  1. Hi,

    I'm trying to create a simple form to register kids for my basketball league. I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 and cannot get the form results to send to my e-mail. I have put the mailto:myemail.com (but my actual e-mail) in the Action space, left method to POST and changed the enctype to text/plain. I'm pretty sure I set up the form correct but am new to Dreamweaver and really don't know for sure. I've included the code below if it helps. Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Dennis

    <form action="mailto:[email protected]" method="post" enctype="text/plain" name="Registration" target="_self" id="Registration" onsubmit="MM_validateForm('Player Name','','R','Contact Name','','R','Contact's E-Mail Address:','','RisEmail','Contact's Phone Number','','RisNum','Players Date of Birth','','RisNum','Player's Current Grade','','RisNum','Players School','','R','Prior AAU Team','','R','Additional Comment','','R');return document.MM_returnValue;MM_validateForm('Player's Name','','R','Contact's Name','','R','Contact's E-Mail Address','','RisEmail','Contact's Phone Number','','R','Player's Date of Birth','','R','Player's Current Grade','','RisNum','Name of Player's Winter Team/School','','R','Prior AAU Team','','R','Additional Comments','','R');return document.MM_returnValue">

    i did some research on the net and people do not recommend using this type of client side form processing (according to the posting, this doesn't work on all browser). I didn't get to validate these claims though.

    If you have some back ground in ASP / ASP.NET, you may want to use a form processor.

    Check this one out.

    Bruce,
    Thanks for the help. I'll give it a try and see if I can figure it out. Have a great night.
