Hi! I just upgraded from version 8.00 to 8.02 and the upgrade went smoothly. I used the wizard on the Tectite website it had no problems.

However, I am looking for a better way of making mods to the HTML FormMail generates such that future upgrades won't result in my having to do my "touch-up" work again. I added some CSS class assignments to 'p'aragraph elements so the text FormMail would generate would match the rest of the site, for example. Also, in the "this form was processed by (8.02)" line that appears on the "thank you" page, I changed it to read more like:

"this form was processed by FormMail v. (8.02)"

Other changes along those lines were made by me to my FormMail script.

What is the best way to customize the HTML generated by FormMail such that upgrades don't require as much re-touching up?

Thanks!

Peace...

Hi,

You really shouldn't try to modify FormMail for the reason you've discovered.

Instead, read the HOW TO guides for all the features you need.

For example, just use good_url to redirect to your own page.
