i'm making a website where i need visitors to my site to give me feedback. i don't like to use the mailto:, but i don't know how to program for email forms. i was wondering if anyone could help me. thank you!

what host are you using? if it's a free host then you probably need a remotly hosted one.

www.bravenet.com

you sign up, get the code and you can customize it yourself. Like adding more fields, take out fields etc.The only thing bravenet does is send the email to your own email.

Love,

i use geocities.com

found this on this page: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Pines/4845/lesson9.html (on the bottom)

Forms at GeoCities
There is one CGI script available for forms at GeoCities. It lets you send the contents of a form to your E-Mail address. Here is the format to use:

<form method=post action="/cgi-bin/homestead/mail.pl?membername

Where membername is your member name.


but other then that i dont know if geocities.com will allow cgi forms (in that way you can host your own form)

if not, try a search on the forum for "email forms"

Love,
Mirna

thanx a million i'll try that
