Hi Guys. I am trying to create a email form in Dreamweaver MX 2004. What I want is a form that submits info to an email address. I have tried the mailto option whereby the email client is opened; but I was wondering if there is a more automatic way of sending the data to the email address without having to open up the email client.<br /><br />Thanks<!--content-->

It can be written in PHP, Perl, etc... But without the form processor all you can do is open the user's email client to send you an email with a mailto: link.<br /><br />Check out hotscripts.com for a form processing script but be aware that insecure processing scripts can be hijacked to send spam and your account will be shut down as a result.<br /><br />I cannot recommed a script to use but I am sure you can find a secure one at hotscripts.com<!--content-->
