    Thats a contact form which uses the mail() function.

    How will this enable

    That veryone else can view it.
    He needs a regular script made which inserts the data into an SQL database and then display the data on a different page.

    Name
    Info
    Info2
    Info3
    -----------
    Name
    Info
    Info2
    Info3
    -----------
    Name
    Info

    Name
    Info
    Info2

    Name

    Okay, I just tested this on my host, but I'm half asleep and I don't know if it'll work for you... it's also only half of the code (it'll do the database portion, but you won't see anything)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------

    First log into your host and make a database, write down the name. Then create a table in that database, with these settings:



    and fill it with these values:



    You should now have a database name, a username, a password, and a table name.

    form.html
    Code:
    <form action="processor.php" method="post">
    First Name: <input type="text" name="first"><br />
    Last Name: <input type="text" name="last"><br />
    Hometown: <input type="text" name="home"><br />
    Status: <input type="text" name="status"><br />
    Grade: <select name="grade">
    <option></option>
    <option>7</option>
    <option>8</option>
    <option>9</option>
    <option>10</option>
    <option>11</option>
    <option>12</option>
    <option>NA</option>
    </select><br />
    School: <input type="text" name="school"><br />
    Sex: <select name="sex">
    <option>M</option>
    <option>F</option>
    </select><br />
    Favourite Town: <input type="text" name="town"><br />
    Favourite Color: <input type="text" name="color"><br />
    Best Friend(s): <input type="text" name="friends"><br />
    Pets: <input type="text" name="pets"><br />
    Siblings: <input type="text" name="siblings"> <br />
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset">
    </form>
    processor.php

    mysql_query($query);

    #-------------------Close the database - Important!----------------- 
    mysql_close($sqldb);
    ?>
    rest coming soon, or someone else can write it. G'night
