Generally the inspector in GoLive allows you to tune an object with static values - image width or form field presets. With a slightly new syntax, upon execution a PHP extension can use the user input rather than fixed values to work with.
Let's look at a field called 'To:' in the inspector:
 |
A value in the inspector will always send the email to this address - here 'you@company.com'.
Furthermore the address can never be read by your visitor (nor a spam bot!) because it is executed and hidden on the server. |
 |
In case your form contains a field called 'destination' and the user has entered 'paul@world.org', then 'paul@world.org' is used in place of the 'To' field.
This is very useful for multiple, yet unknown recipients but take care, other can exploit this feature to send emails on your behalf. |
 |
Finally you can mix both methods. If you offer a popup/drop down menu called 'destination' in your form which lists all email 'initials' and the user has selected 'linda' from this popup, then 'linda@company.com' will receive this email. |
