Form results sent to e-mail

[Guest]

Is there a way to have the e-mailed form results to look more like the form
on the web page? It seems like it bunches the data together when the e-mail
arrives and we have to sort it out.

Not using the FP Form handler.

Custom server-side scripting can do this. This method also
negates the oppurtunity for spam-bots to get your email
address

Hi Mike, That sounds like just what I want to do ie: send a formatted page
identical to the confirmation page to an email address (or alternatively save
it as a unique file on the server). So as a fairly new person to web design,
can you explain how I can find and implement 'custom server side scripting' -
and what is it?

Or is this going to be beyond a beginner.

IMHO, after looking at your page; I would probably forgo
using email and instead I would put all of the information
into a database (ie Access). This will keep all of the
applications in one spot and you would be able to use an
Access Report to lay everything out nicely.

Sure, it could be done via email, but it is beyond a
beginner, and would take an experienced person some time to
do it

Thanks Mike. I will look into the database idea. I think that might be
something that would work for us.

Thats good advice, I will have to learn Access now!
