Forms created with Frontpage
I have a website that I created but having issues with getting the form I created to work correctly. I have one submit button, but above the button I have some different field. First I have 3 fields for the person first, last name & email, the next field is to upload a picture. The last field is for comments to be associated with the picture. I have everything currently being emailed to my gmail address. Everything works fine except the file (picture) upload. I did not get any pictures, I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I would like to have the pics just uploaded to my site but not sure how to accomplish this. Can anyone help me???/

Do you want the pictures uploaded to your site or emailed to you?

Are you familiar with PHP? I found this useful tutorial on file uploads and how to secure them against hackers. Let me know if you need any help with the code.

I created with my site with HTML.....does that matter. I have heard of php but that is it. I have been teaching myself webdesign. I thought I would start with HTMl. I only know the basics right now. Any major changes I need to make to my site I use frontpage or sharepoint designer.

Nope. It's the script that processes the form that will need to deal with the file uploading and e-mail sending. PHP is commonly used for this. You can write your own PHP script to do this or download an existing free form processor that supports file uploading.

Peace...
