PHP form to mail tutorial

Form to mail

Would you like to get on your email all the information included in a form?

• First of all you need a form, as for example the one in the table:

form.html

<FORM ACTION="formtomail.php" METHOD=post><!-- Your fields here --> <INPUT TYPE=submit value="Submit"> </FORM>

The Form Action must be directed to the PHP script bellow.

• Second: you need the php script (copy the information in the table to a text file
and save the file as "formtomail.php" in your server).

formtomail.php

<? if ($_POST){       // posted information is added to variable message       $message="";       foreach ($_POST as $formfieldname => $formfieldvalue){             $message.="$formfieldname \n $formfieldvalue\n\n";     //        }      // send email with information from the form to       mail("webmaster@mysite.com","Form to Mail", $message,"From: <webmaster@mysite.com>\nContent-Type: text/plain");       print "The information has been send to webmaster"; }else{       print "No information has been posted"; } ?>

You need to customize the script: substitute red text in the script by your email.

This scripts assumes you have no restrictions to use mail commnad.
