is there an html code for this

Post by blahman »

I made a website for my band and we just made the first song from our EP available as an mp3 for download. I want to know if anyone knows if there is an html code which would allow me to put a form on the page where someone can enter a comment about the song and then have that comment im'd to my screen name?

This may sound ridiculous but someone told me that this is possible but he did not know the absolute specifics. If that is impossible is there anyway to have the comment emailed to my email address? If you can help please let me know. Thank you.


If anyone cares the website is http://www.decidingtonight.com

If i understand the question right, you're looking for the AIM Hyperlink to send an IM to someone. You can use aim:goim?screenname=<yourscreennamehere> in a hyperlink, and when the use clicks this it will open up an IM to your screen name. Replace all spaces in your name with + signs

There Has To Be Some Way. Like, By Having a For Then They Type The Message, and It Replaces All spaces with a + and Adds Their Message to the end of the message link.

This is simple javascript and HTML. Make a form, when the user click the submit button run some function that will replace spaces with +'s then make it form the hyperlink and then do a redirect.

Thanks guys,

I figured out how to do it with an email using a cgi script. Someone can enter the name and it will insert their email address into my database. I'm still trying to figure it out with aim though.
