Emailing Forms

[kazbo]

I've written the following code but when I try and fill the form in and click the submit button, it comes up with a warning that the form is going to be emailed and this will allow your email addres to be revealed to the recipient, and then it brings up an empty new message window. If I click send here I just get an empty email, but no form.

Anyone got any ideas what i've done wrong or how I can make it work.

<form action="mailto:idb@holtandlongworth.**.uk" method="post" enctype="text/plain">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" >
<tr>
<td colspan = 4><h1><center>Business Matters Enquiry Form</center></h1></td></tr>
<tr>
<td colspan = 4><b><font face="times new roman" size="3"><br>Please fill in all relevant details:<p></b></font></td></tr>

<input name="" type="need to fill this in" size="also need to add a size" value="">
now it should work.

enctype="text/plain" is a nice little add-on for formatting the output that I didn't know about.

If you use a form action of mailto you will get that warning. You will need to make use of your server's cgi bin to stop the warnings.
