Hi Tim, David
I hope you guys can direct me on this.
Here is the example from the guys at hostmonster:
MonsterMail
The form mailer requires that you have a basic knowledge of HTML forms. The form mailer has the following options that can be configured for your use.
–sendtoemail - This is the email address that the completed form will be mailed to. (Required)
Example <input type=“hidden” name=“sendtoemail” value=“email@hidden”>
–text - If you set this value to 1 emails will be sent in plain text instead of HTML. (Not required)
Example <input type=“hidden” name=“text” value=“1”>
–redirect - This is the URL that you want the user sent to AFTER submitting the form. (Not required)
Example <input type=“hidden” name=“redirect” value=“http://www.redirect url”>
–subject - Enter what you would like the subject to be, or it will have
the default “Message from MonsterMail”. (Not required)
Example <input type=“hidden” name=“subject” value=“Website information Request”>
–mailfrom - This will make the mail sent to ‘sendtoemail’ be ‘From:’ ‘mailfrom’. (Not required)
Example <input type=“text” name=“mailfrom”>
–file_attachment - This will provide an upload box for a user to attach a file to the email. (Not required)
Example <input type=“file” name=“file_attachment”>
Each of the examples above can be placed into the sample form below.
<form action=“http://www.hostmonster.com/monstermail” enctype=“multipart/form-data” method=“POST”> Name: <input type=“text” name=“Name”><br> Email: <input type=“text” name=“mailfrom”><br> Street Address: <input type=“text” name=“StreetAddress”><br> City: <input type=“text” name=“City”><br> Zip: <input type=“text” name=“Zip”><br> Phone: <input type=“text” name=“Phone”><br> <input type=“hidden” name=“sendtoemail” value=“email@hidden”><br> <input type=“submit” value=“Send Email”> </form>
If you do not specify a REDIRECT page then the default page that the user filling out the form would see would look like the page shown below.
Thank you for completing our form.
The following info was sent to email@hidden:
and shows as from email@hidden (the value of the mailfrom input field)
Field Value
Phone test
StreetAddress test
Zip tteest
City test
mailfrom email@hidden
Name test
Thank you very much for your useful suggestions.
PS: I haven’t tried David’s suggestion for setting a page for each error yet. By the way when setting this one page per error do I have to select the error page from the drop down menu or leave it as is “none”.
