can someone tell me how to add a email box on my yahoo geocities webpage.or where i should post this question.

Hi sportman,

I wasn't clear on what kind of mailbox you wished, so I'll post both.

you can do a simple click so that others can email you like this

<**center>Email: <a href="mailto:sportman@yahoo.com"> Gidge</a></center**>

take out the astricks **

and copy and paste this in your html where you want it to appear.

where the sportman@yahoo.com is put your email address that you want to use.

where the name Gidge is put what you want people to click to email...
you can put click here to email me, contact me here, or just out your email address there as well. you'll get the idea.

The other way is form mail.

the best way for me to tell you is to goto www.htmlbasix.com and they have an email form that you create and copy and paste into your webpage. Such as this...

Do you wish to subscribe? Y N
Enter you email address ( sportman@yahoo.com)

| submit |

then it will use the persons own email to send you the info, comment or question to wanted.

If you want the graphic mailbox that you click to have people send mail, I can write that here for you as well.


Hope this helps.

Gidge

why dont you eamil Geocities support

thanks gidge your help was greatly appreciated

There is one thing I would advise you to do and that is
use a different email address than your main one, Get
a separate email address for your site, One that you can
change if you start getting spam mail.

There are many sites that give you Free email addresses
If you start getting spam you can then close the email
address and open another.

I'll second that Taff007.

You wouldn't believe some of the stuff that gets through. I have seperate email addresses and I'm glad I have 'cos some of the stuff I get I wouldn't want my family, especially my daughter, to read.
