Mailto Problem

Phayes · #1 07-14-2006, 05:25 AM

I have successfully created my form page and have put in on my web server, it comes up fine, but unless you have outlook on your computer you can't send the completed information out.

most probably because you put mailto:yourmail@yourdomain in the action of your form.
Provide your URL so we can take a look or search in this forum for form mailto tutorial

Nyoman is correct, you have set the form action to : method="POST" action="mailto: ??????enture********.com" . You need to use a php script to process your info, otherwise both you and many of your visitors will have the same pronlem. Have a look at : http://www.netisopen.com/computer/TF001/phpmailto.html
