Same thing as all the others....

Just switched to Dreamweaver.

Created a form on my websites Contact Us page.

Cant figure out how to make the form info go to my email.

My site is hosted by GoDaddy and I have the gdform.asp file on my local files as well as on the hosting side.

What the heck do I need to do to make this work?????

Thanks

If you want to use the gdform, all you do is post your for to gdform.asp

<form name="email" action="/gdform.asp" method=post>

The gdform.asp takes all the fields in the form and sends them in an email to the email address you specify in the godaddy site control panel.

Got it! Thanks!

Now how about adding a browse button so people can attach a file. I got the browse button on there and it lets you attach a file but when I recive the email there is no attachment. Any help is appreciated, Thanks

hmm. good question. I've never used the gdform for attachments. I'll take a look at it today and let you know what i find.

It looks like you cant us the gdform.asp to include attachments. What i might suggest is to use CDOSYS (a custom email script) to attach your files. A quick google searched turned up this promising script

if you need help customizing it, just let us know.

Thanks,

Im kind of a dummy when it comes to this stuff.....Im another one of those Graphic Designers turned web designer.

Here is my Contact Us page where I have the form.

All I want is someone to be able to attach a .jpg and have it go to:

info@buckwildadventures.com

Where do I input this into the script you sent me? and how would I aply this to my page. Any help or direction with this is appreciated

THANKS!!!!!!

Hi all.

I'm having EXACTLY the same issue! I too am a graphic designer, I don't consider myself having "turned" web designer because I know so little! But I am building a site because I'm too poor to hire out!

I also need to upload images on a form mail and I'm trying to see if I can do this through GoDaddy rather than outsourcing and again, having to pay for it! Did you ever get anywhere on that?

I tend to use PHP to upload files and the form sends a link to an area of webspace where the image was uploaded to. I always find asp a hell of a lot more difficult, if i see something, i'll let you know.

Hi!!!

I am having a very similar problem< i can't get the gdform to work with ANYTHING!!

Here is my current code.

<form action="http://www.kandela.cc/gdform.asp" method="post" name="email" id="email" value="contactus@stoddendesign.com">
<div align="left"><br />
<table width="278" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<th width="93" height="93" valign="top" scope="row"><div align="left">Name
<br />
<input type="text" name="Name" id="Name" />
<br />
E-mail<br />
<label>
<input type="text" name="emailaddress" id="emailaddress" />
</label>
<br />
</div></th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th valign="top" scope="row"><div align="left">Comments<br />
<textarea name="Additional Info" cols="30" rows="4" id="Additional Info"></textarea>
</div></th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th height="96" valign="top" scope="row"><div align="left"><br />
<input type="reset" name="Reset" id="Reset" value="Clear Form" />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Submit Form" />
</div></th>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div align="left"></div>
</label>
<label></label>
</form>

when I hit submit it says Error creating file! Directory may not be writable or may not exist.
Unable to process request.

Am I doing something wrong?

I currently do a weekly email to my customer base of about 1500 using GoDaddy. I am limited to 250 relays out per day so i have set up mulitple email accounts to accomodate the need. Godaddy says there is a code that i can use to send the email only once and it will go to all, any ideas as to what this is?

Actually what I had to do to set the gdform was go into the hosting control panel for my employers site/ then go to content not settings/ form mail there you can set the email address you want your form mailed too. Then changed the form submit method to post to gdform as ExpressoDan said and wallah! My form created in Frontpage and code copied to an html page I created using css works like a champ, thanks to all who have posted here, and all who have responded. All I had to do was search the threads to find the info I needed to make this work.
