I am trying to create a optin form that if they opt in for a teleclass it also puts them into the newsletter list. I tried doing this with the allowmulti and it puts them in one list and not the other. Here is the code (ok a newbie here dry.gif ):


<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html; charset=unicode" http-equiv="Content-Type"><form name="form1" method="post" action="https://www.mcssl.com/app/contactsave.asp">
<input name="merchantid" type="hidden" id="merchantid" value="000000">
<input name="ARThankyouURL" type="hidden" id="ARThankyouURL" value="">
<input name="copyarresponse" type="hidden" id="copyarresponse" value="0">
<input name="custom" type="hidden" id="custom" value="0">
<input name="defaultar" type="hidden" id="defaultar" value="452970">
<input name="allowmulti" type="hidden" id="allowmulti" value="457704">
<input name="visiblefields" type="hidden" id="visiblefields" value="Name,Email1,Phone">
<input name="requiredfields" type="hidden" id="requiredfields" value="Name,Email1">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="MSHTML 8.00.6001.18882"></head>
<body>
<table>
<tr>
<td><font color="#502513"><b>Name*</b></font></td>
<td><input name="Name" size="40" ></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font color="#502513"><b>Email*</b></font></td>
<td><input name="Email1" size="40" ></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><font color="#502513"><b>Phone</b></font></td>
<td><input name="Phone" size="40" ></td>
</tr>
<tr align="middle">
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" name="cmdSubmit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>

In this case allowmulti would allow their name to be put into the other list as well as the first one, but it's clearly not working. When someone signs up it is only going in one list the first one.

But that depends on how the script on the server is written.

You have totally confused me. I am just looking for what I am doing wrong on this code.

The problem depends on what contactsave.asp does with the data submitted to it. We don't know what contactsave.asp does with the data, so we can't tell you what (if anything) is wrong with the markup you showed us.

Have you copied this from somewhere? The names in all those hidden inputs don't have any meaning in HTML. The person who wrote the thing has invented them. Name and value pairs from each input will be sent to the script and it hopefully does something (or not) depending on the value. It could also just register what choices have been made.

Sounds like the OP wants a SELECT menu with the MULTIPLE attribute added.

Also you can't put the form elements in HEAD, they belong to BODY.
