How to manipulate 's-email-address' in webbot component - 6/6/2005 4:49:06
I have a working FP form which sends the submitted details to a nominated e-mail address.
I want to make the e-mail address dependant on the selected item in a drop-down box in the same form. My problem is that I can not find a way to influence that particular part of the webbot component.
Does anyone know if this might be possible using PHP for example?
Thanks and regards

Using php yes... but not in cooperation with a Frontpage form... you would have to rebuild the form using straight HTML / php
(or ASP)

OK - just to finalise this item - I could have created identical forms for each sendto address, which would have worked fine (in fact I had 3 forms created and working - each one going to different address) - BUT - I then discovered a formmail script which knocks FP's forms into a cocked-hat. It's a script that does everything you can imagine or need with your form mail - better than many paid-for scripts - and it's free.
Allows formatted response pages and html e-mails that look just like the original form and much much more. DB integration included if required.
Must have PHP installed on your server - otherwise it's a sinch to set up

If that doesn't work out for you, I created a simple PHP solution that takes a bit to modify, but it comes with a fairly decent tutorial explaining how to do everything.
