    Thanks for the help. It looks like Mike Challis’ from handles the redirect, but you were right – it’s using JS to do it. So, while it does support a redirect, it’s not really using the action attribute for the form submission.

    (The Secure Accessible Contact Form documentation was out of date and it didn’t seem to have an admin. I’ll have to dig through the code to see if it functions without JavaScript.)

    So, I’m still looking… 🙂

    While I’m very comfortable using Ajax, it’s not a complete solution. There are still some folks out there who disable JavaScript, so I’d like to support graceful degradation at the very least.

    I guess the point of frustration comes from the fact that this is really, very basic web technology and I’m a bit disappointed that WordPress doesn’t seem to support web functionality that’s been around for literally decades now.

    Thanks for the reply. I have tried a few plugins, but all of them seem to follow the same pattern of posting back to the current page or using an AJax solution.

    I’m curious that if there is a plugin out there that does offer this functionality, do you know which ones? Also, why would a plugin have functionality that couldn’t be coded by hand in the native programming language?
