textarea needs to have a name="message" attribute added to it in order to transfer what you type to the email/PM.

when doing the email one, it created the email and sent it (I use outlook for email). when I received it, it was an attachment to the email and had everything converted to escape codes.

when I did the PM one, it opened up a regular PM sending screen and I still had to click the post button.

in case you wanted feedback..

Wow! It works correctly when I used it. Please erase this post. I know its just bad html, but other then that there is still problems.

Thanks

I think it was a good start however!

so without the name tag in the textarea, it still transferred the data for you? It might be browser related. I was using IE7 when I tried it.

When you did the email one, did the text from the textarea show directly up in the email? What email service do you got through when you do emails from links in webpages. it could be that outlook did it to me as protection (from spam or something).

Im not sure, I might of done something different on my part to make it work.

I am currently using IE7 also.

How else can I fix it?

[Wormopolis]

well the name tag definately made it transfer data for me.

the email one: I have to lookup how posting forms works to see if there is a specific type involved. Did it put the message directly in your email?

pm one: Did it open the PM form or did it just automatically send the message to you?

I recently tried it and it only opened the information and did not transfer. It sends, but does not transfer
