Here is my code.
<form action="MAILTO:example#gmail.com " method="post" enctype="text/file">
A3 or A4:<br>
<input type="text" name="A3 or A4"><br>
Add image:<br>
<input type="file" name="image"><br>
<input type="button" id=" value="click">
</form>
Issue: After Clicking the submit button or in this case just the button, nothing happens. I am currently using gmail so if you could please help.
First, a button of input type="button" will not prompt the POST action. You should be using a submit button:
<input type="submit" value="click"/>
Second, form action="MAILTO: " should be form action="mailto:someone#example.com".
A simple example perhaps could provide some insights. Yet, as you mentioned Gmail usage, I suggested reading Gmail API Guides in which examples of various languages are provided.
The button should have type="submit"
<form action="mailto:" enctype="text/file" method="post">
A3 or A4:<br>
<input name="A3 or A4" type="text"><br>
Add image:<br>
<input name="image" type="file"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
</form>

Trying to make Google Image Search Clone using HTML form where after entering text in the search field it will take you directly to Google Image search results page.
Here is the code that I am using:
<body>
<form action="https://google.com/search">
<input type="text" name="q">
<input type="submit" value="Google Search">
</form>
</body>
It will take to normal google search, how do I change it to google image search result page?
You have to change the action, as such:
<form method="get" action="http://images.google.com/images">
<input type="text" name="q" />
<input type="submit" value="Google Search" />
</form>
Google image search link is of the following format
https://www.google.com/search?q=```query```&tbm=isch
Each of the parameters, q and tbm, requires an input tag but tbm does not require any user input.
'GET_parameter_name=value' for every input tag before submit button is appended by '&'.
<form action="https://www.google.com/search">
<input type="text" name="q" id="box">
<input type="hidden" name="tbm" value="isch">
<input type="submit" value="Image Search" >
</form>

I have made this:
<form action="links.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="link" value="" style="height:25px;length:0px;font-size:8pt;"><br>
Direct: <input type="submit"><br>
Show: <input type="submit">
</form>
Is there any way I can pass a parameter when I press a different button? When I click now it sends me to links.php?link= which is good, but I want to do so that if I click one of the buttons, it sends me to links.php?link=&up=no.
I think I found a solution but it uses javascript, I want to do it with HTML only.
If you're looking to add a parameter based on what submit button was pressed, you can add a name to each of them:
<form action="links.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="link" value="" style="height:25px;length:0px;font-size:8pt;"><br>
Direct: <input type="submit" name="direct"><br>
Show: <input type="submit" name="show">
</form>
Pressing the direct submit button will give:
?link=&direct=...
Pressing the show button will give:
?link=&show=...
edit
In the event that you want to pass a specific value for each button (which isn't tied to it's text like a submit input is), use the button tag instead of the input tag and pass it explicitly:
<form action="links.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="link" value="" style="height:25px;length:0px;font-size:8pt;"><br>
Direct: <button name="direct" value="foo">Submit</button><br>
Show: <button name="name" value="bar">Submit</button>
</form>
which would result in: ?link=&direct=foo and ?link=&show=bar
My form no longer posts to the action url. Here is the html code:
<form method="get" action="/search-results/">
<input type="text" placeholder="Search" name="q">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
Why isn't the form posting?
This HTML looks correct, so you could have some JavaScript that is preventing the default form submission.
<input type="submit" value="Search">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search">
try this let me know give some code for problem you may past ...
Test
<br><br>
<form action="index.php?page=test">
<input type="text" placeholder="enter text"> </input>
<button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>
Why is the link working correctly while the form gets me the url http://example.com/index.php? in the adress bar of the browser?
Every parameter i define in the action attribute is getting cut off
you have to use this code.
Test
<br><br>
<form action="index.php" method="get">
<input type="text" placeholder="enter text"> </input>
<input type="hidden" name="page" value="test">
<button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>
You are submitting a GET form. The data in the form will be expressed as a query string and replace the one in the URL in the action.
Move the data from the query string into hidden inputs inside the form.
I have a form to enable people to provide an email address but it wont allow any input. The site is www.pbadvisory.com.au and here is my HTML code:
<form action="mailto:jdoe#pbadvisory.com.au" method="get">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress" id="newsletter_email" />
<input type="submit" id="newsletter_subscribe" value="Subscribe" name="submit" />
</form>
any suggestions to fix would be appreciated
Just went through your site. Actually it is allowing to input the text. But the text color is white and background is white, so its invisible. Change the text color so you can see it.
You cannot use a mailto: as a form action. If you want a form that sends e-mail, it must be done server-side.
Try with following Changes!
<form action="MAILTO:jdoe#pbadvisory.com.au" method="post" enctype="text/plain">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress" id="newsletter_email" />
<input type="submit" id="newsletter_subscribe" value="Subscribe" name="submit" />
</form>
Form method should be 'post' not get. That's the reason for your problem. Any way here is the full code with email subject is also included.
<form method="post" action="mailto:youremail#youremail.com?Subject=Email Subject" enctype="text/plain">
E-mail:<input id="emailAddress" name="E-mail" type="text" maxlength="24" />
<input type="submit" value="Send Email" />
</form>
Hope it helped.
Update:
Just a note this is not the right way if you want users to get subscribe with your web site.
