Hi all TW5 experts,

I am looking for ways to create a contact us page in TW5.  The contact us page will eventually send out a HTML email, enclosed with the visitor's contact and messages, to the administrator.

Kindly advise.  Thanks in advance.

Regards,
James

@James, it depends on what your system allows you to do. The simplest solution for someone who doesn't run his own server or something equivalent is probably to iframe a contact form from some external service. This basically means a tiddler with a "window" showing content from elsewhere, for example a Google Form. It is simple to set up but it is not simple to get it to look professional if you don't have full control over that external service layout, but maybe it is enough. I use this idea on http://tiddlywiki5.tiddlyspot.com/ - the form (which is not a google form) is inside an iframe. I made it appear integrated... but once you've actually filled in the form and clicked the send button it is clear that it is another site that I cannot control.
