Sending Forms via Website

J

JCO

I'm using FrontPage 2003
If somebody created me an Order Form either in Excel or PDF, is there a way
for my users to fill it out on the screen and click send... to send it to a
specified email address?

I've tried forms before w/FrontPage and could not get them to work.

Thanks in advance

No. The user would have to download, complete then attached to an email message back to you.

Hi,

Can you please explain more details of the question? Do you want to create
a web form which allows users attach their excel or pdf files and then
submit them to specified email address?

This is possible. However you should create your own web form instead of
using FrontPage's form handler. Below is a sample of ASP.

What if my server does not use ASP. Unfortunately, my server does use PHP &
MySQL (which I know nothing about).
Thanks

Then you have to learn how to do it using what is supported by your web host or switch web host.
