hello,
I trying to make a simple contact form that submits to my email address-but it dosnt work.
When the submit button is clicked it just launches my email client.

Here are the steps im following: Note i didnt see the option for Enctype: text/plain in mx 2004. has it changed?

...

4. Click on the Form box, and in the properties menu, type the following:
action: mailto:emailaddress
method: GET
Enctype: text/plain

...

7. Be sure to include a submit button. Click the button icon (third from the right), and make sure the action is "Submit form".

...

Tips:
It's very important to set the encoding type to "text/plain" otherwise you'll get strange results.
Remember that mailto forms are dependant upon the Web browser your customer uses, the email client, and the operating system. They don't always work.

see anything???
thanks
kevin
