I remember it was super easy, but I can't find it in any notes or anything. I created a form for my Contact Us page. I cannot remember what to do about when the person clicks on the submit button, WHERE the info goes, coding. I know in Dreamweaver is it dummy proof, but I am completely Dummied! Please, someone help. I saw a couple of previous posts about Form Creator websites, but I don't want to put their info on my site (makes me look like I don't know how to do it) Irony Huh!!! Thank you.

Looks something like this: <form action="formproc/formproc.php" method="post" name="EditingForm" target="_top" onsubmit="return validate()"> <input type="hidden" name="env_report" value="REMOTE_HOST,REMOTE_ADDR ,HTTP_USER_AGENT,AUTH_TYPE,REM OTE_USER" /> <input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="your email" /> <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Add me to the mailing list" /> <input type="hidden" name="good_url" value="thanks.html" /> __________________ Mary H.

So you will have to know some sort of server side programming language, the most popular one is PHP. You can, download a free script to do this and here is a great start: http://www.hotscripts.com/category/p...rm-processors/ If you want to do this, find a free one with good rating... __________________ "Imagination is more important than knowledge."
