topb -

I just learned how to do this -- here is what someone sent me. You have
to
create two pages, an html page with the form and a php page to direct the
results -- that is, if I understand what is going on correctly. At any
rate, it
works!

I attached the code but am not sure if it will come over correctly, since
this
program replaces some of the tags. Send me an email at
daveficks (AT) justmysites (DOT) com and I'll forward the attachment to you that
explains
this.

Below is a simple PHP email example. Two files are created, form.html
which
holds a simple email submission form
and email.php which is the page that gets processed when the form is
submitted.

In the email.php file, you'll notice we set the $msg variable = to some
text
and $email_address. PHP can
reference any submitted form field from the previos page (in this case
"email_address") on the
processing page as $VARIABLE_NAME. So what we are doing is including the
email
address in the message we
are sending to whomever we are sending it to!

The best way to get this is to play around a bit and see the results.
Either
way, PHP is a much better
solution than legacy CGIs for doing this!

Let me know if I can help!

----- form.html ----
form action="email.php" method="post"
b>Email Address:</b
input type="text" name="email_address" size="30" maxlength="75"
input type="submit" value="Submit"
/form



---- email.php ----
?php

$to = "whoever (AT) wherever (DOT) com";

$subj = "your subject";

$msg = "your message\n\n".$email_address;

$from = "From: address (AT) domain (DOT) name (whoever you want it to come from)";

mail($to,$subj,$msg,$from);

?
