I know a form cant do 2 actions, but thats what I need to do.

[seeker111]

Firstly I'd like to apologise for my previous post.. I have a form that submits peoples websites to search engines, I also want the info that is submited with the site subbmission to be emailed to me, how do I go abotu this

<form

action="mailto:homebusinessresourcec

enter@dodo.com.au" Method=post

name="emailform" onSubmit="return

validateform( this.form )"

enctype="text/plain">

<action="http://websitesubmit.hyperm

art.net/free/submit.cgi"

method="POST"><input type="hidden"

name="action" value="submit"><input

type="hidden" name="thankyou"

value="yes">

this what I am trying to use now, though I know kkknow I cant do two actions in a form, how do I get around this.
Thanks
Brett

What about editing your CGI script to email the data to you?

Aronya1, that seems to be seeker111's dilema, according to the action of the site-submission form, it appears that he is using a ready-made free-hosted script of which he has no configuration capabilities...

<form action="http://websitesubmit.hypermart.net/free/submit.cgi" method="POST">

"I see," said the blind man. In other words, the script isn't on his site, so he can't make changes?

Why not just use a bit of javascript to submit two forms. Something like this:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function doit(){
document.moveme.submit();
document.moveyou.submit();
}
-->
</SCRIPT>

<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="/cgi-bin/yourscript.pl" NAME="moveme" >
<INPUT TYPE="text" VALUE="Enter your email address here">
<INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="Go" onClick=doit()>
</FORM>
<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="cgi-bin/yourscript.pl" NAME="moveyou" >
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" VALUE="whatever">
</FORM>

Then, the user would submit the first form, and the JS function would then submit both the hidden and visible form. Just a thought...

I asked the same question in the java script forum, I have a form and want it to save it as a file in my web shell that it currently does as a savefile.txt and I also want it to send me by e-mail as well. I tried many tags such as <FORM action=/cgi-bin/script_library/form_handler_file method=post,mail> before the form and at the end I put <INPUT type=hidden
value=johndoe@stic.net name=email_to>

It didnt work
