A Simple Tutorial For Building a HTML Email Form

Here’s a really easy lesson on how to place a HTML Email form on your web-site without leaning any difficult programming in languages like ASP or PHP.  HTML Email Forms are WebForms that go on your website.  When someone visiting your site fills them in and hits the submit button you will get an e-mail sent to you of what they filled in on the web form.  Then you can simply write a reply back to that person.  A contact form is a simple example of a HTML Email form.

(In this tutorial the~The} only skills you will really need to know in this tutorial is cut and paste and maybe a little bit of HTML design skills, but even the design skills are not really even needed.

Step Number One.  Head over to http://www.HTMLEmailform.org and join to get a free account.  Once you do this you’ll see a screen that asks you to name your web-form, fill in where you want the results emailed to and if you want the company to host the web-form or not.  For this question choose “I will put the form on my own website”

Step #2:  After you press NEXT you can add fields to your new web form.  To begin with I would just leave the fields the just how they are.  This will make you a simple contact form that you can use and see how everything works.  When you get more experience you can add and remove these form fields.

Step #3: Press the button called NEXT and you can check a box that will send the visitor that filled in the form a thank you email.  You will usually want this message to tell them that you received their web form submission and you’ll get right back to them.

Step Four: Hit the button called NEXT and you’ll have all the HTML code for your HTML Email form.  Copy that code and just paste it into your webpage.  Then upload the web page to your site and test the form.

That’s all there is too it.  You can quickly build HTML Email forms in only a couple of minutes without doing any programming or knowing any complex programming.
