I’m not seeing it, but then I’m not logged in. Here’s what I am
guessing they are asking you to do:

Because you’re logged in, they know your e-mail address. They want you
to enter the e-mail address of one or more of your friends, and then
they can spam them, too.

You can certainly build this in Freeway, and it’s up to you whether
you want it to be creepy or not – to store the friend addresses when
they’re gathered, or to be up-front about not storing them, and to use
them purely for the moment you need them, store them in memory only,
and discard them after the e-mail is sent. (My favorite idea,
personally.)

There’s two different approaches you can take: you can do this in
JavaScript, which is kind of brittle for this, since you have to rely
on the visitor’s browser->e-mail connection. The other way is with PHP
or another scripting language. I’d recommend that path personally.

Make a form with 6 fields:

  • [your_name]
  • [your_email]
  • [friend_name]
  • [friend_email]
  • [personal_message] (textarea, optional)
  • [send] (submit button)

Be sure to label the fields and put a disclaimer that you’re not
storing this, not being creepy. Watch carefully for how I named the
fields, underscore and lower-case, no spaces, no numbers, no other
punctuation. The square brackets are for illustration purposes here,
they are not actually part of the name of the field.

Change your page’s filename to end in .php.

In the Page / HTML Markup dialog, move to the Before HTML section, and
type in the PHP delimiters:

<?php

?>

You will put all of your code inside that block, but for now, just
leave it empty. For initial testing, use the Page / Form Setup to POST
the form to my reflector script (set the Action to Reflector)
.

Upload the page to your server, browse to it, fill in the form, and
see what you see in the reflector when you submit it.

I’ll post more later, but this should get you started. Failing early
will hep the process go faster!

See if they offer widgets you can use for that. I’m not sure what the
deal is with those. You’d probably be getting well into the creepy
zone, with either of those services.
