Send Mail Form Example

Example 1 - Fixed Subject and Recipient

In this example, the TO field has been hard coded to send email only to webmaster@somesite.com, therefore it has been removed. The CC field has also been removed since this email is only intended for the web master, and the Subject field has been removed and hard coded with 'Feedback'. The only fields the user needs to fill out is their e-mail address (FROM) and the message. Users do have the option to receive a carbon copy of the feedback, by checking the 'Send a carbon copy to myself' button. (See the HTML)

Modification rule of thumb

If you remove a field be sure to replace it with a hidden equivalent. If you want to remove the 'carbon copy to myself' check box, just remove it without adding a hidden field equivalent.
