[RESOLVED] My Forms Never work well

When subiting a form IE7 and IE6 answers:

” This form is being submitted using e-mail.
Submiting this form will reveal etc etc………”

I already looked other forms and I do not know where I am wrong.

The code I have there is:

+++++++++

<form name=”form/contacto” method=”POST” action=”mailto:[email protected]” enctype=”text/plain”>
<input name=”name” type=”text” style=”position:absolute;width:200px;left:106px;top:356px;z-index:6″>
<input name=”telefone” type=”text” style=”position:absolute;width:200px;left:106px;top:389px;z-index:7″>
<input name=”email” type=”text” style=”position:absolute;width:200px;left:106px;top:421px;z-index:8″>
<textarea name=”observacoes” style=”position:absolute;width:200px;height:72px;left:106px;top:455px;z-index:9″></textarea>
<input name=”enviar” type=”submit” value=”enviar” style=”position:absolute;left:106px;top:534px;z-index:12″>
<input name=”limpar” type=”reset” value=”limpar” style=”position:absolute;left:167px;top:534px;z-index:13″>
<select name=”assunto” style=”position:absolute;left:396px;top:316px;width:200px;z-index:15″>
<option value=””></option>
<option value=””>Aluguer</option>
<option value=””>Escola</option>
<option value=””>Evento</option>
<option value=””>Reparação</option>
<option value=””>Manutenção</option>
<option value=””>Outro</option>
</select>
</form>

@coppocksDec 09.2006 — Are you getting the form data in your email? If so... you are doing nothing wrong. MSIE just lets your users know that the data on your forms is not being sent to you in a secure manner and that it is being sent directly via email. You probably should get a form processing script of some kind, there are dozens of them out there. That would probably eliminate the messages.

If you are using a form processor of some kind, post some more info/form address etc so we can look at it.

@coppocksDec 09.2006 — That's why...

action="mailto:[email protected]"

It's just not a secure approach and IE lets it's users know that.

@kiwibritDec 09.2006 — I recommend you do not use "mail to" as your form action. Firstly, you get the result you have seen. Secondly, you are advertising you email address to spambots.

I recommend use of a server side script. The [url=http://www.thesitewizard.com/wizards/feedbackform.shtml]sitewizard's[/url] is a good place to start.
