We want our customers to go through a registration process. So the standalone would open a url to a form on our web site. The only reason we're going to a web form instead of using a form in the application is because we want an email message sent to us upon submitting the information. I've explored Sarah's smtp library for sending email from Rev, which I'm sure is great, but for some reason I can't get it to work. I can't get it to connect to our smtp server. Anyway, that's a different topic.

So my main question is, can Rev send data to a web form like this in such a way that whatever fields we specify will be populated when the browser/form opens? Not sure if something like this is even possible. I haven't done enough web development to know. Is some special JavaScript required to accomplish this? In thinking this through a little more, if we have a web form that's already set up to send an email, can't I take advantage of that in Rev by creating my own form and then sending the data straight to the cgi behind the form? Once again, I haven't done much web dev, so I may not even know what I'm talking about. :-)

If anyone can help or can offer any other suggestions for how to accomplish something similar, it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
