[CLOSED] send email with html formvalues
I'm new to this discussion board, and there is probably a post on this, but I'm in need of a quick answer.

I am creating an HTML form for user submission and report requests and I'd just like to know how to pass the form values to an email address. Is there documentation you can refer me to? I am not using any database values to populate the form, its just a blank form that I will need to read the values out of and display in an email.

jessicne, welcome to the forum.


So you want to collect the info in the form and email it ?

How did you build the form ?

Is the action on the form "/ibi_apps/WFServlet" ?

Did you want the emailing done with WebFOCUS or another method ?

With WebFOCUS, the form variables are passed to the focexec, and the email can be generated there. There are other posts on emails generated from WebFOCUS.
