 IMAIL® LIST HOMEPAGE CODE
|
| HTML Code to Create IMail® List Forms |
| Use this HTML code to add an IMail® List Homepage to your web site. To see how the code displays, click here. To see a demonstration of the code live on the Web, click here. |
| Instructions |
| Copy/paste the code for the form you want to use onto your web page. Be sure to change the code in blue italic to the correct information for your list (see examples below) before you save/upload your web page. If you are using a page-building program such as GoLive® or FrontPage®, you must first switch to Source or HTML view, then paste the code onto the page. When using FrontPage®, be careful not to accidentally add extraneous code to the form(s) when switching to Preview mode. FrontPage® often does this automatically. If this happens, you will need to remove the code FrontPage® added before saving/uploading or the form(s) will not work. |
| Upload the form's custom SuccessPage and/or ErrorPage, if used, to your account's free web space using FTP. FTP instructions, including download links for several FTP programs, can be found at http://webhelps.com/ftp-instructions.shtml. Hidden form fields for both custom pages are included in all the forms below. If you do not want to use custom success/error pages, simply remove the applicable field(s) from the form, and default success/error page(s) will display. |
| Examples |
- SuccessPage
Page on your site you want people to go to after hitting the [Submit] button, such as SubscriptionThanks.html
- ErrorPage
Page on your site you want people to go to if they did not enter a required field, or did not enter a correctly formatted email address, such as SubscriptionError.html. [See Optional Error Page Code below]
- ListDomain
The domain your list uses, such as webhelps.com, list.yourdomain.com, yourdomain.net
- ListName
The name of your list, such as CandyRecipes, ClientNewsletter
- AccountName
The name of your WebHelps account (a/k/a WebHelps UserName)
- ListPassword
Your list's password, if applicable, such as WeR4chocolate, PeanutClusters4U (case-sensitive) |
| Make changes to the following code at your own risk. If you make any changes to a form's code, we do not guarantee the form will work. Should you need us to troubleshoot a non-working form to which you have made code changes, you will be charged a service fee. |
