Could some one please help me with this, if what I am attempting isn’t possible let me know. Seems like this would be a widely needed and used feature for php mail and html forms, but I have not been able to find anyone that is able to make me understand how it works. First of all I am not familiar with php much past hello world, but I can read and follow directions well.
Ok here is what I would like to do, I can create forms on my site, I've been successful in getting data from the forms into MySql, through email, and returned as an attached csv file. What I need however is for the data that is being returned from the forms to be formatted in the same way as it is on the site, I want to see all the text boxes and input fields filled with the user info just the way the form looks on the website. I am really not particular as to what way they get sent( as attached file or just through the email or even somehow retrieving the data from mysql and sending it to the secretaries desk so she can print and file the forms.)
Like I said, it seems like this would be a big need for people. Right now no matter what i tried I get the email as a txt file in a single file format with no regard for the table format that the website shows, for some forms this is fine but when you have a table with 4 columns and several rows of user inputted data it is completely useless like that. I have searched and searched and have not been able to find an answer to this although I have found a couple of other people asking about it. If this is something that just can’t be done or if there is a better way to do it please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Jim
