Ok, Its a form. That has a list of things to fill out.
Name
Email
Aim
MSN
Yahoo
Name what you want here!
and then has a submit button right here.
sso that the person can put their anme and stuff and the Name what you want here! box would be an explanation of what they want. and when they hit submit it would send it to my email. So that I can fullfil their request. |

I believe you would need a CGI script to perform a "send" command without opening a client such as Outlook Express or Thunderbird. I dunno the script needed for send offhand... But I'll look for it |

Shrug... dunno... its a General forum... the same General forum that is across the entire site.
For example...
http://bf2142.levels4you.com/forum.l4y?do=view&t=152354
http://cnc3.levels4you.com/forum.l4y?do=view&t=152354
Same topic... same forum... different template... just because its posted from the Red Faction area of the site doesn't mean it has to be a Red Faction question...
Quote | The General Forum. A good place to post topics that dont belong to any particular game... |
Which is exactly what this thread is... |

I'm pretty sure just straight HTML can mail a form. I know that you don't need PHP. I have no idea what the code is, however. |

But with just HTML and no PHP or CGI, the link would open up an email client application that is installed on your computer So, it just makes it all easier |

HTML is just markup code, it cannot do anything other than format data... and these days CSS does all that anyway...
All HTML can do with forms is, as Sobe says, tell the users email client to open up and get the user to click the send button. Not very nice for the user.
Something on the server to do the mailing automatically is nice and simple. PHP can do it very easily. I seem to recall an example on page 1... for the $message part...
Code |
$message = print_r($_POST,true);
|
Will work quite nicely for taking all data from a form and outputting it in a nice human readable form. Say you have a form with 3 fields on called, name, email and age you'll end up with something like the following for the body of your email.
Code |
Array(
name =>'bob',
email =>'email@address.com',
age =>'47'
);
|
Beauty of this is that you can add/remove fields to your form and the mailing part doesn't need changing at all. |
