Generic HTML Forms and Mailto Question 1

sgore · Sep 4, 2002

I have a list box that includes four items:
for example:
Alpha
Beta
Chi
Delta

I want to use the selected value of the list box in the
TO and/or CC section of the mailto program. I would like to append it to
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="CC" VALUE="<<APPEND LIST Value HERE>>@somewhere.com">

Can this be done? If so can someone please let me know how..

Thanks,

not with asp but a simple javascript will do it.
something like
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function giveValue(plc) {
frm.CC.value = plc + frm.CC.value;
alert(frm.CC.value); /*test*/
}
</script>
</head>
<boby>
<form name="frm">
<select name="plc" onBlur="giveValue(frm.plc.options[frm.plc.selectedIndex].value);">
<option value="alpha">Alpha
<option value="beta">Beta
<option value="chi">Chi
<option value="delta">Delta
</select>
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="CC" VALUE="@somewhere.com">
</form>
</body>
</html>
