Attach Document to Form

Using Front Page 2002

In a form to post to email, I want the person to be able to attach another
document. (a resume).
I know he can paste it in a textarea field, but it won't look the same as it
does on his original document.
Is there a way to attach a word document?

Not when using the FP form Handler, if hosted on a Windows IIS server with the FP2002 extensions and
if the web host allows uploads, then you use the FP File Upload function of FP2002 and FP2003.
Otherwise you have to use server-side scripting based on what is supported by your web host, and
your web host must allow to have uploads.

Yes - use the "File" form field type in FP2002/2003. This assumes your host
allows anonymous users to upload files to their server, and that the feature
is enabled in the server ext (requires Server Ext for FP2002).

As per my other reply, I forgot to add the "File" field type *uploads* the
file to a folder on your web server, it doesn't send as an attachment to
your email address.
