Hi there,

I was also wondering if you have a solution recipe or how to on how to use UE with an existing .html form?

I understand that the form variables are sent by post to a process-form.php page, but do you have any tutorials on how to get UE to then process the e-mail directly from this redirect page and to return it to a thank-you.html page?

Sorry I am a non-coder and when I attempted to do this to an old existing site - that cannot be changed, I was not sure what to do next and I could not find any tutorials/documentation on your site.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Martin

That is standard functionality, so it is located in the help.

In DW, go to the bindings window and add the form from the .html page you have the existing form on. Set the existing form action to the page where you are adding UE.

You can drag and drop the form elements from the bindings window onto the body of the email once they have been added in this way.

Then in UE specify the redirect page as your thank you .html page.

So I went to the bindings panel and then clicked the plus button, then went down to Add Form to Bindings. After browsing to the page, viola there is everything ready to use!

Thanks for the info Ray! You are the best!

Cheers,

Martin
