Ive created a form in Dreamweaver but how can I make the submit bettuon email an email address?
 
sorry, I am using Dreamweaver 3
 
What you need is to add the action to it :

Code:
<form [b]action=&quot;mailto:somebody@microsoft.com&quot;[/b]>
Name : <input type=&quot;text&quot;><br />
E-mail : <input type=&quot;text&quot;><br />
<input type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Send E-mail&quot;>
</form>

You add that in the <body? tag, right where the <form> properties are defined. You should already have a <form> tag on you're page...
Just add the extra stuff in the <form> tag...action=&quot;mailto:somebody@microsoft.com&quot; I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
 
Does this require CGI hosting on your server? Also I've heard from another forum if you do something like this a alert comes up. This is probably different. Anyhow all responses would be appreciated.
 
No you don't need CGI or anything... I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
