One Button, Multiple Actions

[dennco4]

Is there a way to create a form that when a user hits the submit buton it will update a mysql database and e-mail the information? I have the form updating just fine, but I need it to e-mail the updated information out as well. I was wondering if someone knew how to do this. I have Dreamweaver MX. Any ideas?
Thanks for all the help.

This faq770-3089 shows you how to create a session of the newly entered record, which in turn you can use to create an email page.

Hope it helps...

General idea.
Form submits its fields to the page specified in action attr. (<FORM... ... action='page.asp'>)

in this page.asp you should have a procedures for:
updating your records &
sending an email

You can type both procedures by yourself or let DWMX generate the code.
I'd enclose email sending code into a separate sub -
SUB Send_email()
............
code is here
.........
END SUB

and put:

Call Send_email

after your updating/inserting code

Be aware - DWMX may create pretty obscure code and submit page onto itself.
Sometimes it's worth doing some things by hand.
