mail form problems

[minnow]

Hi,
I am having problems getting this mail form to work. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix it?

Here is the script on the page:

<form id="form" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="td_1">
<div><input type="text" value=" name" onfocus="this.value=''" /></div>
<div><input type="text" value=" e-mail" onfocus="this.value=''" /></div>
<div><input type="text" value=" phone" onfocus="this.value=''" /></div>
<div><input type="text" value=" address" onfocus="this.value=''" /></div></td>
<td class="td_2"><div><textarea cols="30" rows="40" onfocus="this.value=''"> message</textarea></div>
<div class="tar"><a href="#" onclick="getElementById('form').reset()"><img src="images/clear_new.jpg" alt="Clear" width="47" height="16" /></a><img src="images/spacer.gif" width="18" height="1" alt="" /><a href="#" onclick="getElementById('form').submit()"><img src="images/send_new.jpg" alt="Send" width="46" height="16" /></a></div></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form></td>

and my form mail is called iopost.pl and is in the cgi bin.

Thanks!
:confused:

You need to enter the path to iopost.pl in the form tag.

Kelly and Ryan, thanks for your replies :)
Emails are now coming through. Only problem is, none of the data ie name, address, message is attached to the email. When you click on submit, a page shows giving info on what you have submitted, nothing shows there either. Also, I could do with knowing how to change the subject title too.
Any ideas? Attached is the iopost.pl file content saved as a .txt file.
Thanks for your help.

None of your fields have "names". They should look like this:


<input type="text" name="name" onfocus="this.value=''" />
<input type="text" name="email" onfocus="this.value=''" />

. . . instead of what you have, which is this . . .
<input type="text" value=" name" onfocus="this.value=''" />
<input type="text" value=" e-mail" onfocus="this.value=''" />


As for the subject:

<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Subject Goes Here">

just when I thought it was all working ok, I am having problems with setting up an auto-reply to the messages that come in from this form. If I send a "normal" email to the address that auto-replies, everything is fine. If I send a message using the form mail, it doesn't work. Someone suggested there may be something wrong with the return path on the form-mail and it does look like the the return-path actually sends to the "to" address:
