Submit to different emails via submit

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 08.2003

Hi,

Does anyone know how I can get a form to email to different email addresses depending on what choice is made in a previous dropdown box

I want the form to submit to whichever option the user selects – i.e. mail to the person chosen from the dropdown

e.g. I have a form that contains a dropdown with 5 different people, depending on whom i opt for – onsubmit will send to one of 5 people…
E.g. John – if the user select a option John and clicks submit the form knows to mail it to [email][email protected][/email]
If the user selects a option Jack and clicks submit the form knows to mail it to [email][email protected][/email]
If the user selects a option Jill and clicks submit the form knows to mail it to [email][email protected][/email]

I hope this makes sense, any help is very much appreciated
Thanks!

@matildaauthorApr 08.2003 — Hi Gil,

Thanks for this - this is what I am after... However I am having a few difficulties getting it to work in my form

I have created the form via frontpage and frontpage creates the following at the beginning of the form - so my form will go to this address, I have tried removing htis default address but still no joy - is there anything I shoudl be putting in there?

<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" startspan

U-File="../_private/ReleaseTaperequests.html" S-Format="HTML/BR"

S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE" S-Email-Format="HTML/PRE"

S-Email-Address="[email protected]" B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE"

B-Email-Subject-From-Field="FALSE" S-Email-Subject="Release Tape Request Form"

S-Builtin-Fields U-Confirmation-Url="thanks.htm" --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot

bot="SaveResults" endspan -->
