Form Tutorial

[SamMaddock]

Back to the form handler...

Im creating a DJs message form, and perhaps there is a way or sending this infomation to a blank empty page instead. If so, can you send me the code and let me know if i need to change persmissions to the page im sending it to...

[splintercell!]

you have to write it to a database first

[Mentor]

indeed, youd want to probly write to a flat file database, wich is a little more work, for after adding to the db u then need to use a few functions to get the data back out again "/ i may ad a tutoral on that when i get time

I need it so that the application is sent from the email they typed in. Anyone?

[Mentor]

Thats easy enogh
in the form function
mail("[email protected]", $subject, $messig);

you wnat to ad the from attrubuted

$from = "From: EMAIL \r\n";

Then we want to replace the email with the email varibleentered so

$from = "From: ".$email." \r\n";

Then change the final function for form to this, so the from attribute is added

mail("[email protected]", $subject, $messig, $from);


In final

$from = "From: ".$email." \r\n";
mail("[email protected]", $subject, $messig, $from);

ps. make sure $email contains the email varible they eneter
