HTML Code for Forms

Once the FormMail file is in place on your server, all you have to do is create a page with the form code to make it work.
Below you'll find the code for creating a form in which your visitors can fill out and the results will be emailed to your email address.
The form has the following fields:

• Text box
• Password Field (hidden text)
• Check Box
• Radio Buttons 

Here is what the form will look like and below you will find the HTML code.  You will need to change some variables (in red) to customize it to your own needs.

Your Name:
Password:
Please Place me on your mailing list:
What's Your Gender? Male Female
How Old Are You? 0-25 26-50 51 and Over
Comments:
You can insert default text here if you wish

Here's the code for the form you can copy and paste.  Feel free to remove the HTML code for fields you don't need or adjust the various values to fit your liking.
Notice the red text.  This is what you need to edit to customize the form.
1) The 1st line should be changed to the address of the FormMail script on your server.
2) The 2nd line should be the address of the page the user views after they submit the form.  You may need to create this page.
3) The 3rd line is the email address the form results will be sent to.
4) The 4th line is the subject of the email when the form is sent to your address.
