Newsletter Mailinglist signup
Does anyone know where or have a simply explained way I can add a small "signup box" for the LSQL newsletter and/or mailing list on my front page?

I'd like the user to have the option to subscribe/unsubscribe to either the mailinglist, newsletter or both.

I noticed a very similar box on the left bottom of http://gossamer-threads.com/...sql/testimonials.htm. I would just like this to have the option for the newsletter also.

Thanks in advance Smile

Yea, copy the HTML codes in the output from the subscribe.cgi script. Look for the FORM anchors (<form action="" method=""></form>).

Don't know how to copy the HTML codes? Either use a text editor to open your "subscribe" template files, or execute the subscribe.cgi via your web browser, go to View -> Page Source (Netscape) or View -> Source (IE).

Buh Bye!

Cheers,
Me

Try this.

<form action="http://www.your_site.com/cgi-bin/subscribe.cgi" method="POST">

<select name="action"><option value="subscribe">Subscribe

<option value="unsubscribe">Unsubscribe</select>

<font size="2">Name:</font>

<input name="name" size=15>

<font size="2">Email:</font>

<input name="email" size=20>

<input type="submit" value="Subscribe to our Monthly Newsletter" >

</form>
