    Question

    I want to mail the contents of a form, and I need to do this using the mailto Action of the form, but I would also like my form to jump to a new page afterwards that displays confirmation that the mail has been sent. Any ideas?

    Do you mean strcitly HTML ?

    What I mean is, how do you send the Email ? using ASP ?

    I can't use ASP for this one. So I have to use the following

    <form Name="InputForm" ONSUBMIT="return Validate()" METHOD="POST"
    ACTION="mailto:[email protected]" ENCTYPE="text/plain" align="center">

    Is there any way I could force a jump to a new page after the e-mail is sent?

    Well I read up on this and apparently it is not possible and what is needed is to set up a hidden form on the page and submit that one instead and then set a timer to refresh the current page.
    Thanks anyway Asabi
