Using Forms

    I am pretty new to all this, but built this site from scratch in dreamweaver, fireworks, and flash. Now my boss wants a brochure request form. I can't figure out how it works. Normally I would just kinda poke around and look at other peoples scripts or html, and see how it works, but with this I am at a loss? Our sever guy says use frontpage, that will automate it, but we don't have a copy. Can anyone help me out here? Is there a free script that can aggrigate the form and email it out or can someone tell me what will make it work with a frontpage server extention? Will dreamweaver take care of this? I seem to be able to find info up to the point I want to see a script that pulls the info, and where it sends the info. I am borderline lost on this... so any help is greatly appreciated.

    Here's the site I built... It tends to be kinda bandwidth hungry...

    If you go to the brochure page you can see what I have done...

    Your problem is almost exactly the same problem which prompted me to look for a solution to....'request a product/document and then have same e-mailed automatically'. I ran across the solution about four years ago and it's one of those that works so well, I've not left it.

    Furthermore, you can use the same FREE script for a 'Contact Us' page (you can see mine at http://www.centralcityclassifieds.com/contact.html) or for the purpose you have described! It works BEAUTIFULLY in those and other capacities as well.

    The script is called 'All-In-One-Forms-Processor' and can be found here.....

    It's EASY to install and doesn't require MySQL.

    If you have any questions, feel free to post'em here or PM me. :)
