That is a very good idea for sending an entire page as included email. What
I needed was simply a table and it was easy to construct inline. However, I
will keep this in mind. Now for two questions:
1 - Can you expand on the "<<<HERE_IS_END"?
2 - Once the form is filled out and the submit button is clicked, is there
any way to capture the code that page WITH the filled in fields so that I
could send that filled-in page?
htmlMimeMail will send an attachment as well as sending html code (or text).
However, the file on the disk is not a filled in page.
