BS: Web mail me please - testing my site

Subject: BS: Web mail me please - testing my site
From: Mr Red

I had a report from someone who was trying to score points. But he reckons my contact page does not send webmail to my e-mail address. The fact that I get e-mail from it is no guarantee that it works for everyone. so anyone care to tell me if they have a "required field" error? PM me or post here if you can't get through. Plus a few facts like Win 98 (or whatever OS) browser type and modem speed. But only if it refuses. It will tell you - I hope.

And tell me you are billgates@msn.com if you want to remain a Nonny Mouse. But required fields have to have text in them.

contact me

or go via

cresby.com

PS it just worked for me so what's the problem? Not asking others to check I guess.

Thanks in advance.

Six different browsers all seem to have made it through.

Thanks to all - I got another e-mail from the source of the concern who thought he had added a leading space in the address box. So that can be covered. Now to see
successes

Alba from the Muddy Kitty:>) - Testing, Testing 1,2,9!
Sword For Hire - Testing

MW - Test
Frank Dutton - Testing from China
Tannywheeler from Mudcat - as per your request
Robyn Park aka Little Robyn - Gidday

not so perfect

Tannywheeler, again - time frame.

and thanks to mack/misophist who knows about these things - test 5 seems to be missing - was this the PM?

- test 1 (linux OS Opera 7.54)
- test 2 (linux OS Konqueror 3.2.1 browser *site does not display well with this browser but all necessary bits seem to be there)
- test 3 (linux OS Mozilla Firefox 1.0.2)
-test 4 (linux OS Epiphany 1.0.4 browser * site badly displayed. Half seems to be missing.) - [ml sent this another way]
- test 6 (linux OS Mozilla 1.6 # the only odd thing is that it took 6 or 7 tries to move the cursor into the address field)

Given that most of the cleverness is JavaScript and either un-necessary (like day of month) or there to fool the spammers (who have gone into hiding) I may take the JavaScript out. It can go back if there is a plague of spam. I do ponder on Tanny's time anomally (=day rollover I think) - maybe I should consider 12/24 clock issues for other pages, but remove it for this. Sticks thumb in mouth and WAILS.

I will make changes in a day or two - maybe I will get more clues by then.

Thanks again y'all.

I have just uploaded a new version and it should address the problems that started all this. If the e-mail address is never going to be a valid address it should alert. Untill they make TLD's with the likes of .gizmo or .porno - not that I shall be worried.
