Configuring Your FrontPage Forms to Use Our Form Mailer

2. Right-click your form, and then select Form Properties.
3. Select Send to other.
4. Click Options.
5. In the Action field, enter coolexample.com/gdform.php, where coolexample.com is your hosting account's primary domain name.
6. Click OK.
7. Click Advanced.
