Form to Email (but as HTML) Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

That's it. I'm at desperate point now.

Somehow I have got to maintain the html format of a form page and have it emailed to an email address.


Yes I know its bad to send html webpages to email addresses, but in this case its okay because we know who the email is going to.

Our server does not support PHP.

It does support ASP however.

If anyone can point me in the right direction of a script or anything??

And yes I have been everywhere.

I don't know ASP, but can't you have it send a file as an e-mail attachment?

Of course, if you are willing to require that the sender have a properly configured email client, you can just do this:

If the email must be in HTML format, format it on the ASP side and append whatever noise you need around the actual content. Save an HTML email message to a file and open it with a text editor to figure out what you need to do.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

An HTML email is just a plain-text email with a bunch of hidden crap added. Reverse-engineer the source code of an existing HTML email, and add that crap in ASP.

Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

What about adding your HTML code and then sending it encoded as text/html (i.e. set the enctype attribute on the form to text/html)? Would that work?

Inflate your Upload Space

St Leo. I'm not proficient in ASP, so I'm trying to find an easier route for now until I have grasped more ASP knowledge.

Mercator, I was thinking of trying that, but it feels too easy to work. But, *sigh* I will give it a try..

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Does your server support CGI/Perl? There are some formmail scripts that run on CGI/Perl.
