Form issues

Postby Alkah on Mon Sep 11, 2006 11:34 pm

I would appretiate if you guys could guide me through this please. Im fairly novice at HTML, and I have created this form, but when those whom fill it out hit "Submit" I want it to send me an email with the processed information.

It started this way, except that when pushing Send, it would open Outlook, which was not letting it send them email. Any ideas on how I could make it send the email to me from a premade email so that outlook doesnt open and users dont need to use their own email addresses etc to send it?

This is my current code:

Code: Select all
<form name="input" action="html_form_action.txt"
method="get"><big>  <b>Character Name:<br>
           <input type="text" name="name" value="" size="40"> <br>
          Real Life Name:<br>
           <input type="text" name="RLname" value="" size="40"> <br>
          Sex:<br>
           <input type="text" name="sex" value="" size="10"> <br>
           Valid Email:<br>
           <input type="text" name="mail" value="" size="40"> <br>
           Valid ICQ:<br>
           <input type="text" name="icq" value="" size="15"> <br>
           Do you have teamspeak? (Yes/No):<br>
           <input type="text" name="TS" value="" size="5"> <br>
           Do you have a mic? (Yes/No):<br>
           <input type="text" name="Mic" value="" size="5"> <br>
           How active are you?:<br>
           <input type="text" name="Activeness" value="" size="35"> <br>
           List any previous guilds here:<br>
           <input type="text" name="Prev Guilds" value="" size="50"> <br>
           Why should we consider you?:<br>
           <input type="text" name="Why Should we Pick U?" value=""
size="50">                <br>
           <br>
                             </b>   <b>Comment (Optional):</b><br>
           <input type="text" name="comment" value="" size="50"> <br>
                      <br>
           <input type="submit" value="Send"> <input type="reset"
value="Reset"></big>                <br>
           <br>
           By clicking "Send" Above you agree that all of the above information
    is correct and that if proven incorrect your application will be discarded
    without norice.                                                     
               </form>


I really appretiate any help!

Thanks,
Alkah

I take it you have not linked it to the server side script needed to do this then?

In order to do what you want it will take some server side script. You host will sometimes have some premade scripts you can link to otherwise you will have to find one.

Hi. I'm no expert so forgive my intrusion, but I have noticed a small typo in the final word "notice". You have put "norice". :wink:

I know it makes no difference to the way the form works, but thought I'd let you know just in case you don't pick up on it.
