How can I email a form that has been filled? Where can I send the form so that I can view the results?
 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If the form only has one-two inputs you can email it to yourself by setting the &lt;form action=mailto:<A HREF="mailto:you@yourisp.foo">you@yourisp.foo</A>&gt;<br>
calling the first input &lt;input name=subject&gt;<br>
and the 2nd input&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;input name=body&gt;<br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This will send you an email with their information from the first input as the subject line & their input for the second box as the body of the message.<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you need more inputs than that; contact me & I can work on getting a custom JavaScript program together for you that'll do a better job of it. <p>-Robherc<br><a href=mailto:robherc@netzero.net>robherc@netzero.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>*nix installation & program collector/reseller.

Hello:<br>
If your using a Cold Fusion server it is a breeze for a form handler for basics like name and email then this is what it would look like:<br>
&lt;cfmail to="Admin@bestdeals4u.net"<br>
from="#form.from#"<br>
subject="sign me up"&gt;<br>
this is the users info<br>
Name:#form.name# <br>
Password:#form.password# <br>
Userid:#form.userid#<br>
Alternate:#form.alternate#<br>
Url to redirect to:#form.redirect_to#<br>
Subdomain if requested:#form.subdomain#<br>
IP to point requested domain to:#form.IP#<br>
New or modify:#form.account#<br>
How did you find us:#form.how_found#<br>
&lt;/cfmail&gt;<br>
and by reversing that #form.variable# to their address then you can have it reply to them all at the same time around to point to
