Drop down field as subject

[Jane Here]

In a form, I have a drop down where a user chooses a topic. When the form is
emailed to me, I would like the value in the drop down to be the subject of
the email.

I put the field name DropTopic to be used as the subject, but this is not
working. I can choose any other field and it works fine. Just the drop down
field does not work. Is it possible?

Check the field name (no spaces or punctuation and case differences)
- or provide a URL

Thanks for suggestion on field name.
Works now.

you probably need an ASP script that processes the email, and will put the
subject variable in the subject field in the email program. Try
www.hotscripts.com for form/email processing scripts. other alternatives like
php and perl/cgi are available there as well, depending on your server type.
