_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: recipient
Description: This form field allows you to specify to whom you wish for
your form results to be mailed. Most likely you will want to configure
this option as a hidden form field with a value equal to that of your
e-mail address.
Syntax:
<input type=hidden name='recipient' value='your_username@localnet.com'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Optional Form Fields:
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: subject
Description: The subject field will allow you to specify the subject
that you wish to appear in the e-mail that is sent to you after this
form has been filled out. If you do not have this option turned on, then
the script will default to a message subject: WWW Form Submission
Syntax:
If you wish to choose what the subject is:
<input type=hidden name='subject' value='Your Subject'>
To allow the user to choose a subject:
<input type=text name='subject'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: email
Description: This form field will allow the user to specify their return
e-mail address. If you want to be able to return e-mail to your user, I
strongly suggest that you include this form field and allow them to fill
it in. This will be put into t he From: field of the message you receive.
Syntax: <input type=text name='email'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: realname
Description: The realname form field will allow the user to input their
real name. This field is useful for identification purposes and will
also be put into the From: line of your message header.
Syntax: <input type=text name='realname'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: sort
Description: This field allows you to choose the order in which you wish
for your variables to appear in the e-mail that FormMail generates. You
can choose to have the field sorted alphabetically or specify a set
order in which you want the fields to appear in your mail message. By
leaving this field out, the order will simply default to the order in
which the browsers sends the information to the script (which isn't
always the exact same order they appeared in the form.) When sorting by
a set order of fields, you should include the phrase 'order:' as the
first part of your value for the sort field, and then follow that with
the field names you want to be listed in the e-mail message, separated
by commas.
Syntax:
To sort alphabetically: <input type=hidden name='sort' value='alphabetic'>
To sort by a set field order: <input type=hidden name='sort' value='order:name1,name2,etc...'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: redirect
Description: If you wish to redirect the user to a different URL, rather
than having them see the default response to the fill-out form, you can
use this hidden variable to send them to a pre-made HTML page.
Syntax:
To choose the URL the user will end up at:
<input type=hidden name='redirect' value='http://your.address/to/file.html'>
To allow the user to specify a URL he wishes to travel to once the form
is filled out:
<input type=text name='redirect'>
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Field: required
Description: You can now require for certain fields in your form to be
filled in before the user can successfully submit the form. Simply place
all field names that you want to be mandatory into this field. If the
required fields are not filled in, the user will be notified of what
they need to fill in, and a link back to the form they just submitted
will be provided.
Syntax:
If you want to require that the user fill in the email and phone fields
in your form, so that you can reach them once you have received the
mail, use a syntax like: <input type=hidden name='required' value='email,phone'>

Field: env_report
Description: Allows you to have Environment variables included in the
e-mail message you receive after a user has filled out your form. Useful

variables. The following is a short list of valid environment variables
that might be useful:

If you wanted to find the remote host and browser sending the request,
you would put the following into your form:
<input type=hidden name='env_report' value='REMOTE_HOST,HTTP_USER_AGENT'>
