From web to personal e-mail?

**gulliver** · May 10th, 2001, 03:32 AM

Looking for the HTML code that enables a web page form to be sent to an e-mail address,

Can anyone help?

Thanx

No - that opens up e-mail client.

I want to send the form fields directly to an e-mail address as soon as the user hits the submit button. Ison't want Outlook to open up.

Please help!

It works fine on my machine but then I don't use outlook!

Sorry!

Ahh that could be the reason!

Can you use ASP, or does it need to be client side?

Try www.bravenet.com

It offers form to email service..

For all other services bravenet uses banner advertising..
and luckily for you this one is exempted..

and i've got to say.. Bravenet is very reliable and cool.. it even gave me a $50 discount on bidz.com auctions!!

I believe you have to use server-side code to send a form via email, as different web browsers handle the mailto differently.

If you are still interested, this site has a great form processing ASP script: http://www.brainjar.com/asp/formmail/

I think you are suck using server-side script. as all the mailto: scripts open up email programs. you could also use PHP if ASP doesn't work. there are a few cool email scripts for that as well.
