Re: Submitting a form

Hi Richard,

I just went to your form and gave it a 'test drive'.  I entered some 'dummy
data' and then hit "Submit".  The information got sent immediately via my
email program.  Isn't this what you were after?  Perhaps you fixed it
already?  I'm using IE 5.01 and the latest version of Outlook Express 5.
Just for your verification, the dummy data I sent was:

name=Hunt
e-mail=myname(at)domain.com
comments=blah blah
submit=Submit

It was sent to richard49(at)lineone.net under the subject heading: "Form posted
from Microsoft Internet Explorer."

It looks like it's working to me on this end. Hope this helps,
Steve Antonio
