EMAIL LINK

In Frontpage 2002 I am using a template where when you
click submit it is supposed to send comments to an email
address. How can I achieve this and have a page open
afterwards that says Thank You for your submission or a
message of the sort. So far I have had no luck. Thank you
in advance.

You can use the Feedback Form template under File Menu | New | Page...

Site must be published to a server that has the FP extensions via FP's http
mode and host must have configured the extensions to process email.

if you use a form, then the built in features in Frontpage can be used.

If you just have a text link all that does using the mailto: tag is to open the
user's email program - so there is no 'thank you' page or anything.

If you create a form, then right click and choose form properties, you get all
the options you need to send the mail to a database, or text file or email
address, and it gives you the option to make a confirmation page and optionally
listing the fields with the data just submitted.
