Hi
 
In the old mailing list there was an inc_mailing_list.asp file which made it possible to integrate and place the "sign up" box on different pages on your website.
 
Is that gone, or how do you integrate the "sign up" for the news pad on other pages than the main page on the newspad default.asp.
 
Best,
 
Mikael

Web Wiz Mailinglist is a completely different product to NewsPad, one is a mailinglist and the other is News System.

With NewsPad you can create a form on your web site and then pass the email address of the signup to the signup.asp page using either post or a querystring. eg /newspad/sign_up.asp?email=myemail@maydomain.com

Hey Bruce, I was using your other product and loved it. This one looks ever better for what I need it for. However, I am a little rusty with my coding atm so I am looking for answers in VERY LAYMANS TERMS for what I am trying to accomplish here.
 
I have a website for selling real estate going at the moment. ( www.granitehillshomez.com ) with a form on it at the moment that inserts the information I NEED TO COLLECT from my interested clients  ( Name, phone, Email, Address, and what they are interested in (Buying, selling, etc ) ) into an access database however I would like to get it set up so that they would A. have to confirm their email addresses and B. They would be set up so I can mail them some nice newsletters using your product.
 
What I would like to do is when they fill out this form to add them to the newsletter database and shoot them out hot buys from your program. I think I can do this just by importing their information using the Import Subscribers from External Database however there are no "fields" set up to get the information I need to get.
 
I would also like to use your program off that form ( or whatever way you would think would be the least amount of trouble ) to send a confirmation email so that I can make sure I am getting working email addresses.
 
 
IS THERE AN EASY WAY TO DO THIS OR WOULD HAVE HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR DATABASE COMPLETELY AROUND?
 
CAN I JUST SCRAP MY FORM AND CREATE A FORM WITH PRETTY MUCH THE SAME INFORMATION FIELDS USING YOUR DATABASE AND JUST SCRAP MINE?
 
Thanks alot for any help . .......... Get me through this and I will be buying by the weekend.
 
 
 
Again in laymans terms please:   Once I get back into coding a bit I pick it up pretty quickly however I have had a bit of a layoff.  ( God I feel like an idiot)
 
 
 
 
 
 
Also could you go into details also about how to pass the email address to the sign-up page a bit,
 
here is the code on my form at the moment ::
 
<form action="<%=MM_editAction%>" method="POST" name="Contact" id="Contact" onSubmit="MM_validateForm('name','','R','phone','','R','email','','R''address','','R''interest','','R');return document.MM_returnValue">
                                                <div align="center">
                                                  <table width="722" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" class="basictext">
                                                    <tr>
                                                      <td><div align="right">Name:</div></td>
                                                      <td><input name="name" type="text" id="name" size="45"></td>
                                                      <td>&nbsp;</td>
                                                    </tr>
                                                    <tr>
                                                      <td><div align="right">Email
                                                          Address:</div></td>
                                                      <td><input name="email" type="text" id="email2" size="45"></td>
                                                      <td>&nbsp;</td>
                                                    </tr>
                                                    <tr>
                                                      <td><div align="right"&g

A bit hard looking through your forms HTML, however, I think that if you enable the 'Long Registration' form in NewsPads admin area and create NewsPad categories for each of your interests it should get all the information you presently capture in your form.
