Submitting forms results to multiple people

I have a question. Can form results be sent to different people based on what is selected in the form?

I need to create a web based form that our end users can access via our "intranet" to request a variety of different access options. Like network access, "internet" access, and various accesses to different programs we support. Like email access for example.

I would like to create the form so that multiple people will get emailed based on what the user has selected in the form. This is important because different people are responsible for setting up different types of access. For example our network admin is responsible for setting up users on the network, while a different person is responsible for setting up email accounts.

So I want to create a form that would notify separate people (via email) based on what options they check off or fill out in the form. For example if they request just internet access then only one person would get emailed, but if they check both internet and email then two separate people would get emailed upon submission of the form.

Hope that makes sense. I'm not very good at html so detailed answers would help :)
 
Yes, but not when using the FP Form Handler, the form process must be
handled via a custom server-side script.

Ok.... as stated before I'm not vary good at html so i'm probably in way over my head here. In fact i know I am because I've no idea what you mean. Can you be more specific or lead to a place I can learn more about this script you mentioned.
 
The problem is that a script would have to be custom written to meet your
needs, I know of no pre-written scripts. (I work with VBScript/Classic ASP)

First you have to determine what server-side scripting language is support
on the server that is hosting the web site, such as ASP, PHP, etc. Then you
have to be willing to learn how to code in that scripting language or hire
someone to write the script for you.
