Submission form

is98

hello, i'm trying desperatly to figure out how to have a form , with text fields, be filled by a user, then by clicking on submit, have my php code take that and email it to me.

what i do now, is when clicking on the submit button, have the page load with a post=add type thing but then i realize my values filled in are dumped. not there.

if a SIMPLE php can be shown i would appriciate it very VERY much =) as time is of the essance.

one idea i thought of is having all the fields that are filled, put into a url as "?NAME=test" parameters, then having one "EVENT=add" param, that will then take the info and handle it like that? is there something easier?

<?
if (isset($send))
{
$to  = "Whom Ever <whomever@wherever.com>";

$subject = "Auto Form";

$message = "
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
any html formatting you want and you place $variables from form here also
</body>
</html>
";

$headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";

$headers .= "From: You <you@you.com>\r\n";
$headers .= "Cc: [email]notyou@you.com[/email]\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
<br><br><center><font size=3><b>Thank You, You're information has been submitted</b></font></center>
<?
}
else
{
?>
spit out form
<?
}
?>

cooool. thanks. i think i got that part, but i seem to be missing how to get the text from a text field, or anything else into this form on the click of a submit buton (then the email is sent to me) with info they fill in =/

ok, where i put "spit out form", put this:

of course you can have as many fields as you want, then in the html part where message = "block of html code", you can simply do this:

$message = "
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
First Name: $first_name<br>
Last Name: $last_name<br>
Email Address: $email_address
</body>
</html>
";
