I have a vacation request form page that I'm building for our internal
company site. On my form i have a dropdown list for department w/ values =
to the email addr of the head of that department. Is there a way I can send
the form answers to selected answer(address) upon submition of the form? The
form works fine sending to my address, but I would like it to go to the
address based on the answer to the department field quesiton... Any
thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Sean

Not possible when using the FP Form Handler. You will need to use a custom written Form Handler
based on a whatever server-side scripting language, such as ASP, ASP.Net, PHP, etc. is supported by
your web host or server..

Thanks for the quick reply... I had found a few other similar posts that had
the same answer so I figured that it wouldnt be possible. I found a few
different form to email scripts through google searches.

Just wanted to clarify my thinking on how these work... install the script
on the webserver as well as a compiler for whatever language the script is
written in, then on the form properties, choose the script option and point
it to that script...

Does that sound correct? I realize the symantics will be different for each
script.
Thanks again for your help.

It all depends on what is support by /Installed on your web server.

On Window IIS web server you will need to use either CDOSYS or a 3rd Party application such as
ASPMail, ASPEmail, etc.
