Hello:

I created a form in FrontPage 2003. Now I have to collect the information
from the user and email the results. I've done this before using ASP and
ASPMail, but I've never done it in FrontPage. What tools FrontPage has for
it? Can I do it without any programming, or I need to write an ASP script?
Is there a good article about it (I couldn't find much information in Help)?

I would appreciate your advice.

Thank you,
 
Peter,

If your server supports FP Extensions you can use FP.

Right Click the form > Form Properties

In the Send to, insert the e-mail address

Select Options> and you can configure more details.

Hope it helps

Well yes and no. you need a form handler unless the server you use fully
support frontpage. Which most of them for some reason don't.
 
In FP Help see using Forms and Databases
You can use the std FP forms handler if your site has the FP SE,
or you can use ASP for custom forms handling

Thanks, Chuck.

Yes, my web hosting provider has full FP support. I think most providers
have just server like Apache, because it's cheap, and use an excuse for it
that Microsoft technologies are not secure.
