We
make it easy to use Forms on your website. We have a pre-installed
script called Formmail which is the Web's most popular and
user-friendly form software.
Note: For secure, encrypted forms see How to create
Forms for SSL
To
use forms on your website simply insert this code into the html pages
containing your forms:
<FORM
ACTION="/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl" method=POST>
(YOU'LL NEED TO AMEND THE PORTIONS IN ALL CAPS):
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="YOUR-THANKYOU-PAGE">
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="YOUR-SUBJECT">
<input type="hidden" name="recipient"
value="YOUR-EMAIL@YOURDOMAIN.com">
NOTES: the "recipient" parameter (where the form results are mailed)
must be an email address local to your domain. If you want the
recipient to be an external email address (like you@aol.com), you must
create an Email Forwarding address (you@yourdomain.com) in the Control
Panel to forward to the external address. Then set your "recipient"
parameter to the Email Forwarding address in your forms.
LABEL
THE FIELD WHERE USERS GIVE THEIR email ADDRESS "email" AND THE NAME
"realname" -- For example:
Email Address: <INPUT TYPE="text"
NAME="email" SIZE=20 >
SPECIAL
FEATURE: To see the browser type and IP# of users submitting the form,
enter this tag into your form:
<input type=hidden name="env_report"
value="HTTP_USER_AGENT,REMOTE_ADDR">
NOTE: If you're currently using any other form script
(except fishform) then you need to change it to the above
configuration. This helps stop Spam on our server.
