The code you have pasted is just the HTML, you also need to upload the PHP file.
The PHP file is what uploads the files and sends the data to you.


Simply remove the options that you do not want.

I don't thinkg Geocities support PHP on their servers, which would explain why it doesn't work ;)

[wolf202]

is there a freesite that you know of that does?

maybe tripod or freeservers?

[lufbra]

I believe Lycos allows it, since I know of someone who has a PHP based Bulletin Board set up on the free Lycos server!! :)

[wolf202]

thanx dave your a big help but where do i sign up for the lycos hosting? angelfire?

[Steven.Bentley]

Sign up here

http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk/

[wolf202]

i got another problem. now when it submits it it says methed is not allowed see for yourself (http://manitoban_fishin.tripod.com/form.html)

[degsy]

Looks like Tripot/Lycos doesn't allow you to use forms.

[lufbra]

Hmmmmm, maybe they've changed since I signed up!! :(

Use bravenet, you can keep your website at lycos or geocities and just sign up for this and put it on your page. Of course it is free (http://www.bravenet.com/samples/emailforms.php)

hey entat my new windows son't work on my comp because of adaware so could you tell me address?

[wolf202]

i found it but by the looks of it it doesn't have the send a picture with it option that i want. or am i making a mistake?

[enat66]

oh oops sorry, my fault forgot you wanted to send pictures, although you probably could use your own php code and use bravenets services (it may be cgi or somethign else)

[wolf202]

thinking, thinking yess i could do that and you know what? i will but there is on little problem i don't know how to edit php!:(
