I have not had the time to check out ABVFP. I would like to add a simple form to our contact page where the user has the option of selecting the recipient from a list; is this possible and how? I have checked the form actions but understand nothing.

add a combo box into your form area and enter into it the email addresses

Yes, I know that much. I guess I worded my question badly. How do I get the form to process so that it would send the form content to the user selected email address_

Ok, I saw somebody else ask this recently but I can not seem to find the post again. Just in case, I'm going 2 reword my question. I want 2 have a contact page from where the user can send an email without actually opening an email program. The page would contain: 1. a edit box; 4 the users email address 2. a drop down box where the user can select the recipients email address; so that the form gets sent 2 this address and 3. a text box 4 a short message. Is this possible; that the user can select where the form content is sent 2?

Well yes thats possible. but... you are opening yourself up for a nice account shut down first time a bot hacks your email account and sends out 500000 emails off your server. That email a friend thing is similar and its very dangerous to run without also adding several security measures.. captcha being just a minor one. Karen

Karen, Not sure what u mean; how that would have anything to do with my email account? If & when u have time 2 expand on this....this is not a pressing issue as my menue problem. Just an extra that I thought might be an interesting touch 2 our community website of retirees. We have a residential community 4 our apartment owners (not yet password protected). the idea was that they (owners) could send a quick message 2 the administrator, president & vice-president by selecting 1 of the 3 from the drop-down box.

If you use some sort of form.. its using YOUR EMAIL. If a spam bot hijacks it, which is more likely going to happen when you set a form for a user to EMAIL, you can get your account closed. Youd have to take some sort of steps to HIDE it in a password protected page/folder, as well as captcha, etc.. but even then bots can go around lots of things. Karen

I suppose that you mean that you want the user to be able to send emails to various departments within your company. At the moment this is not possible with ABVFP or with the built in form processor. The ABVFP can be easily modified to do this, with just one line of code in the right place. Contact me so i can provide you with a modified version of the file.
