hi all ,

this is a very simple problem but i need some help,

My situation is :

i have a form which opens in a pop-up window , in which user will
insert his email-id & name ,
there are two buttons submit & cancle .

now i want that when the user clicks on submit button the email should
be sent on users email address ,
& i don't want to use ' mailto ' tags the email should be sent
directly .Can i do this using javascript .

You can't do this with JavaScript.

You can't do this with clientside javascript.

However you can do this by using serverside javascript on an ASP platform,
using a mailer like CDO or Jmail. I do this all the time.

Well, not really all the time, there are other nice things in cyberlife.

Does that mean I can nominate you to write the initial draft proposal
for the entry?

Seconded.

I have had people ask me this a number of times already (in offline
discussions), so I can only assume it’s asked a lot here as well.
