How in the hell did you do that? That might be running through your head as you look at that. Well, here's the HTML behind it.
<FORM ACTION="bin/mailto" METHOD="POST">
Type your name here:
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Name">
<P>
Type your password here:
<INPUT TYPE="password" NAME="Password">
<P>
Comments?
<P>
<TEXTAREA NAME="Comments" ROWS="3"COLS="18"></TEXTAREA>
<P>
How did you find us?
<SELECT NAME="Menu">
<OPTION>Search Engine
<OPTION SELECTED>Followed Link
<OPTION>The CheeseMaster</SELECT>
<P>
May I take your order?
<P>
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="food">Beer
<P>
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="food">Coffee
<P>
Please take this survey:
<P>
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="beef" VALUE="on">Do you like beef?
<P>
<INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="chicken" VALUE="on">Do you like chicken?
<P>
<INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE="Submit this crap">
<INPUT TYPE=reset VALUE="Reset this mess">
BREAKDOWN!!!!!:
First of all, in the FORM tag, you don't have to use "BIN/MAILTO" like
I did (Unless you're a Tripod Member),
because I don't know if you have a BIN/MAILTO directory. Just put what
URL your server provides you with (usually given information).
If the input type is "radio", this is important to know: If there
is more than one radio tag with the same name, only one of them can be
switched "on" at a time.
For input type, that goes accordingly, like PASSWORD is a password-like
text (asterisks). NAME, however, can be changed. When this form is filled
out,if you have "Password" as the name of that input type, the reciever
will get this:
Password: Cowpie
If you typed Cowpie as your password, of course.
As for TEXTAREA, you can decide however many Columns and Rows it has
(ROWS & COLS).
The SELECT Tag is a pull-down menu to select from. Each choice should
have<OPTION> in front of it. <OPTION SELECTED> is if you want
a default option to be selected.
INPUT TYPE=reset/submit are buttons in which you can change the labels
of them after the VALUE tag.
