    <description><![CDATA[Hello<br />I am a graphic designer working on a web site that requires a registration form. This is a very basic form with with just 3 text fields, 2 radio buttons plus a submit button. It is set to do &quot;mailto:&quot; ...when the visitor/applicant submits their info, it goes to an email address. This works automatically in IE but in Netscape, when the submit button is clicked, a blank email window opens...<br /><br />Do I &nbsp;need javascript to get this to work universally? Is there a tutorial or reference on this site???<br /><br />Thanks for the help...]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA['mailto' is not a valid action for a form. The fact that it works in some browsers is neither here nor there. Lots of invalid things work in old browsers, that why they are so big, slow and bloated - Yes I'm talking about IE here!<br /><br />The only valid actions for a form are 'get' and 'post' which deliver the form reponses to the server to be interpreted appropriately.<br /><br />You need to send your form to a script on the server to be parsed and passed on to Sendmail for mailing. It's nothing to do with JavaScript.<br /><br />No, I don't have a tutorial on this on WPDFD as it's not really what WPDFD is about. A search on Google should find you the solution.]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[Check with your ISP, too. Mine has several scripts pre-installed as part of my service and I know there are a couple of form handlers available. Lots of possibilities - if I'm hunting for a script I usually check out <a href="www.hotscripts.com">www.hotscripts.com</a> - they have tons of free and pay scripts available, reviews and ratings, too.]]></description>
