Hi, guys. How are you today?

Well, I'd like to ask something. Please help!
What I am making is the form, which send basic info ( name, address, comment) to my email account. This is form practice to move on to Javascript. But I already stuck.

Please see my code:

code:
<html>
<body>
<form action="MAILTO: sanukiudon13@hotmail.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">

<h3>This form sends an e-mail to sanukiudon.</h3>
Name:<br />
<input type="text" name="name" value="yourname" size="20">
<br />
Mail: <br />
<input type="text" name="mail" value="yourmail" size="20">
<br />
Comment: <br />
<input type="text" name="comment" value="yourcomment" size="40">
<br />
<br />
<input type="submit" value="Send">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>

</body>
</html>

I think it's working fine. I got some message boxes, but they were only my own email client asking me if I really wanted to send the form data via email.

If you don't want these to appear, you'll have to look into using a server-side email sending program.

Thanks a lot, mate.
This is cool, actually.
But of course I want to do it using server side scripting though.
Have a good night.
Cya.

I tried sending some data (twice, actually), and got the same message that Slime got. However, I also got a Hotmail log-in box and was then directed to Hotmail to compose a message sending you the information that should have been sent through the form. I'm not sure why this happened. It's most likely Microsoft's fault (or at least it will make me feel better to think that.)

On another note, I've been noticing a disturbing trend in your posts, specifically that you are often "ashamed" of having a problem. Now, I realize that your native culture is a shame culture (as is the culture I am living in now), but having a problem is no reason to be ashamed. If you need help in overcoming this I'll gladly work out a special shock therapy program for you.

(Either that, or the word you are looking for is "embarrassed.")

Suho: IE6 (and possibly some lower versions too) don't support mailto actions in forms. Which is why you get the empty Hotmail window. It's not clear why they did this, since there's no way a user could send an email unknowingly anyway... Grrrr.

Hiroki: Ah, don't take me seriously! Everything after the first paragraph was all in jest! And don't worry--you didn't hurt me.



quisja: How utterly ridiculous. Some days I want to rid the world of Microsucks. Thanks for the heads up, though. That explains a lot.
