Hello
Ive been lingering the site for a little while now trying to view some previous posts about forms and email.

Im a cut and dry HTML person. I dont use java or css or anything else. Maybe I should, but I cant seem to grasp all the code like I can with HTML.


So I have this site that i want to create for this game clan for Lineage 2. Its a MMORPG. I put up only the application because this is my problem: When the application is filled out and ready to be sent, I can send it but the default email program pops up (internet connection wizard) and requests information. I am wondering if this happens with everyone.

If so, how can I make it so that when someone presses the Submit button, it sends the information to my email without opening the default email service program? Would the internet connection wizard have to be filled out?

Im pretty sure it might have to do something with MY PC,not neccessarily anyone elses.

Heres the link: http://angelfire.com/ak5/usmclan (http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/usmclan)

It just has the application, which is what im trying to get right.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chad

PS - How do I take off OVERWRITE when making this thread? I wanted to go back and add something but it overwrited it.

It's the mailto:youremail that does that.
If you don't want it to happen you'll have to use a formmail script. Since you're using angelfire it would have to be a remotely hosted one.
You can get one at http://bravenet.com

Im wondering if theres a way to do it without scripts.

Plain and simple HTML is what im looking for.

If not, it seems http://bravenet.com seems to have alot of useful tools.

Its going in my Favorites! :)

Thanks

It's not exactly a script, all you have to do is sign up and replace a few lines of code.
Other than the formmail and mailto, I don't think there is a way to set up an email form.
