Need Help with Form Action Tags

I'm not sure how to add in action tags so that data submitted through forms is received. I would like submitted data to be sent to an e-mail address. I'm using Dreamweaver to build the site. If you can tell me what and where to add action tags for these forms, I'd really appreciate it.

Here's a picture of the two forms:



Any suggestions?

Thank you~

 

Each of your <input> fields should have a name assinged to them:
ie: <input type="text" name="username">

if form method="post"
then user the $_POST[''] var, like this:
in php, and im assuming you are using php to process the form:

$foo = $_POST['usernam'];

that is how to access the input value

now to process the actual login, that is a whole diff ballgame

 

yes this is correct... With Dreamweaver 8/cs3/cs4 these options are built into the forms options.
************************
Inserting standard buttons:
Place the insertion point inside the form outline.
Select Insert > Form > Button.
A button appears in the form.
In the Property inspector, set the button properties as desired.
***********************
Inserting HTML form menus:
Place the insertion point inside the form outline.
Select Insert > Form > List/Menu.
A menu appears in the document.
In the Property inspector, set the menu properties as desired.


hope this helps?

 

Here's the code as it is now (design picture above). This is how the template comes, so what do I add/change so that submitted data is sent to an e-mail address?

<table width="223" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td height="30" align="left" valign="top"><input name="textfield2" type="text" style="width:223px; height:18px; font-family:tahoma; font-size:10px; color:#8E7257 " value="Your name"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="30" align="left" valign="top"><input name="textfield22" type="text" style="width:223px; height:18px; font-family:tahoma; font-size:10px; color:#8E7257 " value="Your e-mail"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top"><textarea name="textarea" style="width:223px; height:68px; font-family:tahoma; font-size:10px; color:#8E7257; overflow:auto " value="Your name">Your message</textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td height="27" align="right" valign="bottom"><input name="image2" type="image" src="images/submi.gif" width="82" height="18" style="margin-right:10px "><input name="image2" type="image" src="images/reset.gif" width="82" height="18"></td>
</tr>
</table>

Thanks again~
