Mail Form prob

[Alfasys]

Hello,

I do have a little but annoying problem concerning a mail form.

I would like to use some required fields.
The form is used in a standard htm file which is called within an iFrame.

The code is as following :

<form action="http://***/cgi-bin/mailto.exe" method="post">
<input type=hidden name="sendto" value="***@***.***">
<input type=hidden name="email" value="***">
<input type=hidden name="server" value="10.0.0.5">
<input type=hidden name="subject" value="Invulformulier">
<input type=text name="name" size="58">
.
.
.
<input type="hidden" name="resulturl" value="http://***/***/***.htm">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
<input type="reset" value="Clear form">
</form>

I used following codes to try to create a required field, but neither of them works :

<input type=required:text name="name" size="58">

or

<input type=hidden name="required" value="name,...">

Can someone please help me?
Thank you.

Jeeze, seems kinda of dangerous this tag:

<input type=hidden name="sendto" value="***@***.***">

think if a spam bot went arround and harvestted these (if they don't already.)

hi Alfasys, welcome to webmasterworld [webmasterworld.com].

your question is little unprecise so it's not easy to help. please consult the manual of your mailto script, what the exact mechanism for creating required fields is.

anyway the following code does not work because that type of an input field does not exist:

<input type=required:text name="name" size="58">

Thank you for the support, after looking a little closer to the input attributes I found the problem.
This is the right code :

<INPUT type="hidden" NAME="name_required" value="Please enter your name.">

I think I'm going to use Dundas Mailer in the future. This will be faster, has more features to configure and is ASP based.
