Opt in

[eyenest]

I was wondering if anyone could help with the steps for creating an Opt in option. So far I figured out that I need to create a data base to import the txt data I have. After that I'm not sure. I'm looking to put a little square box in the top right hand corner of my page.

Any Ideas or information is greatly appreciate
Thank You

Opt in to what? A mailing List? Give us some more info here. And a link to your site.

Sorry, ah yes opt in for a mailing list. I was wondering how this can be done and software that might make it easier. Joomla, can that help with the task.

Like I said before I would like to have this option in a small table on all my pages on the top right hand side.

Thanks for you reply.

Yes, you should be able to add little form asking for the email address and when the user clicks submit, it goes to the full sign up form. I use poMMo (http://pommo.org/Main_Page) on one of my sites and it comes with a little sign up box.

Here's what the code looks like:
<div id="subscribeForm">
<form method="post" action="http://mysite.com/pommo/user/subscribe.php">

<fieldset>
<legend>Subscribe To Updates</legend>
<div>
<label for="email">Your Email:</label>
<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="60" name="Email" id="email" />
</div>
</fieldset>

<div class="buttons">
<input type="submit" value="Subscribe" />
</div>

</form>
</div>
