Auto Reply when form is received

I've been having a lot of problems with my forms. Im finding that those who do not have at least Abobe 8 are having difficutly filling out our form. Also, those who have an internet provider e-mail can seem to complete the forms. They are hitting submit and they think the form is going through. They don realize they are just saving it to their system. I want to creat an automatic reply when the form has been sent successfully.

Is there a way to make that happen.

You can if you set up the form to submit to a web server, which does the job of processing the submission, sending it by email (or not) and providing a conformation response back to the user.

The problem you're experiencing is one of the many limitations of relying on the client to send the email with the data/pdf attached.
