I am trying to setup some very very simple text box forms that allow the person to send the info they entered to my e-mail.

I have the form text boxes already setup. Here is the code:

<form method="post" action="mailto:sizzource@gmail.com">
<b>Online Contact Form</b>
<br><br>Full Name<br><input type="text" name="name" size="34" style="width:230px;" />
<br>Phone Number<br><input type="text" name="where" size="34" style="width:230px;" />
<br>E-mail Address<br><input type="text" name="replyemail" size="34" style="width:230px;" />
<br><input type="submit" name="submit" value=" Send ">
</form>


Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Well, I believe everything is setup correctly. However, when I fill out the information, and click send, it asks me if I want to use the e-mail on my computer to send the information to the e-mail on the website. Give it a try, and see for yourself.

I wanted to know how to set it up so when they click send, it just sends it without having to open up their e-mail client.

hmm.. well I'm not quite sure but you could try making each field a div layer, for example:

<div style="font: normal 11px Arial, Sans-Serif;">Name:<br>
<input type="text" name="name" height="10" style=" font: normal 11px Arial, Sans-Serif;"></div>

At least thats how I do my fields.. anyways, then make the submit button like this:

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"><input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset" style="margin-left: 10px;">
</form>

as you can see I'm definantly not a pro at this but I try lol

I know how to use divs and all of that but my problem is getting it to send to the e-mail I have setup without having to open the users default e-mail program.

yeah, I was thinking the problem was in the 'submit' button, try using the code I posted in my last post for the button, it might work.

Nah, still didn't work. I dunno what it could be. I might just have to find a program that makes one for me or something. If anyone else knows how to do it, please let me know. Thank you.
