How To Create A Form? That Will Email Itself To Me When Filled Out

3 replies
I'm sure you've seen this before.

It's just a basic form, with text boxes that someone can fill out, and when they hit submit the form goes to an email address.

I know how to use frontpage and everything - I just need to know the HTML code for this form so I can edit it for my website.

Can someone please share this

Couldn't find it anywhere else, thanks!

    Look up "HTML form" in google. If you are using Wp there are plugins like contactform that can create it for you.

    I recommend using Wufoo. You can create really nice looking forms and they even have a free plan.

    Hi Mike,

    Most CPanel hosts support the formmail script. All you need to do is put in one necessary HTML line and you can setup a customizable form that will email you the results.

    The necessary line is:

    <form name="(whatever you want to call it)" action="/cgi-sys/formmail.pl" METHOD="POST">

    After that, you can customize it however you want. A list of customizable options are available below. (Only look at the section entitled "Form Configuration" if you want HTML only):
