Hi !
I'm new at this forum and HTML.
I make questionnaie. My clients will send answers to me.
My code:
<form title=&quot;ankieta1-bazar&quot; action=&quot;mailto:monikaiz@wp.pl?subject=Ankieta&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot;>
<table>
QUESTIONS
</table>
<p align=&quot;center&quot;><input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Wyslij&quot; name=&quot;send&quot;>
<input type=&quot;reset&quot; value=&quot;Wyczysæ&quot; name=&quot;reset&quot;>
</form>

When they use Outlook it's OK. But when Exchange - it's not OK (the answers isn't send). Sometimes it send empty mail with empty file.
Any advice ?
Regards

Hi Monika from Warszawa (Poland),

I'm not sure about the distinction you're making between Exchange and Outlook. Exchange is a mail server and Outlook a client which is often used in conjunction with an Exchange server.

That said, I would imagine that setting your form's [tt]method[/tt] attribute to &quot;GET&quot; rather than &quot;POST&quot; might clear up some of the problems you are having. It may be that the Exchange server is configured not to allow automated emailing programs due to the high number of email worms that do similar things. Setting the form attribute to Get will allow the user to control the send of the email.

Hope this gets you somewhere,

Hi & welcome,

If your questionnaire is going to be on a web page, try and see if you can send the results from an automatically generated email instead of something your client has to click on send to submit.

Have a look here:

It also has some links at the bottom to other articles about how to solve it.
It could be that you already have something in place that will let you do it this way, you never know :)

Posting code? Wrap it with code tags: [ignore]
Code:
[/ignore][code]CodeHere
[ignore][/code][/ignore].
 
It's just after 5pm Wednesday evening here.

Yes, [tt]<form title=&quot;ankieta1-bazar&quot; action=&quot;mailto:monikaiz@wp.pl?subject=Ankieta&quot; method=&quot;GET&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot;>[/tt]

Would be the first thing I'd try.
 
Hi !
