Sorry, Chris...

Dave is working on something for me, but in terms of a generic solution
for all VDN-holders, no-go.  I'm still trying to figure out what's going
on.  Neither the PM3 or that other form-script (forget the name just now)
do what I want it to do:  Which is collect info from four or five separate
fields in a form and mail that info together to one email address.  What I
do get is an empty message (even with Dave's modifications).

I've abandoned using the form for the moment, and installed a mailto:
link.  but I think having a form available that IPs (and users?) could
customize would be a nice value-added bit.

The other problem with those two existing scripts is that the confirmation
message that pops up after the (empty) message is sent includes two links
at the bottom of the page to GUEST HOME and CCN HOME, where we would
prefer a confirmation message specific to our IP, with our own navigation
links.

Nice to know that it's possible to direct mail off-site (with help from
the CCN tech gods), now if I can only get my hands on the data!

PS: Any new IP Cttee meetings planned?

ciao,
Mark
