email form

[janet24]

I'm trying to get form information to an email. Do you recommend any free email form programs or low cost packages that include an automatic response? I've tried Mail Manage EX but found sometimes it gives me a blank email.

If the server can't handle cgi or php is there any other way to send form information to an email?

Yes - if your server supports anothher scripting language, such as ASP or JSP.

How about you tell us what your server DOES support?

Hope this helps,

I believe they support asp.

Assuming I had a choice of learning something for email and they could process it on their server what would be the easist thing to learn?

The easiest way would be to get an existing script.

Do a search on Google for "asp formmail" or similar terms.

Hope this helps

With CDO sending e-mails with asp is simple.

That depends entirely upon your learning ability and aptitude. You cannot ask us to make a decision about that.

Personally I find PHP much easier to get along with than ASP, but that's probably because I've not really been involved in business IT world.

Thanks for your responses. I should try asp since I know it just a little. It costs more to use it on my server however. I know nothing about PHP. Are they pretty much the same in concept? What's the advantages over ASP.

Thanks again...
