 AutoMail Lite Form Text - Example
The following text is an example of what a form on your web site needs to have in it to get AutoMail Lite to work.
This example includes the following:
Form Action
The URL must point to your script, on your site.
recipient
A confirmation email will be sent to this address. This is usually your address.
email
Required. This is the web surfer's address, and must be entered for AutoMail Lite to function. There are two fields that effect the email variable, one that labels it as required, and another that actually prints out the form box (near bottom of code below).
redirect
This is where the user is directed after a successful submittion of the form.
missing_fields_redirect
This is where the user is directed after an unsuccessful submittion of the form (due to a missing field or an improperly formatted address).
subject
This is the subject of the email sent to the user.
file
This is the file that will be attached to the email sent to the user.

You can also add any other fields that you would like. AutoMail Lite will process the fields, and send them to the "recipient". A common field that some people would include is a checkbox saying, "Please contact me with further information about the file I requested". This would open the door for a follow-up with the web surfer if you are trying to sell a product.
