Another one that I use is PHPFormMail (http://www.boaddrink.com/) which started as a PHP version of the FormMail.pl program of yester-language...

Very simple to set up, you place the PHP file somewhere on your serer, adjust a few variables in there (very easy with the docs) and you are set to go.

You can then use it with mutlitple forms all over your site. In the form you set HIDDEN fields to command it. Note though, that people will be able to get your e-mail address from viewing your page source code.

A work around to this that I have used, is in the actual PHP file, at the beginning right below all the comments, add $_POST['recipient']="your@email.add"; to hard code in your e-mail address, then you don't have to include it on your form.

I've never done that in PHP, myself, but this looks like a good tutorial:

Plus they use the word "smattering." Laughing out loud

Put this in a file called mail.php
and remember to changethe $to variable to show your email

  <!-- you can insert all the html you want around the php -->
  <?
  $name=$_POST['name'];
  $email=$_POST['email'];
  $comments=$_POST['comments'];
  $to="your e-mail here";
  $subject="comments from your website";
 $message="$name just sent you an email from the form on your website. They said:\n$comments\n\nTheir e-mail address was: $email";
  if(mail($to," $subject",$message,"From: $email\n ")) {
  echo "Thank you $name for your comments.";
  } else {
  echo "There was a problem sending the comments.<br> Please check that you filled in the form correctly.";
  }
  ?>
  <!-- you can put html here too -->
  

'

and then this is the form for you to put anywhere you want

  
  <form action="mail.php" method="post">
  Your Name: <input type="text" name="name">
  your E-mail: <input type="text" name = "email"><br>
  Comments<br>
  <textarea name="comments"></textarea><br><br>
  <input type="submit" value="Send">
  </form>
  

'

$to="admin@easysig.info";
$subject="EasySig Contact Form";
$message="$name just sent you an email from the form on your website. They said:\n$comments\n\nTheir e-mail address was: $email"/n/n$name has rated EasySig with "$rating";
if(mail($to," $subject",$message,"From: $email\n ")) {
echo "Thank you $name for your comments.";
} else {
echo "There was a problem sending the comments. Please check that you filled in the form correctly.";
}
?>

Hi, it still doesn't work.

Here is the file coding again:

<?
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$comments=$_POST['comments'];
$rating=$_POST['rating'];
$to="admin@easysig.info";
$subject="EasySig Contact Form";
$message="$name just sent you an email from the form on your website. They said:\n$comments\n\nTheir e-mail address was: $email"/n/n$name has rated EasySig with a rating of $rating;
if(mail($to," $subject",$message,"From: $email\n ")) {
echo "Thank you $name for your comments.";
} else {
echo "There was a problem sending the comments. Please check that you filled in the form correctly.";
}
?>

After an $email variable, there's a " mark for some reason. Please help me.. Sad

I don't know what the problem is..
