YMe369 Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 When hitting Submit, I get this: There are missing fields! recipient is missing Form Dump: file: submit: Submit textfield: Seeing if i can help textfield2: 19 textfield3: human textfield4: checking-ur-form BTW, it seems that there are 2 forms, 1 which includes the fields, and 1 which contains the submit / mailto (recipient) information. OK, put the 2nd form codes behind the 1st one, after /formdata: which should result i sumting like this: <FORM name=form1 action=" http://karmacriminal.com/cgi-sys/FormMail.cgi" method=post encType=multipart/form-data><INPUT id=submit type=hidden value=mailto:mailto:lakin@adelphia.net name=submit> <INPUT type=hidden value=mailto:lakin@adelphia.net name=recipient> about "Sorry I can't send to adelphia.net . Is adelphia.net on this server", i tried it (adjusted it to my site, etc. DONT WORRY YOURS IS STILL INTACT) and it gave the same, so my guess is that you should recipient /mailto to an email account from your website (eg. lakin@karmacriminal) instead of using another email address, the submit works from your site, and Thus only TO your site... Hope i've been of some assistance, and al is clear, ask away if not, i like to help... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karmacriminal Posted April 2, 2003 Author Share Posted April 2, 2003 OH!....And when someone sends a file, where is that supposed to go? in the email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YMe369 Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 About the "page showing results add this to your form: <input type=hidden name="redirect" value="http://www.whatever-the-sites-address-was-before-hitting-submit.html">" i suggest putting it in the next line after the recipient line. OH!....And when someone sends a file, where is that supposed to go? in the email? About the filestuff, sorry, thats my problem too, but i assume, that if the upload function works, it should be sent to your mailbox i guess. Sorry with that I really cant help you, but im trying to find out how to get it to work, so if i do, ill be sure to let u know (unless you already have it covered by then) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmacriminal Posted April 2, 2003 Author Share Posted April 2, 2003 that would be great! Its seems everyone I speak with has the same problem. I guess that is a difficult function Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YMe369 Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Guess so, but i have to say that all I find are either very complicated stories or tottally different scripts, for which they wantto charge you money for, sometimes. But the hunt continues... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
