Sharepoint Contact form web parts

[paul_1989]

I've been trying to create a contact form web part on a sharepoint site I've been working on but hit a few walls (I'm using the sharepoint 2010 beta).

 

It's my first sharepoint site so I'm probably missing something simple but I've tried using the HTML Form web part, then editing the code to add the different form parts I want on (Name, E-mail address, Subject, Message etc). Once I click save it seems to work perfectly fine, but when I go to a different page then come back to the one with the form on it has completely disappeared and wiped everything off the page with it!!! Then on top of that when I try and click edit page the loading icon comes up but never actually loads to a point where I can edit.

 

After a couple of attempts I thought I'd just try finding a web part that I could download to use but there doesn't seem to be one anywhere (at least not a free one anyway).

 

So basically does anyone have any ideas? or a web part that they use for the same thing that I could use?

Sounds like you might have a bit of bad/incorrect HTML code in there.

 

That can sometimes cause a page to be blank or not load correctly.

I've managed to play around with it and get it to stop disappearing now. For some reason it didn't like it when i used anything to do with "

" but now I can't seem to get it to actually send the e-mail when the send button is pressed.

E-mail:

Have I missed something? (As you can probably guess I'm not too clued up on this >.< )

Paul,

Could you not use a custom list to do this? Thats how I have done it before.
