| | Hi,
Does anyone know how i can do this, or scripts that will work on Trap17's servers and will do the following:
I have a .doc file form. Which i want to have filled in automactically, by HTML Form and emailed to my address, with the data filled in.
Any ideas?
I have heard many differing things, like XML, RTF, DOC, PDF...
I have serched through many places and come up empty handed with anything that works.  |

I have fooled around with cgiemail, which is builtin script in the hosting, and the only way this will work is through a simple TXT file. If that's alright with you I can post for further instruction on how to use this builtin feature. For the preview, all you need to do is assign name="namefield" and use your HTML form to HTML <input type=text name="name1">
...
<input type=text name="name2">
... And write a simple TXT file with: CODE
Name of the first [name1], and the name of the second [name2].
This will email to you with [......] field filled with the response filled by your HTML form page. Such that, CODE
Name of the first Jack, and the name of the second Spicer.

It doesn't matter what type the file is, XML, RTF, PDF etc. as long i can convert it to that type fromt .doc file. Also what ever script or lanuage doesn;t really matter either, as long as it will work with Trap17s servers. and on my site. Has anyone done a Tutorials for this based on trap17 servers? Thanks for your great help. This is a way of learning for me!...add it to the list!

I have written a short tutorial for you here http://www.trap17.com/forums/index.php?sho...ndpost&p=170547When you open TXT file you can open and save to DOC file type. That's not hard. QUOTE Also what ever script or lanuage doesn;t really matter either, as long as it will work with Trap17s servers. and on my site. There are other free scripts you can download and install it in your hosting but why not use the free one if it serves your purpose, right? You can search for more by typing FORMMAIL. QUOTE Has anyone done a Tutorials for this based on trap17 servers? Sure, we have the tutorial section with 4 formmail tutorials. Remember that you can search for topics. That's why writing the correct title and description is VERY IMPORTANT to this forum (it's also TOS--terms of service). One thing off the topic: Please refrain from using unnecessary spaces between your sentences. Otherwise it will look terrible and waste of space. Thank you.
