I have a quick question.
I have a spot of HTML that gets a form to email to a manned address.
I wish to also post a CC to an unmanned address.
How/Where do I put the CC address in the following form structure?
Also, I wish to put a radio button in (This I can do), that if selected will cause the unmanned email address to auto respond with a prepared form.
So assuming I put in something like
<br><br>Do you wish to receive our PDF form?br>
<input type="radio" name="PDF"value="Yes">Yes<BR>
<input type="radio" name="PDF"value="No">No<br><br>
How would I get an auto response from outlook?
Here is the main HTML for the 'Post to my email'.
Where does the CC code go?
<form method="post" enctype="text/plain" action='mailto:contact@contactaddress.co.uk'>
<input type="hidden" name="To" value="Subject">
Input #1br>
<input type="text" name="question:" size="50" maxlength="100"><br><br>
Input #2<br>
Long Input Here<br>
<textarea name="Subject of text area" rows=7 cols=46></textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"><img src="spacer.gif" width=5 height=1 alt="spacer">
<input type="reset" value="Reset"></form>
Thanks for any help.

If I was going to set something like this up, I'd set it up to mail to an alias which automatically forwards to all the addresses I wanted to send it to.

Ah yes. Set the rule on a proxy email to send a copy to the manned email addy!
Thanks for that bit.
What about sending something back to the originator based on whether he requests it or not?
(Rather than an automatic 'Send Back' rule)
Any thoughts?

Hmm... that's a little more complex. Because that requires both parsing the request, and adding that user to the CC list. Not sure you could do that with just HTML.

I have investigated, outlook rules have a facility to "Do an Action with specific words in the body of the message"
So all I have to do is add these words to the body if Yes is selected.
It will then do the action.
In this case send a reply.

OK, well, if outlook can support that, then you would have to put outlook into the chain, instead of just having a mail server do your work for you. Even then, I'm not sure how to optionally insert the word, although if you have a checkbox, I think it's name may be inserted in the form only if it is checked.

Plenty times have I seen code such as this
<a href="mailto:jo@blogs.com?subject=HTML Email CC and Autoreply Help Required&body=The Solution in one long string no greater than 256 characters&cc=fred@smith.com&bcc=secret@address.com">There you go!</a>
but, with server-side script HTML form can be processed with CC and/or BCC being used but never have I seen this without server-side scripting.
For an auto-responder you could give this a try Outlook 2003/2007 Out-of-Office Autoresponder[^]

Owing to a residual dimness on my part, I forgot that an autoreply is not possible, as it, (the original message), is being sent from a website not an address!
The message contains the senders Email as part of the message, is it possible to pick this up and reply?
Or, another approach, when the sender completes the form, can I have the script on the webpage hold that address as a string, then create an email to that address with a message held within the webspace.
(I am sure it can, and could probably hunker down and do this given time, but I am pushed for that commodity).
Something like
<form method="post" enctype="text/plain" action='mailto:webaddress><br />
<input type="hidden" name="To" value="Subject">
Where webaddress is defined by an input
(Is this even poss in HTML?)

As richard said, unless you do something funky within outlook, and essentially have it act as a replacement scripting engine, you're asking far more logic and branching than is possible with just pure HTML.

What would you suggest?
Try something with ASP?
(I am very weak with ASP, but have done some things).
Or use a bit of behind the scenes C# or VB on the web page?
I would appreciate a good link for tips in that direction.
(or even, if there is one, a CP Article!  )

The fact that you are asking all these questions together suggests that your knowledge is far from the level required for such a task. Also this question is far too broad for a forum like this. Your first step is to buy a book on Web Development (ASP.NET is a good start), study and learn, and then try and implement some of the things you have learnt.

I copied a file and changed its extension to an xml file which is its correct file format. I used the C++ CopyFile function. This new file is then sent to an html page that displays it as a link on a webpage. I typed the link in the address bar and it opens up just fine but as a link on a webpage, it does not. Why is that?
This is how the link is displayed on the page:
div.innerHTML = "Click to view file. <a href='C:\\DOCUME~1\\someuser\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\tempImages\\test.xml'>'C:\\DOCUME~1\\someuser\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\tempImages\\test.xml</a>";
Any help would be much appreciated.

At a guess, either it's because the file is using a local path ("C://...") and your security settings do not allow it or incorrect headers are being sent.
|
|
|
|
|
I pointed it to another file in the same directory and it seems to be working just fine. What do you mean by incorrect headers?
|
|

Actually, I don't think it'll be just that. But you can try using an intermediary file that reads and outputs the contents of a file with a local path. Dunno how you'd do it in whatever language you're using but in PHP you do as follows:
<?php
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding", "binary");
header('Cache-Control: maxage=3600');
header('Pragma: public');
header('Content-type: application/csv');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="fastrackexport.csv"');
readfile('C://fastrackexport.csv');
flush();
?>
I believe there something similar in asp.net.

Hi all,
I have a CSS drop-down menu within a top frame, and whenever I run it most of the menus are cut off, as the main (target) frame takes priority. I have tried altering the z-order priority from within the main calling html, the one that sets the frames, etc... and doesn't seem to fix the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Alain

I don't think you can roll css out of it's frame. I would suggest trying a different layout than frames / a different menu. You might be able roll it over an iframe, however - you'd need to test. I've never seen it done before.

Hi Marc,
Thanks for your reply. It really needs to be a frame layout, as the main application that I'm displaying in the target (main frame) is a Java applet that I have no control over it. I am not able to write any code on the Java applet as it's generated by a different process. The only option that I have is to embed the Java applet in a HTML call, but the calling application needs to have the page to itself. hence the reason for adding a frames layout to allow me to set a menu for the embed applet.
I'm open for any ideas if you think I can achieve the same result in a different way?
Thanks
Alain

Try adding the
wmode="transparent"
property to your embed tag.

Hi Mark,
Thanks your reply. I will try the "wmode" option tomorrow. I will let you know.
Thanks
Alain
