Attaching a Excel form through php mail

rosy

Hi,
I have a php form in that i have a combo box, having values yes or no to choose from. If i choose yes, an excel form should be opened and allow the user to fill the excel form. The filled form should be sent as an attachment to some recipients. and it should redirect the user to the same php form to enter other details.

Do i need to create any html or php form based on the excel form? or how can i code this.Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Its not about Excel form, Actually i havent mentioned properly, sorry for the confusion.( I got a form in Excel sheet having some information to fill up. so i think i need to create a html/php form exactly as excel sheet form) .
I have a php form which has combo box containing No and Yes values the user needs to select. If the user selects Yes, it should redirect or open a form(html or php). And the user should fill up the form and press submit button. after the user hits submit button, i would like to send the form to some recipient. and at the same time it should be closed and redirect to the form the user working on.
do i need to open the form in a seperate window using javascript?
How do i need to send the form as attachment through mail?
Do i need to create the form in html?
How can i send the form with details through php mail.
I got simple php mail program which is working fine for me.
Please help me.
Thanks.

1 - Post using paragraphs
-->Your second post is a headache to read

2 - Why do you even need excel?
-->Just recreate the form in html and have php mail the data and use a header redirect
---[mail]
---[redirect]
---[php form mailer]

I have created a html form and it has submit button.
After hitting the submit button, my html form is sent as attachment through php mail.
Is it possible to send the same form or i can only send the data through mail function?
My question is if i have the html file stored in my computer i can give the filename as attachment, but i would like to send the current form without saving in my computer in a particular location. Is it possible to send the whole form or do i need to insert the html form data in a table .
I dont have the idea how to send the html request form to some recipient.
How i can do it. will you please giude me step by step?
Thanks.

Hi,
Actually i searched in this topic and found how to make it. Using PHP to send the contents of a form to a specified e-mail address .
I thought i could send the whole exact form thats why i searched for and understood its not possible to send the exact form instead i can send the data through mail.

Thanks.
