Help needed with online form

I have developed an HTML online form that is 2 part. the html form itself that
my employees access thru our network, fill out and submit. this is a document
change request.  I have set up two departments selectable by radio button. I
thought that when one is selected, that when the submit button is clicked to
send the email request out, that some how based on which button was checked,
then the email would go to that department. example: one department is "PCBA"
which is myself. One department is "INTERCONNECT" which is Joes department. if
the "INTERCONNECT" radio button was selected, then the email would go to joe.
If the "PCBA" radio button was selected, then the email would come to myself.
I'm not sure how to code this. I can send both my HTML form and Cfmail form to
anybody to review if that would help.

Thank you.:confused;

See code snippet below.

<!--- this is the page with the radio buttons --->
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="sendTo" VALUE="PCBA@myCompany.com">
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="sendTo" VALUE="INTERCONNECT@myCompany.com">

<!--- this is the action page --->
<CFMAIL TO="#FORM.sendTo#" ... >

jdeline,
can I email my data to you for your review. after your email, i spoke with my
IT manager, and we made some changes, but when I click submit, I do not recieve
any emails. I have created two email Dist. lists. both currently with my email
in them.

check the MAIL directory on the server and see if the emails ended up in the UNDEL folder

Do you have the CFMAIL tag wrapped in a CFOUTPUT tag pair?

I am using Dreamweaver and in the split view mode (Design/Preview), I can see
my code but the preview pane is blank. When my email form would not work, I
could see the form in the preview pane. However now that the form works, It
will not show in the preview pane. I know that my IT mgr. moved some tags
around that enable the form to work. Howerver, I think something is still out
of wack because I believe that I should still be able to view this in the
preview mode.
I apologize for this, but I am new to this Cold Fusion stuff, and this is my
first attempt.

Dreamweaver Problem:
That's becoz ,previous, the page might be well-formed but logically incorrect
. Hence ur email form was not working.
Now the case might be that some of the HTML tags are not properly matched or
closed.
Review those tags properly. You then might then be able to preview it in your
Split View Mode.

Cheers:)

ChennaiBhai,
I can't seem to locate any violations.

I am attaching the code for your viewing.
