rubenibiSend Email without ReporCaster?
Hi everyone!!
My question is for sending an email from a web form to an especified mail, I know with ReportCaster can send mail, but where I am now, I don�t know if ReportCaster if installed.
Because of that, I wonder:
- How could I know if ReportCaster is installed in the server machine?
- If ReportCaster wasn't installed, what can I do to send a mail with the results of a form?
<form action="mailto:ibi@ibi.com"> [B]not that way[/B]!).
Greetings!!
PD: Sorry about my english

Francis MarianiThe login page for ReportCster is:
http://localhost/rcaster/main/reportcaster.jsp Where localhost should be changed to the server name at your installation.
If the page is displayed, then the installation has ben done - this doesn't prove that the server is up and running.
As for form-based email, if you don't want to use mailto, there's resources on th web. Here's one example:
