Submit Button Email Problems

[Guest]

Hi all,

Have a submit button in a word doc, and have associated properties to submit to email address. My issue is that is opens an email for user to send, does not attached the form.

I would like the user to click the submit and the form is auto emailed to dedicated email address as attachement. I am confused with the action contol, have tried both the following; and unable to acheive my desired result. Unfortunatley has to be a word document, any suggestions?

Action - mailto: (e-mail address removed)
Action - <FORM> mailto: (e-mail address removed)

Appreciate assistance.
Jenn

Hi Jenn,

If you are building with FrontPage, then create your form with FrontPage.

I have tutorials here to help you get started with FP forms.

You should use FrontPage to create the form, not Word.
That way, you avoid going through the visitor's email
program, and you can configure the recipient address to
be whatever you want.

If the Web server is running the FrontPage Server
Extensions, you can configure the whole form right in the
FrontPage GUI. Otherwise, you'll need to consult your Web
hosts support pages for sample HTML that uses whatever
mailing software they support.
