Hello webmaster.
I need help for the html code. Can you submit form to two adminstrators then instead one adminstrator. What is the html code for sending two people receive the same form.
thanks

I am not sure that there is html code to send the information like you want. Each html form has only one action. I think your best bet is to use mailto: as your form action and send the data to a email address that can auto forward to both admins.

Correct, the form has a single action, but you would use the receiving script to do your multiple send.

For example, a perl mailer would send mail something like this:

open (MAIL,"¦ /path_to_mail_program -t");
print MAIL qq/To: admin@yoursite.com
From: whoever filled out form
Subject: subject

Mail body
/;
close(MAIL);

You could loop through this several times, changing the "to: value, or add a cc or bcc (preferred) to the header info:

open (MAIL,"¦ /path_to_mail_program -t");
print MAIL qq/To: admin@yoursite.com
cc: address1 visible to recipient, address2
bcc: address 1 invisible to recipient,address2 also invisible
From: whoever filled out form
Subject: subject

Mail body
/;
close(MAIL);

(Edit: forum software changes the single pipes to a broken pipe, so ¦ represents the unbroken pipe character on your keyboard, shift - \)

MY EYES! I'M BLIND! :-D

That looks like Front Page code or a Microsoft Word-generated page, which is the same thing. Front page operates differently than other programs, it is an enigma unto itself.

You may have a little better luck with this over in the WYSIWYG [webmasterworld.com] forum, as there are a few Front Page users over there that may be of help.

Sorry I can't be of more help, front page is a Black Box to me, I avoid it at all costs.
