2) Send results: Decide whether or not you want the pop-up form to e-mail you each time a visitor of your website fills in his information.
3) Background color: Type in the color for the background of your pop-up window. You may use hexadecimal code or just type in a common color name.
4) Text to display: Any text you type in this box will show up above the form of your pop-up window. This can be a short sales blurb about your e-zine...
5) Text on confirmation page: The text you enter in this box will be displayed in a small (dynamically generated) 'thank you' page after the user subscribes.
6) Optional image to display: Using this field you can browse your hard drive and upload an image to display on your pop-up window (this is optional).
7) Add Popup: When you click this button the new pop-up window will be created with all the details you entered above.
