Question

ASP Form to Mail

I have a website that was created with GoLive. It contains a single basic html contact page. I'd like to use Dreamweaver and my ASP Form to Mail to create a contact form for this site without converting the whole site to Dreamweaver. I intend to convert it at some point, but since it is a GL7 site, it's going to require a complete redesign. In the meantime, I'd like to have the form available on the site.

So my question is this - can I use DW and Form to Mail to create a single contact page with a form, or will this be a problem?

Great job on the shopping cart. So how were you able to code that within GL?

The shopping cart was part and parcel with a GoLive template I purchased.

The company also sells DW, Front Page, and Generic templates, they tell me if I want to do a complete teardown and design my site from scratch with DW, it won't be difficult to extract the shopping cart "guts" to put into the new site design. So that's what I'll probably have to do. And in the meantime, deal with the mailto link on the contact page.

Have you tried this? http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/golive_migration/content/using_gmk_extension.html

Maybe this will save you a lot of time. Let me know.

That would be great, except my GoLive is version 7, and my Dreamweaver is CS3.

What does your page/form look like? Is it online?

Why can you not just open the contact page in Dreamweaver? Dreamweaver can render any html page to show the design view as well as the raw code. From Code view you can apply your asp script.

That is what I thought to do - but the way ASP Form to Mail works is that when you apply it to a form on a page in a site file, it adds some folders to the site files, and I didn't know if it would work.

I suppose all I can do is try it..... Thanks for the suggestion.

Let me know how it turns out. You know you can also use a simple php code to process your form. Is it a must to have your form process in asp?
