I have created a form within dremaweaver and included a submit button with the correct email. I get an email with an attachement -
'POSTDATA.ATT'

What am I doing wrong?
Is it because the site isnt up yet??

I am not good with scripting and expect I am missing something very obvious!!:o

I have done a search but unable to find a clear answer.

Thanks

You haven't changed the enctype of the form, but even with this, the email won't be formatted very well. You need to write a script which will process the results for you.

What server is this form on, Windows or Linux?

Windows

ASP, ASP.NET or Coldfusion? There are some free ASP mail scripts available as well as Coldfusion. I've only done an ASP.NET script.

Not sure I understand what you mean...sorry

I am working in Dreamweaver and place a form into a table with text field for inputing and then added a submit buton within the form. How do I get the info that people type in to be sent to my email address?

You need to write a script which will collect the information from a form and then send it to a specified email address. I'm only familiar with ASP.NET & PHP. I would suggest Googling for mail scripts. If you're doing either of the two above, I could probably copy/paste a simple script to get you going.
