email from a form

email from a form

am 12.09.2007 17:39:09 von Ray Kinserlow

I have a form that I have set to email me some text back. The problem
is their is +'s instead of spaces in the email I get back. Is there
anyway to send just plain text in a action="mailto:
somebody@somewhere.com" attribute in the form tag.

Regards,
Ray

No the problem is that you are using action="mailto:... instead of
sending it your a server-side script, CGI, PHP, ASP... Search this group
and you will see this described many times. Depending on your server
Google for a mailing script. Many hosting companies provide a
preinstalled one for you is you are a newbie.

Ok, I get the idea. I never really liked the mailto: thingie anyway.
I have implemented a cgi mail handler by using html code and handler
from www.response-o-matic.com . For the price of a little advertising
I get a form that has a cgi handler.
