Hello 🙂

this forum seems to be full of mail form questions and none of them to my knoledge covers the element I am interested in.

I have followed the tutorial on this site, but I need some help extending the tutorial, I am a complete newbie to php and my actionscript is that of a beginner.

I want to construct is a form in flash with the usual text fields: name: email addresss, plus a contact number then just a comments field.

But once the email reaches me I want to do some formating of the email with php || xhtml, before it reaches me. So inside of the main body of the email I have a nice formatted email saying

name: “persons name”  
email: “someone really nice”  
telephone: “555-555”  
message: “this is the best email contact form ever ;)”

Just so the message is displayed a bit clearer my end.

I am not looking for someone to hold my hand on this but just need pushing in the right direction and is this possible???
