Hello,
I'm testing to see if we can insert web-to-lead code into our HTML templates. We want to allow users to enter and submit information that will further qualify them.
So far the form does not seem to submit properly from within a mail client. Clicking submit calls the salesforce.com servlet, but you are not sent to the redirect URL and the data does not populate to salesforce. The same code used within a browser is fine.
I've read that email clients may require the 'method=get' attribute instead of 'method=post', but other than that I can't figure out why it's not working. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Andrew
