mail form with CGI, PHP, ASP or some other technology? I think a user in the other thread asked you -- can you tell us?

kyrnt,

this is it - i don't know what i'm doing! i can't find any articles on email forms that are informative enough. what technology should i be using?

neil,

I would say PHP -- but you need to be on a server that supports it (most UNIX/Linux web servers do). See the second post in this thread:

i copied the html into my page. got that bit.

and then i created a document and saved it as mailit.php

but i didnt understand the bit about you breaking it in half. did i do it right?

sorry again for hassling you!

neil

btw

my host is php 4 compatible.

I tried your page and tried to send myself an email and I got this message:

Warning: mail, ini_alter, ini_restore, ini_set, exec, passthru, system, popen, leak, mysql_list_dbs, listen, chown, chmod, chgrp, diskfreespace, rmdir, realpath, tmpfile, link, imap_mail() has been disabled for security reasons in mailit.php on line 16
Mail sent unsuccessfully.

It would appear as though your host has disabled the mail() function "for security reasons." You may want to contact them and see if you can have it enabled.

ok, will do

thanks
