Can I Add an "Upload File" Feature to HTML Submit Form?
I have a simple Submit form on our organization's network, and I receive the form results in my e-mail.
This is a VERY SIMPLY HTML SUBMIT FORM. How tough would it be to add the option where users can attach files to the form?
Thx,
Mike

Yeah, this won't work for file uploads, because there is no scripting method to handle the file. You need to enable PHP or ASP on the server and write a script to handle this form. Alternately, you can use Perl or Python if that's easier to install. Perl's cgi.pm module has a good file upload handler...

In case it matters, this form is only on our network, and only people in our organization have access to it. We all have Outlook, so the e-mail is sent via Outlook.
